Inspection and Muster Of the Fifty-Hsth Regf-
ment.
The Fifty-hfth regiment, N. G. s. N. r., was In
spected and mustered yesterday at 1ompkins square,
The day was very favorable and the attendance at
the parade was consequently large. The regiment
flied into the square shortly after two O'Clock and
TOOK up position on the east side. The men looked
very well and marched with steadiness. Line hav-
Ing been formed the usual formalities OF q review
were gone through with. General varlan, the COM
mandant OF the Third brigade. Of which the Fifty
NTH is part, was present on the ground with his
sau and number OF officers OF the National Guard.
As III the Inspections OF last week, which were fully
described III the HERALD, Brigadier General
Major O. Nj. Wentworth INSPECTED and mustered
tho regiment Colonel LIE Gal and Major Goldsmith
were absent and Lieutenant Colonel w. b. Allen,
VINO commanded, was the only field ofllcer present.
Under these circumstances a Close criticism on the
manGuvrcs of the regiment would be scarcely fair.
IL may, however, be stated that the line officers
were negligent III their duties. The salutes in the
march past were not given more correctly than
those OF the officers OF the regiments inspected
last week, and many mistakes were made, for
winch no excuse can DO offered. The marker placed
on the right flank Of the regiment had to get out OF

Ing IN the arnory during the coming winter, and
proper instruction OF noncomnAssoned officers, the
Fifty-1fth may reasonably expect to gain name In
the brigade for discipline and drill.
The muster Of the regiment showed 1926 rank and
file present on the ground. The ceremonies were
brought to close by a general review In honor OF
the inspecting 0ffcer, and the regiment soon after
marched from the square. First Lieutenant Maurer
acted as adjutant during the ceremonies OF review
and inspection.
The FiftyGith is the sixth and last regiment of the
Third brigade inspected The total strength OF the
brigade present at muster and inspection was 2024,
Us foows:-rhe First infantry, 1903; the Seventh.
