It will be 6een that soldiers of thc
age of 18 outnumbered those of every
other age. But there were many
j'ounger bovs in the armv. There
were 127 of tho ago of 13;"o30 ot 14,
and 773 of 15. There is not a State
in which thc soldiers of 13 were not
inuch more numerous than thoec of
nay other age. Thc ages of officers
aro different. Tho greatest number
of any one age were those of 24 3"t ars
old. The whole number of officers
belonging to these original regimonls
was 37,154. Of theso thcro were 1 ,284
who were- 20 and under; l.GoO of 21 :
1 ,830 of 22 ; 2,101 ot 23 ; 2.231 of 24 ;
2,101 of 25; 2,114 of 20: 1,008 of 27;
2,071 of 28 ; 1.750 of 20, and 1,846 of
P.fl f if 1 Iwko i w.l vviutn M(t iiiwl di ihort
wcro 12.194, and of all ages above 40
3 ,'J74.
By analyzing tho abovo tables, we
find that two filths of the whole num
ber of soldiers wcro under
threo-ouarters of them un
while of tho officers, two-tittle
over 32, and more than one-half of; waterfalls. But tilting hoops, flaunt
them were over 29; while those under; n,r skirts, looped up dresses, and a
21 fortn scarcely less than a twenty-!
ninth part of the whole number,
Thcuo figures demonstrate-' that
while tho lighting was done princi
pally by young men, older heads were
scleeted to direct the works.
The following table,' from the report
of the Provost Marshal General, (now
in press at tho Goveri.ment Printing
Oftico,) shown the amount paid by the
people of tho different States for com
mutation during tho war:
