of a Medical Officer of the Army to maintain the disci
pline of the soldier, dm lug his residence fu Hospital, at
tbe highest poiut of efficiency compatible with the us
ture aud treatment of the disease or Injury he is suffer
ing from. The General Hospitals in this Department
have hitherto been remarkable for their excellent dis
cipline. The Medical Director regretted to find In his
recent Inspection* the unmilitary neglect of regula
tion* in regard to dresa and general discipline: the
car less and unsoldieily bearing of many or the con
valescents and attendant.-* aud oitb**r the entire ab
sence of the customary compliments between tbe offi
cers and men. or the slovenly, manner in which they
were paid and returned. Respect to superiors is not
confined to obedience on duty, but muai be exteuded
to all occasions It is alwavs the duty of the luferlor
to accept or offer first the proper salutation, and of the
superior to return such complimentary notice. Here
after existmg regulations and order* in regard to die
tiplin*. proper compliments, and dress, must be rigid
ly enforced, and all iu'tactions of discipline,, or ala
obedßucc of orders, must be promptly punished. The

If standing, he will turn towards the Officer for the
asme purpose. Tbe Officer will acknowledge the salute
in a respectful manner.
At Inspection each man's articles of clothing, wfalrh

should have their hands aud f ices washed by tbe
nureee aud th* surface of the body sponged ofteu
enough to maintain cleanliness.

their bearing.
No attendant or patient in U. S. A. General Hospital
