Mr. Speaker, hzre sixth objection 70 .hia
elii, AldI Il Is quite aa serious as any OF the
others L find that, in the ninth line of tie
OIL, 1t % provided that tbsfe shall be appoint
ed three aIds-ds-esm?, 10 bear TIE rank Of
captain, 10 De appointed BIZ the President, Gu
toe Recommendation of the commander Of the
DIVISION AS ths las now stands, generals
c0mma1aiHg divisions are entitled to this as
sisisnt sdjssAnt general, ranking as . captain,
aad 10 TWO aids, With the raak and pay of
Ie1terant. The fourth section of the act Of
July last. provides thar the aids, authorised
by the preceding section, shall be selected by
the respective generals from the officers of The
.7rHg car potHafesr corps. This bill reverses
that principle. IL provides that the three
aids, who aIs TO have the rank Of eaptsio, ara
70 DO appointed By the PrssidenS on tue re-
commeRdatlca of the commander Of the disi-
sion, without any limitation whatever as to
whether they shall be taken from the ofieers Of
the ARMY or from civil life. Nov [ think
thai OMISSION is > very signifcanf and very
Objectionable one.
