To the President of the United Stales : Sir, lo conformity with your instructions, and with the usage of this Department, I have the honor to lay before you a statement of its operations during the past season, and reports from the various bureaus, exbibiting, in detail, their respective proceedings, as far as these appear to be sufficiently important for cominunication in the usual annual statements. The general positions of the army remain the same as at the time of my last report. Some movements, however, have taken place, which is is proper should be specialiy brought before you. Fourteen companies have been placed under the command of General Clinch, in Florida, with a view to impose a proper restraint upon the Seminole Indians, who have occasionally evinced an unquiet spirit, and to insure the execution of the treaty stipulations providing for the removal of these Indians. As soon as this takes place, these troops will resume their proper positions. The regiment of dragoons has been usefully employed in penetrating into the Indian country, in exhibiting to the Indians a force well calculated to check or to punish any bostilities they may commit, and in adding to our geographical knowledge of those remote regions. Colonel Kearvey, with one detachment, marched through the country between the Des Moines and Mississippi rivers ; Colonel Dodge, with another, made an excursion south of the Missouri, towards the Rocky Mountains; and Major Mason, with a third, joined by a detachment of infantry, was employed in duties connected with the assemblage of a body of Indians at ine Cross Timbers, near the great westeru prairie, for the purpose of establishing permanent pacific relations between the remote wandering bands and the United States, and the more agricultural Indians, who have migrated, under the public faith, to that region, or who seen. disposed to improve their condition by more settled habits. The duties committed to these troops have been well performed. The information concerning the discipline and morale of the army is satisfactory. The officers are engaged in a great diversity of duties, growing out of various acts of Congress, many of which have no direci connexion with their professional avocations. These duties are satis factorially executed, and the expenditures lo which they lead are generally made with fidelity, and accounted for with promptitude. I beg leave to ask your attention to the report of the Chief Engineer, in relation to the state of the corps under his command. Th number of officers in that corps is not sufficient for the performance of the various duties comunitted to it. The consequence is, that in some instances the public works have been neglected or delayed, and in others they have been prosecuted by those who had not the necessary professional skill and experience. Persons in civil life, possessed of competent scientific knowledge, will not often enter into the temporary service of the Government for such compensation as is provided by law for the engineer All ac officers. The progress of inprovement through the country creates a demand for those qualifications which are required in the military and topographical engineer service; and a higher rate of compensation is allowed than it has been the usage of this Department in grant. d gradual and nioderate addition to the corps offers the only remedy for this state of things, and I am satisfied that considerations of economy, as well as a due regard to the proper execution of a must important class of public works, call for this arrangement. The same considerations apply, in a considerable degree, to the topographical corps, and I ask your favorable consideration for the measure recommended by the officer at the head of it. One of the plans suggested will accomplish the object, without ariy addition to the public expenditures, and will make adequate provision for a branch of service, connected with the defence of the country, and which has also the ad. vantage of furnishing information that may prove highly valuable to every portion of the community. Agreeably to a provision in an act of the last session of Congress, that part of the Cumberland road between the town of Cumberland and the Onio river has been surrendered to, and accepled by, the States through which it passes; and arrangements have been made, by the authority of these States, for the collection of such tolls as will keep it in proper repair. The funds appropriated for the completion of this road have been applied to the object, and will be fully adequate to its attainment. The work with the exception of some of the bridges, and of a few necessary (repairs, is nearly finished, and is passable in its whole extent. counts concur in representing it as constructed in the most faithful man Captain Delafield, who has superintended the operations, and the officers engaged with him, are entitled to commendation for the zeal and professional ability they have displayed. The United States are exonerated from all future claims on account of this road, while competent provision has been made for its preservation. The progress in the other works of internal improvement is shown in the report of the Chief Engineer. Among these, one of the most remarkable, as well fioin its great importance as from the unexpected facility with which it iias so far been executed, is the removal of the raft over Red river. An immense body of timber, extending one hundred and eleven miles along that stream, had covered a large portion of its surface, and interrupted all communication. This has probably been collecting for ages; and not only was this great natural highway thus shut up by it, but a fertile and extensive region along the river was inundated, and the whole country in its vicinity subject to local diseases, having their origin in this submersion. This work has been in progress, upon the present system, little more than two years, and the whole expendioure, including the sum of twentythree thousand dollars, which was applied in previous experiments that failed, has been about one hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars. li is estimated that an additional appropriation of forty thousand seven hundred and thirteeu dollars will be required to complete it, which, with the sum often thousand dollars now in the treasury, will make for the whole cost one hundred and eighty-five thousand seven buodred and thirteen dollars. The river has been cleared for a distance of eighty-eight miles, ner. |
