The Refusal to Exchange Pris

ANOTHER LETTER FROM MR. OOI.O.
Richmond, September 3, 1868.
To the Editors of the Dispatch
Gentlemen—The Dispatch, a few days ago,
published a letter of S. A. Meredith, who
styled himself “late Brigadier-General and
United States Commissioner of Exchange.
The letter was originally published in the
Buffalo Commercial Advertiser. This
“United States Commissioner" is not Briga
dier-General Solomon A Meredith, of In
diana, as the Hon. Garrett Davis, of Ken
tucky, supposed in his remarks, in the United
States Senate, upon retaliation in Jannary,
1865, by Sullivan A. Meredith, formerly of
Philadelphia. He is more commonly, and I
will add more aptly, known as “Sully Mere
dith but, like a verb of the class intransi
tive, he cau only “sully” himself. No man
who knows him well would ever get angry
at anything be says or writes. He is such
an ass. He was United States Commissioner
of Exchange once, and lest for that reason
his letter might impose upon somebody, I
have determined, notwithstanding its gross
ness, to reply to it. If he had not once oc
cupied that official position I never would
have noticed his scurrility.
Hear him : “Another insuperable obstacle
to returning exchanges was in that matter of
paroles. Hr. Onld had some 18,000 or 20,-
OUO which be claimed as valid. Most, if not
all, ol those paroles were taken by guerillas,
bushwhackers, and detached commands in
the West. No possession was ever had, no
delivery was ever made, and no rolls were
ever furnished. On the capture of a town
by a rebel cavalry raid the command re
mained long enough to take the paroles of
unarmed citizens there, and then decamped,
leaving the paroled men behind, and for
warding the paroles to Richmond. And the
rebels bad the assurance to require the
United Stales Government to exchange pris
oners legitimately captured in battle tor such
paroles as these."
To show bow utterly untruthful this Sully
is. I will give an extract trom an official let
ter which I wrote to him on November 21,
1863, in relation to these very paroles. It is
as follows:
“I will not claim the paroles of citizens.
All the paroles which I will produce will be
those of Federal soldiers in actual service at
the time ol capture. I will show the partic
ular li calily wuere the parties were captured,
the command to which they belonged, the
comm sad which captured them, and the pre
cise date of each transaction. I will accom
pany the presentation with such foil and par
ticular evidence as will enable you to verify
tllP trijfh nf 1 Lit -— J ''
and the statements of your own officers ana
soldiers.” . ,, ,
Now, whether Sully forgot the other day,
in Buffalo, that he had received such a let-
ler, or purposely falsified the fact, I know
^It is perhaps, cbariiable to infer that he
bad lorgotten, as that is the habit of his. I
recoliect one case when he was acting as
United States Commissioner, in which he
failed to claim certain credits to which be
was entitled, and I took occasion to refresh
his memory. If be wishes the particulars,
and asks lor them in more polite language
than he uses in his letter, I will give them
to him. . . ..
Sully is scarcely more accutats in his cita
tion of the other “causes of the suspension
of the cartel.” It is utterly untrue either
that I made “illegal declarations of ex
change” or that “all prisoners paroled bv the
United States authorities were immediately
returned to active duty in the rebel army.
It was the practice of the agents of exchange
on both sides to declare exchanges
ed. In this matter I have no concealments
to make, and have therefore frankly stated
the position taken by the Confederate Gov
ernment. But be that as it may; why should
a difficulty about the release of slaves, wbo
did not form one-fiftieth of the number of
the prisoners, prevent the exchange of the
others ? When Straight’s men were detained
under grave charges preferred by the Gov
ernor of Alabama, other exchanges.went on.
So, when Morgan’s men were put in a peni
tentiary, or Missoari soldiers were kept in
jails, exchanges were, not. stopped. Was
there to be one rule, fair the white inan, and
another and more favorable one for the
black ? General Bntler thought the case of
negro soldiers strong enough to stand upon
its own merit's,' especially ’as’ the Federal
Government, after all the Union prisoners
were exchanged, would have had a large ex-
cess of Confederates on hand, who could be
held as hostages; but it seems that Sully
thinks otherwise.
Sally is right in one thing. The matters
be sets forth- were difficulties in the way of
exchange, but only because they were made
so by himself and bis prompters. I believed
at the time,' and now believe, that he was
sent to Fortress Monroe for tbe purpose of
preventing exchanges. General Butler, in
bis Massachusetts speech of January, 1865,
frankly confessed that he was relactsntly en
gaged in that sort of business at .a later date.
He had a willing forerunner in Sully. More
over, he was coarse, rude, arrogant, and so
inexpressibly stupid, that it was difficult to
transact any business with him. With some
reassn he might have urged these personal
peculiarities as an obstruction to exchanges.
A tolerably fair specimen of his slyleof cor
respondence as Agent of Exchange is found
in this Buffalo letter.
In the preparation of my letter of the 20 ch
ultimo I studiously avoided anything in the
way of epithet or denunciation, and confined
myself to a simple array of facts, with an
appeal in each case either to the record or to
tbe testimony of Federal officers. I will
knew that the sluices of abuse would be
open. If I had thought of Sully, I would
have felt assured that his little -flood-gate
would be the first. This style of attack has,
however, uo terrors for me. I have buffeted
many a time with worse calamities.
Sally says that the difficulties whioh he
enumerates “alone were the causes which
prevented the exchange of prisoners, and
these canses were in operation until the close
of the war.” Sully retired.frbm the position
as Agent of Exchange about the 1st of Jan
uary, 1864; for what reason J.do not know.
He was not brevetted for distinguished ser
vices in that capacity. But is it to be sup
posed that he knows as much about the rea
sons whioh prevented the exchange as Gen.
Grant, who had control of the matter ? The
Lientenant-General gives a very different
reason. In his telegram of August IS, 1864,
be says: “If we commence a system of ex
change which liberates all' prisoners taken
we will have to fight on until the whole
South is exterminated. If we hold those
men caught, they amount to no more than
dead men. At this particular time to release
all rebel prisoners North would insure Sher
man's defeat, and . would compromise onr
safety here.” Who is to be believed, Sally
or Gen. Grant ?
But why has Sully confined himself to
that portion of my letter which relates to
tbe stoppage of exchange? There were
several other matters brought to light in that
paper. Has he nothing to say about tbe
offer, in the summer of 1864, to release
all the Federal sick and wouuded without
requiring equivalents? Has he no excuse
to make for tbe failure to send transporta
tion for those sick and wonoded for mouths ?
iftft,he hQlhilUSJ'iireuiiahee,*
Federal surgeons to bring them, within the
Confederate lines for the exclusive rebel ot
Union prisoners ? He, who has been so
forward to utter wbat I have shown to be
utterly untrue about the question of ex
change, is silent us to thete other and graver
matters. Since under such oirenmstances is
the strongest of contessihns.
Sully is a convenient aud invaluable op
ponent. He fathers stray stories that have
been running about without any., paternity
in a way which serves to show beyond a
doubt that thev are bastaids. Will his friends
keep him in the lists in his damaged con
dition, or retire him again ?
Respectfully your obedient servant,
Ro. Cold.
of being almost completed, had not yet be
gun. The suggestion that “those who have
controlled the government for tbe last four
years’’ are preventing the Southern people
from going to work and reorganizing their
business and so restoring their lost prosper
ity, is too absolutely weak and false to war
rant argument or denial. Every sane child-
in tbe land knows that facilities for doing
these very things have been showered upon
the conquered rebels by a republican govern
ment such as uo conquered rebels ever en
joyed in the history of man.
Rut we said that Bosecrans’ duplicity is
two-fold. He has learned one of the rudi-
mental lessons ot diplomacy, to-wit: that
language was given to ns. to conoeal onr
thoughts. Nowhere does he betrayjlbe real
purpose of his Qnixotio mission. Not a
word is spoken wnioh indicates where the I
secret spring of all this elaborate diplomacy
lies. And yet it all amounts to nothing but
tbe effort ot a soured, sore-beaded, jealous
S ldier to vent hislong pent-up spleen upon
sneral Grant. Rosecrans failed, under
Grant, to sustain himself as a successful com
mander. He became a hindrance to General
Grant, instead of a help, aud sunk away as
many another unsuccessful officer did, in the
comparative obscurity of retired life. He
now aims tbit awkward, feeble, ill-aimed
blow at his old chiefs and hopes, by such
diplomacy as this, to array the rebel generals
once more against the man who, again and
again, crushed and conquered, and finally
destroyed them and their bad cause.
Transcendent folly is written over this
whole performance. As a piece of diplo
macy, and as a Democratic dodge, it is ut
terly worthless, fiat, and beneath contempt.
It breaks down by Us own weight of egotism,
duplicity and patronage of treason and re
bellion. It will deceive nobody, nor turn
one vote against tbe object of its attack—
General Grant. It will only serve to con
vince the country that the {senate committed
a blunder of the first magnitnde when it un
dertook to make a diplomatist out of General
Bosecrans.

Many lirneB the reporter bad heard Hr.
F , in conversation with his friend J ,
make allusion to a ghostly reminheence,
which always called to their countenances an
expression of doubt and indecision strangely
at variance with the bold and fearless char
acters they bore. He had always desired to
hear the story, and now solicited Mr. F
to tell it.
“Certainly; but you must promise to be

“We were all counterfeiters. A number
of them were in the city, and were daily put
ting large sums of spurious money in circu
lation. Sometimes a woman was made the
medium of this fraud ; at others a boy; al
ways those apparently innocent, whUe tbe
actual offenders kept under cover. One night
a young woman came to the station and com
plained that she had been brutally ill-treated
by a man whose name she appeared anxious
to conceal. She did not wish him arrested,
but only sought protection for herself trom

“There was something in her air and

the Third district near tbe bank ot ihenver.
It had been long disused, and was rapidly

when New Orleans was yet an infant city,
it had been tbe mansion of a rich proprietor.
But like most old houses, it had an evil

done to death by a maniac brother. .the
wraiths of both had haunted the old build-

of evil would select as an abode.

Suddenly a dull, greyish light penetrated
