WASHINGTON. March 10, 1864.
Colonel Conrad Baker, A A Il. VI General.
The President OF the United States has made
a call for two hundred thousand GOO 900 men

FIVE hundred thousand The quota will be two
hfths (2-5,hs) Of the quota Of i've hundred thou

Under this new cali the quota Of Indiana. ac-
cordng 10 The ratio adopted under the call in
October last, will be IL Cos but according to the
assignment in the letter addressed to Col. BAKER,
above quoted, will be 1905 men The excess
furnished by the State over former calls Is al
most double the quota under the last, yet is not
unlikely that, under the operation OF the section
quoted from the act of February 9th, 1854, as
construed by the Provost Marshal General. the
draft NAV fall upon number OF counties that
have failed to do their part. As before stated
the liabilities aud credits of each county will Ia
given as soon as the necessary data can be pro
cured in the Adjutant Generals office. and when
that has been done the quota of each county can
be approximately distributed among the several
