xxtrn Sessaon OF Congress.
wAsursaroN, March %.

7, r.r,v n . note of Geo. Mattingby dated
.o d.v he post Master General informs him
that Congress- for the first time since the Or
o.n;z.t;on of the Government failed to make
1rovision for the Post Office Department.
He adds, had all the members of the next
Congress been elected, the President might on
the 18th of March have called an extra session,
and the omission of the late Congress been
supplied until it was impossible to do so with
out DISTINGUISHING ID sovereign States, which
was most unfortunate. There ought to be
no term when full Congress could not be
convened, and it is hoped that such state
of affairs may never again occur a9
Had the bill which failed made provision
only for the fiscal year commencing July LIST.
there would have been obviously no necessity
for an extra session. The deficiency on the
S0th of June, will amount to A. S5, 1888, near
ly 1850, 900 ofwhich being an unpaid balance
accommodating on the 31st of December and
the 2Sth of February, which can and will be
paid by the Department, within 60 DAYS from
this date. g.--' -ta. :
The payment of the principal part will be
made in 80 days. III .a,tI =
The Postmaster General makes these state
ments to show that it will be impossible to
convene Congress in time to meet the great
bulk of the responsibilities without virtually
excluding from Congress the Representatives
of several sovereign States.
In the judgment Of the President, the lesser
evil was to wait until the LIST Monday in De-
cember, when Congress will be full, contracts
can never be reinquished after the amounts
due shall be As certified, they become debts
which must be paid. On this the contractors
if they desire can borrow money, and the
lender could have no better security. Pro
vision should be made for the payment of the
interest which would amount to less than $40,
600. -
\ system of retrenchment so far as prac
ticable is now an important duty. By the
act of 1858 Congress established 695 new
post routes. The service of which includes
the St. Paul and Puget Sound routes, estab
lished in 1855, but not yet put into operation
1t has been estimated that they require ar
annual appropriation of 1904, 43s over and
above receipts accruing therefrom. Not dol
lar has been appropriated for this purpose
and as consequence, though the contracts
for those routes have been advertised an6
proposals received, they cannot be put in op
Grafton until provisions shall be made for then
by law.
