The Commanding-officer of the brigade, flatters himself, that he shall find occasion at the next reviews, to notice with approbation, a general improvement in the dress, the arms & accoutrements, the discipline and martial dexterity of the troops he has the honour to command; and that they will thereby exhibit encreasing evidence, that they are in reality, what they profess to be -- the boast and bulwark of their country.

By order of B. Gen. Sewall, Samuel Howard, Brigade-Major.
