---'RHs 'enfiector of Frerchman's Bay, Mr.
Jones, took possession Of the rooms prepared
in the New Custom House Building. for his
department Of the government service on
Saturday the lst inst. The accommodations
are very superior and the Offices are ample
in size, beautifully located, and tastefullv.
but plainly fitted up. The Government al
lowed II small sum to furnish the Collector s
room, which seems to have been judcously.
and economically expended. The Furniture
is OF the plainest and most substantial char
acter, while it is all tina, is needed for the
convenience Of the collector, or those doing
business with him.
We have had something to say about the
wastefnl extravagance of the government in
the erection of its many public buildings
and something about this one in Ellsworth
and we still think that private enterprise
could project and complete buildings OF the
same character, for third less money /; but
then, if tie government will squander i,s
funds, We have a good right to claim tina,
some Of its surplus eagles shall be scattered
hereabouts. We therefore congratulate our
fellow citizens that we have 50 good Build.
ing as we have, and such nice Post Office &C.
commodations, and such fine and eligible
rooms for the Custom House. The exterior
OF the building has not very prepossessing
appearance it is true, but its internal ar.
rangements are such as to secure the very
best accommodation for the purposes intend.

That we have not performed as many good
