The ENGLISH MAIL SERvICE-The English Post
master Generals Report for the year 1862 has lust
been published. This highly interesting work con-
tains a great many facts and figures which show bet
ter than theory and abstract philosophy how ciyiliza-
ton rapidly and irresistibly has spread and is spread
ing over the globe, and how human intellect is
mastering time and space. 1t is really astonishing
to see with what regularity and accuracy the various
communications. letters and papers of all kinds, from
all parts of the earth, are converging to, and radiat-
ing from the General Post Office in London, where
about a million OF letters alone are daily received,
assorted, registered and dispatched. 1t would lead
us too far to follow the Report in all its particulars,
we only select one part to say u few words about
the Ocean Mail Service.
This service, chiefly performed by private companies
under contract, is admirably conducted, and the
punctuality with which it is executed is one of the
most wonderful achievements of this wonderful age.
A few examples cannot fail to interest our readers.
. The arrival of the mails, Uia Mlarseilles, dispatched
from Sydney, New South Wales, distant nearly 49,
900 miles, on the 22d September; from Calcutta,
distant 5000 miles, on the 10Th October; from
Shanghae, distant upwards Of III 900 miles, on the
18th, and from Hong Kong, distant upwards of
10000 miles, ON the 18th September the mails were
all due in London OH the 18th November, at mid
night. and they arrived one hour and ten minutes
before TINT time" The mails sent from Southampton
to the West Indies and Central America have arrived
at their destination at the precise moment when they
are due; and those for Chill, after having been car
ried across the Isihmus of Panama. have been
delivered at Valparaiso, 1900 miles from Southamp-
Ton, TWO hours DeIofe the hppointeu tune. transit,
therefore, is calculated with as much certainty by
sea as by land-a distinctive triumph of human in
tellect, attesting the skill of the naval architect who
constructs the machine. and of the navigator who
acquires an absolute mastery over its operations. To
keep up this regularity the feet of steamships, their
tenders not included, is So, with AN aggregate of
l40. 900 tons. and of Sc, 900 horse power. The
largest and most powerful vessel employed in this
service is the Scotia, of 3,S7I tons ard 1,0s0-horse
power; and the smallest is the Pivid. of 300 tons
and 12S horse power. which runs between Dover and
Calais and Dover and Ostend. This Post oific, fleet.
if we may so call it, is manned by a force of 5000
sailors and officers, and SO naval agents who are
officers in rhe Royal navy. Such is a rapid outline
of one part of an administ rative machinery which IS
rs admirable as it is complicated, as useful as it is
wonderful

NAPoLEoN's STRENGTH.-TO strangers at q distance
the Emperor's power may seem autocratic; but. as
was very properly reminded, he is bound down and
confined by that universal suffrage which placed him
where he is, and which always possesses the power to
destroy what it has chosen to create. L can assure
you, from actual knowledge and observation, that
Napoleon's security is insured by the very men who
upset the Orleans dynasty and established the repub-
lie Of 1S4S, and several of the leaders of that grow
ingly powerful party assured me of their regret that
the Emperor is not twenty five years younger, so as
TO guarantee their safety from the assaults of the
clergy. Under his strong rule they are enabled TO
devote all their energies to the education and enlight-
eminent of the people. in which France has hitherto
been so deficient; and they look with the utmost fear
to his death, knowing that the regency of the En-.
press would bring about n state OF things similar to
the reign of Charles ", and, subsequently, confusion
worse confounded. The Emperor must, of course,
know where his real strength is 10 be found in France,
and will not do anything TO impair it.
| have seen many proofs of this, which are likely
to escape strangers, unless pointed out to them by
Frenchmen; and yet outward appearances would go
to prove that the Emperor is supreme in the country
and only acts from his own vOlition. He is on the
very best Of terms, nevertheless, with the leading
men of the Republican party, and they talk with him
behind the scenes; and If you want a better proof of
this than my mere assertion you have only to watch
the course of such journals as the Opinion Nation
ale and the Steele. From all this | do not wish you
TO suppose me to assert that the Emperor Napoleon
has any ideas favorable TO republican liberty.
My impression is that he knows full we'll the strength
of that growing and growingly reasonable party, and
that he courts 1t as an Offset TO the enormous strength
OF the clergy, the one main purpose of his policy
being the consolidation and perpetuation of his dy.

ABsTRaCr OF rae Report OF THE u. :. PosTMAs-
TER-GESERAL-The report of the P0stmaster General
shows the receipts of the department TO have been
S1l los, 7S7 and the expenditures Sll 4.2O6.
There is good reason to believe that the department
will be se!f-sustaining IN a brief period Of time. The
whole number Of TOst Offices existing on the 3Oth OF
June, 1863, was 29,O47, being an increase over the
preceding year Of 172. No progress has been made
in negotiations for Il new postal connection with
Prussia, embracing the States composing the German
Austrian Postal Union, on account Of some obstacle
presented by Austria, in regard to territorial transit
charges.
The value of stamps issued to Postmasters during
the year is ,3S2; stamped letter envelopes
S63i,o2l, and stamped newspaper wrappers 3d.
$40. The total value of these sold TO the public,
Wal S9,62i $50 81. being an excess over the pre-
vious year Of 50, IA, 1877 73.
The Postmaster General renews his recommends
ton TO authorize him to adjust and allow the claims
OF Postmasters who have sustained losses Of stamps
and stamped envelopes by reason of the occupation
and robbery of their offices by bodies of armed men,
These claims thus far presented amount to about
$1,000. He calls attention also 10 the fact that these
POstmasters have suffered greatly in the loss Of pri-
vate properly. He requests additional legislation in
respect TO post Office thefts. and recommends that the
stealing of letters and stamps be made a penal OF ence.
for delivery, was 1892, covering a value of 8 ,544,-
277. He that a postal money order
system be established to facilitate the transmission
of small sums through the mails. which be is conf
dent would prove not only a great convenience to
soldisrs and citizens, but would almost entirely obvi-
ate the loss of this class of remittances.
