ton, and no satisfactory results were OBJ
tanned. ALI the reasons heretofore given
are subsidiary and lead up to the one
reason in the mind of the United States
government against the exchange OF
prisoners.
1t vas set forth in General Grants re-
ply OF April /, 1864. in which he forbade
General Butler Ito take any step ny
which another able bodied man should
be exchanged till further orders from
him.
Taken in connection with his order to
General Butler heretofore referred to-. II
was the enforcement OF the idea Of MILL
tary necessity-that last plea of military
despots all over the world. Here was the
wisdom and cunning of BISMARCK, al
lied to the utter disregard of human uie
or suffe, ing. which characterized many OF
the generals of the dark ages Hero was
the policy of the Spanish inqu, sition to
murder the innocent rather than give
equal advantage to the enemy.
Mr.. Lincoln, in his great heart, was
ready to do justice to friehd and Toe
alike, but BACK of him stood Phillip ii OF
by every act, at Is better 10 have every
union soldier die in PRISON than TO turn
loose an equal number OF Confederate
prisoners.
This military necessity grew out OF the
fact thar whereas the south had enlisted
III uCT artHltS OOutu wv SululoTs, tHO HoAsh
only had 2, rs, 304 soldiers on her rolls.
Search the annals of warfare from the
days of Xenophon down to this, and
there cannot be found one instance where
an army numerically four times as strong
as its enemy has deliberately allowed Its
own soldiers to die in prison rather than
liberate an equal nun bsr OF the captured.
Without any regard to the treatment OF
prisoners by either side during the war,
and 1t was bad enough on both sides. We
ask every sane thinking man to TX the
responsibility for deaths occurring IN
prison where it belongs If the south held
her captives in. order to persecute and
torture, she ought to be mathematical
by the nations, but if the south was al
ways ready to give up and parole her
captives, and the union government was
not ready to receive them, because every
rebel released meant recruit to the
southern army, then history III ust afix
on her its lasting condemnation.

Was this not the day OF all the DAYS in
the year when a general who, for three
days, on Inaccessible heights, with 80,
600 men, had hardly held at bay an army
of 50, 900. should, knowing his inability
to prevent General Lee marching these
prisoners to Libby or Andersonvlile 6, have

them from the long tramp and prison
life?
In October, 1864, General Lee wrote to
General Grant as follows: "To alleviate
the sufferings of our soldiers, | propose
the exchange of prisoners OF war, taken
by the armies operating in Virginia, ian
for man, upon the basis established by the
cartel"
On the next day General Grant replied
as follows: ~ could not OF right accept
your proposition, further than to ex-
change prison ers captured within the last
three days, and who have not yet been
delivered to the commanding general OF
prisoners. Among those lost by the
armies around Richmond were mum Der

THE LAST LECTURE.
Praxfteles and Scopas-Professor Miller
TO-nfpht.

Praxfteles and Scopas-PrOfessOr Miller
Tonight.
Some months ago the Kingsley Art
Club arranged for series Of lectures on
Greek art by Professor Walter Miller of
the Stanford University. The course
closes tonight at Pythian Castle Hall.
The club has labored very hard to make
the lectures of the greatest benefit to the
people. That they have pleased and in
s,ructed all who have attended them Is
well known.
Such lectures by students of the rank
of Professor Miller are educators in a
broad sense; they have been historical
instruction, art criticism, and refining
and stimulating influences.
Tonight the last lecture Of the course
will be delivered, and promises to be the
most interesting of all. The subject is
'Praxitel and Scopas." These two
names refer to two of the most famous of
sculptors. whose works reveal to us much
of the art, refinement. culture and
thought of the age in which the artists
lived.
AS heretofore the lecture will be illus
trated by stereopticOn views. There ought
to be full house because of the interest
of the subject, and in recognition OF the
endeayor of the club 10 cultivate taste
for such scholarly methods.
