rom thc Port Huron Commercial
Quartermasfer General.

The report of VIM. A. Throop,
Quartermaster General Of Michi-
gan, from Nov. 30, 1870, to Sep.
30, 1872, is printed.
The State las / 900 breech-load-
ing muskets in good condition, and
SG5 flint lock and rifle muskets.
Military companies at Adrian, Cold
water, Hudson, Jackson, Monroe,
Ann Arbor, Tecumseh, and Detroit
two companics) have each been
supplied with the breech-loaders,
AMI the State prison has a dozen.
Adrian, Bay City, Benter Harbor,
Chelsea, Flint, Grand Rapids, Hills
dale, Kalamazoo, Lansing, Marshall,
Monroe, Muskegon, Paw Paw, and
Three Rivers, have each got one
sixpounder cannon belonging to
the States kennel Of dogs of war !;
Coldwzter one, and Detroit two ten
ponder rillcd cannon.
There have been paid out in the
time embraced in the report Sl2,-
$50 for bounties under different
acts Of the Legislature to Michi-
gan Soldiers. There have also
been paid for the same time the fol-
lowing expenses:

To'a siO,4Z0 IL
But few legitimate claims arc
now being made for State bounty,
and the number of claims yet to be
paid must be very small, most OF
the soldiers entitled under the sew
eral laws having already received
their full bounty from the State.
The State has now a credit under
the United States law Of 1908 OF
over $4,000, for which ordnance
may be drawn when required.
Under the arrangement which
provided for the attendance Of the
State militia at the unwilling Of the
Soldiers Monument in Detroit on
the 9th day Of April, 1872, the
Quartermaster paid transportation
TO troops from their places Of rem
devious to Detroit and return,
amounting to $3.50. The report
classes with this reference TO tho
State war claims against the Gen
eral Government:
"Under your instructions / Wis
tied Washington for the purpose OF
ajusting the claim of the State
against the United States for the
expenses incurred on account q
the war. l succeeded in getting
tho sixth installment of the wal
claim passed and allowed at $751;.

This closes the account Of the STATE
against the United States with thu
exception OF a few suspended items
on the different installments, some
Of which can be collected, and th,
claim for interest on the war loan
which has not yet been made, there
being no provision for the payment
Of claims Of that class, and no like
claim having been paid. Whcr
Congress provides for the settle
mcnt Of interest on State war loans
this account can be made up ant
