We learn with pleasure that the Postmaster Genc-
raj has ordered the Offices of the ten travelling
Agents OF the Department and five deputies, to be
abolished, and by this movement alone some S25,-
600 will be saved This is very good step, pro
viaea (whichwe hope is the case) the Head of the
Department has devised and pu, in train the means
of detecting Mail Depredations, delinquencles, tSc
,eishous the aid of these Agents.
