To Subscribers in the Army.

We are receiving handsome lists of subscribers from our regiments in the field, and are informed that much larger ones are in course of prepara- tion. Many soldiers will prefer to have their cop- ies sent home for preservation. They have only to send us the address to which they will have their papers mailed, and their wishes in this re- spect will be attended to. We believe that we shall be able to make a volume worth a dollar to every soldier-a volume that he would be glad to pay twice that sum for, hereafter, as a record of the part that Connecticut took in the war. We therefore urge every soldier to subseribe.

Portraits,

No portrait appears in this number. Many of our subscribers whose judgment and good taste are worthy of consideration, think the appearance of the RECORD will be improved, and its value not lessened, by the omission of these illustrations. Since there are so many illustrated papers, and engravings or photographs of all who distinguish themselves in the service, can be obtained so easily and cheaply, there seems to be no actual need of such a department in this journal. Portraits will "however occasionally appear when more legiti- mate matter will not be crowded out. Biographies of the most honored sons of Connecticut will, of course, continue to bear a prominent place.

To Subscribers at Home.

Our list is now probably double what any Con - necticut journal ever obtained in the same time, bat we desire to double it again within the next three months. Even then we expect to spend for the present year the sum total of our receipts in giving interest to its pages,

Correspondence.

Correspondents must not feel aggrieved if their favors are not always published in full. It argses no dissatisfaction on our part, with either the inat- ter or style of the communications. We should be glad to print the remarks of every one, but the necessity of abbreviation is often imperative. There is a limit to the amount of type that can be Ect in a given space. Conciseness of statement and terseness in expression ou the part of corres- pondents, will save much clipping. The vast la- bor of getting all our correspondents at work reg- ularly, is nearly accomplished. When this shall have been done, with other matters now in con- templation, great improvement in this department of the Record will be manifest.

Military Tickets,

It does not seem to be generally known to off- eers and soldiers that the government authorities have made arrangements with the principal rail- road managers of the country to transport soldiers at reduced rates.

This reduction is available to officers as well as enlisted men, and on discharge and ordinary leave of absence, as well as siek leave.

Ask at the depot for a military tieket or a sol- dier's ticket.

The deduction between Baltimore and New York is about two dollars.

Recruits for Connecticut Regiments.

Nearly two thousand conscripts have been al- ready forwarded from the State to the Connectieut regiments. The 5th, the 8th, the 14th and the 20th have been thus re-enforced.

We shall publish in the November number an interesting historical article on the enforcement of the draft in the State, and an article on the State Militia, setting forth its organization and progress up to this time.

We shall keep onr patriotie readers well inform- ed on military matters in the State, as well as at the seat of war.

The Higher Officers of the Army.

There are no higher offices in the army of the United States than Major. Generals, with the single exception of Lieut. General Scott. Gen, Scott's case is an exceptional one, that rank having been conferred upon him by special aet of Congress as a recognition of his eminent services : at his death the rank will again disappear from the pages of the Army Register, unless re- established by extra- ordinary process.

The number of Major Generals now in commis- sion is four. The army organization requires five, but there is at present one vacancy. The four Maj. Generals are, George B. MeClellan, John C. Fremont, HI. W. Halleck and Ulyses S. Grant.

The list of Brigadier Generals in the regular ar- my is as follows: Irwin MeDowell. Robert An- derson. Wm. S. Rosecrans, Phillip St. George Cooke, John Pope, Joseph Hooker, George G. Meade, with two vacancies. Of these, MeDowell, Rosecrans, Pope, Hooker, and Mende are Major Generals of Volunteers, Within the past year Brigadier Gen. Harney has been summoned before the Retiring Board.
