The third assistant postmaster general.
the Hon. E. NJ. Barber, has just completed
his annual report. 1t shows that during
the last fiscal year there were issued to post
masters, for sale to the public, $50, 733, 900
adhesive postage stamps of the value of
Sl7, ,242; of plain stamped envelopes, about
60, OO0, 900, valued at 5 1897, 1852; of stamped en-
velopes bearing a return request, 81 1000, 900,
valued at 81. 7SS, 73s; of newspaper wrappers,
some 100000, valued at S22O, 900, and of
postal cards 81, 200, 900. The number of
stamps issued each year is shown to increase
at a uniform rate of about ten per cent. per
annum. In the 'sdead letter. division
there are 1901, 773 letters reported
as received representing an actual or nomi-
nal value of 3, 1851, 429, exclusive of jewelry,
etc. The third assistant earnestly recon-
mends the use by postmasters throughout
the country of indelible ink, for the
effeetual cancelling of postage stamps and
for post marking. Under this head
he estimates that the number of
washed" stamps used a second time
throughout the country is equal to FIVE per
cent. of the value of all the stamps sold, thus
causing an annual loss to the revenue of the
department of 81, 900, 900. On the first of
January the new plan devised by Gen. Bar

virtually the highest possible eulogy of the
opposition:
II the national government is to do anything
whatever to cheaper transportation, only the
republican party can be relied upon to do IL.
The democratic party has forsworn all such la
bors. Long ago they determined the onsutu-
ton would not permit the government to re-
move an obstruction from a harbor or a river.
IL is vain to suppose they will find now authority
to build canals or construct railways
