Report of the Secretary of War. As infantry ists principally in pursuing emall parties, who are always mounted, | recommended, in my iast report, the raising of an additional mounted regiment, equipped with special reference to this rervice. Cor not heving Poyred this recommendation, all that remained for the artment to de was to make such a dizposi- tion force at its disposal as would most effec- tually enero our own territory, and fulfil our treaty obligations to Mexico. Acoordi » prompt measures were taken to concentrate on confines of Texas and Mexico as many of the troops adapted $e this service as could be spared from other quar- ere The Icdians in California and Oregon having al- ways appeared of an unwarlike , and dis posed to cultivate the good will of the whites, it was theught that the services of the ment of mounted riflemen might be dispensed with on the Pacific. It was theretore ordered to Texas. Bro- vet Major General Smith, its commander, was put in command of theeighth military department, and Brevet Brig. Gen. Hitoncoek was ordered to susceed him io the command of the Pasitle division Ip the interva! of several months which elapsed betwoon the death of Brevet Maj. Gea.

Smith in Texas, tho command of that department devolved on Brevet ‘officer displayed his ascustome in ang tho foewreions of the Indians, at ihe g90d efiect of the meagures adopted by him are alreac descernible in the comparative tranquillity whic! that section of the country has for some time past enjoyed. Some of the fiercest and moat insolent of tho tribes in all that region ocoupy the northorn ortion of Texas where the streams ‘that fow iuto tho Mississippi, as well as those that ewpty themselves directly into tho Gulf, find their sources. From this region theee tribes make frequect fora: not only into Texas and New Mexico, but asroes the Rio Grande into the Mexican territory. With the double object of overewing these tribes and of affo: protection ¢o such emigrants as way take that route to Toxas, New Mexico, or Catitornia, { deemed it advisable to establish a chain of military posts on that frontier. for this purpose, the fifth regiment of infant which was already stationed high up the I Pirer andthe Arkansas) was to advance further into the interior, and to establish a chain ‘of posts nating in a western id fol- as practicable, the route called rd the officer who traced it) “‘ Mar- flowing, as near! (from the name o! By's route.” Tho soventh regiment of infantry was ordered from Jefferson Barracks, to eccupy the stations aban- doned by the fifth. [a New Mexico, the Indians had become so bold as to commit their depredations within a few miles of the military posts, and I regret to aay that ia no instance was their audacity chastised. To remedy, Wf possible, this state of things, Brevet Colonel Sum- er was ordered to the command of that department. Ho arrived at Santa Fe in the month of Jaly last, aud bis fret step wasto make a new, and, it is be- Licved, a more judicious arrangement of the military ta. His next was to set out, with & portion of command, on an expedition into the ng of the Navajos, a pewertul tribe which has long Spread terror, not only in Texas and New Mexico, but even in the State ot Sonora. Tho sesult of this @xpedition is not yet known; but if he should ac- omplish no more than to establish a military post ‘moog them, and retaliate upon them, by capt their berds and destroying thoir folds, tas oxpedi- tioa will not have been fruitloss xperience has shown, that tho most effectual @ay Co protect our settlements is to ov @ the Indians by @ constant —_— of military force in thi ir immediate neighborn For this reason, as ell as on account of the demorall: influence of the towns and villages on the troops, ing officers, boch in Texas and Now Mexico, Gixected to remove the stations as gear the fron: a stances would permi: Both these officers have.
