West, and upon the Western rivers, added
to the placing of two steamers, the Prank
lin and Humboldt, on the New York and
II, vre line. have all contributed TO entail
burdens onthe revenues Of the Department.
The Report refers, in this connection. to the
subject of compensating Postmasters, and
suggests the propricty Of making liberal pro-
vision for this purpose.
The question of Cheap Postage is discuss
sed at considerable length. The Post
Master General compares the results of the
system in Great Britain with tie reduced
rates Of the United States, and believes that
we are admonishcd by the comparison not to
attempt further reduction until it shall be
justified by the revenues. He suggests that
the rates Of postage on al printed matter can
be rendered more uniform and less complex
by the adoption Of suitable rates, without di-
minishing the revenue very materially.
The special Agents Of the Department
have been actively employed. Mr.. Ho5Jlc
was dispatched to Cu0a and Panama to cl-
feet suitable Mail arrangements for the
West Indies. South America and points on
the Gulf Of Mexico. These objects were
temporarily attained but the increase Of cor
respondencc will soon render moro perfect
arrangements desirable. 1t is recommended
that adequate provision be made for the pay
ment of Mr.. Hobbies expenses, while he
was absent upon this mission. As 10 Cali
iornia and Oregon, contracts have been exc
cutcd for the residue of the contract term. to
end on the 30th June, 1854. The report al
so refers to the opening of the route now in
operation by way Of Lake Nicaragua.
The contracts with the Cunard and Collins
steamships; the subject Of postal conmunica-
ton between the United States and Mexico,
by line of steamers running from New
Orleans to Vera Cruz via Tampico; the con-
veyancc of letters hithcr from foreign ports
without delivery TO the Post Office; the ne
ces,ity of guardidg the mails from robbery
and the increasing abuses of the frauking
privilcge-are scverally dwell upon, and re-
comendations are made, in relation there
to, which will attract attention,
Certain Improvements in the organization
Of the Department are suggested; and til,
Report concludes with recommendation fol
a thorough revision of the law which aliec
the government and the officers of the Gen
eral Post Office.

Brazil has prohibited the slave trade among
her subjects.
The Brazil Squadron consists of four ves-
sells, under Com. McKeevcr; the Pacific of
several vessels under Com. McCauley: and
the East India Squadron of four vessels un-
der Com. Aulick.
The Secretary bestows high and descr-
we'd praise upon those engaged in the Arc
tic Expedition. and announces the fact that
Mr.. Henry Grinnell has generously offered
his vessels for another cruise in search of
Sir John Franklin, should Congress author
ise second expedition.
The Report gives an interesting account
of the docks and yards, and from this we
learn that the Brooklyn stone dock cost 81
l4625j.
The floating docks in Philadelphia and
San Francisco are progressing, and the lat
ter is to be completed for 100000. The
site for it, however, will not be selected un-
i'll next spring, when a site for navy yard
will also be selected.
The Steamer Mississippi is to go to Phila-
deiphia, TO test the dock there, and for the
purpose Of repair.
The Secretary recommends the employ
ment of class Of small vessels, to be COM
manded by Senior Lieutcnants.
The number of masters, it is thought.
should be enlarged to fifty, and the grade OF
second Lieutenant established.
The Secretary comments upon the defect
incident to want Of punishment in the Ma
val Code, and the mischief incident to long
mprisonmonts, rather than more summary
punishments.
1t is recommended to establish a Bakery
in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, for the prepare.
tion of Navy Bread; and TO establish new
Bureau, to be known as the Bureau Of Or.
ders and Discipline.

Stranger, Has it Lit"

A few weeks since, one Of the mountain
boys visited Gainesville, for the purpose of
taking his first ride on the rail road. When
the cars arrived AT that place, our hero was
there patiently waiting, and much excited
and clated in anticipating his intended ride
As the ears approached, he stood gazing
with wonder and awe. at the engine, putting
and smoking. Following the example Of
others, as soon as the cars stopped, he hur-
ried aboard, with his saddle bags on his arm,
and seated himself near 4 window. Then
looking around at the passengers, manifestly
much surprised, he puts his head out at the
window to see the ''critter start While in
this position, watching with intense anxiety,
the whistle sounded. Our hero, much sur
prised and evidently a little alarmed, drew
back his head, with motion that might be
called 4 jerk, and turning 10 gentleman sit

and before our hero had recovered from III,
shock which the snort produced, the car

how it moved, saw that he was some dis

Report of the Postmaster General.

The annual report Of the Postmaster Gen
eral is a long anl able document. Ii gives a
clear idea of the vast extent Of the Post Office
operations Of this country suggests some i'm
portant improvements, and abounds in use
lul statements.
1t appears that an actual increase Of
1855 per cent. occurred during the past fs-
cal year in American Postages, while the ap-
parent increase on American and foreign
payments to the Department, amounts TO
lG! per cent. Or, in figures, the receipts
for American and Foreign Postages for the
fiscal year, exceeded those Of the preceding
year, 5000, ,223 S5; but excluding the bal
ancc cccrmng to the British Post Office, in
order to indicate the increase ofour own pos
tagcs the amount reaches $997,6l0 o.
During the last quarter of the fiscal year,
sensible reduction took place in domestic
postage, attributable to the near approach Of
that period to the time fixed by the Act of
March Sd, 1850, to establish cheaper rates
of postage. \ consequent delay in cores
pondcnce was natural result. A similar
reduction was observed upon the adoption Of
the reduced rates under the Act Of lH45.-
The claims o. the Franking privilege by GER
tain members Of the present Congress also
contributed to this reduction.
The Report contains formidable array Of
figures relating to the business Of the De-
partmcnt during the year; OF which the i'm
portant points are as follows, viz:

turn stock, and answers an excellent pur-
pose. Several other persons in Saline and
Lafayette counties, have pieces of young
hedge ofa greater or less length, and we
believe that all who have tried it, have full
confidence in its success.
Mr.. w. Brown, citizen Of this coun-
ty, has established Nursery of Usage Or
ange Plants some eight miles east Of Glas-
gov, near the residence of John Harvey,
Esq. He proposes TO furnish hedge-plonts,
the right size for transplanting, to farmers
throughout the State, who may wish them,
at 35cts per rod, or 800 for each mile Of
hedge-one half Of the purchase money to
be paid on the delivery of plants, and the
balance in three years. To each purchas er
who follows directions, he guarantees a
good hedge, at the end Of three years. Plants
to replace those that die out, he furnishes
without extra charge.
Now although not well versed in the exact
cost of ordinary fencing, it strikes us that
the terms mentioned above ere CHEAP, besides
being very fair and reasonable. We do not
think it would be difficult to demonstrate
that, even where timber is most plenty, an
ordinary rail fence costs more than 500
per mile, to say nothing Gifts liability to ro.,
or to be blown down by the winds. In prai-
rie situations, where rails have to be hauled
from five to ten miles, the cost Of mile Of
ordinary fence must be from two to three
hundred dollars.
From these considerations, we are induced
to believe, that the Usage Hedge will sooner
or later, come into general use throughout
the prairies, and perhaps to considerable
extent in the timber lands also.
Those who have mind to try this new
mode Of fencing, should send in their orders
by mall TO Mr.. Brown at this place, at any
time previous to the first of March. We
learn that Mr.. b. intends, 10 permanently
keep up his nursery.
