PARTMENr.-The bill to revise and
consolidate the postal laws OF the
United States, and re.organize the
Postoffice Department, was passed
by the House of Representatives on
Tuesday. 1t is the longest bill ever
passed by the House but aside from
providing greater efficiency in the
Department, proposes to reform the
abuse of the frankIing privilege by
abolishing it. The bill was mstured
in the last Congress. 1t has yet to
pass the Senate.

Greeley and tho Message.

Horace Greeley warmly approves

Presidents late message; but in no.
gard to the policy foreshadowed of the
control OF the post Office department,
and especially with reference to the
assumption that the department can.
not meet its expenses be urges with
drawing the ranking privilege, and
protests, as follows
We dissent most emphatically from
most of the Presidents suggestions
based on the Postmaster Generals
report. We deny that the expecta-
ton that the post Office should sus>
tain itself in unreasonable. On the
contrary, we hold that the govern
ment should pay its own postage just
as others do, and that those who use
the post Office should sustain it by &
fair and equal assessment of the ex-
pense on those who are benefited by it.
Let everything Transmitted through
the mails be fairly assessed to meet
this expense then, if three cents per
letter does not pay, charge four or
even five. But don't burden the
mails with thousands of tons of free
matter, and then make a parade of
supporting the department from the
federal treasury. The system is ev>
cry way vicious and we are grieved
and amazed that the President still
clings to it. Rip Van Wrinkles TWEEN
ty years sleep is fleabite to his
Then as to the "uniting the tele-
graphic system Of the United States
with the postal SYSTEM" can the
President be unaware that this means
buying out the present stockholders
in telegraphs at treble the cost OF
constructing the existing lines, and
thus enriching q small number at the
expense Of the great body Of their
fellow citizens? He ought to know
this, for we warned him of il person
ally o year ago, and then advised
that the people would not stand it.
Mr.. President! be entreated to get

for there will be q revolving odor gen.
Grated by its consummation. Thirty
millions are to be taken out of the
treasury by it to pay for property
that never cost ten millions and no,
one dollar of that thirty millions will
ever come back again. Indeed, you
tell us that the proposed system
would "secure the further advantages
of extending the telegraph through
portions Of the country lchere priUatt
enterprise ,CU not construct it," Not
doubt of it! Only throw the cost
of extending and maintaining the tel
egraph on those who don't use it, anC
we can have poles and wires, Offices
and batteries, superintendetns and op
orators, whore there is no business
aud probably never will be. But
until the post office is made to pay
its own way, we insist that it sha
let the telegraph alone. Nor viii
