Important Order to Regimental Offlrert ! run, the Washington Cinonitie, July 2. The Secretary of War has issued a very important order in regard to penalties for the neglect of duty and disobedience of oiders on the part of commissioned officers in charge of troops about to be discharged the service. The order reads: In many instances delays have resulted in paying mustered-out troops, in consequence of regimental and company officers allowing their men to disband, in violation of orders, prior to their commands being reported for payment and anal discharge to the chief mustering officer, or his assistant* after arri val at the designated State rendezvous. In other cases there has been delay from com pany and regimental officers neglecting to furnish full data relative to the enlisted men, thus rendering rite nyister-out rolls imper fect, and necessitating corrections. With the arrangements of the War Depart ment, as now completed, there need he no delay, anti consequently no hardship or in convenience to the enlisted men, if luil data tor the rolls be furnished in tlie field, and, if after arrival in their respective States, as well as during transit thereto, commissioned officers look closely after the comfort and in terest of their men, aqd remain constantly with them, so as to enforce order and con trol them. It is therefore ordered, That Chief Must6r ing Officers, and their Assistants, report by telegram the names of all neglectful officers, with the charges against them, to the Adju-' tant General of the Army, (withholding in the meantime, their final payments and hon orable discharges,) with a view to their sum mary and dishonorable dismissal from the service with forfeiture of all pay. The re port, by telegraph, will be sent, promptly upon cases of neglect being brought to notice, and, at thfc same time, the facts iu full will be reported by mail. Governors of States are requested to re port delinquencies coming to their notice, to the Chief Mustering Officer of the State, and to the Adjutant General of the Army, so that a prompt remedy may be applied.” * The Condition of Jefferson Davis —The Fortress Slonroe coriegponclenfcof the Phila delphiaTnquirer writes as follows-concerning Jeff.

From the WMluiqrtuii Ohiuuklr. July 2. Restoration of the Apparently Drowned. The smsou for bathing being now on us, the following instructions for the restoration of the apparently drowned may l»e appropri ately published, and we would advise per sons residing near the water, in jairtieular, to preserve them. They are based on the methods of Dr. Marshall Hall aud Dr. H. E. Sylvester, and were published last year by the Royal Life-boat Institution, of London, in the form of a largu sheet with woodcuts, and extensively posted and distributed in England. directions. 1. Send immediately for mffdieal assistance, blankets, dry clothing, hut in the meantime treat the patient instantly on the spot, in the open air, with the face downward; exposing the face, neck, aud chest to the wind, except in severe weather, and removing all tight clothing from the neck and chest especially the suspenders. The points to be aimed at are, first imme diately, the restoration of breathing; and, secondly, alter breathing is restored, the pro motion of warmth and circulation. yhe first, must be done immediately and energetically, aud persevered in for an hour or two, or until a medical man has pronounc ed life extinct. The second, beyond remov ing the wet clothes and drying the skin, must not lie made until the first appearance of na tural breathing, otherwise it would endanger the restoration of life. 2. To restore breathing. Place the patient on the floor or ground, with the face down wards and line of the arms under the tore head. in which position ull fluids will more readily escape from the mouth, and the tongue itseif will fall forward leaving the entmuoe of the windpipe free. Wipe and cleanse the mouth from mud,-Ac. It satis factory breathing commences, use the treat ment described below for promoting warmth. If the breathing is imperfect, or fails, then, to excite breathing, turn the patient well and instantly on liis side, supporting the head, and excite the nostils with snuff, harts home, Ac , or tickle tfie throat with a feath er, rub the face and chest warm, and dash cold water, or cold Cud hot water alternate ly on them. If there be no success, lose not a moment, but, instantly, to imitate breath ing, replace the patient on the face, raising or supporting the chest well on a folded cloth or other article of dress. Turn the body very gently on the side, and a littie beyond, and then briskly ot*, the face again. Repeat this operation cautiously and perseveringiy at the rate of about fifteen times a minute, occasionally vaiying the side. (Placing on the chest forces out the air ; turning on the side makes it enter the chest.) Every time the body is replaced on the face, press brisk ly and uniformly on the back, between and below the shoulder-blade|| removing the pressure immediately belore turning the body on the side. During the above operations, dry the hands and feet and strip the body aud reclothe or cover it, but so as not to interfere with the efforts to restore breathing. •i. Should these efforts not prove successful iu the course of from two to five minutes, proceed to imitate breathing by Dr. Sylves ter’s method, as Yellows : Place the patient on the back on a flat surface, inclined a little upwards from the feet; raise aud support the shoulders on a small cushion or folded ar ticle of dress placed under the shoulder blades; draw r forward the patient's tongue aud keep it projecting beyond the* lips. Au elastic band or string tied over the tongue, and under the chin, will answer the purpose. Remove all tight clothing from neck and chest, especially the suspenders. To imitate the movement of breathing, standing at the pa tient's head, grasp the arms just above the elbow's and draw them gently and steadily upward above the head, keep them stretched upward for two seconds; (by this-means air is drawn into the lungs G then turn down the patient's arms and prims them gently and firmly for two seconds against the sides of the chest. (By this means air is pressed out of the lungs.) Repeat the operation steadily, at the rate of about fifteen times in a minu te, until a spontaneous effort to respire is perceived, immediately upon which cease to imitate the movements of breathing and pro ceed to induce circulation and warmth. ,4. To promote warmth and circulation, commence to rub the limbs upwards, yith firm,, grasping pressure and energy, using handkerchiefs, flannels, etc., (thus propell ing the blood along the .veins towards the heart.) The friction must be continued un der the blanket or over tbe dry clothing. Promote the warmth of the body by plication of hot flannels, bottles of‘hot wa ter, heated bricks, etc., to the pit of the stomach, the armpits, between the thighs, and the soles- of the feet. * If the patient has been carried to a house after respiration has been restored, be careful to let the air play freely about the roopi. On the restoration of life, give a teaspoonful of warm water, and if the power of swallowing has returned, small quantities of wiue, warm brandy and water, or coflee. Keep tbe patient iu bed and encourage sleep. The above treatment should be persevered, iu for some hours, as it is an erroneous opin ion that persous are .irrecoverable because life does not soon make its appearance, per sons having been restored after persevering for many hours. Cautions —'Prevent unnecessary crowding of persons round the body, especially if in an apartment. Avoid rough usage, aud do not allow the body to remain on its back un less the tongue is secured. Under no cir cumstances Hold the body up by the feet.— On no account place the body iu a w'arm bath, unless uuder medical direction, and even then it should only be employed as a momentary excitant. The same treatment can be applied in other cases ot asphyxia, as when respiration has been suspended by strangulation, by foul air in wells or privies, by the fumes of charcoal, etc, whilst waiting for the arrival of phy sician. —From Havana comes news that ex Con federate Secretary of War Breckinridge is the recipient of very polite attentions from the aristocratic, slave-loving element of Cu ban society. It is rumored that he intends to goto Spain. —The crop accounts from all parts of the country, particularly from the West, are of the most favorable character. Harvesting has already commenced in Southern Illinois, and it will be fully two weeks earlier than usual all over the country. —ln the course of the next six weeks near ly all the general hospitals will have been broken up. Convalescent '-patients are being discharged or transferred as fast as possible. There are about ten thousand sick in hospi tal at present. jjGOliAHiXSdif £ BARNARD COMMISSION AND SHIPPING MERCHANTS, Bay Street, Opposite Mariners’ Chcrcu, SAVANNAH. GA jutO eodtf qhari.es L.
