ALEXANDRIA.

GEN. GRANTS official report for the past
year, OF the condition Of the army, &C., is very
brief, merely transmitting the reports OF the
different commanders, and recommending the
transfer of the control of Indian Affairs to
the War Department, and referring with ap-
prevail to the recommendation of Gen. Sher-
man on this subject. While the Indian war
continues he does not deem any general legisla-
ton for the reduction of the army advisable,
but suggests that when it is safe to do SO, re-
duction may be continued as at present pro-
crossing, viz: by allowing companies to dimin-
ish by discharges aud by stopping appoint
ments of second lieutenants. He thinks, also,
that the Veteran Reserve Corps might be dis
continued by absorption and retirement OF
officers and discharge of men, without detri-
ment to the service.
