The following article is from the Mobile Com
mercal Register Of May 9th:
ut appears from the following Circular. adj
dressed to the Post Office at this place. that the
Postmaster General has become sensible that the
irregularities of the great southern mail during
the past winter aud spring. attributable to 9TH
err causes than the inclemency Of the weather.
As an act Of Justice, however to the contractors
between New Orleans and Montgomery, we deem
it proper to state that no part OF the censurefor
the repeated failures that have taken place. is ap
plicabe to them. But two or three have occur
red during the entire season, and those under cir
cumstanccs that human means could not control.
The delinauencies are all TO the east Of Mont
gomery.
Posr OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
Office of Mail Contracts, April 25th, 1881.
Postmaster, Mobile. .4ia.
Sir-Failures have been very frequent. in the
regular arrival of the New Orleans mail at this
Office There are now four due. The Postmas
ter General has determined that this system Of
irregularities shall cease. And it, to effect this OBJ
ect it shall appear to be necessary, to annul eve
nv contract between this and New Orleans. he is
resolved to discharge his duty and to annul them.
He expects that you will in every instance of
a failure oc the New Orleans mail to arrive at

the cause Of The failure if known to you, and for
ward the same in the mail which leaves your Of
flee on the day when the failure takes place.
A similar letter has been sent to the different
distributing Offices on the route from this to New
Orleans.
Very respectfully your ob'dt servant
There is something in the state of things on the
great mail route through the country, that requires
measures of more efficient description, than a
mere letter threatening contractors with the null
LITIGATION of their contracts. During the winter,
the irregularity Of the mails was charged to the
SHOWS, and storms; and in the earlier part of the
spring, to rains, and foods, and broken bridges.
Still the evil exists. BY the mail which arrived
here or the eSth we had Charleston papers of the
18th and Esd Of May, and by that of the 30th we
had papers from the same city of the 10th Nav.
Neither SHOWS. nor storms, nor rains, nor foods,
nor broken bridges, can satisfactorily account
for such irregularities as these.
On Monday we received a letter from sub
scriber in New England, complaining Of the great
,rreguarity of the mails and adding-''I suppose
It probable the delay is owing to the inattention
of Postmasters. because it is a common thing for
letters for this Office to be in the distributing post
Office at Stamford from three to six DAYS. You
NAV perhaps ask how know this? l answer,
that the letters are regularly stamped with the
