THE ARMY AND NAVY OF AMERICA.
To the Patrons OF the Herald.

We intend, for the future, TO devote portion of
the columns of this journal for the use and benefit
of the army and navy by giving, at regular inter
walls, afull account of such deaths, promotions and
changes, as may, from time to time, take place
among the defenders of our country on sea and
on land; together with perspicuous account oil
any new movements that may take place IN both
branches of the public service connected with the
war in Mexico.
Our patrons will al once perceive the import
lance Of this movement, when they reflect that
the army at present in the service of the United
States numbers some sixty-five thousand men,
including regulars and volunteers, and the navy
ten oc twelve thousand men. Each individual
of these large bodies OF men has, relatives and
friends in various parts of the country, who are
DESTROYS of obtang all the information possible,
that will directly indirectly affect those patri-
Otto men who have left their fresdes to peAo-
trate the interior Of Mexico at their country's
call, and who visit every sea for their country's
glory
In order TO bring this information home to them,
we have determined upon keeping an accurate
and reliable account of all army and naval move
ments, and publishing them for the information
OF the country, in portion of our journal We
intend that the movements of our gallant army
and navy shall form an important feature In the
