Long Time in Postoffice Service.

William H. James has been a carrier in the employ of ahe postoffice in Rochester since May 7, 1865, and is the only survivor of the nine original carriers there. A few years ago he was sent to England to investigate postal methods in the leading cities of that country. When he returned he reported that the United States had nothing to learn from them; its own methods were far in advance of British postal ways.
