In the months of I\Iay and June last, there were about two thousand three hundred prisoners. In May five died ; in June only one !
Point Lookout was still another post which had been subjected to the rebel statement that the prisoners thei'e suffered from cruelty and neglect. Miss Dix, who visited those very prisoners, sutliciently disposes of the slander. JShe says, " They were supplied with vegetables, with the best wheat bread, and fresh and salt meat three times daily in abundant measure —
...the full government ra- tion.
•■ In the camp of about nine thousand rebel prisoners, there Avere but four hundred reported to the surgeon. Of these one hun- dred were confined to their beds, thirty were very sick, and perhaps fifteen or twenty would never recover.
" The hospital food consisted of beef-tea, beef-soup, rice, milk-punch, milk, gruel, lem- onade, stewed fruits, beefsteak, vegetables, and mutton. White sugar was employed in cooking. The supplies were, in fact, more ample and abundant than in hospitals where our own men wei-e under treatment." The surgeons of the various hospitals, in several instances, allude to the excellent condition of the prisoners when discharged and exchanged, and in the statement of IMiss Di.K will b« found a brief description of their appearance when leaving the flag-of-truce boat for their own linos : " All were in vig- orous health, equipped in clothes furnished by the United States Government, many of them with blankets and haversacks." And here terminates the contrast, which the reader has probably been drawing throughout, between the military stations ibr prisoners, North and South, Union and Rebel.
