Dix, in behalf of (he V'lite I States. That Caitcl stipulated that all prisoners of war h'Tciifier taken --hall be discharged on (ill exc'liangcd. Scarcely hud that Cartel been signed when the authorities of the I'niled States commenced a practice changing the char acter of the war from such us becomes civilized nations, into a campaign of indiscriminate robbery and murder. The general order issued by the Secretary of War of the I 'nited States-in the City Washington, on the very day that the Cartel was signed in Virginia, directs the military commanders of the I'niled States to lake the private property of our people for convenience, and use tho same without any compensation.

l'ope nnd his commissioned ollicers to bo in tho position which they have chosen for themselves that of robbers nnd of murderers, and not that of public enemies, entitled, if captured, to be consigned ns prisoners of war. We find ourselves driven by our enemies, by steady towards a practice which we abhor, and which we are vainly striving to avoid. Some of the military authorities of the United States seem to suppose that better success will attend a savage war, in which no quarter is to be given, and no ages or sex to be spaied than has hitherto been secured by such hostilities as are recognized to be law ful by civilized men in modern times. For tho present we announce our right of retaliation for the innocent, and shall continue to treat private enlisted soldiors of Gen. Pope's army as prisoners of war; but after notice to the Government has been given at Washington of our confining repressive measures to punishment only of commissioned officers, who were willing to participate in (hose crimes nnd savage practices which are continued, we shall reluctantly be forced to the bust resrrt of ecccptinc the war on the terms chosen by our foes, until outrages of a common humanity force a respect for recognized rules of war.

While these facts would justify our resolution to Ihe generous 'artel by which we havo consented to liberate an excess of thousands of prisoners held by us, beyond the number held by the enemy, a sacred regard to plighted faith, shrinking from the mere semblance oi brenlsitig 4i pi'Hveiiin our. resort to this extremity; nor we desire to extend to any oilier forces of the enemy tho punishment merited alone by (icn. l'ope and such commissioned ollicers as choose to participate in the execution of his infamous orders. You are therefore Instructed to communicate to tho commander-in chief of the armies of tho United Stale, the contents of this letter, nnda copy of the inclosed geYiernl order, lo tho cml that he may be notified of our intentions not to consider any ollicers hereafter captured from Gen. lVqio's nnny us prisoners of war.
