against the passage of the funding
bill, but were refused permission,
the funders fearing that the protest
might assist in sporting" them in
the future. But why abuse the anti

The American girl of books is an ideal
existence. The real girl, who has lust
returned from the country, and is occu-
pyins herself with preparations for the
approaching winter, is not at all difficult
10 describe. She is girl of immence
energy and but little physical strength.
She has, if she can be judged by what
she accomplishes, a noble digestion; or
perhaps, to be more accurate, she has no.
bly, triumphed over her digestion, and re-
duced tito complete submission. She is
not highly educated, nor does she speak
all foreign languages with smoothness
and correct idiom; indeed, she has been
known to play strange tricks with her
own tongue. She is lively, but not wit
ty; she is fond of laughing. without car
ing very much at what she laughs; she
is noisy and loud when she dares to be.
As general rule she knows little or
nothing of those matters which used to be
considered essential parts of woman's
education, and intends, if she is rich. to
have housekeeping, when once she is
married, done for her by some one else ::
and il she is poor she does not think
abont 1t any more than she can help
Her notions about marriage itself are a
curious mixture of ideas derived from
novels, poems, aud such acquaintance
with the world as girls get from the con-
versation OF young men who dan ce the
herman with them through the winter
and walk on the cliffs at Newport with
them in the summer. Her life, if she is
rich, Is in general one Of thoughtlsss

Few persons are aware OF the vast

sixteen stations in different parts Of the

tirely on New York. Nearly ,25O, 900
of letters are delivered every week.
while l2O tons of mail matter pass
through the office each twenty-four
hours. The immense increase in busi-
ness will be perceived when it is
known that III 1894 the amount Of mail
matter passing through the office was
but eighteen tons per day. Eighteen
to twenty thousand dollars of money!
orders are sent, and some $50, 900 are
cashed per week.
Not less than S10,0O0 worth Of
stamps are daily sold, making an an
nuai aggregate of considerably more
than $4,000, 900. The amount of busi-
ness in the registering department NAV
be estimated from the fact that from
SS,000,00O to Sl8,000,000 of bonds
are usually registered on steamer DAYS.
Nearly sixty regular mails leave the
office, and about as many are received
every day. Some thirty mail steamers
sail hence every week, all of them, cs-
pecially the foreign steamers, carrying
heavy mails.
These facts and figures may appear
large, though they would not to anv

sometimes get choked with the guam
tity. There are boxes for printed mat
ter for letters for the North. East,
South and West, as we'll as for Great
Britain, different parts of the conti-
nent, the East and West Indies, etc.
1t is curious to stand inside and OBJ
serve the continuous stream of letters
flowing from the different boxes. A
man stands before each, and with
small wooden rake, not unlike that of
the continental croupiers, collects the
letters and packets Of every size, form
and color, and hands them to an as.
sistant, who prepares them for the
mail. AT some stamp windows,
