PestofEce bloncy Orders .The system of transmitting money orders through malls, though It has been In • operation for several menthe, does not seem to be yet fully underr tood or appeeclatedby tbo public. Wheth er this le owing to the supposed security of the registration system heretofore adopted, when valuable letters were placed In malls, nr to the want of proper information in raferenCe to the postal money order system is difficult to telt. It is generally known that by the registration of a valuable letter the Department, In no way, be comes responsible for the contents, or even Its detention, yet that method is still re sented to, to a great extent. Tha only object in registering a letter is to obtain the certLdeste 'of the Fostmatteethat the letter was sent, but gtM the sender is responsible for the safe arrival of the letter at Its destination. The dlfildenee In the systems - Is very apparent. The instructions rafting to the money order system specify "that the money order system Is,J [tee dcd to pro mote public convenience and to tuners safety la the transmission of lunacy through the malls ; the mote by.which safety Is secured, consists In leach g one of the order the name of the payee, or patty fcrwbom the money is intended.
