CHEAP WORK.
A Man Who Travels Seven ThOus-
and Miles for One Cent.


There are many methods by which q
man makes money rapidly and the press
has taken delight in recording instances
OF fortunes, which, like Jonah's gourd,
sprung up in night. Not much has
been said. however, OF those men who
work much for little pay. Outside OF
newspaper men, who labor for glory,
simply, here is the account OF the cheap
est worker ever heard OF. 1t is from the
Enquirer:
The railroad and steamboat compa-
MES carrying the United States mails
are required to deliver to and take them
from postofflces located within quarter
OF mile from their stations, or landings,
a. the case may be; but when the Office
is over that distance the Government as
sumes the cost of transportation To
perform this work class of persons
known as mail messengers are employ
ed. Tnev are under the direction ot the
Second Assistant Postmaster General,
and are paid at various rates from one
cent to 50 500 each per annum. The
one cent ffi.er is, strange TO say, an
Ohio man. He carries the mail six times
a week between ST.. Clairsville and
Wheeling, distance of eleven and one
half miles each way. He, therefore, has
to travel 7,l76 miles before earning his
copper. Next to him in the low rates
OF compensation g man on Long Is
land, New York, who performs sarvice
q, often as required between Moriches
and the railroad staion, two miles each
way, for fifteen cents per aunum.
