Arrangements with SteaInb oats.
Capt. W. A. W. Gait, Of the steamer AID Hine,
has made arrangements with this Department to
convey all sick wounded or disabled, furloughed
and discharged soldiers at one half fare.
When it is considered that the fare includes sub
sistence, this is a very generous arrangement.
It il 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 a. that above named, and in
order that soldiers may receive the benefits Of the
same, officers requested, in granting furloughs
or discharges to note the cause Of the furlough OF
discharge at the bottom thereof, and sign tho
Same, as these arrangements are made 70, the ben
eft of the soldiers. The State has no pecur iary
Interest in the matter. Tho soldiers Of the classes
referred to, pay their own fare.
Soldiers should present their furloughs or dis
charges for examination at the Offices Of Clerks Of
Steamboats, in order to procure tickets at the re-
ducea rates. n. y. BAKER,
