Her Majesty's Mails

An
important
collateral
benefit
of
the
new
system
is
to
be
found
in
the
cessation
of
that
contraband
conveyance
which
once
prevailed
so
far
that
habitual
breach
of
the
postal
law
had
become
a
thing
of
course.
It
may
be
added,
that
the
organization
thus
so
greatly
improved
and
extended
for
postal
purposes
stands
available
for
other
objects,
and
passing
over
minor
matters,
has
already
been
applied
with
great
advantage
to
the
new
system
of
savings'
banks.
Lastly,
the
improvements
briefly
referred
to
above,
with
all
their
commercial,
educational,
and
social
benefits,
have
now
been
adopted,
in
greater
or
less
degree--and
that
through
the
mere
force
of
example--by
the
whole
civilized
world.
I
cannot
conclude
this
summary
without
gratefully
acknowledging
the
cordial
co-operation
and
zealous
aid
afforded
me
in
the
discharge
of
my
arduous
duties.
I
must
especially
refer
to
many
among
the
superior
officers
of
the
Department--men
whose
ability
would
do
credit
to
any
service,
and
whose
zeal
could
not
be
greater
if
their
object
were
private
instead
of
public
benefit.
