Chicago and IoEa Central Ra11rond, 1,
The trestle work for the first, or east epao
Of the bridge acreEs the Mississippi river, at
Clinton, is now being put up, and am in
formed By those who oughs to know, TINT
the bricge will be ready for crossing, By the
fist IF January, 1s65-the thing most de-
" utly wished for.
The truck OF the Chicago and Iowa Cen.
tral RAILROAD is now extended to and across
College Farm, ten miles west Of Nevada,
DopIIaas g. Brown, the contractors, are now
putting up the Btation-houee, which is loca-
ted abou halt mile east Of tue Farm. The
new station is to be called Ames. In honor
pleasure Of riding over this ten miles Of
truck the other day, and perceived b1t Lit.
tie, If any difference between 1t aud the old
track, 20 thoroughly lave the contractors
done their WORK. The cars will run
to This new station as soon ss the, de-
pot and other things can be got ready for
ose. It will then gtre the railroad
needed-plenty Of timber. That portioaa
OF the country Ia tbs best settled, and no.
tice good many ueW firms being opened.
The distance from Ames to Dss Mol1es Is
but twenty-nine miles; and that pest to all
Iowa traTe1ers-the Sunk bottom-wi1l be
avoided. Man ind beast msy well be thank-
tnl Tor this removal. LAST week Mr.. Talcott,
Chief Engineer Of the Chicago and North
western Railroad, made tour Of Inspection
to the Des A1oines 11yer, to see about the pro-
priety Of establishing terrg at Lunde's Point
and opening direct wagon road from Ames
to PaIoro, thus shortening the distance
some twenty.three miles to Council Bluffs
and Omaha / did not learn what conclusion
be csme to, but it seems to be matter that
the travelling public need and require.
The grading for nine miles more track will
be ready by the 18th instant, and the bridges
ard culye1ts are nearly out Of the way. But
I think it very doubtful 1t the cara will ruu
fb1ther thnn Ames before spring. and then
Iot until the ro:d Is complete to Boonsboro.

Major General Sam. JONES' Commanding Con
tcdcTitc Forces, Department Of Sou til Caro-
lima, Georgia and Florida:
GENERAL: have to acknowledge the receipt
this day of your communication of the 18th
inst, informing me that five Generals and forty
five field officers Of the United States army,
prisoners Of war, have been turned over by you
to Brig. General Ripley, with Instructions to
see that they are provided with quarters in
part of the city occupied by non-combatants-
the majority of which latter, YOU state, arc
women and children. Yon add that YOU deem
it proper to inform INC that it is part. of the
city which has bcen for many months exposed
to the fire Of our guns Many months since
Major General Gilmore, United States army,
notified. General Bcaurcgard, thon command
ing in Charleston, that the city would be bonn
barGcd. This notice was given that non-com-
batants might be- removed, and thus women
and Children spared from harm. General Beaurc-
gard, in communication to Gen. Gilmore, dated
August %, 1868, informed him that the non
conbatant population of Charleston would be
removed with all possible celebrity. That women
and children lave been since retained by YOU
in a part Of the city which has been for many
months exposed to fire is matter decided by
your own sense Of humanity.
| must, however, protest against your action
in thus placing dctcncelcss prisoners Of war in
position to constant bombardmcnt. 1t is an
indefcnsiblc act Of cruelty, and can be designed
only to prevent continuance Of our fire upon
Charleston. That city is depot for military
supplies. 1t contains not merely arscnals, but
also foundrics and factories for the manufacture
of munitions fwar. In its shipyards several
armed iron-clads have already been completed,
while others are still upon the stocks in course
of construction. Its wharycs and the banks of
