The New Adjutant.

Lieut.. Colonel John X. Bennett, the
new commander OF the Fifth Infantry
and successor ofGeneral Lyon, has issued
an order establishing his headquarters
at Muskegon. Regarding the successor
TO Major Merton il has the following TO
say: "Adjutant James NJ. Merton hay-
ing been promoted TO assistant adjutant
general, First Brigade. NJ. n. G., as per
special orders, Capt. Frank e.. Whitney.
of Muskegon, Mich, is hereby detailed as
acting adiutant and all matters pertain
ing TO routine business should hereafter
be addressed to him." This is not looked
upon as permanent appointment, as
Captain Whitney is not likely to give I'D
his command OF the Muskegon company
TO be adjutant, but az he il a warm per
sonal friend of Col. Bennett it is sup
posed that he has been given the an
Dointment until the regimental election
when IT is to be decided who is to be the
next colonel.
The order also says that "orders and
TRANSPORTATION will be issued to officers
entitled to attend the regimental cleo
ton. to be held January ID, 81" 1t is
assumed from this that the election will
be held at Muskegon and the officers of
the local company will probably attend.
Capt. Whitney, the new adiutant. is
well known to thelocal militia boys, hav-
ing served as adjutant in the camp of
III, when he was first lieutenant OF the
Muskegon company.
