How We Treated Our Prisoners.
| Prom tlif New Yurli Tril'iiue i
In view of tlie testli iv ou the Wirz
il, much of it from Rebel sources, We
sumo Ihe effort to deny that Union
soners were inhumanly treated will
: much longer be persisted in. Mr.
wley, of the London Timet, will liiul
■n liis imagination overtasked to ex-
In away Belle Isle ami Andersonville.
'. Baker, counsel for Wirz, in his hist
■ech to the Court, does not pretend t<>
able to control the evidence already
All he proposes is, in some cases, lo
ye an alibi for his client, and in Un
it toshow that he was acting under
tamtam Richmond. This being.the
te, the Rebel organs here and abroad
liettto a change of tactics. Tlieilel'iii
■eisto \m exchanged for aggrewtve,
d a sort of lv quoove to be pleaded at
a bar oi* public opinion. It the Robots
tated theirjirisoners cruelly, so did the
lionists—that is to be the next alloga
in.
We are very glad to have the question
ised. It happens that the evidence is
ready at hand, and whatever U want
g is sure to be elicited in the conrse of
c discussion. If any of it bears hard
i our side, so be it; we will readily give
all the weight it is Entitled 10. Indi
dmil cases of hardship may have oo*
there may have been instances
of cruelly ; if so, none readier than wi
thal the guilty parties should be exported
and punished. It would be strange if
among tlie numberless oflloen on our
side charged with the care of Rebel pris
oners, now and then one had not shown
himself cruel; whether moved by the
? trochlea he believed were Inflicted on
lis fellow-soldiers, or being himself bj
nature brutal. But the fact will still re
main that the prisoners in our hand
during the war were, as a rule, treiltet
with great kindness, with every atten
tion to their comfort, and of ionise wit
perfect freedom from any thing like the
intentional and svstemati/.ed barbarity
which, on the part of the Rebel Confed
eracy, was instigated and authorized by.
its highest ollicials.
A recent letter to a Washington paper
givesa good account, of the condition 61
the Rebels at one of the largest of (im
prisons, Fort Delaware. But the fullest
and most satisfactory testimony is sup
plied by the report of the Sanitary Com-,
mission, to which we have olton re
ferred for proof of the outrages our
soldiers suffered. Of that re) v>it we de
sire to repeat that though it lias soine
i times been characterized abroad as a
partisan document, it bits never been
successfully impeached in a single par
ticular. It was published witli the evi
dence on whicli il was based. It con
tains nearly two hundred pages ol sworn
testimony from about seventy I nion
and Rebel soldiers. No fact thus sworn
to has ever boon specifically contradic
ted, nor the veracity of a single witness
assailed. More than a year before the
public, and sustaining every test i>\
which such a statement can be tried, II
is entitled to full faith and credit in
every respect. It was deemed at Hie
Mine, we remember, supertluous pains
ur present evidence of good treatment ol
v prisoners by our Covornmeut. The
w.Ait assaults of such papers as the
M.« York Dutlif N, WW, and Mich met.

GKN'i. (iRANT AND THK EXCI.ISH
ma.n.-Aii incident of General Grant's
visit to Canada lihs recently been toll
j us which has not before appeared h
I print, and which is warranted as true:
I Whllo in Montreal, and just after an
I interview with a number of Canadian
i oflioials and others, he appeared much
disturbed, and calling Mr. ("Howie
knife') Potter, our Consul, said:—"Pot
ter, sit down. I want to talk to you ; I
, .never was so angry in my life."
■' • It seems that some one had been intro
duced to the General, and remarked gra
tuitously:
"General Grant, I am an Englishman,
and I wish to assure you that toy sympa
thy la and always has been with the
South and President Davis. I hope your
Government will not hang him."
"And I hope, sir, that he will have an
impartial trial, and if he is convicted, he
will be hung, as he certainly deserves to
be. He has murdered hundreds ot our
men ; he has starved our prisoners."
"That, sir," interrupted the other, "I
don't believe."
"1 have unfortunately met a great
many menofyour stamp who will never
believe anything against the South, but
who are ready to believe every!liing
airniust the North and the United States
government/
"Sir," said the englishman, "lam in
the habit of associating Wllhgtllfomm.''
"flow little apt we are to improve our
advantages," was Ihe quiet reply of the
Intuited and indignant < ieneral, and the
Englishman walked out crest fallen.—

in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in
