HEAD QUARTERS. DEPARTMENT OF THE MIss,
CAxP ON CoRrSrH ROAD, hlss1ssIrPf,
May Is, 1862.
Adjt Gen1 NJ B. Baker, Clinton. Iowa
GKNERAL:-Your communication Of the 18th
in rslation 70 the consolidation OF Regiments,
is just received.
Landing q number of companies, regiments
reduction Of force, were totally unfit for ser.
vice and greatly disorganized. To remedy
temporarily this evil, commanders OF divisions
were permitted to attach such fragments to
other corps. or to unite two or three together
for temporary service. This arrangement, -
necessary at the time, in order to restore eff
cheney to the army. was intended to last only
short time. and it Was specially directed that
no consolidation could be made except by the
Governors of States.
Some officers and men seem to have misun-
dsrstood the intent Of this arrangement, and
hence the dissatisfaction OF which you speak.
No troops of one State will be consolidated
with those of another State as companies or
regiments. except bv orders of the Governors
themselves Very reepectfully.
Your obd't sert,
II. W. HALLECK, MAJOR General.
The reasons given by Gen Halleck should be
Satisfactory to those interested, as it shows he
is doing the hest thing in HE power, under the
circumstances.
At the same time Gen. Baker wrote, making
inquiries. he addressed smother letter to Gen.
HalIeck regarding the exchange Of prisoners,
and in reply received the following:
HEAD QuARrERs, DEPARTMENT OF THE Miss,

Adt CenI ". B. Baker, Clinton, Iosa
GENERAL Your letter of the 18th, in rels-
t;on to exchange Of prisoners of war. is just
received. Some two hundred privates have
been exchanged within the lest day or two,
and understand from General Beauregard
that he proposes to release more very coon on
agreement that send him an equal number.
He. however. declines to release any officers
who are prisoners, unless make their ex.
change general-that 10 for all, which l have
no authority to do. l shali continue to ex-
change whenever can.
1t is now ascertained that the number cap
tured by the enemy at the battle Of Pittsburg
Landing was very email most Of those at first
reported as /" missing" being s'ragglers who
have since joined their regiments.
Very respectfully Your obd't serv't,
Ii. w. HALLECK, Major General.
We believe Gen. Halleck is doing every
thing In his power to secure the return of oul
brave soldiers now in the hands Of the enemy
and will continue to do SO until all are ex-
changed.

SOMETHING WoRTA Nor1crNG.-It

SOMETHING WoRTA NoTICrNG.-It
should be generally knows that At about this
time Of the year the sugsr maple tree
sheds iss seed. and that tbsss seeds planted
right away will send up young shoot some
two OF three feet high during the present Sea-
son. There is not more valuable and beau
tiful shade tree indigenous to The latitude than
the sugar maple, while, at the same time they
ale scarce. Now the object Of this paragraph
10 to call the attention Of our citizsns and the
farmers Of Scott county to the fact that they
can now secure the seed and put themselves in
the way to raise the moe. mag gni6cent shade
trees in the country. They require NO great
amount Of care, only to keep the cattle from
bro wsing them down. and in . few years the
country will be blessed with their lovely. ap-
pearance and grateful shade Is it not worth
trying? A very little atteGstion and 20 ex
psnss will greatly enhance the beauty and
value Of property. Those who don't want to
take the trouble Of picking up the seed. can
get two quarts for only dime at the Hawk.
eye Store. We hope this will not be neg.
leeted.
Dome GFINELY.-Gentlemen who have
turned their attention to grape planting this
Spring, inform US that the vines are coming
along finely. even better than they expected.
There have probably been set out not less
than twenty thousand vines in this city during
the String. and it ia safe to cay that ninty y.fve
per cent. Of them are destired to flourish, and
in year or two, to rejoice in abundant clua.
tsrs of that royal fruit. 1t is almost inspiring
TO think Of it. The future history Of Daven-
pert will smack Of delicious grapes ard rare
old domestic wine.
The old and those wires coming in THE year
show every sign Of an abundant crop Grow
ers are more strongly than ever persuaded
that they have ''good thing" in their pos
session. Iustead Of being dependent upon
Cincinnati for our grapes our people will sup
ply goodly portion Of the demand his COM
ing Fall, and in three years at the outside,
they will be in condition TO export many
hundred weight from tho vineyards th at will
decorate the sunny slopes Of our beautiful
city.

gather few items relative to its progress the
past year. The College is now $l5, 900 10 debt,
of which $4,000 is spledged. The remaining
$4,000 was promised in Baltimore in 1860,
but tie political troubles have prevented any
realization of that amount. and it is doubtful
if it will now be obtained.
The Rev. Mr.. Dennison, who has died during
the year. bequeathed 100 volumes of valuable
books to the library. The Rev. Sylvester
Nash, Of Illinois, deceased, left 800 volumes.
also valuable manuscripts and shells for the
cabinet. John R. Murray. Esq. Of Western
