Iteport of the Postmaster General.
This document occupies upwards of five • col.;
limns of the Union, and gives an interesting" ac—
count of everything connected with the host Once
affairs. The exposition given of the' new law is,
upon the whole, eminently gratifying - to the friends
and•advocates of cheap postage. -It appears that,
during the last' fiscal year, - ending on the 30th of
June list, the public mails were transported over
an aggregate distance of 38,887,899 miles, at an
expense of $2,406„849. The aggregate extent of
the routes on that day was 153,818 miles, and
since Am day 8239 miles of new routes have been
put into operation. The rexenues of the elepart 7
ment during the last fiscal year, (inclucling" the a
mount appropriated to pay the government post
age,) having increased more than 13 per cent,
upon the revenues of the last preceding year, •
mounted to $3,943,893. The expenditures for the
same time were s 4 ;979,s7o—being only $33,677 ,
More than - the revenues. The estimates of reven
ues and. expenditums of the department, for the'
present fiscal ,year, shows the considerable excess •
of means over expenditures of $213,951.
The number of mail contractors in the service,l
during the last year, was 3.569; of route agents,
local agents, mail messengers connected with the
mail service on railroads and steamboats,' are
180.
The number of post offices in the United States
on the Ist of July last, was 15,140, showing an
increase since the' Ist of July, 1845, of 903.
The number established during the year was 829,
and 284 discortinued.
The changes of postmasters, during the year
were 3,450. From the best estimates which can
be made/ the numbeiiilletters and paperspassing
through the U S. mail during the last year, may
be stated as follows: -
Paid.and unpaid single rates of 6 cents 36,152,556
•51 •' " " 10 " 12,861,032
Ship and steamboat letters- forwarded
in the mails from foreign countries,
two gents added to the' regular post
: age....
MEE=
Dropped letters
Printed circular letters
62,173,480
The free letters sent 'by persons entitled to the
franking vrivilege, and those sent free to the army,,
cannot be ascertained with any degree of accuracy,
but it is believed would not fall short 0(4,000,000.
The newspapers passing through the mails an
nually are estimated at 55,000,000; pamphlets and
magazines at 200,000. The number of transient
newspapers, paying 3 cents each, cannot be aster
liaised with any accuracy, as the postage is return
•ed with that on letters passing through offices, and
returned to the department, as nearly as can be as
certained, number annually about 1,800,600; which,
calculated at an intermediate point between the
two rates of postage would make an annual loss
to the department of $135,000. The newspapers,
circulars, advertisements, and other printed sheets
sent to the offices, and not taken out nor returned
to the department, will not probably fall short of
the number of dead letters returned.
The great labor required of postmasters, in the
reception and distribution of letters and newspapers,
in addition to the reasons before assigned, would
make it just and proper that the former mode of
computing their cot:minions should be restored 1
The probable increase of receipts for postage,
during the present year is estimated at 6 per cent
The following modifications of the present Post
Office law, are recommended
Ist. The prevention - of private expresses. 2
Prohibit sending over mail routes sealed letters
•in relation to the cargo.' 3d. Single letters to
weigh a quarter or third of an ounce instead of a
half, (except, when written on a le sheet of
paper.) and prepaid, or double postage to be required
when not prepaid. 4th. Postage on newspapers . .
be cloargeda ccording to-weight.
sth. The payment of postage, or double post
age, on all letters passing through the mails for
delivery within the United States, and prepayment
on letters designed for toteign countries not hay
ing postal arrangements with the United States.
and on all printed matter.
6th. The abolition or modification of the frank
ing privilege, so as to cover only official corres
pondence, fur which payment lids been made to
the department by the twelfth section of the act
of 1847.
These modifications will probably produce an.
nually a large surplus to be devoted to the exten
*ion of the mail service. Of the 15,146 post mas
ters in the toiled States, whose accounts have to
be rendered and bettied quarterly, diem were only
135,,,delinquent in s making theirreturns at the close
of the last year, and most of these cases arose from
an inability to supply some of the offices with
rnails, for the transportation of which contracts
could not-be obtained on the new routes.
In other cases, postmasters had just entered upon
the duties of their offices; while some of the offices
were vacant from inability to procure persons to
discharge the duties. '
The returns of dead letters are believed to ex
ceed 450,000 each quart( r.
In the year ending the 40th ofJune, 1843. there
were sent out from the department 2,340 dead let.
ters, containing $17.822. 01.1 his umber 2,021
were received ly the owners,, containing $16,169;
"and 319 -were returned to the department, con
taining $1,653 49, of is hich $254 was worthless.
In the year coding the 30th June, 1847, there
were sent out 2,782 dead lettere, containing $21,-
055. Of these, 2,365 were delivered to tiie owners,
containing $19,447; and 417 retuin-d, containing
$1,580 93. Of this sum $147 was worthless.'
Dining the two years, $1,911 51 v,ese added.
from this source, to the funds of the department.
Since the re-organization of the department in
1836, them bas been added to its funds, from the
dead letter office, the sum of $10,329 28.
The repiart here enters upon a statement of the
difficulty with railroad and steamboat companies
in relation to their compensation for carrying the
Mail.—Of the route from Wsslington to Rich
mond, the report says;
The compensation offered for steamboat service
from this to Aquia creek is at a much higher rate
'than iepaid upon any other steamboat route in the
United States, except the sea route between Char.
Heston and Wilmington, which is paid at the same
rate offered this company. From Louisville to
Cincinnati, 140 miler, the service is rendered daily
in steamboats at $3,800; from New York to Ttoy,
150 miles, daily in steamboats, durine the season
.of navigation, (about nine months . ) for the slim
of. $13,750; from New York to Stonington, 125
miles, the mail is taken daily in steamboats for
the sum of for s9,ooo—and so on other routes ;
-whilst on this route of 54} miles long, they de
mand $12,752, and on the rail road $10,500. Ar
rangements have been since completed for the
transportation of the Great Southern mail from.
Baltimore down the bay; and though the service
may pot-be so good as that over the railroad, yet
there wilt be' no sericuri inconvenience experienced
except in Virginia, near this route, where it will
be impossible to give the same expedition to the
mails by any other conveyance. To obviate this
difficulty as. far as practicable, I offered the compa
ny one hundred dollars per mile for taking the lo
cal mails to Richmond, which is the highest price
authorized by the act of 1845 to be paid to rail
roads for second class service. For taking thelo
carinair, no higher classification of that or any
' other route could be made. This offer was like
wtse refused, and the local mail will! be hereafter
eat by stages from this to Richmond; and this
rvice, and the transportation of the great mail
own the bay, will continue until the Ist of
uly, 1851, unless Congress shall otherwise or.
r:
: :"
• The report concludes by invoking the attentien
f Congress to the law fixing the rates of payment
or the various grades of transportation, and the
-xisting position and powers of the department in
espect to foreign and international postal arrange
. ants. 'The necessity of further legislation upon
.oth these subjects, in view of existing facts, isde
°nitrated in the report with so much force and
bility that Congress will doubtless give their fa
orable attention to its' suggestions.

Cure your Cold and .Citugh before the Lungs are
Dire= d and fall a prey& Consumption.—lt is now
universally acknowledged that DR. DUNCAN'S
EXPECTORANT is the only certaid Medicine that
will couipletely eradicate'lhe first symptoms of this
Disease from the system. , This medicine commen
ces at the very root;.cluses the Secretial Matter and
Phlegm to loose its }widow]: be discharged through
the Expectorant organs, tlins giving immediate ease
to the Cough, imparting eirerigth to the Constitution,
and finally restoring perfect health. Those who are
afflicted with the first seed! of Consumption, such
as a cold; cough, sorenesalof the throat, pain in the,
breast and side, affections of Bronchia, (all of which
will soon lead to a speedy Consumption if not check
ed,) should at once produce Dr. Duncan's Expecto
rant Remedy, whereby, life may be prolonged, c and
probably saved.

read it.
g , Vaughn's Vegetable 4ithentriptic Miztuse.—We
are not accustomed to take particular notice of the
various medicines of the 'day, advertised in our col

ray and character of the 'testimonials in proof of

impels us to depart from our nasal practice, and to
admit that we have never known so extensive suc
cess to attend any previons'y advertised medicine,
within so short a space c4: 4 tinie. The genuineness 1
of the certificates is undoubted—most of those nam
ed are'our own fellow cittsens, one of whom has for
many years been conoek,thd with this paper, and
many of them favorably finown to us—some of them
has taken the pains to cal) bnd corroborate the state.
ments published, and WO ertainly think the medi
cine has established for - itself an escellent reputa

and we will merely add jerinn our own knoWledge
of the Commercial Advert)ser, five hundred dollars
would not have produced such an article, from the
pen of the editor or that Journal, had he not the
proof ofwhat he has stated; no! ten times that sum
would be no inducement fo this old and in fl uential
Print to foist upon the pu llic a worthless article.
