' The publication recently ntade by Mr. Oommis lione Ould, whiob appeared in our yesterday's edi- tion, files tbe responsibility fir tbe failure it con tinue the eschanga of prisoners, where it properly haloes, unon tbe Tankee government. Tens of thousands of men are now sufferiog from confine' merit, or are heart -nick because ot their long sepa ration from their families and friends, and yet the Llnoeln government refuses to comply with the ar rangement to whir's it had solemnly committed it telf, and under which it acted so long as it was "it Interest to do so. The. reason which prompts them to indulgo in tail bare-fsoed raseallity, is, if possiblo still more Contemptible, Our soldiers' are enlisted for the 1 War, and when embangod return .immediately to ' their eommands, and thus swell tho ranks ol out armies. Theirs are enlisted for throe' years, and . tbe terms of the greater proportion of those ws bold as piikoners, -aiioer has, or w II shortly, oj- Tha Yankee gororriment tberef ire argues, that If "zzy ". the e?h"ni now. thev will be swap ping soldiers for non combatants, and that increase rar armies without benefiting thoir own. Whatever we may think of the motir.es of the JJorthero people in waging this war upon ua. no 00 can dony that tho Yankeo soldjer has faithfully omplled wltb his contract at the time of his enlist ment, ite baa endured all of the hardships and privations of the soldier lite, and bus permitted himself, on all occasions, to bo led up like a sheep to the slaughter, In the inninlotiance of what he was taught was the cnuso of his country. Through three long years of self denial and of carnage he ha upheld the kTunner of the United Sttiies, and Staked bis life upon hundreds of battle-fields in its defence. It may be argued that ''living ilmio these things be deserves his fate. This is true. His puntsb mentis not greater than bin 'in. He hag permitted himself to ba used as an instrument of oppression tn a war prosecute I for ilio ruin of a people who never did him wrong.' nn I were simply fighting for principle", which he boast,- that he ha been strug gling to uphold. . But tbis Is not tho n: ti ed their government wn years have braved the Und behalf, and now because thi ir terms of service have cipirod, or aro about to expire, . mnUthey can be ol CO further ose,'the guvcrnuii'M tuiKtly leayos them 10 perish lu our Southern prisons, it) a clitnato to which their constitution, are not (udapted, and where they are dying at the rule of one to two hun dred par day. The y ink.iv soldier ran judgo IV nn thU) treatment, the ex milt ol tho gnititudu t is coun try feels for his eorviccs. Many of tliem have doubtless stood between the urmyyif Gen. Lee, and tba Washington despot, and sated his person anil bli Capitol from eapltiro and destruction, mid now he leaves them to die and rot in prisons to which they hava found their way in lighting for his cause, . Tba Confodorule Government is ready and anx ious, aud has ever been, to make regul r exchanges, butltbaienaountorttd duplicity, pulidy, nnd double dealing, Id every attempt it him uude slneothe sus pension of the cartel in proeure a resumption of the system of exchange, lu skirts aro clear of all re-, possibility and history and tho world will to dp-aide. In Fiild. Jt Atlanta, Uk August Wth, leol. 1 havinc nothing else to oiler, had iriven ut the onlv ornaiiients they were permitted to use. In ene of the gull.- '.in were two beautiful shawls, valued at fifty girinoas each, and in t'ae room known as the Tux room, adjoining the small di amber iu which the great llollt-h s'litumau died, were two tine oil iiaiutings, tha property of -Polish familiea, which were nffevca at tbe price of $300u each. Amo'ig the mrellaueoua articles for sale wore three oilver suutl' boxes, which had becu lent by Huniaus with a view of benefiting their oppresned fellow sublets. .Sonic of the rings boro dates which showed that they had been worn in aonio ciiM'R fiOv, in others but two or three years. The sales were at exceedingly low prices, the love tokeu and ring's going often for only a few shillings. ' Tour correspondent Thompson, in a eotnmuni cation that appeared in your issue of the 23d inst.. has charged ma with having mode some wretched mistakes in regard to tbe action of Tyler's brigade, on the 6th of tbis month. The firat of my statements noticed by him was, "at five o'clock thi morning tho enemy charged the'37th Georgia with a heavy line of Airtiiishers, driving in tho videttcs, etc." Of this he says: "Now I waa an actor in this maguUicent drama; and if tha enemy made any demonstration bi lore ten o'clock I was nuablo to ace it." Of the Mte ment niado by me I have to say that, it is corrob orated by the testimony of Lieut-Col. Smith, commanding 37th Georgia regiment, and the olli cial report of the brigade commander. "Thomp son" is poBsibly not an early riser, ond may have beenaslocpi if not, bo was out-of place gr wil fully prevaricated. . - Ahin. baaava: "lu the Ut!tt place, no five n - - - j - lines of battle own:t.-d ri position.".; If the hon orable (1) ni-utler.ii;.. 1 J'el'r to my communica tion, bo will learn, a be ihotild havo done bi'rure reviewing the article, thut I uever made tho alate- " Mv lanuairo was.
