special science appropriate to it, and bec ining well

would have to perform in war, will learn in those
extensive plains how, when assembled, they mutu-
ally support each other, and co-operate by their
combinations in their general action in marches,
combats, and battles. Soldiers, your Gtneral-in-
Chief, whom many of you have known for years,
and who finds among you old and glorious cern-
pauions in armq, is the more happy and proud to
command you that he has confidence in your good
will, in your warlike qualities, and in your de-
votedness to the Emperor, the living image of our
great country."
