Military Affairs, reported bill to promote Gen.
Rufus SaXtOn to place on the Army Register
next after Gen. Stewart Van Vliet.
MessTs- BUTLER, OfMass., and SGHOFIELD.
Of Pa, opposed the bill on the ground that the
effect would be 10 put Gen. Saxton above COL
Ekin.
Mr.. BUTLER characterized this as a renewal
Of the old tight between the regular officers and
the volunteers, and he charged that the regulars
were hanging around Washington and pecking
at Congress while the officers who were ap-
pointed from the volunteers Tere,in active SER
vice on the plains.
Mr.. MCDOUGALL, Of N. Y, defended the
officers Of the regular army from the charge
made by Gen. BUTLER, and said the comm luders
who most distinguished themselves in the late
war, on both sides, were graduates of West Point
The gentleman from Massachusetts was a dIstin-
guiShed volunteer officer; why didn't he do some
thing while in command Of an army?
Mr.. BUTLER replied that regular army off,
GERS would not permit him to do anything.
Mr.. MACDOUGALL inquired how they could
prevent this.
Mr.. BUTLER replied that regular officers
would not obey his orders. After the war he
volunteers went home and did not fear starVA-
ton if they lost their places in the army.
Mr.. GARFIELD expressed surPriLe that Mr..
BUTLER should make the loud assertion that reg
ulsr officers refused to. obey, his orders.
Mr. BUTLER said he hId reference only to
two CORPS commanders who were regulars and
who always thWarted him..
