June (search for this): article 1
The increase in the rates of postage has been adopted in order to make the department self-sustain, instead of a tax of millions upon the country, like its predecessor at Washington. A design for postage stamps, about which there has been some anxiety, has been selected, and a contract partially made for a supply. The new stamp will be quite pretty — a tittle larger than the old, with an elegant steel engraving of Washington in the centre, and will be furnished the country early in June. The self-sacrificing Secretary of the Treasury, like another Cerberus, is guarding the money bags, which, to save from still less depiction, he has determined to prohibit the creation of assistant offices to those of First Auditor and Comptroller. In the United States Government there are six Auditors and two Comptrollers, 1st and 2d. Here there will be but one of each, and only one set of books to be kept by the Registers for the entire department, so as to prevent an increase of

From Montgomery.[Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Montgomery, Friday, May 17. Congress, it is believed, will adjourn on to-morrow — if not, certainly on some day of next week, to convene, when required by the public interests, in Richmond. Heretofore, the supervision of all matters connected with patents has been confided to the Department of Justice, presided over by the able and amiable Benjamin, but the great number of application, although confined under the law to citizens of this Confederacy, has shown to Congress the necessity for the prompt organization of a Bureau of Patents. And on yesterday, in public session, Mr. Brooke, chairman of the committee on the subject, reported a bill to establish a Patent Office, and to provide for the "granting and Issuance of patents for new and useful discoveries, improvements and designs" The bill contains a great number of sections, occupying 38 or 39 pages of Government foolscap printing.--A number of its features are ve

2d. Here there will be but one of each, and only one set of books to be kept by the Registers for the entire department, so as to prevent an increase of clerical force. This is the system recommended by Alexander Hamilton, and adopted by the Government in 1728, by the appointment of only one Auditor; but subsequently changed. As a precedent, however, of the early and purer days of our once mighty Republic, it has received the reverence and sedition of the conscientious Secretary. Those steamer Lady Davis, purchased by the Navy Department from the Governor of South Carolina, was to-day paid for by the Government. She cost $32,000. The people here are amazed and mortified at the course of the recent traitors in a portion of North western Virginia. It is sincerely hoped that the toad spotted wretch, Carlile, the leader in the conspiracy, will be held swiftly accountable for the cowardly treason he is committing against the sovereign Commonwealth of Virginia.
