quanted with it, recounting the tests to which
had been subjected, and pointing out the names
of those who recommended 1t, several Of them,
men of the highest character, and of national
reputation and, suggested, that il, by his di-
rection, it could be put the supply list of me-
dicines for the army, If might be found eItremei
useful IN contributing to the health of the troop
operating IN miasmatlc districts.
The names of Henry C. Carey Jay Cook, Gov
Pollock and Geo. H. Stuart, (extensively known
as Presdent of the Christian Commission,) } were
particularly indicated, and especial attention
called to the letter of the latter. Mr.. Lincoln
looked over the several letters, dwelling some
what that of MIR. Stuarts, and at length OBJ
served, that the f.MIture' appeared to be highly
recommended, and by men who do not DO such
eli, he nanda and tfaF N lna N
remark in his peculiar vein, added, that IT would
not be proper for HIM to make positive order on
the Medical Bureau, but that he would go as tar
as he thought 1t was proper tor him to go. Then
| folding up the papers, he wrote the back of
them, and signed the recommendation, copy of

the ordinary channels. Yours respectfully,
