Sir,
   I have considered the statements contained in your communication of the 21st instant relative to the difficulties existing in the transportation department at Weldon & in reply have to inform you that if you will suggest the name of a suitable person, who is not subject to Military duty, for appointment as bonded transportation Agent, such appointment will be made, & you can thus be relieved of some of the labors to which you refer.
