Criticizes General Ripley's failure to report troops sent from South Carolina and requesting arms. "[Ripley's] proper place is in Fort Sumter & Moultrie & to command the batteries - and he is suited to nothing else...when I had Beauregard there never was the slightest misunderstanding...I hope the Secy. of War may allow the Confederate arms to be given out to our troops...I can make an exchange... [for] an equal number in Mississippi now in the hands of our Regts."
