The civilization of every conntry is determined by the amount of liberty and domestic happiness enjoyed by the inhabitants, and certainly one of the foremost promoters of the latter is the postal service, which enters 80 largely into the comfort and happiness of each member of society. Comparing the rude service of former days with the saiety, speed and convenience of the present, leads certainly to a contrast in favor of the wis- dom, which, among other tmprovements, has blessed the nation with a Department of Regis- tration. In most cases of depredation charged to tne Post Ofice shrewd special agents discover upon investigation that the thefts occur in busl- Deas Oltices, or by the clerks of business offices, who handie the matis, In the Registry Depart- ment thefts of this kind are almost un- known, and the checks apon the employés are of such a character that detection would almost immediately follow crime. Consuit- ing the British Postal Guide, a high authority, these lines occur:—*The registration of a packet makes its transmission much more secure, and the 108s of a registered packet 1s a very rare oc- currence.” And also the following excellent ad- yice, which will apply to persons using the post in this country as well as in Great Britain:—"Never send money or any other article of value through the post, except either by means of a money order or 1n @ registered letter, Any person who sends money or jewelry in an unregistered letter not only runs a risk of losing bis property, but exposes to temptation every one through whose hands hig letter passes, and may be the means ot ultimately bringiug sume clerk or letter carrier to moral run.” ‘The German government, however, gives ABSOLUTE SECURITY BY INSURANCE to senders of revistered letters, by the payment of @ small extra fee. If this insurance plan should be a opted by the United states there is no question but that it would yield au enormous revenue to the department. The Post Ofice, under the present system, gives a receipt ior the letter to the person seoding it at the which receipt bears bumber — corresponding on the letter, This letter, after going through the Varlous checkings in the sending ofiice, is for- Warded under most stringent saleguards to its destination to the postmaster at the place of de- livery; alter which @ dupilcate receipt is returned to the sender of the letter, a3 proof positive that his letter naa been Ssalely delivered, ‘Tne registered package envelope is not the least of the saieguards Lurown around the lewter, This 13 a large, scout envelope of a light color, with large red letters printed upon the back, as fol- luws:~“Registered Package,” and addressed to | the postmaster at ———. Tuere is a fap and , tongue on the back of this envelope, and over this is a large United States stamp and @ secure seal, | with waich it is impossible to tamper without de- tection.
