,mpr,soumeus for Debt.

The Lesislstare Of Maryland has distinguished
the session lately closed by two acts Of a most
laudable ohsracter-one Of justice and the other o
humanity and justice. 1t passed an act providing
TOR the payment of the interest on the State Debt
and an act abolishins the imprisonment of non-
residents for debt.
Before the enactment OF this latter act, any
stranger passing through Baltimore was liable to
arrest Many have been arrested on causes Of &C
ton notoriously groundless an instance Of which
has Just happened, and been communicated to Us.
A gentleman left Washington City week since
having obtained from the justice of Congress the
liquidation Of claim he had against Government
tor some thousands Of dollars He was passing
through Baltimore on his way TO New.York, in
company with some Members of Congress and
other gentlemen during the short hour the cars

the two Houses he was arrested tor 81 900 The
claim was incapable Of proof but the eentlemsn
wss obliged. nevertheless, to give bail which he
happily found no difficulty in procuring. But many

Postmaster GENERALS REPORT

POSTMASTER GENERALS REPORT
The report is confined to the operations
of the post-office department for the last
year.
The gross income under the cheap pos.
tage system, for the year ending June
30lh, 1916, was 3,47S,l99 35. The
average yearly income for nine years,
ending June 25, 1916, was $4,364, $685.
G5-making the receipts under the new
law less by 1857, 425 90 than under the
old law. This diminution is traced in 9TH
er causes than the reduction OF postage,
and for the remedy of these 1t IS recon-
mended:
That the law be so amended as to make
the single letter weigh one quarter instead
Of the half ounce, except in the case of
a letter weighing less than half an ounce
and written upon single sheet of paper.
That the same power. be given to the
Postoffice Department, TO prevent viola
ton of its revenue laws, as is now given
to the Secretary Of the Treasury, against
smugglers.
That all letters passing over mail routes
which relate to the cargo, be free, when
they are unsealed, and subject to the in.
speclion of the Postoffice agent, when
fraud is suspected. And that the postage
on newspapers be so adjusted as to APP
proach more nearly the cost of transpor.
sation and delivery, and be made more
equal and just. as between the publishers.
This may be accomplished without any
material interference with the policy Of
disseminating intelligence among the PEG.
pie by their general circulation.
The expenditures of the department in
the year ending June 30, 1916, amounted
to $4,O4S,29e %, which left deficiency
over receipts of $597, 097 81.
A detail is then given of the extent o
the mail service over roads, &C., anC
some remarks upon the extension of great
er mail facilities to Texas.
He calls the attention Of Congress Il
the fact that private express is run be
tween Montgomery Gala } and Mobile, Oh
the arrival at the former place of news b.
the steamers.
The contractors for the transportation
of the mails between New York and Bre
men, by ocean steamers, are rapidly pro
crossing with the construction of the frs
vessel, and but little doubt is entertaine
that the service will be commenced earl
in the spring.
1t is proposed also TO extend the lin
of foreign mails to other places.
On the subject of the Telegraph tn
Postmaster General recommends for con
elusive reasons, that the lines Of the telt
graph should be owned and controlled b
: the United States Government, and it
+. to be hoped that Congress will approve h
recommendation.

San LniS PntNSi.

The following sketch of this city, now
the head quarters of the Mexican army,
we find in the N. Y Herald:
San Luis Potosi is the capital Of the
department of that name; indeed it is the
only large town in the department. This
department, in the time of the Spaniards,
was of immense extent; it comprised Ia
maulipas, New Leon, Coahuila and Texas,
a tract of country containing $4,000
square leagues.
| In general, the soil of the department
of San Luis is fertile; but it chiefly as a
grazing country that it resources are great.
With cattle of all kinds, particularly hor-
ses and mules the department is overrun.
With these animals the South Of Mexico is
supplied. Most of The fine horses you see
curvetting in the ALEMADA or park OF
Mexico, are from the farms in the depart
ment of San Luis. The RANCHERos
hereabout are a fine athletic race, and IN.
surpassed as horsemen.
There are several silver mines in the
. department of San Luis, the principal o
which are Catoree, La Purssirna, Cerrf
/. de Charco, and Real de Charco. Of these
0 the mine of Catoree is the most produc
tive, nav, if we may believe Humboldt, i
I Yields more silver than any mine in Mex
. leo, with the exception of uanaiuato.-
O Catoree is Just half way between Saltll
/. 10 and San Luis, and is right in the tract
is of Gen. Tay lor, should he march in tn
Of drectloN Of San Luis.
D. Of the city of San Luis itself, we ma
a, observe that it is very fine one, an
contains 10000 inhabitants. 1t is 80
D from Monterey; $40 from the city {
d. Mexico, and 200 from Tampico. As i
0: most Mexican towns the streets of Sa
m Luis intersect each other a: right angle:
,e and meet in what is called the PLAZA, {
of great square The houses like those
Monterey, are castles in miniature. I
ne take this town it will be necessary to c
M what was done at Monterey-work thr
at the party walls of the houses.
tx San Luis, like the city of Mexico,
10 supplied with water by an aqueduct. o.
RS generals will please bear THAT in mInd.-
an Sine.tenths of the inhabitants of 81
" L.uis are Indians and MEsTIzoEs. 1t
n. said that there are more wine shops
oil San Luis than in any other Mexican toV
a. and that, in consequence, brawls and h
micides are of frequent occurrece.
There are few manufactures at >
nj, Luis. There is not much intercourse
Ip- tween this place and Mexico, San Luis
lat getting the greater part of its supplies
lr- foreign merchandise from TamPico,
