Payments OF similar nature to the foregoing
were made under the act of the LIST Of July, 1890,
and subsequent acts, but from the destruction of
accounts and vouchers by the coullagration of
1911, the Treasury do possess the means of as
eraining the amounts expended with any preci-
sion. In the printed public accounts for the year
1874, however, the sum of 800 appears to have
been advanced to Edmund Randolph. Secretary of
State, on account of the &c contingent charges Of
Government pursuant to instructions of the Pre-
sident OF the u States; aud also, in the same ac-
counts for 1896, the of $4,000 appears to have
been advanced to Timothy Pickering, Secretary
OF State to deiray the contingent charges Of Co
vernment."

operations VIII exceed Six hund, I'd letters daily
not unireguentiy ope:, with my own hands be-
tween two and three hundred letters in a day, on
business relating TO the various branches of the Of
hce. SO extensive and complicated are its details,
that an accurate view of the annual amount of la
Dor canno, be formed, without practical
knowledge on the subjec,. There is believed TO
be no civil branch OF governmental operation, in
'his or any other country, which equals this. De
pa'tment in extent, which embraces great a
variety OF interests Not less than twenty live
thousand agents are daily and hourly engaged in
It's service--a greater number Than all the agents
OF the Government beside, including the Army and
Navy.
In regulating this immense force, it cannot he
organized into masses, and controlled by RESPONSE
BILE heads as the Army and Navy. Most OF the
agents act separately and independently of each
other, and are each responsible TO the Chief of the
Department. This arises from the nature OF their
duties, ami causes more extensive correspondence
than is required in the other Departments of the
Government. .
The public interest is intimately concerned in
The faithful conduct of all the persons employed in
the operations of the mail; and the slightest onlis-
sion Of duty in any of them cannot fail pro-
duc> some Inconvenience, which may afford ground
OF complaint. Under such circumstances, some
idea may be formed Of the necessary energy in this
Office, which controls and is responsible for the in
ui''uudl acts q! 50 great u NHOer vi agents W nat
Is necessary TO be done to-day cannot be postponed
until tomorrow, without injury TO the pubic, and
probably some loss OF character to the Department.
Hence, the necessity Of unceasing vigilance in all
the clerks of this office. Ii is bIteved that they
industrious and efficient any Off GERS
OF the same grade employed BY the Government,
and that the public is as much benefited by their
hbors. They receive less compensation than the
clerks employed in the other Departments. A re-
duction OF their number, or failure TO authorize
the necessary additional aid. will perayze the ope
raiions of the Department, and cause il TO taxi a
retrograde movement. The effects of this would
be severely felt by the commercial and other inter
ests OF the country.
l know Of no expenses incident to the Depart
nent which can be reduced, without impairing thr
efficiency of its operations. In the making of con-
tracts, for several years past, there has been great
retTenchment OF expenditure. taking into view the
amount OF service provided for; but this only
be accomplished By the ordinary progress of making
contracts
