This ruling, of course, affects all officers who ere detatled as Acting Commis- saries and Acting Quartermasters at detactied posts and commands, But the princtpal objection | to the ruling is that the recruiting service 1 | wholly @t ® standstil, {t has long been the custom for the Adjutant General to direct war- rants to issue to the superintendents of the recrutt- ing service, who checked to the recruiting oficers | a8 it was required, Another law, however, prevents the War Department from acting upon the sug- gestion made by the Acting second Comptroller that paymasters or quartermasters should draw the money and turn {t over to the recruiting om- cers. The laws forbid a bonded officer to turn over moneys except toon officer relieving him of his 26,000 men, the number of the rank and fle has fallen by ‘the ordinary casualties of death, dis- charge and desertion to 18,000, and the effect of the recent ruling in preventing recruiting ts rap- idly reducing the number still farther.

WHAT WAS SAID OF THE NOMINATIONS. } It was, of course, well understood for a week | | before the Convention met that the New York | | delegation would vote solid for Tilden. This waa by no means a matter of choice, but simply a political necessity, John Kelly had sent ont the | command, and his troops of Tammany Hall must obey or else be brought out on the steps of the great wigwam and shot to political death, There { Was no medium course. Now that the nomination | Of Tilden had been made, tt was their next duty | | to support him by tongue and all other physical | | effort. “Chin music’ is probably tbe political ex- | pression when alluding to this branch of the Tam- many delegates’ duties. Some who bad expressed opinions unlavorable to Tilden before the Conven- | | Hon met felt somewhat alarmed at the prospect | of the new Boss’ displeasure. It was a laughable | sight to sce the vim with which those delegates cast their votes for Tilden in the Convention when | thetr names were called. The eye of “Honest | John’? was upon them, and his behests must be carried through at all hazards. Some few who had talked with our correspondent two weeks since, ana denounced Tilden in every way, now EF much for the whip and spur of party leader. ship.
