though, we presume, no one doubted for an
instant the unconstitutionalty OF members Of
either House of Congress holding military com.
missions from the United States while serving as
Senators or Representatives the question has rust
been set at rest by formal decision Of the Senates
Judiciary Committee.
Thus, members Of either House who aspire IN
positions Of generals also, must give up their
legislative character ere being commissioned by
the President as military officers.

Quite a number Of regimental and company
offers are resigning; more or less, dlilv They
are In some cases those who would otherwise be
subjects for courts martial, to avoid which they
accept the alternative of giving their respective
regiments the opportunity Of selecting persons
better fitted for military service in responsible
positions than themselves This quiet purging of
the army Of officers elected altogether on the
develsh-clever-fellow principle, will add greatly
to Its efficiency.

WASHINGTON letters say army movements
are now made under sealed orders, so that
regiment leaves brigade without giving
any iutimation of its destination to those
who have been its comrades; and in sew
eral instances officers who have come into
the city on twenty-four hours furlough,
have found it no easy task to find their
comrades again. This shows that the
General commanding is getting the army
of the Potomac into fighting trim and pre-
pairing for campaign. Every officer aud
man knows that he is well cared for, and
is ready to unhesitatingly obey orders
stopping for no explanations-suggesting
no changes-but ready to go aheadl
