The
clerks,
&c.
in
the
country
offices
are
required
to
give
security
in
the
same
manner
to
the
postmasters
who
may
have
appointed
them.
After
the
preliminary
examinations
have
been
passed
successfully,
each
new
officer,
before
commencing
duty,
is
required
to
make
a
declaration
before
a
magistrate,
to
the
effect
that
he
will
not
open,
or
delay,
or
cause
or
suffer
to
be
delayed,
any
letter
or
packet
to
which
he
may
have
access.
He
is
then
put
on
probation
for
a
term
of
six
months,
after
which
period,
if
able
to
perform
all
the
duties
required
of
him,
he
receives
a
permanent
appointment.
Promotion
from
class
to
class
in
the
Post-Office
is
now,
as
a
rule,
regulated
by
seniority
of
service--a
much
more
satisfactory
arrangement
to
the
whole
body
of
officers
than
the
system
of
promotion
by
merit
which
it
has
just
superseded.
Heads
of
departments,
postmasters,
and
all
other
officers
employed
in
the
Post-Office,
are
prohibited
by
law,
under
heavy
penalties,
from
voting
or
interfering
in
elections
for
members
of
parliament.
No
officer
of
the
Post-Office
can
be
compelled
to
serve
as
mayor,
sheriff,
common
councilman,
or
in
any
public
office,
either
corporate
or
parochial;
nor
can
he
be
compelled
to
serve
as
a
juror
or
in
the
militia.
