A NEW YORK HERALD correspondent
say of the postoffiee department The
government will inside of five years not
only have to double the size of the post
office department, but will have to crest

ment has grown more rapidly during

JUDGE McCUE, Solicitor of the
Treasury, has given an opinion to Sec
rotary Manning that shad or behring's
caught in Canadian waters by American
fshermen in boats of less than five
tons burden can be admitted to the

The Secretary Of the Treasury has
notified the custodians Of public build
ings throughout the country that the
appropriation for the payment of ass
istant custo3ians and janitors for the
current year is exhausted, and that
they must incur no expense of that
character for the remainder of the
month unless employees will take their
chances Of an appropriation for this
purpose by Con gress. The Secretary
adds: "With regard to the appropria-
tion for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1886. you are informed that owing to
the limited amount appropriated, a re-
duction in the expenditures of at least
80 per cent will BE- absolutely necessary.
