THE HOSPITALS—The remarks in Congress indicate that these horrible nuisances are to undergo a thorough overhauling.  And from information we have received from various quarters we are satisfied that never was overhauling more deserved.  We know of one gentleman at least who had a wounded son there who is determined to bear his testimony to the flagrant character of the evils.  Let others do likewise.  In the name of all that is generous and just and humane, let us see that the gallant soldiers of liberty, and especially the wounded among them, be treated in the kindest and most skillful manner.
