Matt A CORRILSPONDVNT.
The arrangements in contemplation respecting Brevet Field Of-
fleet% though not yet finally decided on, are supposed to be as
follow :—Their Companies are to be immediately taken from them,
and filled up from the Half-pay List and Lieutenants of 1809.
They ate then to have the option of retiring on the half-pay of 'Re-
gimental Major, or remaining on the full pay which they at pre-
sent receive, doing duty as Supernumeraries, or Majors at accolut,
until vacancies offer. In order to prevent an excess of Field Offi-
cers in any particular Corps, one only is to be retained in each, and
the juniors are to be transferred to other Regiments. Thus every
Battalion will have ten effective Captain% The Brevet Field Offi-
cers will be a great assistance, instead of (as they sometimes are in
iarris..ns) a hurthen to their respective Corps, and it will get rid
of that anomaly, not to be found in any other service, of a Captain
occasionally commanding a Lieutenant-Colonel.
