Upon this the Petersburg Index says:
We find the above paragraph in the Washington
Union, of Tuesday evening, and take it for granted
that the editor speaks from the record.
What commentary these simple, severe statistics
present the loyal fasehoods Of Congressional bum
combe and Harper's journal Of Civil and lpoltical
Lesation.
After all the "barbarities,' Of Andersonville and
Salisbury; after all the hired perjury with which Wirz
murdered with all the unbounded appliances for
health comfort and which the humane, Christian,
enlightened and cylised North possessed with all the
utterly infamous character of Washington official tes
timony where "rebels Y were concerned; with every
motive for with constant practice OF, and unblnshng
notoriety in classifying records suit their case, what
are the facts !?
Out of 26l coo Union prisoners, %, 800 died Out
Of 5000 Confederate prisoners, 26,5OO died. The
Union prisoners exceeded the Confederate prisoners

fell below those Of Confederate prisoners six thousand
Two Yankee prisoners died out Of every twenty

\ CURIOUS Law SUIT-The opinions OF
Chief Justice Jay, with respect to the Constl-
tuition OF the United States, have become the
subject of litigation in New York court A
magazine writer alleged in 1864 that Chlet
Justice Jay, who was one OF the trainers OF
the Constitution and CO worker with Nladi.
son and Hamilton on the The Federallst,
vas neyera hearty supporter OF that lnstru-
ment as propounde6.
This was denied by ineal descendant OF
the Chief Justice, Mr.. John Jay, in a pub
lished card which charged the party asperslng
his ancestors devotion to the Constitution,
with being himself an opponent of the Federal
Government and in sympathy with the rebel
lion.
Upon this action was brought, and Mr.. Jay,
the defendant, is ask to produce before the
court certain letters OF his ancestor new In his
possession, written by the Chief Justice, it is
reported between l776 and l779. As that Is
period O! ten years before the adoption OF the
Constitution, we do not see how such letters
can vndicate the plaintiff, for they might be
all he alleges, and the Chief Justice might
have changed his views upon the subjects
treated Of in the Constitution before its adop-
lon.- WASH Chron
