The war with the Nmntuolos, during the sum*

took place, in winch th • bra very and discipline ol
both officers and men were conspicuously deploy
ed, and which | have deemed it proper to notice,
in respect to the form *r, by the granting of brevet
rank for gallant services in the field. Hut as the
force of (be I idians was not so far weakened bv
these partial successes, a-to load them to submit,

Hi is was occasioned hv the omission ot tin* (Jov

to the oat riot ic i it i/.ens who i e paired tot e geuer.d

to believe that their senna s were needed, and

that a law to this effect b<* p ssed i• \ ('ongress, giv

Oil the unexpected breaking out ol hostilities
in Florida, Vluhima and (»eorgia, it became ne
cessary, in soiii# r.isi’s, to take the property ot in

The recommendations of an increase in tin
Engineer corps, and fora re-organization ol tin
Topographical corps, submitted to you mi my las
annual message, derive ad htiuual strength Iron
the gre it embarrassments experienced during tin
present year, in those branches ot the service
ami tiud*T which they are now suffering. Sev< ■
r d of the most important surveys an I construc
tions directed by recent laws, have hern suspend

in these corps. The like observations may hi
applied to the Ordnance corps and die (ienera
Stall’, tin* operations of which, as they aie now

or performed hv officers taken Irom the hnent tin

ticularlv notice the suggestion ol the Secretary u
War for the revision ot the pay ol the army, a
entitled to your favorable regard.

also in regard lo tlio establishment ol addition,

your profound consideration. Doth measures at

Tho best hopes of humanity ill regard to the ab u

are all deeply involved in the relations nxtsiin

The impoi tan! subjects of a survey ol the coast,
and the manufacture of a slnudaid ol weights and
meisores for the different custom-houses, have
been in pimgress foi some years, under t e gene
ral direction of the Lx«- olive, and the immediate
superintendence of a gentleman possessing high
scientific attaino.mils. At the last vision ol Con
gress, the making ol a set of weights and iiioastnes
for each Stale in tho I'nion was added to the others
by a joint resolution.
The care and correspomhmeo as to all these sub
jects have been devolved on ill Treasury Depart
ment during the last veat. \ special report from
the Secretary of the Treasury will soon he com
m i licated to Congress, which will allow what has
been accomplished *s to tin* whol**, the number iV
compensation of the persons now employed in
these Hu ie«, and tho progress expected to he made
during tin; e tiiiiing year, with a ropy of the various
correspondence deemed necessiry to throw light
on the subjects w hich seem to require additional
legislation. Claims have been made for retrox
I' jjective allowances in bchalfot the superintendent
s and som»* nl his assistants, which I did not feel
justified in gr lining ; other claims have been made
for large increase in comjiensalion, which, undei
all the circumstances ol the several cases, 1 declined
making, w ithout tho express .sanction of Congress.
In order to obtain that sanction, the subject was at

Treasury !>■ pui tment t<» the Couimitteu of Com
