the army had been decided upon by the

change. The cap now worn is supplan-
ted by felt hat with brim 81 inches wide
and crown St inches high, bound with
ribbed silk for officers and double stitched
for men. The trimmings for general off
GERS are as follows: Gold cord, with
acorn shaped ends; the brim of the hat
looped up on the right side, and fastened
with an eagle attached to the side of the
hat; three black ostrich feathers on the
left side; gold embroidered wreath in
front, on black velvet ground, encircling
the letters U. s. in silver, old English
characters. For other classification of
officers, and for privates there are similar
trimmings, varying slightly in each dis
tinctive grade or class. The change also
extends to the pantaloons and coat, but
in respect to them it is confined to the
trimmings of the latter and the stripe of
