The last Congress, by great majorities in both
Houses and after full debate, directed Board
consisting of five officers from each of the grades
of captains commanders, and heutenants. TO
make careful examination into the efficiency of
the officers of the navy. They are directed to
report the names and rank of all officers who. in
their judgment are incapable of performing
promptly aud efficiently all their duty both
ashore and alodt. Those reported 50 Incapable
the President is directed 10 place reserved
list, on leave of absence pay or. if the ncapac-
itv be reported to be the result # their own
blameworihy Conduct. he is directed TO remove
them. In either event the vacancy is To be filed
by promotions of officers of capacity; bat those
taking the place Of officers gu the reserved list,
when called into active sovice, are only TO
ceive ihcr former cave pay augmented by the
difference between the leave and duty pay Of the
reserved officers.
