Treatment Of Keoel Prisoners by thence. In connection with water transportation

Huntsville, Ala, June lb, 1807. f
E<1. N. Y. Times:— My attention line Wen
celled to an article in your paper of the lUtl
nit., in which, replying to some remarks
the Richmond Enquirer in regard to the treat
ment uf prisoner!*, it is said :
“ Nobodv on either side ever pretended for
a moment'that Rebel orisoners ever died in
our hands or ever suffered seriously for lack of
food or clothing <>r shelter. No such charge
has been made. ”
Will you then permit such charges to be
made through ysur columns ? I was captured
in October. 1803, and spent six months in
Camp Morton. In March 1804. I was removed
to Fort Delaware, where I remained until June
1806. The winter of 1803-4 is well known to
have been intensely severe.
Many rebel prisoners, to my own know ledge,
spent that winter without a blanket end in
from Florence to St. Louis. it could be made
the cheapest-route for heavy freight* between!
the seaboard .mi ail that section whit his with
in the influence of the trade of St. Louis,
thereby con.ermc a vast l>enef ; .t upon the cot
ton growing sections of thi» State and Florida,
of ' c h ea P*ming the cost of all the supplies drawn 1
freru the west. It will also greatly a fill n de
veloping one of the richest mineral regions in
the world— the whole country along your line
from Carrollton to the Tennessee Hi ver. ab un
ding in coal, iron and other valuable mineral
and ores.
The foresight of that distinguished railroad
projector ond manager, the late R. K. Cuvier,
long ago pointed out the importance of this
line, and urged it as one of the first railway i
enterprises of the South. Being fully impress
ed with the correctness of his views, it has, for
years, impressed my thought ; and during the
recent session of the Legislature. I took occa ;
sion to urge it as a work pre-eminently meri
torious, and worthy of State aid. And the bill
fer that purpose which passed by a large nn-
the scant and ragged summer clothing worn jority vote in both Houses, was vetoed by the
when captured. The barracks were the old
cattle sheds used when the prison was a fair
ground, and open enough for the winter winds
to sweep freely. Scores of tlie men in the dead
of winter shpt in these sheds, upon the bare
ground, without covering, huddling together
like hogs to keep fioin freezing
It is well known to hundreds now living
that several died actually frozen to death,
Governor, simply upon the ground that, owing
to the political condition of the country, there j
was more than a probability that serious diffi-
cully might be experienced in raising sufficient
f unds by the sale of State bonds, to meet neces- j
sary appropriations for the civil establishment, i
■ ami tLut a further issue of bonds, or State crcd- 1
it by endorsement, might result in a deprecia-
| tion of such credits as if would be necessary to j

ion, in which position he heaped upon the de
fenceless men every indignity that so inhuman
a wretch could devise.
At the very time such an outcry was raised
about mortality among Northern soldiers in
Southern prisons, the inmates of Camp Morton
knew the mortality then in proportion to the
number of men to be several per cent. more.
At Fort Delaware our barracks were more
comfortable, but rations were miserably insuf
ficient, and prisoners who could not obtain
money from t-beir friends with which to pro
cure extra supplies from the sutlers suffered
the pangs oi huuger night and day, and reduc
ed to skeletons, and eaten up by scurvy from
scanty and unwholesome food, fell ready vie- |
tims to disease and died by hundreds.
At the close of the war, of about 7,000 men j
in one pen, fully one-half, if not three-fourths j
were hut walking skeletons, hundreds of them
ruined for life with scurvy.
It was a daily occurrence for large numbers j
of the men to be beaten over the head with
bludgeons, or kept lor hours tu-d up by the
thumbs in most agonizing torture. A Dutch
Lieutenant, Dientz, in charge of our pen, was
for weeks in the habit of coming in with a
large cowhide and lashing the men most un
mercifully—in one instance cutting a gash in
the face of an Alabamian named I’ardue, in
which your linger could have been laid.
It was no uncommon thing for the guards,
upon the slightest pretext, to lire iuto the quar
tets in which were 3UU or 400 *11-11, ami several
prisoners were needlessly and recklessly killed
by them.
The above, and the half has not been told,
are plain, unexuggerated facts which can be
substantiated by most unquestionable authori
ty, and fur the truth of wiiicii I pledge my
character and reputation as a minister of the
gospel.

W II Andrews, Jabe Bras Bell and J James.
By request, F. S. Fitch. of the Griffin
Star, while the committee was absent, enter-
• tained the meeting in a very lengthy and an-
! propriate speech.
j The following preamble and resolutions were
j then read and unanimously adopted :
Whereas, The circumstances by which we
! are at present surrounded, powerfully admon-
i ish us, that we prize our happiness, our liberty
I and our honor, we should be fully awake to
J the measures inaugurated by which these ines
timable blessings are to be affected, and
Whereas, It has long been the custom of
the citizens of the United States, and of the
several States, to assemble and consult together
and publish to the world their opinions upon
all matters of public policy.
In pursuance of this time-honored practice,
we having calmly and maturely considered the
great questions which at present occupy the
public mind, deem it a duty as well as a privi
lege, to proclaim to the world our deliberate
and honest opinions and sentiments.
Resolved, therefore, That we hereby express
our firm and sincere attachment to the princi
ples of the Constitution of the United States, as
handed down to us by our forefathers, arid
pledge our unqualified support of the same, as
being tire only basis upon which the union of
the States aud happiness of the people cun be
seemed and perpetuated.
2. That we would hail as an event of para
mount political importance, the restoration of
the ten excluded States to their former relations
and constitutional rights in the Union.
3. That we hereby honestly and most sol
emnly protest against the action of Congress
in the establishment of a military despotism
over these sovereign States.
4. That vve will never by our own act, be
come a party to the overthrow of the rights
ana liberties ot any State or individual, but
will forever maintain to the best of our ability
the great principles of constitutional free foie.
5. That in the passage of the bills known as
the “Military Bill” and the “trill supplemen
tary thereto,” Congress has been gui'ty of a
willful and most destructive violation of the
plainest provisions of the Constitution, and un
warrantable usurpation of powers in rendering
the civil authority subordinate to and depend
ent upon the military affine tor the terms of
their offices and the exercises of their official
duties, in interfering with aud seeking to reg
ulate the franchise for these StiAes, which is
unquestionably a matter belonging exclusively
to the States themselves : and in short, by at
tempting to force upon the good people of
these States terms which would be at oi.ee hu
miliating, degrading, unjust and oppressive.
6 That we desire to live upon terms of
] peace, harmony and fraternity with every State
! and citizen of the American Union, and only
i ask for our State what the Constitution guarau-
I tees : the same privileges and immunities as
; those enjoyed by any State. We ask nothing
■ more, and will not voluntarily accept anything
; less.
j 7. That any attempt on the pari of our peo-
! pie to organize a State Government under the
! provisions of said military bill, would be a
i disgraceful submission to ‘lie most flagrant in

From the Rome Courier.
Ckdar Town, Ga., June 29, 1807.
Ed. Courier—We respectfully ask a space iu
your valuable columns, to express bur solemn
determination to sever our connection with
that political organization styled the “Union
League.” Being ardently desirous to contrib
ute our humble, mite in any effort to restore
harmony to the distracted country ; secure
peace and quiet for our distressed section, and
rescue imperilled freedom from the tool grasp
of ruthless and lawless tyrants, and sincerely
believing that this was an honest undertaking
by the patriotic conservatism ot the Govern
ment to accomplish these great ends, we read
ily yielded to the solicitations of those we re
garded as friends, and became members of the
order. But it is due to ourselves, our children
our fellow-citizens and .to our consciences, to
say that the representations made to us were
not true in fact. Instead of securing to us the
blessings we so earnestly desired, we are pain
ed to find, strife is being inaugurated, hostility
engendered and the absolute destruction of all
the good the government was intended to con
fer put to hazard.
We are Union men, and have ever loved the
Union ; under the Constitution of “the fathers’
with the undissembled homage of an honest
allegiance. We nittle for principle and sacred
truth, and will never give adhesion to the pre
tensions of party. We do not wish to be un
derstood as disclosing any of the
of tiie Union League and would
the slightest circumstance couin
der the sanctity of a solemn oath ; hut the ru- j
inous teachings and fatal tendencies of the pai ty
we feel constrained, by the suggestions of pa
triotism and common honesty to repudiate and
denounce.
This government, we feel, was established
for the advancement of the white race alone
and we cannot, and will not so far forget our
national allegiance to its principles, as to par
ticipate in the movements of any
who band themselves together for
of waging war upon the provisions
stution.
The Union League, is, beyond
of the radical party; that infau
tion to whose nefarious maclnn
ruin that effects us, is attributable,
fore we, as true born Southerners,
ed to withdraw from it, and to
jecls and denounce its purposes.
