CAMP BENTON, ST. LOUIS,
November 18th, 1861.

November 18th, 1861.
DEAR GATE: The whole Of our Regi.
ment is now here, and things seem to &C
on about as they did at Camp Rankin,
only, of course, you know, We are little
too far from that Camp to ever amour: to
| much here as n Camp.
Our Regiment is looked upon with great
favor here, and the good character of our
men is the theme of all.
We had the pleasure, yesterday, of wit
Messing sham fight between the Second
Iowa" Infantry, and the Sd Battalion of
the lst Iowa Cavalry The sound, or
rather rattle, of the musketry, was musical
in the extreme. The Cavalry got the
worst of it, losing fine horse, whose rider
advanced 50 far as to run him against
bayonet.
On the whole, we have a glorious time
here-work, of course, is plenty, but lots
of fun, and to man with my temperament.
it is exciting in the extreme. On Sunday,
we had sight of the beautiful Flag, pre-
sented to our Regiment by Mrs. Rankin,
and many were the expressions of regard
toward the fair donor, from ''our boys" as
they looked with pride upon the beautiful
gift from their townswoman, and many
were the vows that it should never trail
in the dust, till the Sd Iowa Cavalry went
down.
Col. Bussey is growing in favor with his
men every day. The officers of our Regi
ment, from highest to lowest, are on the
most pleasant terms to be imagined. How
different from some other Regiments, whose
officers are continually contending for po-
sition, not content with what they have,
and with trying to save their country.
The Iowa troops here now, are the I'd
and Sd regiments of Infantry. and one
battalion of the lst Regiment, and the Sd
Regiment OF Cavalry, and heard, to-day,
the gallant 9TH might possibly be here
soon. | hope it may be so, and that other
Iowa Regiments may be sent here, and
that the day is not far distant, when Iowa.
with her twenty thousand troops, will not
be overlooked by the Administration, but
that we may, at least, have one Major
General, and three Brigadier- Generals,
ana that we have our troops together, and
not scattered all over the country, DOING
the hardest fighting under other command
ers.
Urge this matter, dear sir, upon the
authorities, and with hope that it will be
done, and that soon. Yours,
SIR

By The latest accounts we learn thai
Col Lauman Regiment led the charge
upon the batteries at the opening of the
battle, and protected the rear in the ,inal
retreat They lost more men in killed
aud wounded, in front of the batter les
during the charge, in proportion to their
whole number, than any other regiment,
and they lost more prisoners in the retreat.
Col. i.auman had two horses shot under
him and was badly wounded; Lieut. Col.
Wentz was killed; Maj. Rice was wound
ed, and Adjutant Bowler was taken
prisoner. And yet let it be told in Gath
and published in the streets of Askelon,
that the reporters of the Chicago Press
ignored everything but the simple fact
that the Iowa 9TH was in the expedition
They tell us that this Illinoisan led the
left and that Ilinoisan the right, and the
other lllinoisan the centre, and that one
Illinois General had horse shot under
him and another was grazed and that NIL
the Illinois colonies and troops behaved
with great gallantry, &C., but they give us
no word as to the position of the Iowa tn
or the behavior of the officers and men in
the battle. The list of killed and wound
ed does not ignore the Iowa eth, but
shows up the disingenuous sin of deliber-
ate omission committed by the Illinois
Specials. The Iowa Seventh led the
charge and covered the retreat; they
received the cnemys fire in the advance
and shielded the Illinois regiments with
their own bodies, and again they covered
them in the retreat and held the enemy
in check till the Illinoisans got out of
danger. And yet, after all their promi-
hence and suffering, these Illinoisans
take all the glory to themselves and forget
their benefActors.
