I correspondent of the Macon (G

A correspondent of the Macon (Ga }
Telegraph and Messenger disposes very
summarily and conclusively of the
statement made in some of the Radi-
cal papers accusing ex-President
Davis of cruelty to prisoners during
the war. He merely quoted that in
response to q resolution of the House
of Representatives calling upon the
Secretary of War for the number of
prisoners of either side held. and that
died during the war, he made the fol-
lowing report: Number of Union
prisoners South, 2G0, ,940; died, %, 596.
Number of Confederate prisoners
North, 200. 900; died, 90 ,456.
From this report made by the Secre-
tary of War, from the official records
in his possession, it will be seen that
while two federal prisoners in the
South died out of every twenty, two
out of every fifteen of Confederate
prisoners in northern prisons died. In
the north the mortality should have
been much less, though it was really
much greater than in the south. The
federal authorities had or could easily
obtain skillful physicians, abundant
ald suitable clothing and food, and
every kind of medicine needed in the
treatment of disease. They had also
territory enough to enable them to
select the healthiest locations for their
prisons. In the south the case was
widely different. The services ofevery
skillful physician, nay of every pre-
tender to a knowledge of medicine,
were needed in the field and in the
hospital, our own soldiers were ragged
and half starved; the federal blockade
rendered it impossible to procure an
adequate supply OF drugs; and our
limited and weakly guarded territory
rendered it necessary to place the
prisoners where they would be most
secure against the raiding attacks of
the enemy.

STATE EMKGRATION.

In the course of the long editorial on
emigration to Virginia, in the New York
Verld, occurs the extract printed below,
which is equally applicable to many 9TH
er States. Indeed there are many places
in our own State and on the Eastern
Shore where the investment of small
monied capital and triple amount of
labor capital would fructify numerous
sterile tracts and bring wealth to the
worker thereof. There is considerable
waste land in this State and Peninsula
which, if properly cultivated. would en-.
rich the owners and increase the value
and extent of the productive property
of the State. The extract is as follows:
"The people of Virginia have their pc
culiarities, to which the immigrant must
accommodate himself, of course, Just as
he would have to do in going into any
other strange country. But they are a
generous, kindly people. proverbially
hosn;table, and frank and upright in
dealing. They will eagerly welcome i'm.
migration, for they are perishing for
naed Of it. Always free-handed and not
o;ven to economical ways, they are now
o1tremely poor, and must continue so
until they can divide up their immense
+racts Of land, which they have no capi.
tai to improve, and which are too un.
wieldy to be thriftily managed, into
smaller holdings, and find industrious
farmers to buy these partitioned tracts
rnd make them productive. Nirginian
leaders Of opinion thoroughly rnder.
stand this condition Of things, and q,
preciate the fact that to renovate the
agriculture of the State great influx oi
capital Is needed, and can be had only
IN one way; by getting the small capi
talists to come into the State, buy lands
and improve them.
With the development Of the agricul
ture of Virginia the development of hel
manufacturing resources will begin, and
this again will stimulate the opening Of
her mines. But the agricultural growth
must precede the others, and it is not
by inviting foreign capital to invest ir
Old Dominion steamship lines and Kan
awha canals that Virginia can affair
prosperity. The capitalist whom Viz
ginia needs is the man who, for ever!
800 he invests in the purchase of tn,
soil. invests $500 in labor for the devel
opment of its products and the augmen
tation OF its productiveness.
