The Report Of the Postmaster Gene
ral viii bning YOU acquainted with he
operations Ct the Department .duriag .,he
past year, and will suggest 20 Won such
notifications Of The existing laws A il
your oPinion lie esigencies Of The pub
nc service may require. The change
whseil the country has undergone Of lale
years % The mode Of travel and transport
taiion has afforded so many facilities for
The transmission Of mail matter out OF the
regular mail, as 10 require the greatest Vi
GLANCE and circumspeciion in order 10 en-
able The officer Al the head ofihe Depart
ment 10 restrain The expenditures within
The Income. There is also too much rea-
son 70 fear that The ranking privilege has
run into great abuse. The Department
nevertheless has been conducted with The |
greatest vigor, and has attained a. The
least possible expense, all The useful OBJ
Iecis for which il was established.
Ia regard 70 all the Departments, am
quite happy in he belief that nothing has
been left undone which was called for nv
true spirit Of economy, or BY a system
u accountability rigidly enforced. This
Is in some degree apparent from The fnci,
that the Government has sustained no loss
BY the defanlt Of any Of i $ agents. In the
complex, bat al the same time, beautiful
Of our system Of Government,
! Is not matter OF syrp'ise that some
'emo'e agency may have failed for an in
liant 10 fulfil lis desired Office; but | feel
confident in the assertion, that nothing
las occurred To interrupt The harmonious
lclion Of the Government itself. and that,
While the laws have been executed with
and vigor. The rights neither of
Ia'es nor individuals have been tranpied
IN or ,lisregarded.
In the mean time the country has been
iea,iily advancing in all that contributes
o national greatness. The tide Of po-
'ulation continues unhrokenly TO flow in
o the new states and territories, where
elnge is faand not only for our native ,
'orn fellow-cilizens, but Tor emigrants .
rom all parts of the civilized world, WIN
;ome among us to partake of the bless .
ngs of our free institutions, and to aid by
heir labor 10 swell the current Of eur :
wealth and power. +,
IL is due TO every consideration of pub ,
&c policy that the lakes and rivers of The
Vest should receive all such attention at
he hands oi Congress as the CONSTITUTION
will enable il to be>tow. Works in ia ]
orable and proper situations on elakes /
would be found to be indispensably ne ,
essary, in case of war, to carry on safe
nd successful naval operations, as fnrti-
cations on the Atlantic sea board, The
ppropriatiOa made by the last Congress ,
Or the improvement OF the navigating of ]
he Mississippi river, has been diligently {
pplied.
