Whilst we are sorry for the fate of these gallant officers, we rejoice that it is no worse. Capts. N. Nesbit and Thomas H. Spires, are from this county, and Capt, Brady, (who had been reported killed,) from Jefferson. In justice to these gallant men, and the thousands who are languishing in Southern prisons, we hope the Government will consent to a general exchange. The people demand this.
