POST ROUTES At SEA.

Immense sums Of money are ex-
pended annua " in establishing new
most Offices and poet routes in every
part Of the country. This expendi-
turepf public funds is accepted with
ont / unfasorable comment by the
people, mainly because they perceive
that it facilitates the handling and
delivery OF the mails-for their own
convenience. This is perfectly sane
legislation. Why, then, is il not
equally sound policy to expend the
public funds for the construction and
maintenance OF post offices and post
routes at sea? Why did the Post
master General advise Congress to
grant the contracts for carrying the
foreign mails to English vessels in
stead of to American? Such
was the case, however, and
Congress acted promptly upor
his ad vice. Suppose now thai
Postmaster General Dickinson should
ask Congress to appropriate TIL
peoples money TO corporation o.

purpose OF controlling and running
our post Office system on land. Would
the people calmly look on and aver tina
Congress was acting wisely and for TIL
public good? The English peopl
