Transportation had been provided for them, and although there was some little delay in its reaching the command, it caused no material detention and resulted in no inconvenience. After a prosperous march of less than sixty days from Fort Benton, the command arrived in safety and good condition at Fort Walla-Walla. This march, covering a distance of three thousand miles by water and six hundred by land, has been made in the space of five months, (during one of which the troops were halted,) through an unknown and wilderness country, with no great additional expense beyond that of an ordinary march, and without any serious acc

He recommends its abolishment. The rate of postage between the Eastern States and any point west of the Rocky Mountains, and vice versa, should be raised to 10 cents per letter. Report of the Secretary of War. The Indian outrages in New Mexico and Utah last year were very numerous, and not less than $500,000 has been expended in moving the troops against the savages. The Superintendence of the Indians, the Secretary thinks, should be transferred to the War Department. In the Quartermasters bureau since he came into the Department over $24,000,000 has been disbursed by about 230 disbursing officers, of which all has been accounted for except about $24,000 which will yet be made good.

The Secretary again urges the attention of Congress to the importance of the bill for the consolidation of the revenue laws; the improvement of the marine service, substituting steam for sailing vessels, and increasing the pay in that department; the progress of public buildings and want of marine hospitals; and refers also to reports on the analysis of iron ores, and on J.
