    BRIGADIER GENERAL R. JONES, ADJUTANT OENT.IIAL U. S. AHMT. Sir, Connected as you are with the service to which this work relates, it is thrown upon your consideration in the hope that it may be subservient to the purposes, as I have endeavoured to adapt it to the pecu- liar features, of our military institutions. Having this occasion, I embrace it with readiness to acknowledge the high sense I entertain, in common with all who know you, of the distin- guished services you have rendered your country in the field, as well as in the honourable, arduous, and responsible station which you have so ably filled for so long a series of years. I have the honour to be, sir, Your obedient servant, July, 1840. THOMAS HENDERSON,
