MASTERING THE GUARDS IN
sUBsIDENCE OF THE DISPOSITION TO
CRITICISE.
Comparatively Few of the Men Re-
jectcd-New Appointments
War of Surgeons.

Yesterday was unquestionably the most
disagreeable day the Indiana soldiers have
yet spent in camp. but, Notwithstanding the
penetrating weather and the general dis
comfort, the routine work of mastering the
men into the United States service went
steadily forward.
There was a marked subsistence of the
tendency among officers and men to criticise
and threaten and corresponding increase
in good work. They are beginning to realize
that being a soldier is not an affair like
membership in a social or political club and
it is probable that all will soon understand
that the War Department is in control.
There seems to be room for plenty of spec
ulation upon the question of whether or
not General Mckee will be appointed a
brigadier general. There are warm tips
from Washington every few minutes one
saying that he will be appointed and an
other that he will not The Governor, while
very hopeful that he will be appointed, has
provided for the other contingency by hold
ing open for him the colonelcy OF the First
Regiment
