On the subject of exemptions, it is believed that abuses cannot be checked uniess ‘the system is placed on @ basis entirely difforont from that now provided by law. The object of your legisiation has been, not to confer privileges on classes, but to exonerate from military duty such number of persous akilied in the various trades, professions and mechanical pursuits, aa could render moro valuable servicos to their country by laboring in their present occupation than by going into the ranks of the army. jicy if unquestionable, but the resuit would, be better obtained by en roiling ail such persons, and allowing details to be of the mumber necessary to meet the wants of the country. | Considerable numbers are believed to be now. exempted from the military service who are not neodiul to the pub lic im Sem are rouiions. re Certain are now ‘med throughout the coun which could be as wel! try by details {rom apne ble, agsuming the place of e for duty with the nitro, ordnance, commissary and quartermastera’ bureaus of the War Department, would, it is hoped, add iargoly to the effective force ia tha flei@, without an undue burthou on the population. If to the above measures bo added a law to ot the policy of the act of the 2let Apri!, 1862, 80 as to: the ee eet ae enlisted cooks, but wag ir employes ithe army, by nogrocs, Wi hoped that the ranks of the army will be so. strenginencd for the ensuing campaign as to put at defiance the ufntat efforts of the enemy. y In order to maintain, unimpaired, the existing orgaut zation of the army until the close of the war, your log. lation con 8 (requent supply of recruits, and it’ was expected that before tha’ oxpiration of the threv’ Syn. aeer ne ee mee ws ‘enrolled, under act of , 1862, the major: men in each consist of those who } iL ot differemt datew, dates, eubso. quent to the original muster of the company into service, nd that the discharge of those who tiad! their term wonld at no time be sufficient tb leave the company with @ less gumber than Is required to’ enable it to retain ig-tion, The diMeulty of oBtaining recruits from }, and the large number of exeraptions {from military service granted by different iaws, have prevent. od accessions in many of the’ companies to p their organizations after tho of wl original members.

In the cuses where it may be found {1 cable to maintaim rogiments in sufficient atrengtty to ji tity the retention of the present organization) oronomy and efficiency woukt be promoted by consolidation and reorganization. This wowld involve the necessity of dix banding a part of the officers, and making regulations for securing the most judicious selection of those wito are retained, while jeast wouuding the (oclings of tasoe who ‘@ discharged. Experionss has showa the necessity for further legis- lation in relation to the horses of the cavalry. Many men love their horses by casualties of service, whieh are pot included tn the provisions made to compensate the owner for the boas, and i¢ may thus not unfrequently bappen that the most efficient troopers, without famtt of | their own, indood, it may be because of their zoe! and | activity , are lost to the cavalry service, it would also seera proper that the goveramont should bave complete contro! over qvery horse mustered into the service, with the limitation that the owner aheuld not be deprived of bis morse excapt upon dre compensa. ‘ion being made therefor. Otherwise, mounted men may pot Keep horses fit for the service; and the question | whether they should serve mounted or on foot would do- | pend, pot upon the qualifications of the men, but upon | the fact of their having boraes. * Some provision ts deemed requisite to correct the evils arising {rom the long continned absence of commisstoned | vileers. Where it t% without sufficient causo it would | seem but just that the commisaion should be thereby | vecated, Where it resuits from capture by tho enemy, which, | under their barbarous refusal to exchange prisoners: of war, may be regarded ag sbseace for an indefinite time, there ts @ necessity to supply their placos in their ro. spective commands. This mignt be done by temporary to endure opty until the return of tho ofli- cers regularly Joued. Where it results from permanent disabil: ‘commias! ‘ ity incurred ia the line of their duty it would be proper to retire them and fill the vacancies ac. cording to established mode. I would also suggest ganization of an invald corps, and that the retired officers be transferred to it. Such a corps, tt ts thought, could be made usefe! in various emplouments for which efficientop cers and troops ave now detachad. An or; vation of the general wtaffof the army would he highty conduiciv’ to the aifciency of that most import ant branch of thes “ice.
