     General Orders, Head-quarters, Boston, October 13. 1794.

      By the Order of June 6. last, 11,885 men, including 

officers, were required to be detached from the Militia of this Commonwealth, to be held in readiness to march at a minute's warning, for the defence of the United States, in case of neces sity: The officers and men were to be completely armed and organized as was therein directed. And in order that the Commander in chief, as well as the officers appointed to command in said Detachment should be able to know the state thereof as nearly as possible, the men were required to be mustered, and returns were directed to be made of each Corps, as soon as it should be organized. Considerable time having elapsed since the issuing of the said Order, & no returns having been received of the men detached, the Commander in Chief calls upon all Officers concerned to com- ply with the requisitions of the aforesaid Order within their respective Commands, without further delay.
