roSTN. MATTERS.
The rrport of the postmaster general OK.
hibits continued growth and "A hirh state
of efficiency of the postal service. The on
crations of no department of the rovcr,,.
ment, pcrhaps represent with preaicrr>
actness the increase in pnpulatjon and hu,
mess of the country. In 1850, postal re-
GENTS were SS,OO6OW In 1850. the r.,
ccipts we're S:S,,3lj.47y All iuhahitan,s
of the country are directly and personally
interested in having proper mail facilities
and naturally watch the postotlice very
closely. This careful oversight ON the part
of the pcoplc has proved n constant stimu
lus to Improvement. During the past wear
there was "A increase of 2l3i pnStnfiicps and
the mail routes were extended o1I., miles
making an additional annual tran.po,ta
tion of 10 SO4 1911 miles Tn, revenues az
the postal service for the cns,,inr wear are
estimated mt ,SS41l.4 and ryncnIitures
ut $i2,414,9'2, leaving IA deficiency To be
| appropriated out of the treasury of $3.50
go.
The universal postal union has received
the accession of almost all the countries
and colonies of the world, maintaining an
organized postal service, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that all other countries and
colonies now outside of the union will soon
unite herewith, thus realizing the grand
idea and aim of the founders of the union
of forming for the purpose of International
mail communication u single postal terri
tory embracing the world with complete
uniformity of postal charges and condi
| tons of international exchange for all de
scrptions of correspondence. To enable
the United States to do its full share in this
great work additional legislation is asked
by the postmaster general, to whose recon-
mcndation especial attention is called. The
suggestion OF the postmaster general that it
! would he wise to encourage by appropriate
legislation the establishment of American
lines of steamers by our own citizens to
