THE GOVERNMENT PRINTING.

A DEFENSE OF THE CHARGES OF THE PUBLIC PRINTER
TO me Edifor Of The Tribune.
SIR. Believing that you wish to do justice to
all men, and you have given space to the attack
on the Congressional Printer trust you VIII find room
for the following:
1t ia stated the cost Of public printing for the year
ended the 3Oth OF September last 100000 than
for the twelve months ended Sept 80 1868, when Mr.
Clapps predecessor was Public Printer As the figures
purport to come from the published reports OF the two
Offices them to be correctly stated have not
Mr. Defreess report at hand to satisfy myself 1t is
also stated that the work is actually less than 1t
was five years ago. This is wiiu misstatemeDt, and
should be corrected. Since Mr.. Defreess last official
report was made in 1865 the printing for the Patent
Office, Custom-hOuses, and The Congressional Record
have been sent the Government Office. Before that
time this printing done by contract, at cost OF not
less than s5OOO0 and probably nearly s10OOOOO year
The old cost Cusomhouse work never be known,
as each custom-house charged up its own in tho
stationery contingent account Beside this legitimate
increase, the establishment worked TO its fullest
capacity nearly up the 1st of July last year, as men,
bers Congress and heads of departments were alike
xlOus to get their documents before the franklng
privilege out Finally. the work has been charged
against Congress and the departments on he DOCKS OF
the Congressional Printer, at the rates established by
Mr.. Defrees 10 years or more ago, ana II greater
amount mas been expended there has been more work
The statement thatithe charges ten times great
as would be made by private establishment are pre-
PostOfce Department $3.50 at the Government Office,
and which private establishment offered TO do for s5,
was "a pamphlet Of 80 pages OF rule and figure WORK,
1000 ems of wOprce matter 10 the page, which would
have cost in New.York Just 500 for composition alone,
and more than that here. The who would offer 10
do such q lob for SIS either fool or a swindler
do not wish say there has been no extravagance
I'm the matter OF public printing We all know better
Immense numbers of absolutely worthless books are
printed every year. Will instance the 10 volumes Of
Ku-Klux Reports which suppose living
read All that worth preserving could easily have
been condensed into volume. The responsibility for
TINS extravaganza, however belongs Congress- which
orders the work, and not TO the Congressional Printer
who is bound 70 print on requisiuOn from proper
authority. The present raid on the Congressional
Printer in the interest Of the Washington Ring which
is too short OF funds be able suDsdze the press OF
the District and the hope to break down the Govern
ment Printing Office and farm out the printing among
the faithful, formerly done in Cornelius WendePs
time (ide Covode Investigation, 1857 -

MONMOUTH PARK ENTRIES.

During the coming season the management
OF the race meetings OF the Monmouth Park Association
will be in the hands of the American Jockey Club who
at the solicitation OF the stockholders OF the former
body have consented the control and drec-
ton Of affairs. This arrangement has given general
satisfaction among turfen and owners OF horses
and will do away with the rivalry which has existed
between Monmouth Park and Saratoga Associations.
The services OF William Conner Of New-Orleans have
satisfaction which he gave at the Jerome Park meeting
last Fall

have been filed remarkably we'll The Hopeful Stakes
