<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">To
the Shareholders and Board of Directors of </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:0pt;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&#160; &#160;Dreyfus Strategic Municipals, Inc.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:0pt;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">In planning and performing our audit of the
financial statements of Dreyfus Strategic Municipals, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) as
of and for the year ended September 30, 2015, in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), we considered
the Company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting, including controls over
safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for
the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply
with the requirements of Form N-SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company&#8217;s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.&#160; </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">The management of the Company is responsible
for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
controls. A company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company&#8217;s internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of
the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of a company&#8217;s assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">A deficiency in internal control over
financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not
allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the company&#8217;s annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">Our consideration of the Company&#8217;s internal
control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the
first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal
control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no
deficiencies in the Company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting and its
operation, including controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider to
be a material weakness as defined above as of September 30, 2015.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify;"><font face="eyinterstate light" lang=EN-US style="font-size:9.0pt;">This report is intended solely for the
information and use of management and the Board of Directors of Dreyfus
Strategic Municipals, Inc. and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is
not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.</font></p>
