Troops Raised in Iowa.

The Davenport Democrat Of the llth
inst, contains tho following figures show.
ing the number Of men this State has
! furnished since the first call for troops
until the present time. The estimate was
| prepared at the Adiu,ant Generals Office
/ from documents there on file. and cal.
therefore be relied upon as correct:
Under CAL for 7j,000-One regiment
OF infantry. three months, 800.
CuH for ,0O0-SiXteen regiments of
infantry, Nos. , to Il inclusive, 3 Years.
li00O
Five regiments Of cavalry, Nos. | to 5
inclusive, 3 years. $500.
One company Ct cavalry, for frontier
service, 100,
Three batteries light artillery, Nos, to
three. $50.
Inder Call for 800 Oo0-Ninctcen req.
iments OF infantry, Nos. Is to 81 inclu-
sive. three years, 1880
O"e regiment of infantry, No 81, Gray
Boards, 3 years, $50
Three regiments of infantry, Nos. SO to
40 inclusive, years, 200.
Three companies to supply vacancy in
li,h infantry, 2Sj.
Two regiments OF infantry, Nos. A. to
43 inclusive, l,S00.
One battalion OF infantry, No. A as
sharp shooters. say, 400
10 this amount there should be added
the number OF recruits for regiments sent
out Of the State, which is eslmated al not
less than 5000, making in all 50.0S5
soldiers furnished by the State. The same
paper says that in addition to this large
number of men belong to OUT side organi
cations, ard consequently are not recog-
nized. There are some two or three com
panies in Kansas made up from Iowa, a
large number enlisted in Illinois and MANY
IN Missouri. Iowa has full company in
the Pennsylvania llh cavalry, and a con.
siderable number among the Wisconsin
boys. Taken altogether, the figures are
rather magnificent.

instant young woman by the name of Pye,
living midway between Shippensburg and
Newburg, Cumberland county, was shot dead
by her brother, lad of some ten. or twelve
years of age. The boy took gun which had
been standing in a lower room of his fathers
house and was conveying it up stairs when
he observed his sister engaged in making
bed, and raising up told her he was s'going to
shoot her," Pulling the trigger the gun went
off, the load lodging in the head of the uDfor-

states that he was unconscious of there being

STEALING FROM MPRIsoNERs.-All the restraints
which keep men from plunging into the lowest
depths Of meanness and depravity, seems to
have been thrown off by the rebels. 1t is now
well established that the supplies of clothing,
&C., gent from Fortress Monroe by Gen. Wool,
for the use of our imprisoned soldiers at Rich
mond never reached them. Our returned pris-
oners all testify to this fact. The New York
Times furthermore says that our prisoners in
Charleston jail never received the money sent
them by their friends. This the testimony of
returned prisoners from there! We hope the
Government will hasten to exchange these
poor fellows, and get them out of the clutches
of these thieves. They live by stealing the
labor of their negroes, and the habit has grown
so strong upon them, that they stop at nothing
to crafty the propensity.

The Town OF RoMNEY VA.--As Romney is
becoming place of some notoriety as
strategic point, short description of the town
and its vicinity may prove interesting to many
of our readers. The town itself is beautifully
located, resting upon the South Branch of the
Potomac, about eighteen miles from its juno
tion with the North Branch. 1t is surrounded
on all sides with diclivitous hills and noun
tains, and if well fortified would be almost i'm
pregnable to an advancing army. 1t has been
in a measure fortified by nature, and only
needs the band of science to make it power
full post for purpose of defence. 1t is forty
two miles from Winchester, on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, and twenty five miles south
of Cumberland, Nd. 1t is the shire town of
Hampshire county, and contains about five
hundred inhabitants. The town was founded
by Lord Fairfax, and is one of the oldest in
that section of Virginia.

GooD.--Gen. Halleck has issued an order to
the effect that all unpaid kilograms to his head
quarters, on business not requiring immediate
answer, and which could have been transmit
ted through the mails in time for all needfu
purposes, will be charged on the pay rolls of
the officers thus teIegraphing and the amount
collected out of their pay. The same order
would apply to other departments of the army,
and be productive of like economy. In the
matter of telegraphing, it will some day be
developed, existed an enormous expense to
