U. 5. CoIored Troops.

A few hints on this subject may be well
timed:
First. To the Golored men.
l. The President and Secretary of War have
devoted much time and attention to this subject;
have heard all sides; made up their minds to
have the regiments formed and we'll ofRcered-
which Is the chief condition of success. Do
not listen to the man who tells you the President
and Secretary are opposed TO their own plan.
2. Do not imagine there is any dearth of
white men wanting to be officers, nearly two
thousand applications have already been made
at Washington alone. Thousands of others
will be made at soon as it is generally known
they are received.
3. The danger TO you is that untried and In
experienced officers will get places. Many OF
these will prove incompetent. Use all your
influence to secure as field officers men who
have won their honors in battle; who have ex-
perience and courage, who know how to take
care Of troops in camp and field. Get as many
captains and lieutenants of the same kind as
possible.
4. Have nothing 10 do with any white man
who wants an office and who cannot produce
his authority from the War Department to re.
cTuit.
s. To prevent your being imposed on by i'm.
pudent pretenders, the Secretary of War has
organized board to examine applicants for
commissions. The board examines fairly, spe.
cites the grade the applicant is competent to
take, and then the War Department gives him
authority to recruit. He gets his commissien
when the prescribed number of men iB ready
| for muster into service.
q. II there are eighty of you who wish TO en-.
list, write letter to the "Chief Of Bureau for
COlored Troops, Washington, d. G., ;" and an
officer will probably be sent to take charge OF
you, and take you TO a regiment. At any rate
you will be told what 10 do.
7. Assoon as you are mustered in, the United
States will provide for you; but not before.
To white men We say;
l. II you are a capable officer or can become
one, offer your own services and keep out in,
capables. Apply at once TO the Adjutant Gdn.
eral for authority to appear before the Board,
sending with the application your testimonials
to good moral character and standing. When
you have passed the examination, 10 to re-
cruIting on the authority Of the War Depart.
meut. Good officers mako good soldiers.
2. II you are an abOlitionist, aid actively the
properly authorized recruiting officers. Get
volunteers, contribute TO pay their expenses
until mustered In, see 10 It that excellent Off
GERS, returned home with discharged regiments
apply to be examined by the Board.
II you seek the bubble reputation at the
cannon's mouth" your place Is with the col.
ored troopB. They will be followed by na'
tlOn'R eyoB. With good leaders and OiIcers
they must win glory, for they arc lBnrnd 10
