Mr. SCHEXCK. It is more than improb able they mind he found; and if found, in what condition I will not undertake to say. The Gentlemonisas capable of judingas myself whether or not an officer wounde in the service of the country, whose services it has been thought proper to retain because of his merits, who has upon his hands a wifc aud half a dozen children, it turned loose without employment ofauy kind, can be recovered for the public service some months, or years even. hereafter. a, In reply to what was rather the ament than the inquiry of the Gentfrom iaois, [Mr. Fauxswoum] I will say that it was probably the right of the privates to determine each for himself whether he would remain in the service or not, when the question was submitted to him by an order from the War Dept. Each private may have felt that he had that right, because when they were transferred from the volunteer organizations, to which they formerly belonged, to this corps, they naturally expected that they would go out with the exemption of the terms of service of the several regiments from which they had been transferred. So it was the right of each officer to vote to go out when the question was submitted to him. But the question of right does not, in the 1st place, up ly in this case at all to because thi privates, t new is nothing contempla here in reference to the privates.m. T So far as the cers are concerned, while the naked right exists now and did exist to go Out, they not having elected to go out, the question of exency now arises, what shall be done with them? Asa question ofexpediency, I hold that these men have a claim not only upon the sympathy, but the justice of the Government, not to turn them out of the service in a summary manner, but to wait fer a little while, at least until Congress shall advisedl take some actiqn m regard to this eorps, who or to retaiaig, m I think not, hit its present organization, or to incorporate it in some other organization of the service, or some other action. That is the whole extent and scope of this resolution; that they shall be tem porarily retained, or that a request shall be made to the President to retain them temporarily, with a view to enable Congress to consider the subject and take some order in the she e of legislation in regard to the matter.
