FORCE OF THE ARMY
The four regiments of Artillery --- Thirty - Six companies, of fifty
non-commissioned officers, artificers, musicians, and privates, 1,980.
Enlisted men for ordnance duties, 53. The seven regiments of Infantry
--- Seventy companies of fifty-one non-commissioned officers, musicians,
and privates, 3,570.
And the non-commissioned staff, 36.
Making a total of 5,568
Head Quarters of Gen. Brown, at Washington; of the Eastern Department,
under General Scott, at Governor's Island; of the Western, under Gen.
Gaines, at Louisville, Kentucky. Officers not retained to be considered
as disbanded on 1st June; all men released from arrest and proceedings
of courts martial, and all deserters exempt from punishment.
The new ARMY LIST engrosses our colums to day almost as entirely as the
subject has occupied public attention for some weeks past. This document
is, indeed, of no little importance to many individuals and their
friends in a personal sense, not to speak of the interests which, in a
general view, the community has in the composition of the Army.---- We
feel for the situation of those gentlemen among the dismissed officers
who had considered themselves embarked for life in the military
profession, and now find themselves stranded, at the mercy of the world,
with whose tempestuous waves their education has not taught them to
buffet. This fluctuating policy in regard to the army, fixing it at one
session of Congress, reducing and reorganizing (and almost
disorganizing) it at another; is calculated to render the army less
useful, and is seriously prejudiced.
