PRICE OF HORSES m IowA-Captain Rau
Lin has thus far purchased near eleven hnn-
d1ed horses for the Third Regiment oi Iowa
Cavalry. The average price Is under 800 per
head. This is very low, considering that they
have been purchased with certificates as
time when money is in great demand The
horses were purchased here and At various
points in the country. They we're inspected
carefully; good judges think the entire lot
very fine. Capt Rankin informs us thst be
