To Maj. Gen. DIX.
SIR: II is ascertained with reasonable certainty
that the naval and other credits required by the act
of Congress will amount 10 about 100000 including
New-York, which has not been reported yet TO the
Department; 80 that the Presidents call Of July
10th is practically reduced to 100000 men TO moot
and take the place Of:
First The new enlistments in the Navy;
Second The casualties Of battle, sickness, pris-
oners and desertions; and,
Third The Hundred-Days troops and all going
out BY expiration Of service this fall.
One hundred thousand new troops promptly fur
nished are all that Gen. Grant asks for tho capture
of Richmond and TO give a finishing blow to the
Rebel armies yet in the field. The residue Of the
call would b. adequate for garrsons in forts and 70
guard all the lines Of communication and supply,
FREQ the country from guerillas, give security to

subscriptions for the new 80 loan. Very good;
but il strikes me you have all overlooked one other
way full as good 1t is this: Send some one, or as
many as needed, with our U. S. Paymasters TO the
front, and let the officers and men in the army have
chance Are We less loyal or patriotic than those
at home1 l trow not
There is very near eight months pay duo this
army, and even at 1913 and $40 per month, We
could take $50 or 500 bonds, and SO save express
home, and have safe investment for our spare
funds. have also heard officers say they would be
glad if the Paymaster would pay part in bonds
even Of the lO-iOs before these latter came out.
These bonds could DO sent direct from Washing
ton or tho Treasury Department to the home or
place designated by the parties purchasing them,
and so save time and expense.
Hoping you will see this as do, I remain,
