Our Yankee prisoners.

A correspondent suggests that the Yankee prisoners, a good many of whom are shoe-makers, should be set to work making shoes for our soldiers. We shall soon have a good many of them on hand, and cannot be expected to feed them without some return. The Yankees compel our Negroes to work upon their fortifications, and our prisoners should be compelled to make themselves useful. In every case where it is well ascertained that a negro has been sold to Cuba, one of these prisoners should be placed at the master's disposal till the return of his property.
