The Uniforms of the Regular Army.

The uniform worn by the United
States army5at the breaking out of the
war had undergone butslittle change for
many years past, and that little mostly
in the style of the headgear. The color
of the uniform dress coat was the same
for all grades and all branches of the
service,-Yiz, dark blue cloth-the differ
ent arms being distinguished by the color
of the facings worn on the coat and the
stripes that decorated the trousers. These
faciugs as prescribed by the army regu-
lations. at the beginning of the war were
yellow for the cavalry and engineers,
scarlet for the artillery, sky blue for the
infantry and crimson for the ordnance.
All officers were to wear a frock coat
Of dark blue cloth, single breasted for
captains and heutenants, double breast
ed for all other grades. Thecoat forall
enlisted footmen was single breasted
frock coat, with nine buttons placed at
equal intervals, brass scales being worn
on the shoulders, while for the enlisted
men of the cavalry and light artillery a
dark blue jacket was to be worn in lieu
of frock coat.-Selected. D
