tirely, and, therefore, suggest to the
Secretary that he await the result of the
tests be has already ordered, before mourning
the expense of the second fifty thousand.
All officers agree that the present musket is
an admirable weapon, but the breech-lock
not suited to the carbine and entirely out Of
the question for the pistol; whereas the Rem
inston system is equally suited to all, so
that We could have identically the same cal
ibre and cartridge for all arms, matter Of
Infinite importance in action, and especially
so for our troops, who are often detached
from their own baggage for months, and
come on for q re-supply OF ammunition at
posts where they frequently find no cartridges
suited to their special weapon. The Reming-
ton is already adopted by the navy, and this
Is an additional good reason for Its adoption
in the army, for in combined operations both
arms and ammunition could be mutually in
terchanged. Prior to our civil war We vir-
tually looked for a system Of tactics To the
experience Of European armies; and As act
ually occurred, one had the infantry tactics
Of one nation, cavalry Of another, and artil-
lery Of mixed sort, 50 that there was no
just harmony between shem.
There Is no good reason why the same gen.
eral rules of command and signals should
not be uniform for all arms Of service, and
this board has proceeded on this theory.
Until the tactics Is received properly correct
ed and ready for the printer l shall forbear
any comments further than to saw the time is
most opponune for the adoption of the i'm
proved system of tactics for all arms of the
service, and before any steps are taken for
their adoption, recommend that some COM
pensation be given to general Upton for the
use that may have been made OF his system
of infantry tactics that have been heretofore
adopted and used by the infantry.
In conclusion, | would merely renew a
former recommendation, that reasonable an
nual appropriations lie asked for barracks,
both to replace the unhealthy classmates Of
our seacoast forts, and to shelter from tn,
weather the men whom the national nece--
sites force lis to station on the dreary and
inhOspitable regions Of the interior of I'll,
