DEAR GAZETTE: We have now been IL
camp at this place about two weeks, and
during that time have been very pleasantly
situated, enjoying ourselves capitally. We
have drilled four hours each day, had dress
parades, received visits from Qnincy's Aii
ones, had dances on the green, wa1kings with
the ladies, and some visiting in the city
This Is a great change for the Third Iowa.
How long we are to remain here, or what
our future destination is to be, am unable
to state.
Yesterday was very happy day for us
"poor soger boys" The ladies of Quincy
visited our camp, bringing with them many
little delicacies to astonish and tickle the
palates of the Iowa Third boys. Surely, We
had a good dinner that day. Soon after we
had finished our repast the Major procured
music and we went out upon the grass and
had grand dance. We soldiers put in a
little leap frog" in the way Of variation,
which caused considerable amazement and
more or less mirth. After indulging thus for
a reasonable length Of time, we had dress
parade, which finished the military duties Of
the day. Many Of US secured passes and
vent to the city with the damsels. In the
evening the officers had dance in one of the
city halls, and general good time, it is said,
they had Of it.
We privatcs got cheated out of an even.
ing's entertainment recently. The ladies
made arrangements, for our benefit, to give a
party, and dispatched us invitation by the
officers. Officers didn't deliver the message,
probably concluding that camp was the best
place for privates, and that they did not re.
quire recreation, or other enjoyment than
they could find in the camp. No doubt but
we can stand heap o grief H..
Lord bless the ladies'! They are contnu-
ally endeavoring to cast some ray of joyous.
ness over our monotonous lives We love
them for it, and will cherish their memory
fondly. We appreciate their kindness, and
when again upon the field Of battle, with
death looking us boldly in the face, though,
of them shall nerve us to greater deeds in oul
country's behalf, and for the perpetuity Of
those blessed institutions which have so ex.
allied woman. God bless the tender, sympa.
thising, loving, loyal hearts of the ladies Of
this goodly city Of Quincy, and of this glori
GUS old Union, wherever they are, so tina,
they honor that standard sheet which waves
over the Third Iowa, and love the holy cause
for which it has sworn to fight. and will fight
till victory's glad note shall echo and re echo
from the gulf to the river ST. Lawrence.
A great many members of the regimen,
are at present absent on furloughs of ten tc
thirty days. Those here in camp are, with
very few exceptions, well and hearty.
The drum is beating for battalion drill, and
must close. ......... ...s.............. d.

FALSE REPoRTs.--A great excitement was
produced here and elsewhere this week by
positive statements, coming through a.yarie.
ty of sources, that there had been fight and
a. great Southern victory at Hampton, Ri
miles from Old Point, and another battle
with a similar favorable result. at Harper's
Ferry. There is no truth whafever in either
story. The former went so far as to specify
that 700 Yankees and ~ Southerners had
been killed, and 1000 Yankees taken prison
ers. The latter, that an attack on the South
ern forces at Harper's Ferry had been " re-
pulsed with heavy loss"
These are abominable stories. The ac-
tua excitements of war are quite enough to
satisfy the public taste. without inyenting
any. Somebody oughtto be published.
