Rebel Prisons s-The Truth Of His
tory.

"Walt Whitman, the poets whose
services - . volunteer nurse in the
ieId and army hospitals ia and around
Washington during the civil val are not
forgotten BY the country at large, or the
soldiers lie attended, has IN press val
liable volume Of "memoranda Of the
var" 1t is simply . transcript,os Of
notes taken 1t the time, and gives in the
powerful and picturesque prose Of which
Mr. " hitmau is master, the scenes and
circumstances of which be was an eye
witness or connected With. In advance
portions of this work tie following par.
agraph appears. 1t SO vigorously de-
lineates the condition Of our men re-
turning from Andersonville and other
prison pens that it should be widely
circulated. The date is early in 1865 !:
"Ths released prisoners of war are
now coming up from the Southern
prisons. have seen number Of them
The sight is worse than any sight OF
battle fields or any collections of
wounded, even the bloodiest. There
was ias . sampler one large boat load
of several hundred brought about the
25th to Annapolis, and out of the whole
number only three individuals we're able
TO walk from the boat. The rest were
carried ashore and laid down IN one
place or another. Can those be men
those little livid- brown, ash-streaked,
monkey looking drswfs Are they
really not mummied, dwindled corpse.
They lay there, most Of them, quite
still, but with horrible look in their
eyes and skinny lips, often with not
enough flesh on their lips to cover their
teeth. Probably no more appalling
sight vac ever seen on this earth.-
There are deeds, crimes, that may be
forgiven, but this is not among Them.
1t sleeps its perpetrators in blackest,
escapeless, endless damnation. Over
Sc, 600 have been compelled to die the
death of starvation. Reader, did you
ever try to reahzs what starvation &C.
tually is, iu those prisons and in land
of plenty
"An indescribable mesnness, tyranny,
aggravating course of insults, almost
incredible, was evidently the rule Of
treatment through all the Southern
military prisons. The dead there are not
to be pitied as much as some Of the liv-
ing that come from there-if they can
be called living; many Ct them are
mentally lmbecilc, and will never recu-
perate"
Mr.. Whitman's description has all
the more value from the fact that it is
that of competent critic and observer.
and that since the above was written
its author has been pronounced in favor
of amnesty and reunion. There is a
cloud Of witnesses who speak as from
the grave. Mr.. DAVIS and his Confed-
crate associates will find that auoacity
will not overthrow the facts. Truly,
Whitnan's description shows that the
men be saw came from "out the jaws Of
death out of the gates of hell"

A Great National Work.

The Centennial History OF the United
States, from the discovery Of the Amer
ican Continent to the close Of the Firsi
Century of .7mericaa independence. By
James D. .HcCd6s, .4uthor of".4 Man
ual of General History" "Me Great
Repubiic," Etc, Etc.
There has long been a great and uni
versally-felt want Of a History of tue
Uni,ed States suitable for general use.
This want is now being supplied BY The
National Publishing Co., of Philadel-
phla, who have issued handsome vol
ume, styled "The Centennial History OF
the United S,ates," by James ID.
McCabe, a we'll known historica writer.
This work will, undoubtedly. take rank
as the Standard History of the United
States. 1t is no dry mass of details
no bomb mbastic effort to infame the na-
,ional pride, but IS clear, vivid and
brilliant narrative of our history, from
the discovery of the American Continent
down to the present time. 1t traces
the evidences of that mysterious race,
the first occupants Of our country, aud
gives a most interesting accouat of the
Indians Of North America, from the
time of the coming of the white men.
The voyages of Columbus, the explora-
tions of the different nations of Europe
and the final occupation and conquest Of
the land by England, are told with
graphic power.
Every step of our colonial history is
traced with patient fidelity, and the
sources of those Soble, and We trust,
enduring institutions which have made
our country free and great, are shown
With remarkable elearness. The causes
of our great struggle for Independence
are told with logical force and ability
unsurpassed in any work of the day.
Then follows clear and succinct ac-
count of the formation of the Federal
Constitution; the establishment of the
Union the course of affairs until the
breaking out of the Second War with
England; and full and comprehensive
account Of that war and its results.
The events Of our career from the close
Of that contest TO the commencement Of
the Civil War, follow in their order.
The history of the Civil War is related
with intense vigor, and with strict e.
deity to truth. The suthor pleads the
cause of no party or section. He states
facts, points out the lessons which they
teach. and appealing to neither passion
nor political feeling, trusts to the sooc
sense Of his countrymen to sustain his
views. The book contains an Appendix,
giving an account of the approaching
Centennial Exhibition. 1t is comprised
in one large, handsome octave volume Of
925 psges, and contains 442 fine engrav-
ings on steel and wood Of historical per
sonages ard scenes. The price is so
low that all can aifordto purchase copy.
and each subscriber is P, esented With a
superb lithogrsphic engraving Of the
Centennial Exhibition Buildings and
Grounds. tits sold by subscription only.

Hammefd Creating q Panic.
The Sunday, Capital, pub.,shsd at WASH
ington, says: Brother Hammond. if he
didn't stir up revival, certainly was sue
cessful in stirring W 4 row in the govern
! inent printing citice last week that made
things lively in the yellow washed pile for
half day. Hammond asked the superin-
iendent for permission TO enter the working
rooms and pray, and exhort othsrs to follow
his example. This was refused, as it would
create confusion and prevent work. lie
then asked to he permitted to pray IN the
hallway. r.
..well, If you've got praying DIT on you
pray f,y all means, but draw it mild" said
the superintendent, wearied by his impo,-
tunify.
Hammond went into the hall and began
to oratc on that Charming and pleasant par
agraph, "Dcpart We cursed into everlasting
hell fre." According to the most approv-
ed style Of preachers he elevated his voice
on the last word till the echo Of 'sfirr''
sounded like death warrant throughou,
the building. With wall Of lamenlatipn
ami woe the female employees, catching up
the alarm, leaped from their work and rush
ed ont Of doors in mixed up condition OF
fear, confusion and loveliness, into the hall,
where the revlvalist stood preaching the
word. He thought their sudden stampede
was due 10 the power of his elcquence and
Q desire to hear his sermon.
"Thai's right, that's right" he cried.
"Thsi's how like to see it. likc to see
you come booming along like Levi from his
country tables, like Saul from his war horse,
like honey from the bees Of Bybla like.
At this moment fresh stream Of frighten-
ed printers struck the a>tonisn-d crowd in
the back. and the two combined went over
the revivalist like . swollen stream over .
sand bar. The Astonished divine was struck
nmb with awe at the violence Of their re-
vival, and carried along under their feet the
length Of the hallway with such force that
all the revival was crushed out of him, and
BY the time he fell down two fights oi
stairs he hardly thought it worth while to
continue his prayers for that day, and leav
ing the printing ONCE Ia quiet itself the
best way it could, took the first train for the
other end of the city.
