STRENGTH AND ORGANIZATION OF THE
RUSSIAN ARMY.

The Emperor is the supreme chief OF
the Russian army, & he takes the com
mand himself of it in time of war. The
Field Marshals are under his immediate
orders. The allowances of the superior
officer are very moderate, they have,
however, certain expenses allowed them
for table, and some other cmoluments,
which are augmented in various ways,
for in this vcnal nation, public func-
tionarv, whether military or civil, rarely
lets slip an occasion of turning to account
the opportunities afforded by his station.
The pay of the subaltcrn officers ls re-
markabIy insufficient, and many must IN
some shape make sacrifice TO their
country in serving as lieutenants or cap
tains Of cavalry especially in the Guards.
In order to become an officer there must
be proofs of nobility, and of having been
previously admitted to military institu-
ton, but private soldiers, nevertheless,
may become officers, and even the high
est military honors are not inaccessible
