ARMY UNIFORMs.-A recent order Of
the War Department gives official au-
thorization to the practice. which has
become almost universal among army
officers, with reference to the wearing of
badges indicative of rank. 1t permits
officers to dispense with shoulder straps
and the prescribed insignia of rank on
their horse equipments. The marks of
rank to be worn on the shoulder strap
will henceforth be worn on the shoulder.
Overcoats, pantalOOns, &C., similar to
those worn by private soldiers; nor are
ornaments on the hats, overcoats, forage
caps, sashes or epaulets longer required.

EXTENT OF GEN. GRANTS WORKS.
Mr.. Fulton, editor Of the Baltimore
Americon, visited the armies of the Po-
tonac and James recently, and says of
the extent of our works:
1.-THE defence line of Gen. Butler ex-
tends across from the AppOmattox to
the James at Dutch Gap, and thence in
land, almost hanking Fort Darling
The length Of these works is not less
than fifteen miles, formed of line of
heavy earth-works about five feet high,
interspersed every five or six hundred
yards with heavy Notifications, faced
with strong abatis inside of the picket
and vidette stations. Then there are
inner lines of works supporting the
outer lines, SO that the whole line of
breastworks and Notifications, from
General Meade's extreme left, to Gen
eral Buffers extreme right, is not less
than thirty-five miles, and, taking the
sinuosities and the supporting lines into
consideration, the whole works would
measure nearly one hundred miles in
length" r.
