If your regiment fhould not be pro- vided with a band of mulic, you fhould immediately perfuade the captains to raife one. This, you know, is kept at [ 35 ] at their expence, whilft you reap the principal benefit ; for befides keeping them always with your own company, and treating them as your own private band, they will, if properly managed, as by lending them to private parties, aflemblies, &c. ferve to raife you a confiderable intereft among the gentle- men of the country, and, what is of m...ore confequence, among the ladies.
You cannot take too much pains to maintain fubordination in your corps.
The fubalterns of the Britifli army are but too apt to think themfelves gentle- men ; a miftake which it is your bufi- nefs to recftify. Put them, as often as you can, upon the moft difagreeable and ungentlemanly duties ; and endea- vour by every means to bring them upon a level with the fubaltern officers of the German armies.
Never fpeak kindly to a non-com- miffion officer. An auftere and diftant E 2 beha- [ 36 ] behaviour gives them an elevated idea of your dignity ; and if it does not tend to make them love you, it will at leaft caufe them to fear you, which is better.
