Post Master Generals Report.

In noticing the first report OF Hon. Marshall
Jewell, Z. NJ. General, the Baltimore 4merl-
can makes the following just and sensible re-
! marks, which we fully endorse:
1.-THE annual report Of the Postmaster Gen.
eral, which we publish to-day, is SO brief that
it will repel no one from attempting its read
ing, whilst the broad, practical common sense
by which it is strongly marked will insure for
its statements and suggestions a keen interest
and general approval. 1t is something so new
as to at once demand attention, that a Post
master General should regard his Department.,
not us a costly money-consumlng concern, but
as something that should be self-sustainlng and
able 20 keep its expenditures within the limits
imposed by its receipts. Mr.. Jewell puts this
idea forward by very forcible process when
he says: For the first time in the course OF 4
life devoted actively to business, | find myself
in charge OF an establishment the expenditures
Of which largely exceed its receipts state of
thing which strikes with great force mind more
or less disciplined by that close inspection Of ac-
counts enforced in mercantile pursuits. In
ordinary business affairs there lis but Que end
to this condition of tldngs-bankrr.ptcy.
There is in this brief sentence lesson for those
State, Federal and municipal politicians who
are forever contriving necessities for increased
expenditure, with its consequences OF aug
laented taxation The Postmaster General
proposes to see whether there is not i'll this
matter room for such PRINCIPLES as the business
man recognizes and adopts when he finds that
he is spending too much and making too little.
The statistics Of the Department are briefly and
quite clearly presented. The revenues of the
Department for the year ending June 80, 1874,
were $24, $50, 56S, and the expenditures S32,
| l26. Az. The estimated expenditures for the
year ending June 30. 1875, are 1876, 964, o34, and
the total estimated revenue s2s.14s, l56.; lcav-
ing deficiency to be appropriated out Of the
general Treasury OF s7,sl5,87s. These csti-
mates do not include appropriations for steam
ship service and stamps, amounting to 81, O9S-
500 The Money Order Bureau continues to
render satisfactory service, but the Postmaster
| General is not satisfied with the deficiency of
| $4,000 which the accounts OF the year show.
and thinks that the Bureau should be made
| self-sustaining by an increase of the charges.
The vexed question of rates OF payment for
railway postal service is referred to Congress
| for equitable settlement. The report concludes
with the promise to so conduct the affairs of
the Department " that the interests of the
public shall be paramount to those of any in
divil.sal, corporation or party"

The Richmond Enquirer, favors, i'll well
written article, the appointment OF a State &C.
ologist. Under ordinary circumstances. any
step taken looking to the development of the
material interests of the State. would be COM
mcndabfe. But we eau see ne good to result
from any such action, so long as the policy OF
the State tends to bar the cntr;lnc. of capital:
The partizan bgotry that controls the conserv-
alive party revolts the popular instincts of the
people of other States, and instead of coming
to Virginia, they seek other more liberal COM
muntics. The recent vote Oh the Amend
lnents to the Constitution is severely criticised
by intelligent gentlemen, with whom we have
eonycrsed, as indicating arech!ess disregard for
the organic law OF the State, and a willingness
to make any change the dominant party may
suggest. with III weighing the merits of the
proposition. Men will not entrnst their capital in
State where there is no stability Or certainty
in the laws, and where changes are consumma-
ted with so little regard to right anil wrong.
Amendments will be submitted to the presen t
legislature looking to radical tearing out Of
the very vitals OF the Constitution. Their
adoption will be the doom of the Public Free
Schools, rciegating the State to her old Bsur-
boun policy and throwing her back a half cen
fury. Idleness and ignorance will sit like 4
nightmare upon the vitas of Commonwealth,
paralyzing rhc energies OF the people, and i'll
terposins All insuperable barrier to her future
prosperity. 1t is useless for Virginia to atlver-
tisc her natural advantages, unless there be an
enlightened policy by which capital and enter
prise will be induced to utilze them.

A PENALTY FOR MARRIAGE.-The lnspec-
tor Gem. OF the Army says.in his annual report
that regulation is apuch needed lntlicting
some punishment on soldiers who marry with
out proper permission. Military posts are
sometimes evcrrun with the wives Of enlisted
men. 1t is frequently the ease That company
commanders do not Know the number of mar-
ried men in their companies. These women
manage to get slanties to live in, to have fuel,
to eat, and in case the company changes its sit
uation, to obtain transportation for themselves
and their effects and,in the majority OF cases,
the lumber for the construction of the 'shanties,
the fuel, rations transportation, &C., are made
in some way out Of the Government. 1t is well
known that it requires about as much traspor-
tation to move four laandresses as it does to
move whole company of men. In the opin-
ion Of the Inspector General laundresses can
be dispensed with in the army inst as well as
not. A man can be detailed on daily duty to
do the washing OF the company with the same
facility as laundress, and the results would
be equally satisfactory.
