Relnrt of the Post master General.
. We commence, o-day, the publication.of
the Report of the . Post Master General, and
will conclude it to-tuorrow. The duties of
the:Read of this . : Department aretnuch
more arduoUs and, versified, than 'those (A
tha gentleman who control the other depart•
meats of the administration. While, in
time of peace, the business the of Secretaries
of War, and of the Navy, is compaOtively
circumscribed, .and almost entirely with.
drawn from the great mass of the people,
the operations of the Post Office Depart•
ment, are felt every whete, and at all tines;
they come to every Man's door, and affect
every man's business or comfort mo i re, or
less. •It will easily be seen, that to control
the vast business of the Post Office Depart
ment, in a manner at once satisfactory to
the people, and pri,fitable t•I the Govern—
ment. talents of the first.order, great mental
resources, tireless industry, and unfailing
energy, arc indispensable. The prosper—
ous condition of the Department, is the best
evidence which corld be ad !need tiiishow
that Mr Wickliffe and his Assistants possess
these esentiat qualities.
During the past year the .Postmaster
General sass that the receipts of the DJ—
prtment have been equal to its current
Pxpettses, and that it will, in future, be a.
ble to sustain itself. This-0 certainly a
gratifying fact, and will be eminently useful
as an example in al coming time. It has
now been demonstrated by Messrs. Ken Jail
and Wickliffe, that the Post Office Depart•
meat can be carried on without expense to
The National Treasury, and hereafter the
peoole will require their agents in that De
prtnaent to take this fact as the basis of
their operations, and to govern their ex
penditures accordingly. In these' times,
whet: economy and retrenchment :are- the
order of the day, in both public and ',private
affairs, this becomes, of course, the leading
feature of, the Report. We shall , nut es
pecially notice any ether, but commend
the whole: Report to the careful perusal 'of
our readers,with the assurance that they cat:
not fail lo'be pleased with the concise and
well expressed views, and the sensible
suggestions - pi' the Post Master General.

directions in relation to them, with as much de

150 yards from the road, when, causing- him to
stand upon a horse, the rope was wrapped around

bade "Good bye to all," the horse was taken from
under him, and while his body hung dangling be
