http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122629555

Letter stating that there is a vacancy in the office of Second Lieutenant in the New York Volunteers, as the oficer who occupied it has had orders issued to him to join the regular army. Marcy states that an appointment should be made to fill the post, and it should be done quickly, as the new officer can sail from New York City with the recruits about to leave, and be mustered into his regiment in California.
