To the People Of Ioro:
Alter a careful settlement with the War
Department., and adjustment of credits

recent ehlstu.Gn;s, We are grat,hed IN be-
ing able TO announce that all demands bv
the u ,vernment upon this State for troops
have been filled. ana that We are placed
beyond the liabilities of q draft uuder the
impending call for 300 600 one years man.
We have also effected distribution Of
the men for which credits have 90 far been
given to The State by which each county
will be credited with their Iuo proportion
Of these men, and the several wards and
townships vii! have approximate justice
done them.
This settlement, however, only relieves
US from the present demand, and We must
bear in mind that until the war terminates
We are not exempt.
Should another call be required we
shall assure the General Government that
The people OF Iowa, as heretofore, will
meet it promptly.
And in view Of the proba bilities Of
further call we urge that recruiting be
continued with al! possible energy, and
advise our able.boded men WHO can now
assist tue Government 20 avail themselves
of this opportunity to assist in giving the
finishing blow TO the rebellion.
The efficiency OF our veteran regiments
demands that they should be speedily ed
up, aud this is due as Il matter of justice
to them, As well AS to the country.

success with unla'ering devotion, aud
fear'essly vindicased its policy against all
enemies and truducers. Prouder still is

suited flag, your soldiers have been con
stant!y in the front, performing the longest
marches, particip atiug il the severest bat
ties, and bearing themselves on all occa.
sons with the most conspicuous gai!an,ry.
Secure in the admiration OF grateful
