port OF Postmaster General, this year, it
will be shown that the surplus OF the
Postoilice Department over its sexpcnditures
will be aboutSl, 100000. This report does
not include the amount OF money paid the
pacilic roads, for whose bonds the Govern
ment is endorser. These roads arc i'll

the amount that is annually paid them
for carrying the mails is simply
taken to the Taeasury Department and
credited TO these roads. Under this method
no warrant is issued by the rostof-
flee Department, and the amount goes upon
the books Of the Sixth Auditor, who has
charge OF the accounts OF the Postoilice
Department. As consequence, while the
postolllcc appropriation is charged with
this sum, amounting to overSl 900, 900, the
report does not show it, us the Postmaster
General can only take the figures Of the
