Errors In the New Revised Statutes.
The New York Rerads Washington cor
IOWA.
respondent says:

respondent says:
On the careful examination Of the Revised
Statutes very many important errors and
omissions have been discovered. The law
which authorized the President to assign an
acting chief to a military bureau; the law
which allowed whisky TO fatigue parties in
certain cases; the law which made beans y
part Of the army ration; the law which
forbids the drawing of government checks to
bearer; tine law which fixed the first assist
ant in the ordnance bureau, which defined
the duties of certain clerks in the War
Department, have all been omitted. The
law touching the retirement of army
officers has been materially and vi
tally changed, and leaves no option
with the President in retiring officers
under such circumstances. One of the
anomalies Of the new cOdi6ca'ion is the right
OF the President to appoint two and one
halt cadets to the Military Academy every
year. On examination of the codihcatioD,
it is found that the marginal and paginal
references do not refer to the sections
intended. great number of obsolete and
useless old statutes have been carefully
compiled; for instance. miltiaman must
appear upon parade, fortified with match
lock, port fire. q certain number of flints
and a pair OF bullet moulds, a requirement
suitable for the eighteenth century, but
hardly progressive enough for the c-nten-
NAL. In a word. the volume has been found
utterly worthless. and tho 10000 copies
printed by the government are only worth
for reliability so much waste paper. The
enacting clause whick makes the book
legal statute goes on to say that any old
laws, no part Of which are complied in said
volume. are laws still So the inference ia
drawn that everything is law not contained
in the nine pounds of paper and binding
denominated the Revised Statutes. This
clip ahod legislation reminds one of the law
which was passed in July. 1870. codifyipg
the patent laws, which substantially
abolished some of the principa! depart
ments Of the government and the force of
which was never admitted, owing to the
magnitude Of the error.
