Capt W. A. w. Gait. of the steamer Ad Hine,
has made arrangements with this Department TO
convey all sick wounded or di. abled, furloughed
and discharged soldiers at one half fare.
When it is considered that the fare includes sub
sistence, this is a very generous arrangement.
1t is hoped this Department will soon be able
to report further arrangements with other Steam
boat lines for the conveyance Of soldiers at re-
duced rates.
In order to prevent imposition on officers Of
Steamboats,, who may be disposed to make as lib
eral arrangements as that above named, and in
order that soldiers may receive the benefits Of the
same, officers requested, in granting furloughs
or TO note the Of the furlough or
discharge at the bottom thereof, and sign the
same, IS these arrangements are made for the BEN
eft Of the soldiers. The State has no pecuCiary
interest in the matter. The soldiers Of the classes
referred TO, pay their own fare.
Soldiers should present their Burroughs Or as
