Do not forget the parting advice of that great chieftain who led you through your recent brilliant campaign: "As in war you have been good soldiers, so in peace be good citizens. " Should you ever disere to resume the honorable profession you are now about to leave, do not forget that his profession in honorable only when followed in obedience to the orders of the constitued authority of your Governement. Whit feelings of deep gratitude to each and all of you for your uniform soldierly conduct, for the patience and fortitude with which you have borne all the hardships it has been necessary to impose upon you, and for the unflinching resolutin with which you have sustained the holy cause in which we have been engaged, I bid you farewell.
