formation of ten new regiments passed the Sen

viso to the respective houses today. The House
promptly agreed TO it; and after some debate on
the proviso, it was adopted by the Senate without
division, but apparently by large majotity
The proviso, as it stands authorizes the President
to appoint all the officers, below the grade OF

soIutely, andnot subject to confirmation by the en-
suing session of the Senate.


We shall publish the law in tomorrow-even-

hail its passage with pleasure, and we trust that
no pains will be spared to fill up the regiments.
We are satisfied that the enthusiasm of the coun-

Executive and that their energies will be exerted
to officer and send gallant troops into the field.

which beats with The love of our beloved country"
