It has been proposed to butld a duplicate of the Precent buliding on the weet side of sth street. ‘The needs cf the department have turned the City Post Office cut of doors, and that is now temporarily established in a rented building, and plans have been submitted by architects y Owners of real estate for buildinga new City Post Oftice. ‘The simpler and better course may perhaps be to bulla @ new Post Office department some- ‘where more convenient to the Executive Man- slop, with which all Cabinet ministers must have £0 much and such constant intercourse. ‘The public grounds should not be encroached upon for Lew public departments, Dut on the €ast side of 15 bh strect and the west side of 17tn street are squares occupied by butldii of ‘sp.all value or unoccupied, and on these lands seems to be the natural location for any new executive department buildin; Build here a bew buliding for the Post Office department, censtanuy increasing in size as the population icreases, and In a ratio creater than that of increase of population. Give the present Gen- eral Post Office department to the City Post Ofce; root over its court yard with an tron roof, with Hghts in the north and south gables, 82a with vertical lights in the center of this 1oof, "This court yard would then be one vast bail, admirably sulted for the operation of a City Poet Ofice worthy of the capita The new Post Office department batidine could be constructed s0 as to afford ample scecmmodation fer the present and with capecity of enlargement in the future. ‘ibe Patent Office is uncomfortabie, and the Intesior Cepartment is looked upon by the great and irfluential Dedy of mechanics, engineers, Inventors ard patentecs as an intruder upon thetr proper quarters, which they need. Branches of the Interior ‘department itself are colonized in various outside build ‘That cepsriment must, in the nature of things, Onally go to the neighborhood of the Chief of the Executive, the Executive Mansion and Cftice. ‘The Judiciary department will need in time tbe whole of the land belonging to the Freed- men’s Bank, tn one part of whose building this department and the Court of Claims are now ubccmfortably established.
