missions and instructions and be mustered

practicable from the officers and soldiers who
have served faithfully in the field and been
honoraby discharged The field officers will
in all cases be selected from veteran oflicers
Of known skill and experience in the field, and
who shall prove active in recruiting the regi-
ments. No one need apply for appointment
to a field office who has not had at least two
years active service in the field during the
present war. The time for recruiting these
regiments is short, and il is therefore neces-
sary that immediate action be taken by Local
committees and others to organize in the va
rious sub-dstricts, to encourage and stimu
late recruiting. All recruits under this order
will rendezvous at Camp Chase, near this
city, where the new regiments will be organ
ized and equipped B. r. CowAN,
