miles. The Secretary ol War thinks that
to render governmental protection to our
vast frontier and emigration perfect, a very
large augmentation of the army Mould uoi
be required;—live additional regiments
will answer the purpose, if properly posted;
he, therefore, suggests the propriety of ask-ing
from Congress this increase.
The army has been constantly and ac-tively
engaged. The Indian war in Flori-
Wesi da claimed the attention of a strong force;
exigent affairs iii Kansas demanded the
presence there ol two regiments; and, final-ly,
llie movement of troops to I tali was a
most serious and important undertaking.

censures this practice, ami urges the
necessity of making the buerau self-sustain-ing.
The ri^'lit of appeal to a district
Judge is also censured, and a repeal of the
law which authorizes the practice is earn-estly
