tortc ofthe editor of the Civilian. He has
several times attempted to give the sub
stance Of what be has heard relative to
the boys Of the Iowa Fifth, but has al
ways managed to give just the reverse of
what was stated. Sometime since he
stated that Sergeant WHITE had not seen
familiar face during his sickness un-
til Just previous to his departure from
Otterville for home. This the boys Of
the company esteem reflection upon
them, as indicating a want of attention to
the Sergeant. Instead OF its being true,
the Orderly had most faithful comrade
with him all the time, THOMAS BLoNDEN,
detailed specially to nurse him. And
he was repeatedly visited by the officers
of the regiment and company, as well as
by some OF the men. This story the
Civilian man Of course got from the same
source that he did the statement that
only two men of company E had escap-
ed sickness. That he first said came
from Mr.. WOODRUFF, but afterwards
contradicted by laying it to Mr.. DOME.
Ly. The latter most emphatically repu-
dates the paternity Of the statement. and
who our veracious neighbor will charge
il to next we cannot tell.
OF piece with these is the whole
statement il makes last week Of the con-
versaton Of Mr. WooDRuFF, whom ii en-.
tirely misrepresents, as respects Mr.. REED
and the disposal of hospital goods. We
don't care to drag Mr.. WOODRUFF into,
controversy, and the subject is too trivial,
or else we should show how our neigh
Dor pros,i,uted the sense Of what was
told him. He, Of course, knows.
These are very frivolous matters, and
we should never have thought Of men
tioning them had not the Civilian com
menced the disparagement Of our COR
respondence and our news.

the number of admissions to the Asylum
up to Nov. 80, to be 81 males and 70
females-total 10. Seventeen males aud
thirteen females have been discharged
leaving 40 still in the Institution. OF
the discharged 10 recovered, 3 were i'm
proved, g unimproved. | eloped, and 6
died. The report says:
OF the 45 whose insanity is OF less than one
years duration, have alread ybeen cured and
twenty more will probably yet recover; while
OF the 1872 chronic cases admitted, not more than
ten per cent. of them will ever recover. Moth
ing can show more clearly than these facts, the
unwelcomed truth that insanity. when Of long
duration. is incurable, while another and more
gratifying truth is equally we'll established
viz the durability of recent cases ofipsanity.
