tion Office, the Office of Orders, the Appointment Office, the Office of
Organization, the Judge-Advocate's Office, the Adjutant-General's Office,
the Office of Inspection, and the Office of the Adjutant and Inspector-

retary of War directly.
112

files and general records; the reception and opening of the mails and
all official papers; the indorsing, entering, and distributing of all
papers to the offices charged with action upon them, the recording of
such action, and the filing of papers, or, when necessary, their trans-
mission from one office to another, and from the bureau. Upon this
office will also devolve the reception of and attention to visitors. It
will occupy the first and second in the suite of rooms in the main
building.
IV. The Office of Orders will be charged with keeping the record of
the general and special orders, and with action upon all papers and
applications requiring for their completion solely the issuing of a special
order, such, for instance, as applications for leaves of absence, furloughs,
transfers, details, discharges, and return of soldiers, resignation and as-
signment of officers, &c. This office will occupy two rooms next in suit
to the Reception Office.
V. The Appointment Office will be charged with the register of com-
missioned officers appointed, and with the duty of acting upon all appli-
cations for appointment, preparing nomination lists, issuing letters of
appointment, and entering confirmations. It will occupy the first and
second rooms in the building adjacent to the main building formerly
occupied by the Commissary-General.
VI. The Office of Organization will take charge of the muster-rolls,
rosters, returns, and reports, and act upon all matters relating to the or-
ganization of the army, such as the raising, muster, consolidation, recruit-
ing or disbanding of companies, battalions, and regiments, the succession
of officers by election or promotion, questions of rank between officers
of the line, &c.; all matters bearing mainly not upon individuals but
upon organized bodies of troops. This office will occupy the rooms
adjacent to the Appointment Office and the buildings in the rear, upon
the second and third floors of which the rolls will be kept.
VII. The Judge-Advocate's Office will take action upon all papers
and applications relating to courts-martial and courts of inquiry, and
will occupy for the present the room in the main building next to the
Office of Orders.
VIII. The Adjutant-General's Office will be charged with the duty
of acting upon all papers which cannot properly be devolved upon other
offices, and upon all papers submitted to or devolving specially upon
the Adjutant and Inspector-General, and with the preparation of the
general orders. It will for the present occupy rooms with the Judge-
Advocate's Office.
IX. The Office of Inspection, which will devolve upon the assistant
inspector-general, to be assigned to duty in this bureau, will take charge
of inspection reports, and will attend to the duties of inspection in the
several armies and staff departments, and of enforcing obedience to the
laws, orders, regulations, and usages of the service.
X. The Office of the Adjutant and Inspector-General will contain the
confidential files and records of the bureau, and will take cognizance
only of such matters as are beyond the ordinary duties of routine and
which cannot properly devolve upon the offices hereinbefore designated.
It will occupy the last room in the suite in the main building.

Lieutenant-Colonel John Withers in the Office of Orders, Lieutenant-Col-
onel E. A. Palfrey in the Appointment Office, Major Samuel W. Melton

XIII. Colonel Withers will, as heretofore, have charge of the dis-
bursement of the office fund, to which duty the chief clerk—Mr. H. C.
Wall—is, under his supervision, specially assigned. Among the spe-
cific duties thus devolved will be the supplying of and attention to
stationery, furniture, printing, blanks, outside work, and, generally,
whatever involves expenditure.
XIV. The officers on duty in this bureau will be required to take
final and decisive action upon all matters within the scope of their
capacity and the limits of whatever authority may be delegated to them,
and will submit to the Adjutant and Inspector-General such papers and
applications only as require a higher discretion, and to the honorable
Secretary of War such only as demand the exercise of authority not del-
egated; the rule hereafter to control the distribution of duties and the
transaction of business in this bureau being, that officers should do
nothing which can be as well done by their subordinates.
XV. Each paper submitted to the honorable Secretary of War or to
the Adjutant and Inspector-General will be prepared for their action by
indorsement, exhibiting succinctly but clearly the contents of the paper
and of its inclosures in such manner as to present the points for decis-
ion and the facts stated bearing upon them, together with the facts ap-
pearing of record in the bureau and the maturely considered opinion of
the officer charged with the office to which the subject-matter of the
paper may relate. The indorsements, so far as they exhibit the con-
tents of papers and their inclosures, will be made in the Reception
Office.
XVI. No paper will be placed finally upon the files until the writer
or party concerned is notified of the action taken upon it, and to avoid
the duplication of papers and the unnecessary accumulation of business
such notification will be given by written communication at the earliest
possible moment. If it be deemed unimportant and unnecessary to re-
tain a paper on file as a record or for reference, the notification will be
indorsed thereon, and it will be returned to the writer, the action having
been first recorded in the indorsement book in the Reception Office.
XVII. The door will be opened to the public at 11 o'clock and closed
at 1 o'clock. Before and after these hours no person will be admitted
without the sanction in each instance of the Adjutant and Inspector-
General, except the heads of departments, commanding generals, the
chiefs of bureaus, and the clerks of the Bureau of War.
XVIII. The officer on duty in the "Reception Office will attend to the
application of each visitor, and, if possible, meet his purpose without
communication with the other offices. When indispensable, the visitor
will be directed, or, if need be, conducted, to the officer upon whom may
devolve the subject-matter in hand. The doors between the Reception
Office and the other offices will be habitually closed, and visitors will
not pass them without permission. It is desirable that this bureau be
regarded strictly as a place of business, and the duty is devolved upon
the Reception Office of protecting the other offices from unnecessary
intrusion and embarrassment in the continuous transaction of business.
The officer in charge will, in addition to the regular hours, attend in
this office one hour between the hours of 6 and 7 o'clock in the evening^.
and a clerk or employ^ will remain on duty at all hours day and night.
29—S. 0., A. & I. G. 0.—4
114
XIX. The doors of the Office of the Adjutant and Inspector-General
will be habitually closed, and visitors will not be permitted to pass them
without consultation with the officer in charge of the Adjutant-General's
Office, who will, if possible, himself answer the purpose desired. He
will confer with the Adjutant and Inspector-General between the hours
of 1 and 2 o'clock each day in reference to such papers submitted as
may be beyond his discretion. He will receive the decision orally and
commit it to writing by indorsement or by separate communication.
XX. The officers of this bureau will proceed at once to make prepa-
rations for rearranging the rooms, papers, records, and furniture in ac-
cordance with the requirements of these orders, which will, if practicable,
be put into full operation by the 15th of March. Major Samuel W. Melton
is charged with their prompt and thorough enforcement.

II. Colonel W. H. Fowler being commissioned as superintendent of
army records for the State of Alabama and as agent to adjust the claims
of deceased soldiers from that State, commanding officers of the armies
in which Alabama troops may be serving are requested to afford to him
such facilities in the discharge of his duties (as set forth in the subjoined
circular) as may not conflict with the interests of the service.
Office Superintendent of Army Records,
State of Alabama, January '25, 1864.
To the officers and soldiers and others interested herein from the State of Alabama'.
The legislature of Alabama at its recent session instructed the Governor to appoint
a superintendent of army records, to ascertain the names, rank, organizations, and
facts concerning troops from the State that have been or may hereafter be mustered
into the service of the Confederate States, that the same may be compiled into an his-
torieal record, to be preserved in the archives of the State, for the benefit and satisfac-
tion of the living, as a grateful tribute to the memory of the dead, and as a welcome
presentation to our posterity, who, in freedom hereafter, will proudly hail this glorious
roll of the patriot sons of Alabama.
•I am engaged in this work; but the difficulties in my way are serious, owing to the
delay in its commencement—the sad want of systematic records, the imperfect returns
to the War Department, the loss of rolls, and the numerous changes and vicissitudes
of organizations. The work is, however, eminently worthy to be attempted, and the
purpose of the legislature in ordering it is highly commendable. I therefore earnestly
request all officers and soldiers from the State, the relatives and friends of those who
have died or fallen in the field, and all parties interested herein, to aid me promptly
and vigorously in obtaining the information required.
It is very desirable that all commanding officers of companies, battalions, regiments,
and batteries from Alabama shall forward to me forthwith complete lists from the
beginning, in the nature of muster-rolls, of the men and officers of their respective
commands, showing the name, rank, age, description, residence, place, date, and term
of enlistment; when, where, and how service terminated ; meritorious facts [acts] of
individuals or organizations; alterations and changes in commands or officers; notes of
such as have been wounded, captured, died from disease, or killed, and when and
where; promotions, resignations, discharges, transfers, permanent desertions, and such
succinct narrative of organization, service, marches, battles, incidents, &c., as maybe
essential for perfect record; and of organizations that have been merged into others
or broken up from any cause. I will be glad to receive information from any source
that will facilitate investigation,
I also request all commanders of companies to send me full descriptive lists of their
dead to aid me in the performance of other important duties with which I am charged
in settling claims of deceased soldiers.
Surgeons and chaplains can assist me materially by furnishing such memoranda as
they can procure of Alabama troops, deaths in hospitals, &c.
221
Names and facts sent to me by the relatives or intimate friends of deceased soldiers
will be very valuable.
It is my intention to visit our various organizations personally; but this may be im-
possible in many instances, and will consume much time, so that I again urge com-
manders to assist me by the prompt preparation and remittance of the lists above
described. Such record as is designed is due to our soldiers—will be serviceable to
them, to their representatives, and to the State, and I confidently expect the cordial
aid indicated above.
Let each Alabamian into whose hands this circular may fall consider himself as per-
sonally addressed, and set about immediately to forward the matter presented, and I
also request every officer of all grades and branches of the service from our State to
send me his address, (autographic,) rank, location, &c., for preservation, reference,
and correspondence when necessary.
Address: Col. W. H. FOWLER,
Richmond, Va.

No. 143. f
I. The resignations of the following-named officers have been accepted
by the President, to take effect to-day: Second Lieutenant J. W. 31c-
Michael, Company D, Forty-fifth North Carolina Volunteers; Rev. S. F.
Halliday, chaplain, First Florida Battalion ; Captain W. H. Sutherland,
Company C, Twenty-fourth Virginia Volunteers; Second Lieutenant
J. 11. Walthall, Dance's battery, First Virginia Artillery.
II. The sentence pronounced in February last by the military court
for the Department of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida of dis-
missal from the service of Captain F. C. Schulz, Company F, Palmetto
Battalion Light Artillery, is remitted. The views expressed by the
commanding general as to the third charge, and his disapproval thereof,
are concurred in. The acts of Captain Schulz, upon which the^other
charges with their specifications are based, do not justify a sentence of
dismissal. The punishment already endured by Captain Schulz is a
sufficient vindication of military discipline violated by some irregulari-
ties committed by him. The prosecution does not appear to have been
instituted for the good of the service, but in a spirit of personal enmity,
which meets with grave disapprobation. Captain Schulz will be re-
leased from arrest and return to duty.

Virginia, are announced for the information of all concerned, and the
special attention of officers and agents of the government is directed
thereto:
Richmond, Va., August 1, 1864.
Hon. James A. Sebdon.
Sir: We were informed early in July that the demand for army supplies was so
urgent that your department felt constrained to disregard our schedule prices then in
force, and offer market rates to the farmers for their wheat if delivered in July. This
policy was deemed indispensable to insure the early receipt of supplies. Concurring
irith the War Department in the paramount importance of obtaining, at the earliest
practicable period, a quantity of wheat for the support of the army, we apprehended
go great a disparity existed between our former rates and the rates then offering in our
leading cities, that unless we advanced prices our action might serious[ly] embarrass
the government in their efforts to obtain immediate supplies.
Under these circumstances, and owing to the very short crop of wheat and unpre-
cedented demand for breadstuflfs, together with the depreciation in the currency, as
well as to the further fact that the farmers were then securing the oat and hay crops,
we proposed the advanced prices set forth in our July and August schedules.
But now as the immediate wants of the army are being provided for, and vigorous
efforts are initiated to reduce the currency and reinstate public credit, we are disposed
to accept the recent manifestations of public opinion in regard to our prices as the
strongest assurance that in future adequate supplies can be secured on very moderate
terms.
As the press, the public, and the farmers in part have all united in condemning our
rates as too high, we therefore defet to what seems to be the general desire and pro-
pose the following prices:
Having readopted the schedules of May and June last, in accordance with the
clearly manifested wishes of the people, we have thought it advisable and proper to
stimulate the sale and delivery of small grain, &c., now so much needed as to be in-
dispensable, by advancing the price of wheat, flour, corn and corn-meal, oats, and hay,
delivered in the month of August.
Therefore we place the price of wheat at $7.50 per bushel, and a corrresponding
advance of 50 per cent, on all the grades of flour, mill offal, &c., and corn we assess
at $6 per bushel, and corn-meal at $6.30 per bushel; oats and hay, per hundred pounds,
unbaled, at $6, and at $7 per hundred pounds baled, east of the Blue Ridge, and de-
livered during the month of August.
Railroad iron not being included in the government contracts with the iron manu-
factories should not have been advanced in our last schedules, so we readopt our old
valuation for railroad iron, and put the price at $190 per ton.
The foregoing are to be the prices of wheat, flour, mill offal, corn and corn-meal,
oats, hay, and railroad iron, delivered during the month of August.
In September we propose to adopt simply the former schedules for May and June,
with the exception of the assessment upon railroad iron, which we wish to continue at
$190 per ton during the month of September.
We also readopt the revision of our February and March schedule in reference to
the impressment of horses as published in our July schedule.
122—S. O., A. & I. G. O.—3
486
We trust that the people in those counties who have recently in public meetings
pressed their views in favor of low prices will now, since all impediments have5
removed, as patriotical, lead out in tendering and selling, both to the government^
to the people, all they can spare at schedule rates. ^
Such an example voluntarily set before the people would exert a most salutary
fluence. The public may be assured we will interpose no barrier to thwart either thej*
benevolent intentions or generous contributions in behalf of their country.
Identified with them in all respects, we are disposed to foster every praiseworthy ej0tt
made in behalf of our common cause.
richmond, va., May 4,1864.
Hon. james a. seddon.
sir: In reviewing the schedules of prices for May and June we invited the co-op^.
ation and aid of Mr. William B. Harrison, and it is just to add the schedules receive
the unanimous approval of the commissioners.
We respectfully offer the accompanying Schedules A and B, with the understanding
that the prices are to remain for the months of May and June, unless in the interval ^
should be deemed necessary to modify them.
The following prices are to be the maximum rates to be paid for the articles i®.
pressed in all cities and the usual places of sale, and when impressed on farms or
elsewhere the same prices are to be paid.
Under existing circumstances we deem it not only just, but most likely to favor in.
creased production, that producers in future should not be required to transport their
surplus productions when impressed, but that the agents of the government should
employ or impress the neighborhood or county wagons and teams to haul all such
articles, and so divide the work between the owners of wagons and teams as to be
least prejudicial to those successfully engaged in agriculture.

In assessing the average value of first-class artillery and wagon horses and mules ^
$500, we designed that the term should be accepted and acted upon according to it,
obvious common sense import. In other words, that they should be selected and the,
impressed accordingly, as their working qualities and adoption [adaptation] to arm.
service, together with their intrinsic value, would warrant a judicious purchaser in ctm.
sidering them as coming within the contemplation of the commissioners when they ^
sessed the average value of such horses as the government need at $500. But cas^
might arise, however, when the public exigencies would be so urgent as to demand that
all horses at hand should be impressed; yet, under ordinary circumstances, when family
or extra blooded horses or brooa mares of admitted high value are impressed, we respect,
fully suggest to the Secretary of War to have instructions forwarded to impressing oflj.
cers to propose and allow the owners to substitute in their stead such strong, sound
and serviceable horses or mules as shall be considered and valued by competent and
disinterested parties as first-class artillery horses or first-class wagon mules.
The term " average value per head " is in contradiction to a fixed and uniform price
for each horse and mule. We suppose in impressing a number of horses or mulea,
whether owned by several persons or one individual, that some might be estimated at
$300, and others at different advanced rates, according to their worth, up as high aa
$700, thus making an average value or price for a number of good, sound, and efficient
horses or mules $500 each.
In illustration of our views we will add, that a horse with only one eye sound might,
in all other respects, be classed as a first-class artillery horse, yet the loss of one eye
would justly and considerably curtail his value. So a horse from ten to eighteen yean
of age might be deemed in all other particulars as a first-class artillery horse, but, of
course, however efficient or able to render good service for a year or so, yet his ad-
vanced age would justly and materially impair his value. Any horse, however he may
approximate the standard of a first-class artillery [horse,] must, according to de-
ficiencies, fall below the maximum price, and as few, comparatively, come up to the
standard, are therefore entitled to the maximum price, as of course in all other in.
stances the price should be proportionately reduced as imperfections place them below
the standard of first class, &c.

jRevision of the Schedules of February and March last.
Since the adoption of our schedules for the months of February and March the
gnancial bills passed by Congress taxing the currency have seriously impaired the value
0f old issues of Confederate Treasury notes. At this juncture large numbers of
horses and mules were impressed and paid for in a currency which in a few days
hereafter was to be taxed 33 J per cent.
The Board of State Commissioners having adjourned, and one of its members being
out of the State, it could not be convened in time to review our schedule of prices.
Cnder this state of facts we have rearranged and re-examined our tariff of prices, so
far as we have been advised of recent impressments, proposing, in this mode, any
diminution which may have resulted from the action of Congress upon the currency.
Therefore we assess the average of artillery or wagon horses or mules impressed since
the passage of the currency bill of the 17th February last at $600. This award will
entitle each person to receive higher compensation accordingly as each horse or mule
impressed may be considered as being a first, second, or third artillery or wagon horse
or mule, whether the parties appeal to our board or not, and the impressing officers
should forthwith call on all those persons of whom they impressed horses or mules and
propose a settlement upon the foregoing basis ; but allowing to each person only such
prices as first, second, or third-class artillery or wagon horses or mules may have been
estimated at by the local or county appraisers, assuming our average appraisement of
f'tOO as a fair medium valuation. This, then, would allow a maximum price of $800
end a minimum price of $400, making $600 the average price, thus allowing more for
first-class horses and mules, and proportionately less for the inferior, as they may fall
below the grade of first class, payment of whatever amount awarded to be made in the
new issue of Treasury notes.
The impressing officers in those instances where no arbitrators [arbitrations] or local
nppraisements for horses or mules impressed [have been made] should in all such cases
themselves re-estimate the value of horses or mules thus impressed, and allow in each
case such additional compensation as would, within the limits of our schedule rates,
appear just and proper. But if after this revaluation and settlement any person should
not be satisfied, the party could then appeal to our board and have the case reconsidered.

Army Confederate States, and having made the required examination,
the report of the court therein is published for the information of all
concerned.
889
FINDING OF THE COURT.
First. It appears from the evidence that Dr. Nichols, the accused, did
request Paschal, acting steward of the Louisiana Hospital, to
sign receipts for the weekly expenditures on account of the Louisiana
Hospital from May 7 to June 1, 1864, for Mrs. Henningsen, and that he
signed these receipts without receiving the money or paying it over to
Mrs. Henningsen, by whom the purchases were made. It appears, how-
ever, from Mrs. Henningsen's account of the moneys received from Dr.
Kichols that Dr. Nichols had paid Mrs. Henningsen on account of the
Confederate States an amount sufficient to cover all purchases made by
her for the Confederate States account, for which she had given him
receipts, including these receipts signed by Paschal. The court also finds
that Dr. Nichols was unable to procure receipts from Mrs. Henningsen
for expenditures for the time referred to, and requested Paschal to sign
the receipts, in order that he might comply with the order of the Sur-
geon-General requiring weekly expenditures to be sent to the-Surgeon-
General promptly. It is the opinion of the court that while this course
was not altogether regular, still, inasmuch as no injury has or could have
resulted, the matter calls for no further action.
Second. In regard to the charge that Dr. Nichols failed to credit the
Confederate States with the sum of $1,364.00, the amount of a donation,'
a memorandum of which was made by Mrs. Henningsen upon her ac-
counts of weekly expenditures for the time referred to in the first charge,
the court finds that he did purposely omit to credit the Confederate
States with the amount of the aforesaid donation, but did place this
amount to the credit of the fund appropriated by the State of Louisiana
and contributed by citizens of Louisiana for the benefit of the Louisiana
Hospital, which, in the opinion of the court, was the proper disposition
to be made of this donation.
Third. The court finds that Nichols did not make a false statement in
regard to his knowledge of the donation referred to.
In course of this investigation evidence was adduced of purchases to
a large amount made in the name of the Louisiana Hospital by Mrs.
Henningsen, many of which are still unpaid, and that Dr. Nichols ex-
pressed a willingness to pay from the fund appropriated by the State of
Louisiana such of these purchases as may after investigation by Major
Sully, the authorized agent of the State of Louisiana for the dis-
tribution of this fund, be approved by him. It is considered by the
court that the investigation and adjustment of these accounts do not
come within its province.
The court of inquiry of which Colonel M. Marye, Invalid Corps, was
president is hereby dissolved.
XIV. The proceedings and finding of the examining board in the
case of Sergeant E. F. Vaughan, elected junior second lieutenant Com-
pany B, Eighteenth South Carolina Volunteers, adverse to his assign-
ment to duty as such, are approved and confirmed, Sergeant Vaughan
is remanded to his former position.
XV. Major M. B. McMicTcen, quartermaster, is assigned to duty as chief
quartermaster Department South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, and
will report for orders to Lieutenant-General W. J. Hardee, commanding,

Special orders No. 272, Adjutant and Inspector-General's Office, series
of 1863, as refers to Colonel J. S. Dawson, of the Forty-sixth Regiment
Tennessee Volunteers, is hereby revoked, and Colonel Dawson will con-
tinue to be an officer of the Provisional Army Confederate States.
XXXI. Colonel W. W. White, of the Invalid Corps, will report to the

XXXII. As it has been represented to this Department, and the fact
appears, that the Piedmont Railroad, running from Danville, in the
State of Virginia, to Greensborough, in the State of North Carolina, has
unreasonably failed to comply with the requisition of this Department
for the transportation of freights, supplies, materials, and men of the
Confederate States, thereby injuriously affecting their military opera-
tions. Major S. R. Chrisman [C/w'smaw,] of the Quartermaster's Depart-
nient,on behalf of the Confederate States, will seize and impress such road
with all of its depots, cars, locomotives, running stock, machinery, and
implements, and turn the same over to the Quartermaster-General, who
is invested with all the powers and will perform all the duties provided
for by the act of Congress approved May 1, 1863, entitled "An act to
facilitate transportation for the government."
892
XXXIII. The following schedules of prices for articles named therein
adopted by commissioners appointed pursuant to law for the State of
Virginia, are published for the information of all concerned, and the
special attention of officers and agents of the government is directed
thereto:
Richmond, Va., December 30, 1864,
Hon. James A. Sebdon.
Sir : Upon consultation we have concluded to readopt for December and Janu^
our last schedules for October and November, thus continuing the same rates, with«
few exceptions, relative to the prices to be paid for hired negro laborers. These change
will be found in Schedule B.
The policy you proposed for impressing from producers only one-half of their surpln,
produdtions is eminently proper, and all impressing officers should scrupulously observe
the rule, and never go beyond it. If this rule is strictly adhered to by impressing offi.
cers it would greatly benefit the non-producers and tend to reconcile the producing
classes to whatever appeared harsh in our system of impressments, for they would hav#
one-half of their surplus productions to dispose of at neighborhood market rates.
As requested by your department, we conferred with commissioners of North Caro-
lina, and had the good fortune to adjust prices upon a basis calculated to harmonize
the leading interest of both States. The just and enlightened views entertained by the
North Carolina commissioners were practically illustrated by the liberal spirit and wise
terms upon which they agreed to co-operate with us. In this revolutionary crisis we
should all agree to aid each other and the government; to rescue the country and
save the people from the dangers that environ both, is clearly the duty of all. Oar
honor, rights, and independence are at stake. Let us bend all our energies to defend
and secure them. To attain this invaluable end the people must be fed and clothed.
Our producers, manufacturers, and tradesmen certainly can afford to work for moderate
compensation while our gallant soldiers dare to confront our savage adversaries in
their defense. Certainly, if our brave men throw their protecting arms around our
family altars and gallantly defend their country for a sum too insignificant to mention,
those who remain at home enjoying the benefit of their valor can afford to feed them
and their families on the most moderate terms. The question should be, How little will
you ask or take for your productions ? Fidelity to all the best interests of our country
points to the observance of this maxim as the best test of our charity and patriotism.
Let the watchword be, everything for our country, and away with money-making. In
this final and desperate struggle for liberty beware lest in hoarding up money and neg-
lecting the cause of the people you exchange your birthright for a mess of pottage.
Believing that our cause appeals to all parties and interests alike, we trust the people
will unite and act in concert in achieving our independence. What we will to do we
can accomplish. United, we are invincible ; triumphant, what a glorious destiny opene
to our view ; conquered, how abject and forlorn our condition ? Who under existing
circumstances is not willing to sacrifice a few paper dollars to gain the most enviable
victory that civilization ever witnessed.
Entertaining the conviction that the popular mind is favorable to every effort calcu-
lated to advance the success of our cause, we venture to place before you the annexed
schedules of prices for the months of December and January, which, though imperfect,
because there are so many and such variant views and interests to harmonize, yet we
indulge the hope may be properly received by the people.
The following prices are to be the tnaximum rates to be paid for the articles ira-
pressed in all cities and the usual place of sale, and when impressed on the farms
or elsewhere the same prices are to be paid.
Under existing circumstances we deem it not only just, but most likely to favor in-
creased production, that producers in future should not be required to transport their
surplus productions when impressed, but that the agents of the government should
impress or employ the neighborhood or county wagons and teams to haul such articles,
and so divide the work between the owners of wagons and teams as to be least pre-
judicial to those successfully engaged in agriculture.

* In assessing the average value of first-class artillery and wagon horses and mules at
$800, we designed that the term should be accepted and acted upon according to it*
common sense import. In other words, that they should be selected and impressed
accordingly, as their working qualities and adaption [adaptation] to army service,
together with their intrinsic value, would warrant a judicious purchaser in consider-
ing them as coming in the contemplation of the commissioners when they assessed
the average value of such horses as the government need at $800. But cases may
arise, however, when the public exigencies would be so urgent as to demand that ail
horses at hand should be impressed; yet, under ordinary circumstances, when family
or extra blooded horses or brood mares of admitted high value are impressed, we respect",
fully suggest to the Secretary of War to have instructions forwarded to impressing
officers to propose and allow the owners to substitute in their stead such strong and
serviceable horses or mules as shall be considered and valued by competent and aisin-
terested parties as first-class artillery horses or first-class wagon mules.
The term " average value per head " is in contradiction to a fixed and uniform price
for each horse or mule. We suppose in impressing a number of horses or mules
whether owned by several persons or one individual, that some might be estimated at
$600, and others at different advanced rates, according to their worth, up as high as
$1,000, thus making an average value or price for a number of good, sound, and effi-
cient horses or mules $800 each.
In illustration of our views we will add, that a horse with only one eye sound might,
in all other respects, be classed as a first-class artillery horse, yet the loss of one eye
would justly and considerably impair his value. So a horse from ten to eighteen years
of age might, be deemed in all other particulars as a first-class artillery horse, but, of
course, however efficient or able to render good service for a year or two, yet his ad-
vanced age would justly and materially impair his value. Any horse, however he nun
approximate the standard of a first-class artillery horse, must, according to drfi-
ciencies, fall below the maximum price, and as few, comparatively, come up to the
standard, and therefore are entitled to the maximum price, so, of course, in all other
instances the price should be proportionately reduced as imperfections place them belo*
the standard of first-class, &e.
fThe first-class sorghum molasses is of the consistency of honey and free from all
acidity to the taste. But second and inferior qualities of molasses should be reduced
in price from 10 to 20 per cent., acccordingly as they fall below the standard of fir^t
quality.

Revision of the Schedules of February and March last.
Since the adoption of our schedules for the months of February and March last the
financial bills passed by Congress taxing the currency had seriously impaired the value
of the old issue of Confederate Treasury notes. At this juncture large numbers of
horses and mules were impressed and paid for in a currency which was a few days
thereafter to be taxed 33 J per cent.
The Board of State Commissioners having adjourned, and one of its members being out
of the State, it could not be convened in time to review our schedules of prices. Under
this state of facts we have re-examined and rearranged our tariff" of prices, so far as we
have been advised of recent impressments, proposing, in this mode, to remedy any diminu-
tion of valuation which may have resulted from the action of Congress upon the currency.
Therefore we assess the average value of artillery or wagon horses or mules impressed
rince the passage of the currency bill of the 17th February last at $600. This award will
entitle each person to receive higher compensation accordingly as each horse or mule
recently impressed may be considered as a first, second, or third-class artillery or wagon
horse or mule, whether the parties appeal to our board or not, and the impressing
agents and officers should forthwith call on all those persons of whom they impressed
horses or mules and propose a settlement on the foregoing basis ; but allowing to each
person only such prices as first, second, or third-class artillery or wagon horses or mules
may have been estimated at by the county or local appraisers, assuming our average
appraisement of $600 as a fair medium valuation. This, then, would allow a maximum
price of $800 and a minimum price of $400, making $600 the average price, thus allow-
ing more for first-class horses or mules, and proportionately less for the inferior, as
they may fall below the grade of first-class. The county appraisements will be the guide
in making these settlements, but within the limits of our maximum price of $800 and
(ur minimum price of $400. This plan would, perhaps, be most satisfactory to the
people. For whatever prices the county appraisers agreed upon should be deemed
fair within the range of our minimum [price] of $400 and our maximum price of $800,
javment of whatever amount awarded to be made in the new issue of Treasury notes.
'lhe impressing officers in those instances where there were no arbitrators or local
appraisements for horses or. mules impressed should in all such cases themselves re-esti-
mate the value of horses or mules thus impressed, and allow in each case such addi-
tonal compensation as would, within the limits of our schedule rates, appear just and
proper. But if after this revaluation and settlement any person should not be satisfied,
the party could then appeal to our board and have the case reconsidered.
All appeals and communications for the Board of Commissioners should be addressed,
p t-tpaid, W. D. K. White, secretary of the board, box No. 925, Richmond, Ya.
The next meeting of the board will be held on Tuesday, the 31st day of January
next, in the city of Richmond.
