The Work of the state OhlcoFs.

SomeideA Of the present dimentions
OF the Alliance work IN the State may
be gained from the fact that the State
president asks us TO make the an
nouncement that he is unable TO an
swer much Of the correspondence no
receives. He desires the brothers to
know that it is for want Of time and
not for want OF disposition that an
swers to letters are delayed.
Bro French, State Secretary, writes
that he is working fifteen hours per
day and his wife is working twelve
hours, and they are still behind with
their correspondence.
He had 10 outfits to send out when
he received tho last lot OF supplies,
and tho agent at Burton declines to
receive any more until after the holi-
days This agent must be a man OF
extraordinary calibre if his Office is
blocked with ITO outfits for subordi-
nate Alliances so Os to be unable to
receive more for twenty days. Never
tholess such seem to be the facts. It
would undoubtedly DO to the interest
Of the Company to place him on the
retired list il business is any object.
The Office Of the State Secretary
will undoubtedly be compelled to re-
move to some point where business
facilities are ample for its accomoda-
ton.
