We submit for the perusal of our readers, the fol lowing extract of letter from Col. SEWER, on sub jecs of much interest to our State generally, and particularly to our frontier citizens.

 WASHINGTON, April Sd, I844.

 "DEAR SIR-The amualappropriation bill, of the House of Representatives, for the con- struction of military Notifications, which had passed that body some weeks since, was amended in the Senate to-day, by adding three items of appropriation. The first, of Ariy Housaad dollars, for the public buildings, at Fort Smith; the second, of .ffteen thousand dolIarS, in addition to the appropriation of last year, of fen tbouSdad, for the construction of Barracks, al Cantonment Gibson; and the third, of sir Hoasqnd doliars, for the compile ton of the military works at Fort Towson The last of these three items is all that is re- quired to complete the work at FoWson the second falls short len tkouSaad, of the estimate of the Department; and the appro- priaton for Fort Smith falls short HirfY thou sand of the estimated amount for the compile ton of the works at that station. These re- ductions are not confined to the forts of oul frontier-similar reductions, on all the esti- mates for other works, elsewhere iii the United States, are made by the bill At the next session, it is to be hoped, that the condi- ton of the. Treasury will justify full appro- priations, running up to the amount of the official estimates, by which those works will all he finished

 The Second Regiment of Dragoons are renounted, and will be placed uponour from tier, for our defence. The re-occupation o Fort Wayne, and the completion of our mili- tary roads, will, ill consequence of the con- dition of the Treasury, and other unavoida- ble obstacles, be necessarily deferred to 5 more suspicious period. It had been my earnest desire to sec ample appropriations made for all of these objects; but shall no be, as you perceive, but partially gratilied.o
