My attention has been particularly directed chap

business details of the department arranged under appro

pom him by virtue of his appointment
1t work which should be upon the table of all he ads

and will also be found be invaluable assistant to
members of Congress and others having business at the
public offices, will not only direct them to the proper
place of their inquiry, but win ia very great degree in
form them of the in which the business itself is

to YOURSELF facilitate the labors OF others; and cannot
