During the last century several corps, at successive periods, have been borne on the establishment of the army, and numbered the SEVENTY-FIRST; the following details are therefore prefixed to the historical record of the services of the regiment which now bears that number, in order to prevent its being connected with those corps which have been designated by the same numerical title, but whose services have been totally distinct. 1. In the spring of 1758 the second battalions of fifteen regiments of infantry, from the 3d to the 37th, were directed to be formed into distinct regiments, and to be numbered from the 61st to the 75th successively, as follows:-- _Second Battalions._ 3d foot constituted the 61st regiment. 4th ” ” 62d ” 8th ” ” 63d ” 11th ” ” 64th ” 12th ” ” 65th ” 19th ” ” 66th ” 20th ” ” 67th ” 23d ” ” 68th ” 24th ” ” 69th ” 31st ” ” 70th ” 32d ” ” 71st ” 33d ” ” 72d ” 34th ” ” 73d ” 36th ” ” 74th ” 37th ” ” 75th ” The 71st, 72d, 73d, 74th, and 75th regiments, thus formed, were disbanded in 1763, after the peace of Fontainebleau. 2. Several other corps were likewise disbanded in 1763, which occasioned a change in the numerical titles of the following regiments of Invalids, viz.:-- The 81st reg^t (Invalids) was numbered the 71st. 82d ” ” ” 72d. 116th ” ” ” 73d. 117th ” ” ” 74th. 118th ” ” ” 75th.
