SIR: In reference to the card left in person, by
James Mcguire, at the bar, for gentleman making
transient stop at Browns Hotel, wish to in
quire through the columns Of your paper, whe-
ther his claim to the title Of '.Colonel U. S. A."
proceeds from his having been appointed to COM
mand the new regiment Of infantry, authorised to
be raised by the act Of the 5th July, Instant
Having some general knowledge of the higher Of
fcers Of the army, am quite confident that no
such name is borne on the Army Register: but as
the Globe complains of sundry errors and omis-
sions in the list Of appointments and promotions
as published in the National Inteigencer Of the
lth instant, have thought barely possible that
this might be one Of them.
Now, sir, personally and by report, know
something Of the individual in question, nothing, it
is true, much to his credit but Of this it is not my
present purpose to speak. So far, however, as am
acqainted with his history, will give it, in order
individual aimed at in your qualification of the 18th
instant. Mcguire was, am informed, at one time
a porter in one of the Hotels in New York.
Subsequently pressman to the Lithographic
press attached to the War Department, but since
discontinued, and lastly sutler to the recruiting
depot of Marines at Gosport, which appointment
for aught | know to the contrary, he may still
hold. If such should prove to be the fact, think
an inquiry by the proper authority as to whether
he has taken the oath of naturalization would not
be amiss, Mcguire, being an Irishman by birth. At
any rate it would seem TO be due to the officers Of
the Army and Marine Corps that he should be
sript of his nonlme de guerre, and like the ass in
the lions skin suffer his long and silly bray
to procure for him that exposure and contempt
which his barefaced impudence and effrontry 81"
richly merit. r.
