preparation, for franked matter OF the o'her-
ent departments, of 5000, 900, and deduc'ing
the sum of si47,0l3 as received for British
postages, was s5,552,97t 4s. The total ex-
pendiiures were s5, 1853 81. Gross excess

The revenues for the current year are esl-
mated at a total Of, Sc, l66,6l6 %; and the

The Postmaster General recommends,
among other important changes, reduction

Commemorative equitable reform OF charg-
ing the expense of the Congressional frankns
privilege, as well as of the transmission oil
newspaper exchanges, upon the public Irea-
sury, rather than on the private correspond
ence of the country. He recommends that
these charges should 60 iuto effect at the
commencement of the next fiscal year; and
that the commissions allowed to postmaster al
the smaller Offices should be raised, 10 insure
the services Of competent and faithful officers.
He also recommends that ihe-laws regulating
the Department should be revised and their
various provisions re-enacted in one law and
that the Assistant Postmasters General shonld
be placed upon the same footing, in point OF
compensation, as the heads of bureaus in
other Departments.
