When Active Militiamen are confined ia any local Prison for a civil offence, no charge will b» included for either pay or rations during the poric4 ef sueh coniLnomont. 294. When men are sent away from their post to any other, singly or in small parties, on escort or other detached duty, a special marching allowance, to be hereafter determined, will be made to each man so detached, for the day or days on which he is a« clioose to d^friZ: *''!P"T'^ of payingMilitiamen intheir d.stncts, agents who are not duly authorized for biiity and at their own risk ; any loss which thev Z^eTZ^' '''-'' ' proceedin./.ill fall oti^Z BUTIES^OF QUARTER-MASTERS IN THE FIELD. ^ (Actual Service.) 304.

As a rule the men are not to be billeted upon the inhabitant householders, unless there aie no other means available for securing shelter; this to be decided by the Commanding Officer. 305 Where the men are to be in billets, the quartermaster will endeavor in all cases to procure them by agreement with the householders at a rate, for the board and lodging of ea^h man, not exceed- ing 40 cents per day ; should this be impracticable, recourse must be had to compulsory billeting. Care must be taken that the billets are not too widely scattered, and that they are as nearly as possible grouped within a circle of which the alarm post is the centre. The commanding officer's quarters should always, if possible, be the alarm post. 306 The billet arrangements should be completed before the arrival of the force, so that the men may not be kept waiting. The one man Previously detached from each company should shew tne b^xe.s allotted for his company. In all cases the otticer charged with the billet arrangements should wait first on the Chief Magistrate of the place, and request his assistance and influence with the hous^- folders, which will much simplify the work. Where the men are boarded and lodged by agree- ment, a bed and sufficient covering must invariably be provided. Every captain should have a list of his company billets so that if suddenly moved no delay m payment should occur.

Ifanyinhabitant considers himself aggrieved by having a greater number of the said Militia billet- ed upon him than he ought to bear in proportion to his neighbours, then on complaint being made to • two or more Justices of the locality, they may relieve such inhabitant, by ordering such and so many of the said Militia to be removed and quar- tered upon such other person or persons as they see cause, and such other person or persons shall receive such Militia accordingly. 309.

The return of their strength will be forwarded to the commanding officer of the battalion, if they form part of a battalion, or to the district staff officer direct, if they do not. 313. He will require the Paymaster to draw up a nominal roll of the men under his command, with a column of remarks, which shall shew when any man became non-effective ; He will, at the first muster parade, personally ascertain that each man is in possession of the articles of equipment below enumerated, and wiii immediately report any deficiencies to the district staff officer. 1 rifle with small stores complete. 1 set of accoutrements capable of carrying at least 60 rounds. 1 knapsack and straps complete, with canteen, orgieat coat straps if knapsacks have not been issued. 1 haversack.

"When a corps placed on actual service is •ordered away from its permanent head quarters, if the men be furnished with knapsacks, the Com- manding Officer will not allow any of his men to take with them any article of baggage beyond their knapsacks. The prime necessities of a soldier on service, supposing him to be otherwise properly equipped, are food and ammunition. 316. Onbeingsuddenlydetachedtoanyplacewhere there is no certainty of obtaining immediate sup- plies, the commanding officer must always take with him one day's supply of bread and cooked meat in the men's haversacks ; and a supply of bread and meat for at least one day in addition. The quarter master should invariably precede the column by one day, if possible, to make arrangement for a regular supply of bread and meat at the place of destination. 316.

'318. Any commanding officer detached with any probability of meeting an enemy, should invariably oarry wiUi him in waggons a reserve supply of ammunition, over and above the 60 rounds per man in the pouches, of at least 50 rounds jier man. 319. Commanding officers may provide transport I 130 for cainp equipage, (when furnished,) at thei-ate of one waJkon for every 26 tente complete, also for offieersMight baggage, at the rate of o^e waggon tor each bAttalion of eight companies ; but ihey irill be held pecuniarily responsible if they engage -more transport than is absolutely necessary. 320 Theofficercommandingabattalionordeta^h- ment is responsible for the proper performance ot the duties of the Paymaster and Quarter Master a* laid down elsewhere in these regulations, as well *s for those of all the Ofl&cers imder his command. 321.

Commanding officers a^cepting^ from indi- viduals or communities supplies which do not fairly lome under the head of those 7l^^<^l^ «^^^^^^ furi^hed by the government, will do so on tbeir o.^ r^pcLibility.

Commanding officers are r'jsponsible fortlie safetyand preservation of all public stores which have been issued to th^ir corps; and under them the cap- tains of companies, ai-e responsible that the arms of their men are kept at all times in clean and service- able condition . It is not to be permitted on any pre- text whatever that a rifle shall be returned to the company's arm-racks after firing, until it has \yeen properly cleaned. 325. In the event of a Militiaman losing or damaging any of the Government property with which he is entrusted, a report thereof should immediately be made to the Department by his commanding officer, in order that the value of the said property may be deducted from his pay in tht next monthly paylist ; and, with the view of cariy- ing this order into effect, a special Inspection will be inade once a month, or at the ter«iination of service, by the officer commanding at each post, of all Barracks occupied by the Militia as well as of all the public property in their possession, and a report thereof, shewing the expense of all the damages and deficiencies, should be made to tha 132 District Staff Officer immediately after such iiMpections. 326. When corps a^^e i-eliered from actual sMrice, commanding officers will take all articles of public property, such as knapsacks, haversacks, water can- teens, &c., into ^the battalion or company store ; and will forwaril a retui-n to the District staff officer which shall shew in one column the articles rec^red, in a second articles in possession, and in a third the cause of deficiencies. 327. Loss of private property incun-ed by Militia on service will not be made good by the public, unless it can be clearly shewn that the loss w«« not in any manner attributable to carelessness, that it was unavoidable, and that the articles lost were jmrt of their necessary equipment as soldiers. 328. No Field Officer is on any account to ac- company his battalion on actual swvice unless he is provided with a horse. 329. When any force leaves it« own head quarters, the officer commanding will at the Mid of its journey send to the District staff officer a " Marching in State."

An intelligent officer with party similarly to be sent in advance to select a spot for camp or bivouac if necessary.

The subaltern officers should personally see that the men wash their feet on arriving at a halting place for the night, and should satisfy themselves by personal inspection that the nails are properly cut. A good officer will attend to this injunction ; a careless officer will probably turn it into ridicule to cover his own laidness. It is impossible for men to march for many days consecutively without following this prescription, and the fat« of a battle may very Msily depend on the men being in good marching «cmdition. Every man should have in his posses- «oa a piece of soap, and should soap the inside of ■Am heel of his stocking before commencing each «Uf 's march, and the officers should am that this is done by every man. The men should be cautioned to drink on the march no more than is necessary to satisfy thirst, as over indulgence in this respect in- ereases the craving it is intended to allay. 333.

DUTIES OF ADVANCED GUARDS. 335. The usual mode of foi-ming an advancfid 336. The duty of an advanced guard is simply to feel the way for the column of mareh, and to riv^ timely notice of approa<;bing danger. It« stw^ and composition must depend on mishing,men should remember that in the field an enemy will be opposed to them, whose business is to keep himself as mucli as pos- sible under cover at the same time that he fires «}x>n them whenever they expose themselves. 351. Two lines of skiimisher^ opposed to each other on smooth ground, and keeping their lines properly dressed, are never seen in a real fight. All that is required is that the men of a line of skirmishers should be in such communication that they are able to afford each other a mutual support. In ad- vancing aci*oss open and unbroken gi-ound, the line V, ill "be maintained with more or less i-eguiarity, because theie is no inducement to break the order f \ -.^ 142 352. Where ground is broken, so as to afford cover in some parts and not in others, the files advancing over the unbroken ground, should observe a regular line; but those files which may have in front of them any ground where cover is to be obtained, such as a hillock, or a clump of trees, or rocks, should dash forward to seize it at their utmost speed, notwithstanding that by so doing they may place themselves in advance of the general line by 30 or 40 paces. 353. If the enemy is in possession of this vantage ground, a dash to dispossess him of it should be made, by the converging at full speed of such a number of files as will serve to drive him out. If you succeed in doing so, you establish a post in th« midst of the enemy's lines, and he must fall back, because you flank him on both sides, while your general line advancing occupies liim in front. If the enemy's skirmishers are sheltered by a hedge, ditch, bank or any otlier line affording cover, a quick officer will select the weakest point in the enemy's line for attack, and will direct a number of files to converge on that point at full speed sufficient to overcome resistance. In this way again a post will liave been established in the midst of th« enemy's line, which will flank liim to right and left, 1 •!_ _ _ ■• ■• . ■• ..." - - ' wniio juui geueiiti ime aiiranuiii^ wiii occupy him in front. 143 354. Skirmishers advancing in the open should consider no inequality or accident of ground too insignificant to afford shelter of some sort, if it doe* not protect one part of the body, it will another. Thus ev(;n a large stone should be made use of, and a small tree stump may save a man's life. 355. In wood fighting no man shQuld fire except from close behind a tree ; after delivering his fire, he must 'load - under cover of the same tree ; and when loaded, he "a ii.dt select a tree in advance, and then dasl> up to it suddenly — and s<^». a^J v^aI. >. «r>11 =—- » ^•--"•q «ev tilx^^iii ir^ffsiiixa CSiUU w^Uu a Will. 364.

When a Battalion is fighting in line in cIom order, it is *^? duty of the Officers and N. C, Officers in fl-v fc*\ipemumerary Rank to prevent any break occuAimg in the rear rank, and they are not to allow any man to leave the ranks without ordon under any pretence whatever. 369. Officers must aid in controlling and directing the fire of the men, in checking any waste or un- necessary expenditure of ammunition, and in di». , tribiiting fresh supplies of the same. No one fight- ing in the ranks should be peimitted to fall out to assist the wounded, but men should be specially appointed to this duty. If in a serious engagement this cannot be observed, the wounded must renuda where they lie until the conclusion of the action. 370. When a Battalion is fighting in extended order, the Officers must be on the alert to pass th« word of command along the line, as the use of th* bugles on such occasions is objectionable. 37 1.

K there be no porches, wings, or projecting portions from which flank defence can be obtained, it is most advisable to construct something of a tempo- rary nature in order to secure a flanking fire ; a ready means of eflecting this object, is by a stockade work, which may be disposed in the form of a tri- angle, projecting eight or ten feet in front of a window, planted in the manner and with the pre- caution of having the loop holes high enough. A small hole should be left in the barricade of the door or window to communicate with the interior ; three or four loop holes on each face of the pro- jection cut between the timbers, will be found very useful in defence — ^these contrivances are termed " tambours" — and if constructed at the angles of a building, will flank two sides ; if neither time nor means will admit of their construction, as the angles are weak points, an efibrt should be made to pierce loop Loles there. 373. A clear commimication should be made round the interior of the building or enclosed space to be defended, and a portion of tiie garrison held in some secure and central spot in reserve — the usual proportion of such reserve varies Erom one-fourth to one-sixth.
