Iowa City, in speaking of the 9Th Iowa
Cavalry, says:
For a week past, the Iowa 9th Cavalry,
has been in camp at this place, but has
now left for Sioux City. Ii is Gne reg-
ment, and differed by good, noble, and
brave men. What is extraordinary about
the regiment is, that you cant 6nd SIM
gle Abolitionist, among them all. and, if
there was one, bis peace of mind would
be somewhat on the decline. Every man
is of the true blue, and never think it dis.
grace to be called a " Copperhead," that
emblem of liberty. They are all dissatis.
fed with the policy of the administration,
and say they did not volunteer to fight far
the "nigger." This regiment viii make
its mark among the merciless Indians, and
it is good policy for the party in power to
put it out West, rather than to send it
into Dixie"
