General Post Office, December 10, 1818. Circular Contractors complain that in some places they are required to receive in payment of the drafts issued from this office, depreciated paper such as corporation, bridge and turnpike notes or tickets. Every contractor has a right to be paid in lawful money that is specie or its equivalent notes of the bank of the United
-States, ot the banks ot commercial cities.
nd of banks issued in the neighborhood
af the post-master paying, prov ided the
branches arc chartered ami pay specie on demand, are considered equivalent. No post-mister ought to receive paper in p rment of postages of other description. No other can be received as remittances to this o lire, no notes of any bank for a sum less ttlan one dollar. A modTication of the army, but not a reduction, is proposed in a bill before Congress. Too much improvement cannot be made with regard to the economy of our military establishment ; but it appears to us that it is already sufficiently small, and that its diminution would be detrimental to the present protection of our frontiers and garrisons, as well as oSr success in the early stages of a future war. which however earnestly to be deprecated, we cannot expect to shun.
