" THE committee, appointed to enquire the number of recruits want-
ing to complete the quota of this state, &c. beg leave to report
that three companies of artillery (nearly full) belonging to this state,
have been incorporated with colonel Harrison's regiment of Virginia

artillery ; and your committee are of opinion, that the said companies, in
justice to this state, ought to have been attached to her line of infantry,

and that the said regiment ought to be kept up by Virginia and
this state, and that the promotion to vacancies ought to be

extended in common to the officers so incorporated, agreeable to their
rank and pretentions; but your committee are informed that although
the said regiment now consists almost entirely of the men of the com-

panies of this state, yet they are commanded by virginia officers, and
the former officers of the said companies belonging to this state are
forced to retire from the service on half pay. Your committee are of

opinion, that this matter ought to be represented to congress.

Your committee beg leave further to report as their opinion, that
this state has been materially injured, by permitting corps of other lines,

and of the additional sixteen regiments, to recruit within this state, as

will appear by the following list of companies enlisted in this state, for'
