,nsh other information as will enable them TO serve
n.r.ons desiring TO invest in Railroad securities,
or TO procure information ofany matters connected
with the construction and administration OF Rail-
Roads They also propose, especially, TO urge
upon Congress a modification OF the laws relat-
;no 10 contracts for carrying the mail, so as to au-
,hor;ze the Post Office Department TO contract for
,he nernetuni use Of Rail Roads, and, instead OF
n.v,no as now, quarterly on contracts for four

the Post Office Departmental amount, the inie-
rest upon which at 6 per cent would equal the
payments now made. o
carving the mail on first class Railroads. This
Is 6 per cent on 5000. The undersigned would
urpe that, instead Of paying $500 mile, per an
mum, the Department should deliver, on acontract
in perpetuty, FIVE 81 900 bonds, bearing an Inte-
rest Of FIVE per centum AZ this rate the charge
10 1850 mile, per annum, and the $50 per mile
,syed would create sinking fund which will, IN
fewvears nav ofhe Bonds and give the use OF such
roads forever thereafter, free Of all charge there
by efecting a vast saving on the present annual
expenditures Of the Pc Office Department, and
a consequent reduction Of the rates OF postage.
The effect will be no less advantageous TO ksll-
Road Companies than to the government For
instance, such contract would give TO the Baltl-
more ard Ohio Rail. Rond Company more than
a. 600, 900, which would enable that complete ITS
road at an early day, and greatly increase It's busl-
ness and profits.
But to meet objections and impress the public

from this measure will require concert or action
