MR. STEPHENS ON THE PUBLIC EXPENDITURES
MI stephens, of Georgia, is reported to
hrve employed the following language in a
recent caucus of Democratic Representatives
at Washington:
Mr.. Stephens said when he first entered
Congress in 1913, the expenses of the gov.
ernment were only thirty millions per an.
mum. The country had gone through the
expensive Mexican war, with sixty.three
thousand soldiers in the field for ffty.threc
millions, and now, in time of peace, the esti.
mates were seventy millions. Many
expenditures were wholly unnecessary. and
reform was indispensably needed lie be
lieved forty millions an abundance for the
national expense He was therefore opposed
to an increase of duties, and said the expend-
iture should be brought within the present
receipts

CHINESE INSURGENTS During the three
days that stayed at Canton, l witnessed a
fracas amongst the Emperor's soldiers. A
Chinese army is the most ludicrous affair i'm
aginable. How shall describe these absurd
warriors, dignifed by the titles of "war-
tigers" and "mountain-splitters" Standing
ton lofty terrace, was quite near enough
10 distinguish all their proceedings. Armed
with lances and cumbrous matchlocks, they
crowded along in the greatest disorder, and
almost every soldier carried an umbrella, a
fan, and lantern; all of which forcibly re-
minded me of the Chinese burlesque that l
had seen in San Francisco. The perpetual
laundering of the frequent encounters which
took place beyond the walls, and the cannon,
the brawling and skirmishing of the insur-
gents false alarms by which we were con-
tinually harrassed, all combined to hasten
our return to HOngkong.-A LadYs CdptiVi-

ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE,


mdICu {, loOJ'
To The assembly of the State of California:
The undersigned would respectfully but
earnestly request that the Attorney General
may be excused from acting as one of the
State Prison Directors, as proposed in the
bill which has passed the Senate, and is now
pending before the House and would state
the following as his chief reasons for making
such request, to w.t. That he will not be
able to devote all the time in the discharge of
the duties of such office as its importance will
require that he is we'll satisfied the expenses
of the State Prison during the next year will
greatly exceed those of the past on account
of the increase of convicts and the advanced
cost of provisions that about all the neces-
sary improvements at San Quintin have been
made during the past year, and hence there
will not be employment for the convicts suf-
ficiently remunerative to make reasonable
offsets to the expenses of that institution
The consequence will be, that, with great
plausibility, mismanagement will be charged
against the Directors of the next year, and
unjust comparisons instituted between that
and the past.
The undersigned feels it a duty which he
especially owes TO himself to make this re
quest. Respectfully, &c,

Extensive Frauds on the Post Office
Department. by the use OF Counter
felt Postage Stamps.

WASHINGTON. June 7. 1859.
Recent investigations in the affairs of the
Post Office lead to the belief that that depart
ment of the government loses one million of
dollars year by the use of counterfeit and
rewashed postage stamps. 1t is believed
that there are two classes of persons engaged
in this nefarious busness-one which manu-
features, either from engraved or photograph
ed plates, and sells new postage stamps; and
another that gathers those which have been
used from waste paper collections and by
means of an acid washes off the Post Office
stamp that was put on them when they passed
through the Office
Under the present postal system there is
no means of guarding against the first named
evil, for the manufacture of the postage stamp
is so simple that one man can max" his plate
and produce thousands of sheets without the
aid of single person To dispose of them
he has only to come into collision with some
of the poslmasters or their clerks, of which
there are more than fifty thousand in all
throughout the country, and the constant
loss of money in passing through the mails
does not give high standard of honesty
among them. All of them are entrusted with
the sale of stamps, and no check can be kept
upon them, for there is no possibility of ascer-
tanning how many stamps are IN the hands
of the people. When letters are posted the
clerks have no time to scrutinise the stamp
on them, and they are rapidly defaced with
a black stamp. AS the letters with the
defaced stamp on them pass again into the
hands of the people, the department can form
no positive idea TO what extent the fraudulent
stamps are nsed
The same difficulty of detection attends the
rewashed stamps, but they are supposed TO be
used to a less extent than the cOunterfeits. on
account of the greater facilities for selling
the latter. Efforts have been made. both in
this country and in England, where the same
difficulty is encountered, TO obtain an iudeli
Bile ink for the purpose of defacing the used
cheney of orr police system for preventing
the operations of cOunterfeiters leaves the
manufacturer of surreptitious postage stamps
TO labor with impunity.
1t is the opinion of persons well versed in
the affairs of the Post Office Department here,
that these frauds have intimate come ctiOn
with the deficiency in its revenues, and could
the Postmaster General devise some means to
stop them, the Department would he self
sustaining one. The only possible manner of
doing it seems to be TO abolish entirely the
use Of postage stamps, and resort TO prepay
ment by the use of stamped envelopes. which
should be guarded in their manufacture by
water marks in the paper, and every other
continuance and Improvement Ill the style
and construction OF the envelopes which The
Postmaster General can possibly devise. with
out increasing too much the cost of the
envelope to the public.
