lry is much more needed in this department than in that of Mississippi and East Louisiana, and cannot be sent back as long as this state of things exists. You have now in your department five brigades of the troops you most require, viz., infantry, belonging to the Army of Tennessee. This is more than a compensation for the absence of General Van Dorn's cavalry command. I will terminate this subject with the following telegram addressed to General Johnston, at Tullahoma, on the twenty-seventh of April: However necessary cavalry may be to the Army of Tennessee, it is indispensable for me to maintain my communications.
