SATURDAY NIGHT, DEC. IL, Is47.


The very able and well.writen report of the Post
Office Department which lay before our readers this
evening, will attract special attention, exhibiting an
account of the working of the system of reduced postage
lately put in operation Under every administration this
department has, from obvious enough been made
TO greater or less extent, the object of unjust and ac
monious conplaint Its present head having been
obliged TO meet the responsible task of conducting the
public mail service under and untried system es.
tabshed by Congress, (and which, OF course, all its
details of legislation could hardly be expected to be per-
feet st,) has not altogether escaped the common lot
OF his predecessors. Yet the full and clear account
which he now renders of the operations of his depart
ment during the past year, must be admitted by every
candid Judgment form satisfactory refu,ation Of
the unfounded complaints which have been from time to
time in some quarters put forth and must be regarded
as showing that all the powers conferred upon him by
existing laws have been most judicously and ener-
getically and ably exerted to extend and promote the
public service.
The exposition given of the working OF the new law
Isl upon the whole, emnenty gratifying 10 the friends
and advocates of cheap postage 1t appears that during
the last fiscal year, ending the Both of June last, the
public mails transported aggregate distance
of 1873 500 miles, at expense of 2,iO6S4s. The
aggregate extent of the routes that day 53,slS
miles, and since that day $3.50 miles of routes have
been put in operation The of the department
during the last fiscal year, Gncudng the amount appro
priaed pay the government posage having increased
more than thirteen per cent upon the revenues of the
last preceding year, amounted to $3,9I5,s93. The
pendures for the same time ,570beng only
1888 677 more than the The estimate of reve
nues and expenditures of the department for the present
fiscal year shows the considerable of over
expenditures of $213,95l
Two of the principal points TO which the report in
vokes the attention of Congress are, the law fixing the
of payment for the various grades of transportation
and the existing position and powers of the department
in respect TO foreign and international postal arrange
ments The necessity of further legislation upon both
these subjects, view of existing facts, is demonstrated
in the report with much force and ability that Con-
gress will doubtless give their favorable attention TO its
suggestions.
The present condition and prospects Of the department
are in every way emnenty credtable the ability udg
ment and diligence with which its have been
administered by the present distinguished Postmaster
General.
