At sea, the guard will mount with side-arms only. The of- liccr of the guard will be the officer of the day. 217. Sentinels will be kept over the fires, with buckets of water at hand, promptly to extinguish fires. Smoking is prohibited bettceen decks or in the cabins, at all times ; nor shall any lights bv? allowed be- tween decks, except suoh ship lanterns as the master of the transport may direct, or those carried by the officer of the day in the execution of his duty. 218. Regulations will be adopted to enable companies or messes to ooukin turn ; no others than those whoso turn it is will ba allowed to loiter round or approach the galleys or otiier cooking places. 219. The comuiandiug officer will make arrangements, in concert with thw master of the vessel, for calling the troops to quarters, so that in case of alarm, by htorm, or lire, or the approach of the enemy, every man may repair promptly to his station, But he will take care not to crowd the deck.. The troops not wanted at the guns, or to assist the sailors, and those- who cannot be advautageouslj*^ employed with small arms, will he formed as u reserve between decks. 220. -Ul Ih'o troops will turn out at — A. M., without arms or uniform.^, and (in warm weather) without shoes or stockings; when every indindual will be clean, his handn, face and feet washed, and hi*S hair combed. The same personal inspection will be repeated thirty minutes before sunset. The cooks alone will be exempted from one of the.se inspection per day, if necessary. 221. Recruits or awkward men will be exercised in the morning and evening in the use of arms, an hour each time, when the weather will permit. 222. Officers will enforce cleanlinoss nn indispensable to health. "When the weather will permit, l>edding will be brought on deck every morning for airing. Tubs may be fixed on tho forecastle for bathing, or the men may be placed in tlie chains and have buckets of water thrown over them, 223. Between decks will not be washed oftener than once a week, and only wlien the weather is fine. The boards of tho lower berths will be removed onco or twice a week to change the straw. Under the direc- tion of the Surgeon and the officer of tiic day, frequent fumigations will be performed betv»'een ^eoks. The material required are — common salt four ounces ; powdered oxide of manganese, one ounce; sulphuric acid, one ounce, diluted with two ounces of water. The diluted acid is poured*over the other ingredients in a basin placed in a hot sand bath, Solutions of chloride of lime and chjoride of ainc are excellent disia^ lecting agents. quartermaster's department. 103 224. During voyages-in hot weather, the master of the vessel "will be desired to provide wind sails, which will be kept constantly hungup, and frequently examined, to see that they diuw well, and are not ob- Btructed. 225. During cooking hours, the officers of companies visit the ca- boose, and see that the messes are well prepared. The coppers and other cooking utensils are to be regularly and well washed, both before and after use. 226. The bedding will be replaced in the berths at sunset, or at an earlier hour when there if^ a prospect of bad weather ; and at tattoo every man not on duty will be in his berth. To insure the execution of this regulation, the officer of the day with a lantern, will make a tour between decks. 227. Lights will be extinguished at tattoo, except such as are placed under sentinels. The officer of the day will see to it, and report to the commanding officer. The (fficers' lights will be cxtinguislied at 10 o'clock, unless special permission be given to continue them for a longer time, as in case of sickness or other emergency. 228. For the sake of exercise, the troops will be occasionally called to quarters by the beat to arms. Those appointed to the guns will be frequently exercised in the ugc of them. The arms and accoutrements will be frequently inspected. The metallic parts of the former will be often wiped and greased again. 229. The men will not be allowed to sleep on deck in hot weather or in the sun ; they will be encouraged and required to take exercise on deck, in squads by .succession, when necessary. 230. At morning and evening parades, the surgeon will examine the • men, to observe whether there be any appearance of disease, 231. The sick will, as far as practicable, be separated from the healthy men. On the first appearance of malignant contagion, asignal will be nmde for the hospitnl vessel, (it there be one in compiiny,) and the diseased men removed to her. 232. A good supply of hospital stores and medicines will be taken on each vessel, nnd used only for the sick and convalescent;. 233. The surgeon will guard the men against costiveness on ap- proaching a hot climate. In passing through the West Indij^, to the Southern coast for instance, and for some weeks after landing in those latitudes, great care is required in the use of fruit, as strangers would not be competent to judge of it, auvl most kinds, after long voyages, a^e prejudicial. 234. In harbor, where there is no danger from sharks, the men may bathe ; but not more than ten at a time, and attended by a boat. 235. In fitting up a vessel for the transportation of horses, care is to be taken that the requisite arrangements are made fur conveniently feeding and cleaning them, and to secure them from injury in rough weather by ropes attached to breast straps and breeching, or by other suitable means ; and especially that proper ventilation is provided by openings in the upper deck, wind sails, &c. The ventilation of steam- ers may be assisted by using the engine for that purpose. 236. Horses should not be put on board after severe exercise or when heated. In hoipting them on board, the slings should be made fast to a hook ^t the end of the fall, or the knot tied by an expert seaman, so 104 quartermaster's department. that it may be "well secured and easily loosened. The horse shouid be run uii quickly, to prevent him from plunfjing;, and should be steadied by guide ropes. A halter is placed un him before he is lifted"^rom the ground. 237. On board, care is to be taken that the horses are not overfed ; bran should form part of their ration. The face, eyes and nostrils of each horse are to be washed at the usual stable hours, and, occasionally, the mangers sliould le washed and the nostrils of the horses sponged with vinegar and water. 2e»S, In loading vessels with stores for a military expedition, the cargo of each should bo composed of an assortment of such stores as ♦ may be available for service in case of the non-arrival of others, and they shiailu be placed on board in such a manner that they mswy be easily reached, in the order in which they are required fur service. Each stnre-ship should be marked, at the bow and stern, on both sides, in large characters, with a distinctive letter and number. A list is to be made of the stores on board of each ves-sel, and of the place where they arc to be found in it: a copy, of this list to be se.nt to the chief officer of the proper department in the expedition, or at the place of des- tination. BATTLES. 239. Before the action, the Quartermaster of the division mtikes all the necessary arrangements for the transportation of the wounded. He establishes the ambulance depots in the rear, and gives his assistants the necessary instruction for the service of the ambulance wagons and other means of removing the wounded. , 240. The ambulance depot to which the wounded are carried or di-- rected for immediate treatment, is generally established afc the most convenient building nearest the field of battle. A red fiag marks its place, or the way to it, to the conductors of the ambulances and to the wounded who can walk. 241. The active ambulancos follow the troops engaged to succor the wounded and remove them to the depots ; for this purpose the conduc- tor should ahvays have the necessary assistants, that the soldiers may have n6|fcxcuse to leave the ranks for that object. 242. The medical director of the division, after consultation with the Quartermaster-General, distributes the medical officers and hospital attendants at his disposal, to the depots and active ambulances. He will send otficers and attendants when practicable, to the active ambu- lances, to relieve the wounded who require treatment before being re- moved from the ground. He will sec that the depots and ambulances are provided with the necessary apparatus, medicines and stores. He will take post and render his professional services at the principal depots. 243. If the enemy endanger the depot, the Quartermaster takes the orders of the Genenil to remove it or strengthen its guard. 244. The wounded ir the depots, and the sick are removed as soon as possible to tho hospitals that have been established by the Quartermas- ter-General of the army on the Hanks or rear of the army. 245. zifter an action, the officers on ordnance duty collect the muni- tions of war left on the field, and make a return of them to the^General^ quartermaster's department. .105 The Quartarmaster's Department coUects the rest of the public property, captured, and make the returns to headquarters. BAGGAGE TRAINS. 246. The hoggage train -of general headquarters and the trains of tho several divisions are each under the charge of an officer' of the Quarter- master's Department. These officers command and conduct the trains under the orders they receive from their respective headquarters. AVheu the trains of different divisions march together, or the train of a division marches with the train of general headquarters, the senior Quartermas- ter directs the whole. 247. The Assistant Quartermaster has charge of the wngons, horses, equipments, and all means of transport employed in the service of the regiment. Under the orders of the Colonel, he assembles them for the march, and maintains the order and police of the train in park on the march. On marches, the regimental trains are under the orders of the Quartermaster of the division. When the march is by brigade, the senior Assistant Quartermaster in the brigade, or the Quartermaster of the brigade has the direction of the whole. The necessary wagon- masters, or non-commissioned officers to act as such, are employed with tho several trains. 24S. None but the authDri/.cd wngons are allowed to march with the train. The wagons of the several headquarters, the regimental wagons, and the wagons of sutlers authorized by orders from headquarters io march with the train, arc all to be conspicuously marked. 249. When the train of headquarters is to have a guard, the strength of the guard is regulated by the General. Generals of Brigade guard their trains by the men attached to the train of the first regiment of their brigades. The regimental trains are loaded, unloaded, and guard- ed, as far as practicable, by convalescents and men not effective in the •ranks ; in the cavalry, by dismounted men. When the guard of a train is the escort for' its defence, the regulations in regard to convoys and escorts take effect. 250. Habitually each division is followed by its train, the regimental trains, uniting at the brigade rendezvouH. When otherwise, the order for the movement of the divisions, brigades, and regiments contains the necessary directions in regard to the assembling and marching of the respective trains. The several trains march in an order analogous to the rank of the generals, and the order of battle of%the troops to which they belong. Trains are not allowed in any case to be in the midst of the tro()p«, or to impede the march of the troops. 251. The wagon-masters, under the orders of the officers of the Quar- termaster's Department, exercise the necessary restraints over the teamsters and servants who leave their teams, or do not proporly con- duct them ; or who illtrca'. their burses, or who attempt to ]iilage, or run away in case of attack. 252. The officers of the Quartermaster's Department, tho wagon mas- ters, and all conductors of trains, are charged with watching that tho rcgulathjns respecting transportation allowances are strictly observci. fORM OF BOND. 253.

The watering-places are examined, and signals placed at those that are dangerous. Any work required to make them of easier access is done by the police guard or Quartermaster's men. Sentinels, to be relieved by the guards of tbe regiment when they come up, are placed by the camping-party over the water if it is scarce, and over the housea and stores of provisions and forage in the vicinity. * 259. If the camping-party does not precede the regiment, the Quar- termaster att^ds to these things -as soon as the regiment reaches the camp. SIEGES. 260.

General Orders, No. 44, June 17, 1862. H. No persons, other than those authorized by the Oommnnding General of an army, or the commanding officers of diKtricts under mar- tini law, shall be recognized as agents for taking possession of private property. These agents, before making any impressments, shall pre- sent their written authority, and when they take property, their rer ceipts phall designate the ottJcer who is to pay for it. General Orders, No. 50, July 18, 186-2. VI. Anns and munitions of war belonging to States, are strictly pro- hibited from being seized by any Confederate officer ; and public arms and supplies will not be diverted from their legitimate destination by any officer of the army. General Orders, No. 53, July 31, 1862. IV. All seizures and impressments of any description of property whatever, and especially of arms and ordnance stores belonging to the States of the Confederacy, arc hereby prohibited ; and officers of the C. S. army are enjoined to abstain carefully from such seizures and im- pressments; and in case they are made by mistake, such otHcers are ordered to make prompt restitution. General Orders, No. 5G, August 6, 1862. I. Military commanders have no authority to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, nor doc« martial law, when declared by the President, under the act of Congress, justify the arbitrary establishment of the price of commodities in the trade of the citizens of the Confederate States. II. Necessity alone can warrant the impressment of private property for public U!*e ; and wherever the requisite supplies can be obtained by the consent of the owners at fair rates, and without hazardous delay, the military authorities will abstain from the harsh proceeding of im- pressment. General Orders, No. 61, August 23, 1862. III. Paragraph IV., General Orders, No. 63, current series, is so moditied as to read as follows : All seizures and impressments of any description of property what- ever, belongii.g to tlie States of the Confederacy, are hereby prchibitcd, and officers of the C. S. army are enjoined to abstain carefully from sucli seizures and impressments ; and in cape they are made by mis- take, jBueh officers are ordered to maka prompt restitution. (circular) — UANNER OF MAKING IMPRESSMENTS. 1. An officer appointing agents to make impressments, in all caaee, will furnish to such agents written ovidcuco of their authority to act ; \ 1^0 IMrilESSMEMS. and agones, whenever required liy parties interested, will exhibit the orders or authority under which they are acting. 2. Agents who make impressmenta, in all caees, will give to the owner of the property impressed, or his agent, a certificate stating the character and value thereof; and they will, moreover, return to the officer of this department, from whom they derive their authority, a statement of all property impressed by them, with the names of the owners. An abstract of these statement will be forwarded to this office by the ofiicer to whom they are returiicd. 3. Impressments must not be resorted to, except when absolutely de- manded by the public necessities; and their burden must be appor- tioned among the community, so far as may be possible, equally and impartially, having due regard co the means and ability of owners of property. HOW COMPENSATION IS MADE. 4. When teams and other property, including slave teamsters, are impressed into the service of the Confederate States, the owners there- of may be compensated by officers of the Quartermaster's department, at the usual rat^s of hire. 5. When the owners of any property impressed into the public ser- vice, slaves excepted, are willing to relinquish the same to the govern- ment, the officers of the Quartermaster's department may pay the fair appraised value thereof, and take up the property on their returns, to be accounted for as other public property. 6. When private property has been duly impressed by order of the commanding officer, and it shall appear by satisfactory evidence to have been expended in the public service, officers of the Quartermaster's department may pay the fair appraised value thereof, although the property may not have been regularly received and issued by any Quartermaster. November 5, 1862. Note. — The above rules governed cases of impressment prior to Decem- ber 26, 1862, when the folio winji were announced by the Secretary of War. Tlie above, however, Jiave still some application. IMPRESSMENT REGULATIONS. 1, The Quartermaster General is authorized to impress army sup- plies, labor and transportation (except that belonging to railroad com- panies and government contractors), when he shall think it necessary to the public service. 2. This power may be conferred by the Quartermaster General upon purchasing officers and agents of hts department; which officers may in turn confer similar powers upon such subordinates as the Quartermas- ter General shall approve. .S. All army supplies, labor and transportation impressed, will be paid for at reasonable prices, not exceeding, in any case, rates ordered IMPRESSMENTS, 141 from time to time by the Secretary of War, and communicated to the Quartermaster General; and oflBcers and agents are specially instruct- ed to give to the owners thereof receipts, stating distinctly the descrip- tion, quality, quantity and price of the army supplies, or the kind, rate of hire ane time employed of the labor and transportation impressed ; and designating the officer by whom payment for the same will be made, who, in case he has no funds on hand, shall give a certificate, which will enable the party to obtain payment from the nearest dis- bursing officer of the department of the Quartermaster General. 4. It shall be the duty of the officer or agent impressing as aforesaid, to leave to each person, whose property is impressed, a sufficiency of supplies for the use of his family and plantation, and in impressing, to take, in preference, army supplies owned by speculators. 5. The officer or agent impressing shall in all cases exhibit his writ- ten authority to impress, to the party or parties interested, or to his or their agent ; and no impressment shall be made (unless authorized by the Secretary of War, or under necessity, ordered by generals com- manding in the field), except by officers and agents authorized as above, and by them only in conformity to orders ; and any one acting without or beyond authority in the above, will be held strictly responsible. 6.

When any State, or the eomniander of any company, shall fur- nish to the volunteers in the service of the Confederate States a por- tion only of the clothing allowed by the Regulations, payment for the same will be made on like receipts as above mentioned, on the follow- ing basis, viz : a calculation will be made of the sum necessary to s'up- ply the articles deficient, at the rates established by the Quartermas- ter's bureau. This sum will be deducted from the commutation money, and the remainder will be paid to the State or commander, as the money value of the portion furnished. 6. When troops have been supplied with clothing by their State, mth a view to entering the service of the Confederate States, quarter^ Tiasters will be careful not to pay said troops the commutation allow- ance for the first six months. /. To volunteers who have enlisted for 12 months or more, and who have not received clothing, commutation is allowed at the rate of §25 f >r each six months' service. Regular soldiers, and volunte'ers for a shorter period than 12 mouths, and the militia, are not entitled to com- mutation of clothing. 8. Commutation of clothing is payable on the rolls at the first mus- ter and payment occurring after the entry of troops into the service of the C. S., and at a corresponding time, for the second or any subse- quent period of six months' service. 9. A \olunteer, discharged after the commencement of his second or any su equent period of six months' service, and before the date of the firs muster and pay roll therein, is entitled to the commutation allowa e for clothing, if he shall, have furnished his own clothing, the pay ent to be nuade at the date of the first muster and pay roll. The c r ificate of discharge should state distinctly whether the soldier has o i as not furnished his own clothing. 10. Volunteers, discharged at any time during the- first term of six months' service, or after the date of the first muster and pay roll, in the second or any subsequent period of six months' service, are en- titled to receive commutation of clothing not drawn. 11. When some companies of a regiment, or some individuals of a company, have been mustered in at a later period than the others, so that they serve at the close for a fractional part only of six months, they will receive therefor but a proportion of the commutation of clothing, estimating the same by the month, and reckoning any odd days of 15 or over in number as a month, and any under 15, not at all. 12. A proportionate allowance of commutation of clothing is paya- ble to men under 18 and over 35 years of age, who were continued in service 90 days by the conscription act. 13. When troops are accepted, as for local defence, for a less period than one year, they are entitled to receive a ratable proportion of the money value of a yearly allowance of clothing. 14. As commut'Xtion of clothing has been abolished, a State that fur- nishes its troops can no longer be reimbursed through that fund. Clothing, however, furnished by any State, when of proper quality, will be paid for by this department, after inspection, at the rates es- tablished by the War department, in General Orders, No- 100. If it HETAIl.S- I CI* fall shtirt In quaulity, uut be etill fit for issuo, it will b'. taken at reduced rates, anu isfc^icd thereat.

Applications for exemption must, in all cases, be made to the enroll- ing officer, from whose decision an appeal may be taken to the com- mandant of conscripts.
