repeatetlly, that we charge for obitiiary notices of un
reasonable length, and for resolutions of respect; be-
oause that kind of reading, we have much occasion to
-now, is not often more agreeable to readers than to
editors of papers. As it generally happens, however,
that after charging and paying postage on the account for
warded, we never get paid, we now give notice that we
will insert nothing of the sort hereafter unless accom
panied by the cash. (.\lwaj’S excepting in the case of
liceased volunteers, when we require no pay.) Hear
iu mind, therefore, that we will insert obituary notices
and resolutions, not exceeding 70 words, gratis. For all
iver 70 words, one cent a word, which must be paid be
fore the notice will be put in type.

We will begin our observatioris upon tliis sub
ject, first, by attention to those things which con
cern the individual, and then come to those which
may be considered as duties ol the soldiers to
each other, and to their ullicer."; coming at last tt^
tlie duties of an ollicer conducting the nuirch.
Shoes.—The shoes shoubl have broad thick
soles and low heels, with soft upper leather
They should fit well on the instep, be roomy
across the ball of the foot, and leave the ankl^
free. TJie upper leather should be kept pliable
with grease, and a change alway.s re:idy, in case
the pair on begin to chafe the feet in any }tlacc;
also that one may alw:iys have dry feet at night
iS(>ck$.—The socks should be heavy woolen

I taken to have them clean and free front .‘^and or
I gravel.
I Soap and Tou c/.—Soap and a towel sliould be
I carried conveniently ready for use, to w;ish an«l
J dry the feet as often as desirable. A little water .
I from the canteen on the towel will be of great
■ service when more cannot be got.
Bliiiers.—Stick them on two sides near thcTr
edges, so that, when pressed on, all the w:iter
will escape. Leave the dead skin, as a protection
until new forms. If the skin is broken, proteet ^
the part with grease, free from salt or soap. Have
an eye to tne nails.
Rest.—At a halt, recline, selecting a dry .spot, •
or throwing down a blanket or rubber cloth, if the
rest be of many minutes’ duration. Raise the
feet alternately and the blood will flow back, re
lieving the legs and feet from all feeling of fulness
and weariness. More rest can be obtained by
the judicious use of a few moments than ol hours,
it seated say, on the damp ground, with the
blood prevented from returning irom the feet
and legs, by the binding of’ clothes or a cramped
position. In very wet days or places it is sou’C-
times a help to lean against atiyt'aing, and raise
alternately the feet until the blood flows back
Times fur Rest.—Most military writers agree
in making their first halt within tlui first half hour.
It need be but for a few moments, as it wore, but it
enables all to arrange anything wrong about the
dress or accoutrements. U takes away from be
ginners ^he fear of the fatigues uf the day, a« it
shows & care for a saving uf strength, which they
would not perhftpb practice for themselvci. It
eausei the body to take on gradually the habit of
exercise, and the system has ample time to gather
its forces for the use of the parts to be employed.
Once an hour may do afterwards with tolerably well-
trained men. Arbitrary rule« cauuot, perhaps,
be given that will suit every case. ^
The Rule should be, rest must precede fatigue,
As sudden transitions are bad, the march should
end as begun—carefully, gently, in training
men, never overdo; always stop within the known
ability of the man or men.
To walk with ease.—Throw the chest forward;
this the knapsack will have a tendency to iuduuc
Pass the teet near the ground by the action chiefly
of the thighs, and do not let the loot on tlic
ground remain. In this way the Indian glides,
as it were, with a light stfp and great powers of
enduranc®. Contrast this with the rapidity of
motion necessary to make the same progress, where
the fout is planted heel first, as if never to be
taken up again, the body at each step losing its
impulse, tJte foot, the wfiole frame jarred; n gre.it
eflurt being re[uired at each step to give the body
its lost motion, if glide is the word fur the first,
jerk is that for the last.
The Ordtr to /alt In should be obeyed with
the utmost promptitude by every one. An olhcer '
should see to it that cartless men do not keep
others waiting; the men should be made to see
that this is one of the b;td elfucta of a want of
ready obedience.
Fallivij Out.—If a man has permission* and is
compelled to fall uut, his arms and pack should
be carried by his coturades to enalde him more
easily to overtake them; and they will >ee to it if
one is habitually slow to coiue up.
SUijht luilispo.sition.—if a man is sliglitly un
well it may be better for cii otliocr to fiave him
relieved ot bin pack, etc., lor part ol a day, rather
than to have him in the hospital wagon, pack and
11, the next.
The ulTicur comm:inding should tlioughtlully
select the grouiiJ, ao to water, etc., as well as the
times for hishalu.—( 'hurit-slun M rcnrj.
