U. s. ARMY.--The Army Register for
1889 has just made its appearance. We
find that our present force OF regular soldiers
consists of nineteen Regiments all told, as
follows ten Regiments Of Infantry, aver
aging ten companies OF 20 men each; four
OF Artillery, averaging IL companies Of
about so men each one OF mounted Rife
men, two Of Calvary, and two Of Dragons
each OF the latter numbering ten companies
Of 60 men. II would BE- difficult to arrive
at a correct estimate OF the actual fighting
material at the disposal Of the War Depart.

Of our Army is little over or under 10000.
