alfo authorizes magiltrates to grant warrants

ceived by the imperial armies are mod for

their difcinline and mode of equipment. It
is the crand object of the emperor toincrcafe
in Tii'ore than a proportionate degree, the
number of his cavalry, in which the enemy
is more particularly deficient, and which are
