Rich Mountain (West Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 7
the slumbering volcano on which the Lincoln Government now rests, and the eruption that will destroy, not only the leaders of the Government, but the Government itself will be hastened. Since Gen. McClellan is now Commander-in-Chief it seems peculiarly proper that a strong effort should be made to effect an exchange, for he is already more than half committed to the policy. If his view were not favorable to such a system, the obligations given by our men who were paroled by him at Rich Mountain and Laurel Hill would have been very different from the one which was exacted. Being unfortunately one of those prisoners, this writer subscribed the following obligation; "I promise on honor not to take up arms nor serve in any military capacity against the United States Government until released according to the usages of war." This obligation, taken from those who were surrendered as belligerents is without doubt a complete recognition of us as such; yet it is more than a recognition

They will receive no wages after their regiments were mustered out of service. Thus it will be readily perceived that their Government is gainer by their detention. The policy of exchanging will never be adopted whilst our Government holds such men in durance and paroles those who are enlisted for the war, or for three years, as was done by Gen.

It is referred to, though merely for the purpose of showing Gen. McClellan's position in this matter. The present time is most favorable for pressing this policy upon the Lincoln Administration, and Gen. McClellan's desire to inGen. McClellan's desire to ingratiate himself with the masses, by gaining the reputation of having obtained the release of their friends now in our hands backs up the application very powerfully. By accomplishing it, our gallant friends now in their hands, and those of us who are paroled and at home, will have the chains removed from our gallant limbs, and o
