ont the entire stntc, and Designated a coart
Of reception In eaeh Congressional District
where the negroes would &c received aud or.
'ganiZed Into regiments. I designated Brig.
Gcn. Chctlain a. the Superintendent, who en-
tered upon the duty and continued il Its per
formance until July &, when he was relieved
at The request Of Major General Bur
bridge, commanding in Kentucky, mado
both to, you and myself, who desired
the superintendence as he had, rs l well
knew, taken special interest In this measure,
adyoeatingit 1t on all proper occasions, aud
with benefit to the service, rs he was then
the owner Of many blacks under these cir
change should be made; but never regret
ted 1t, believing that his higher duties OF
Commander in Kentucky would prevent his
personal attention to the superintendent.
The result proved as | had antici,
The duties to another officer, flrst to
Lieut.. Col. Hammond, and af1erward TO Col.
B1isbin, the latter Of whom I placed at the
head Of the 5th u S. co1orcd cavalry. The
report of these officers came to me through
Maj. Gen. Burbr1dge, but they had nothing
10 do with the establishment Of the system, i,
but only carried ont what had been ordered.
At this time found 1t next to impossible to
obtain the necessary medical officers for the
coloIed regiments. The grade of surgeons
could readily hare been filed by the promo
tion Of assistant surgeons Of volunteers, but
few, except IN occasional contract officer,
would take the position of assistant surgeon.
As the sanitary condition Of the men required
greater pumber Of medical officers, order
ed, On the 8th ofrJnly, Surgeon B. II. sar-
geant, OF my staff, to proceed to the Eastern
States and endeayor to procure from the
graduates of the medical schools as nany
physiclans as possible, the number then re-
quired being 10. By his energy aud aetiri-
t. he procured quite number, who, having
passed the Medical Boards at Boston and
elsewhere, were duly appointed, and the SER
vice was greatly benefited BY this measure.
JULY 10, Brisndier General Pile WAS relieved
as Superintendent in Missouri, and assigned to
duty In the field, and BEigadier General Ihos.
Ewing, Jr., stationed at St. Louis, was charg-
ed With the duty, who performed 1t eatisfac-
torily and with ability. ,.
On the 1st Of May, 1855, pursuant to your
instructions; / directed the dlseontinuance Of
all recruiting Of colored men In the Depart
mcnts OF Missouri and Arkansas, and the Nil
itary Divisions Of Mississippi and West Mis-
sfssippi; md also consolidated some Of the
disseminating three regi-
mcnts In Kentucky, one In Tennessee,
and two Ia Arkansas. Before this order
could be received by the troops operating in
the field, three additional regiments were
organized from the negroes gathered by Major
Gen. Wilson IN lis march through Alabama
