THE DEAD AT ANDERsoNv1LnE. The
Louisville Courier says it has upon its
table a pamphlet of seventy-four
pages, containing the list of Union
dead at Andersonville. It is sad
catalogue, and as we glance through
its mournful pages we cannot choke
down en execration at the thought
that at the very time these men were
passing away by hundreds daily, the
Confederate Government was abso-
lutely on its knees begging for an ex-
change of prisoners, and was con-
stantly denied That these men now
rest in far-of. and in many cases un-
marked graves, is fairly chargeable
upon those who so heartlessly reject
ed the proposition of the Confederate
Government for a full and fair ex-
change" g. e.,

Our village, on last Saturday night,
was the scene of disgraceful dis
turbance. Some soldiers belonging
to the garrison went through the
principal streets, nooting and shout
ing and firing arms, to the great
alarm of the women and children.
They set fire to the house of a woman
named Kate Lewis. a courtezan, and
to the building used as school-room
for the freed people. Great fears
were entertained that they would set
fire to the town, and, indeed, We mar
rowl- escaped that danger, for, had
the Masonic Hall, which stands con-
tiguous to the old school-rocna,
caught, the principal part Of the
buildings on the public square could
not have been saved. The spite of
the soldiers seemed directed especial
ly to the freed people, several of
whom were beaten quite severely,

WASHINGTON, April Is.
The following memorial was presented in
the House yesterday:
To the Honoabls the House Of Representatives Of the
Gated States Of Annsrica:
Your memorial humbly represents that in
common with the loyal people of the repub-
lie, he has been anxiously waiting for justice
to be done the soldiers Of the Union army,
particularly those who have been disabled,
and the parents, widows and orphans of those
who have been lost. Resolutions of thanks
and proclamations Of recognition may be SUN
cient for those whose gamers are well filed,
but it is notorious fact that the great mass
of the ranks of the army were not from the
high in civil life, of those rejoicing in wealth
and luxury, and the nation was saved by the
agony, the privations, the tears and the blood
OF those whoapparently had the least interest,"
in its preservation. Declarations that the
debt We owe The soldieTfs one the nation can
never pey, seems SO to paralyze the Govern
ment, that no successful attempt hasYet been
madeto pay it, and the obligation is looked
upon as of such magnitude, that it is partially
Ignored It's matter of regret that the de-
partments of the Government are almost
sealed against the applications of the living
heroes Of the age, and too often when the
hmping clipple and the empty sleeve ask the
privilege of an honest livelihood, they are
turned away as the wandering mendicant or
the insolvent beggsr on the highways and
street corners Those whom the nation should
delight to honor, are compelled to beg for
their daily bread. Should we do less for our
soldiers than rebel communities, who periled
everything, and find in the struggle the people
of Florida in their Legislature few months
ago, made a liberal appropriation for the
support of disabled soldiers, widows and
orphans, graduating the amounts only by the
wants Of the needy. Shall we fail to do as
much promptly and cheerfully. The mere
pittance of eight dollars per month was fixed
when the nation was poor, and that sum
would purchase more than double the neces-
saries Of life then than now. The
faith of the republic was pledged in
advance to the wounded soldier and
sailor, the widow and the orphan. Let it
be redeemed, SO that gratitude may be
shown in deeds and not in empty words only
Is it asking too much that while eight dollars
was formerly paid twenty should be gieea
now, and that the pension laws may be re-
modified that the pensioner can obtain his
bounty with less OF annoyance and perplexi
II than Is now the case. Four years of war
clearly show that the Almighty will be
avenged on nations for great oficnses. May
we not provoke this indignation by commit.
ting the basest of crimes, ingratitude to those
who saved the nations life?
