lay. This step was rendered necessary
from the fact that the state authorities
are very fast relinquishing control Of troops
that are passing over the muster line under
the authority of the general government.
It became necessary to assemble these
troops at once in order to meet the prob
lem Of their subsistence, no less than that
Of their equipment in the way Of arms,
clothing. camp and garrison equipage, to
say nothing Of the superior advantage OF
drill and instruction under trained officers.
The officers to organize these troops into
brfgades and divisions will be determined
upon very soon and be ordered to stations
accordingly.
At the close of work yesterday the total
number OF troops mustered was $500. TAX
ing into consideration the careful physical
examination to which these men have been
subjected, the progress has been wonder
fully rapid.
The following Is the assignment of troops
as ordered by Major General Miles:
