These forfeitures may be increased into high penalties of higher mount, according to the nature or frequency of the failure and the importance ol the mail. 6. Fines will be imposed, unless the delinquency besa tisfactorily explained in due time, for failing to take front, or tlelit cr at, a post office, the mail,or any part ol it; lor suffering it to be wet, injured, lost„ or destroyed; lor con veying n m a place or maimer that expos, s it to depre dation, loss, orinjury; for refusing after demand to con vey’a mail by any coach, rail road car, or steamboat, which j the contractor regularly runs on the route beyond the J specified number of tripsin the contract, and fur not ar- I riving at the time set; and for setting up or running an ! express to transmit commercial intelligence in advance j ! of the my il, a penally will be exacted equal to a quarter s ' 7, The Postmaster General may annul the contract for j repealed failures; for violating the post office laws; fur disobeving the instructions of the depaitmeut; for refus ing to discharge a carrier when requir. d by the deparl j merit; for assigning the contract without the consent of the Postmaster General, or for selli g up or runmi.g an 1 express us aforesaid. j 8. The Postmaster General may alter the contract, and alter the schedule, be allowing a pro rata increase of i compensation, w ithin the restrictions imposed by law, for the additional service required, or for the increased I speed, if the employment of additional stock or carriers is 1 rendered necessary; but the contractor may, in such i case, relinquish the contract, on timely notice, if hepre fers it to the change. The Postmaster General may an nul the contract or curtail the service, and pay when lie wishes to dispense with the serv ce in whole or in part, i or place a higher or different grade of service on the route, he allowing one month’s extra pay on the amount dispensed with. 9. The payments will be made through drafts on post offices or otherwise, after the expiration of each quarter, say in February, May, August, and November. 10. The distances are given accounting i» the best in formation; but no increased pay w ill be allowed, should r they prove to be greater than is advertised, il the places are correctly named, i ii. The Postmaster General is prohibited by law frrm J knowingly making a contract tor tbe trasportalion of the ; mail with any person who shall have entered into any i combination, or propose.! to enter into any combination, to prevent the making of any bid tor a mail contract by i any other person or pc sons, or who shall have made any agreement, or shall have given or performed, or promised to give or perform any consideration to do, or not to do j any thing whatever to induce any other person not to bid j for a mail contract. Particular attention is called to the I 28th section of the act of 1876, prohibiting condo nations j to prevent bidding. 12. A bid received after time, to wit: the 10th March j I next, at 9a. in., or w itliout the guaranty required by law, I „ r that combines several routes in one sum or compensa tion,cannot be considered in . ompetition with a regular ! proposal not adj aged to be extravagant. 13. A bidder may offer, w here the tr; importation called for in the advertisement is difficult or impralicable at cer tain seasons, to substitute an inferior mode ofeonveyance, or to intermit service a speeded number of days, weeks, or months. He may propo eto omit an office that is inac cessible, or is not on t e stage road, the railway, or ala steam boat landing, as the case may be; or he may offer i to substitute an interior mode of supply in such cases He may propose different days and hours of departure and arrival, provided no more runnin.’ time is asked, and it is obvious that no mail connexion or other public ac commodation is prejudiced. He may ask tor more rnn j nmg time to the trip,during a specified number of days, . at certain seasons ol peculiarly bad reads; but beyond | 1 these changes, apropos.il for serv ice different from the J I advertisement will prevent its being considered in com petition with a regular bid not set aside for extravagance; and where a hid contains :vny of the above alterations, their disadvantages will be estimated in comparing it j j with other proposals. | 14. There should be but one route bid for in a proposal. 15. The route, the service, the yearly pay, the bidder’s ! name and residence, and the name of each member of the ; firm, where a company offers, should be distinctly staled —also the mode (>*' conveyance, if a higher mode than on j horseback is intended. 16. The bid should be sent under seal, addressed tothe I First Assistant Postmaster General, with “Mail Proposals in the State of ,” written on the face of the letter ; 1 and should be despatched in time to be receded by or I belore the 10th March next, at 9 o’clock, a. in. 17. The contracts are to be executed by or before the 1 j Ist July next. 18’. Postmasters at offices situated upon or near rail roads, but more than eighty rods from a depot, will. Ini | mediately after the Ist April next, report that fact to the department,stating their exact distance from the railroad ( depot, and how Otherwise supplied w ith the mail, to ena ! btc the Postmaster General to direct the proper supply to he made from the railroad by mail messengers, from | and after the Ist July next. 19 Under the act of 3.1 March. 1845, the route is to lie let to llio 1 ow< i-l Id.ltier, tendering -ulficicnt gtin. antics for faithful performance, without reference to the mode \ of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for , tbe due celerity, certainty, and security of such trans portation. When the lowest bid proposes a mode of conveyance j that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain ly, security, and celerity of the mails, aside from|any' ac commodation for travel, it Will not be entitled to the ! route. 50. When the bid does not name a mode ofeonveyance, it will be. taken and understood to beforthe lowest mode of ] ; conveyance to wit: on horeback. When it proposes to j j carry according to the advertisement, and no mode of ■ conveyance is stated for the route in the advertisement, ■ it will be considered as offering only for horseback con- I veyance. 21. Since Hie passage of the act of March 3, 1845, a new description of hid has been received. It specifies no j mode of conveyance, but engages to carry the mail with I | certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the j law. These bid's are called, from the manner in which j they are designated on the books ofthe department, 1 shir bid.’' It has been decided, after mature consideration, , that a bid proposing a specific mode of conveyance of as hisrh a grade as two horse coach transportation is to be ! preferred to tlie star bid. The experience of the depa t inent enables it to lay down the following rules, viz: When the mail on the route is not so larce as to require i two horse cdaeli conveyance . a star bid. if the lowest, will he preferred to the specific hid. 22. When the mails are of such size and weight as to ; render it necessary or expedient, in reference to them i alone, to provide two-horse coach conveyance, the spe- | cific hid. though the highest will be preferred to the star i bid, to the extent of a moderate difference in the compen- I sation, in case the difference is not such ns to interfere ; with the policy of the new law, which looks to a redne- I tion in the cost of transportation. Exceptions, however, j may be allowed where the star bid if made by the present : owner ofthe stock on the route, and it is manifest that the j reasons for preferring tire specific bid do not exist in Ins J | case. 23. On routes of the hsgliest class, wnere fonr-horsc i coach or steamboat transportation is required by the size and importance of the mails, the preference for the spe cific bid will be, if necessary carried to a greater extent of difference,than on •he inferor coach routes, subject, however, to the exceptions above stated. 24. A modification of a bid, in any of its essential terms is tantamount to a new bid, arid cannot be received, so as i to interfere with regular competition, after the last hour 1 j set for receiving bids. <’.

J "AtTfTE have long regarded it as a most humiliating re j t T flection upon the South, that uo professedly nett t tral family journal has yet been sustained w thin heritor- ; tiers. We have tested the experiment whether such a paper could not be supported at the immediate South, j and though not wholly unsuccessful, our experience lias ; tanglit ns that the papers of this class published in the j large Northern cities, possess advantages over those of i j the country , which, in a measure, defy competition. But J I here the case is ilitferent. Baltimore, standing as >t does I on the (lontier of the Southern States, is yet near enough to the great commercial, literary and political emporium, j to be iin hided in the neighborhood of great American ! J cities, and to enjoy all the advantages, as a radiating point, which are possessed by either Philadelphia, Boston i or New York. A paper issued from Baltimore has all the | facilities for obtaining the latest literary intelligence, as ' well ns the urrent literature of the day, foreign and do ' mestic, that are enjoyed by the journals of the Northern cities. The Western Continent is as large, as cheap, and can he better adapted to the wants and tastes of South ern readers, than those Northern papers which now draw so large an amount of their patronage from the Southern public. Entertaining these views, we have looked with confi dence to the success of the Continent. Eight month’s experience has tended to strengthen thatconfideuce, and ! now we enter upon its publication with a firm conviction | that all that is necessary to secure for it a circulation | equal 10 that of its Northern cotemporaries, is a faithful , and energetic devotion of our best abilities to make it a useful and entertaining Family Journal. It is our de sign to make the Western Continent emphatically a Southern family paper, that may be read with interest and profit by every member of a Southern family.— j With this view, wc shall draw for our literary depart- j ment, from the best sources,such matter as will interest 1 and entertain the mind, without offending the la.-te or ■ corrupting tbe morals of our readers. Pains will be taken to give tbe latest intelligence on all subjects of interest to the general reader, to the. exclu sion of the vast amount of local matter, such as personal gossip, police reports, theatrical and other criticisms, i which make up so large a portion of the staple of some of the popular weeklies of the North. In a word, though : 1 we shall endeavor to make our paper interesting to all, ■ | our chief aim shall be to adapt it to the wants and tastes i of the people of the South and South-West, upon whom, j ' and these of our own city who are disposed to sustain , such a journal, we must mainly depend for support. R lying more upon the intrinsic merits of our paper, than on any promises we might make in a prospectus, we will close by appealing to the readers of the South and West for a share of that patronage which they so j liberally bestow upon the overgrown weeklies of the North. Terms—The Western Continent is printed on a mam moth sheet ot’3o by 44 inches, on fair type, and securely j mailed to subscribers, at Two Dollars per annum, in advance. copies will be sent for $5, or Seven copies for $ 10.

We propose also to give, in this edition, a complete 1 synoptical.; ...ntuary of the proceedings in both houses ! of C 'gress —thus rendering the “Weekly Union” a ! n> »sl valuable channel of information to all classes of our country. Hut, to remunerate ns for I his enterprise, an extensive subscription list is absolutely indispensa ble. We seize this opportunity to add that some delay has taken place in putting our paper to press, which has prevented its early delivery to our readers, and conse quently circumscribed it-' circulation. Wc shall make arrangements to reined}’ this defect, and to obviate this objection. After the present week we trust that no com plaint will be made upon tills subject. CONGRESSIONAL REGISTER. In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to pub lish, during the sessions of the national legislature, a ‘ ‘ Congressional Register ,” to be issued weekly, anil to com mi a full report of the daily proceedings and de bates of both houses. Indeed, the arrangements which wc have made with the very best corps of reporters will I enable us to give even morefull and extended reports than we have produced during tills session, superior as ! we claim them to be toany preceding ones. The Regis ter will be made up from the daily reports in the “Union,” carefully revised by an experienced editor.and will con stitute a complete and authentic record of the session. An appendix will be added, uniform with the Register, and to be sent gratuitously to subscribers, comprising a list of the acts passed during the session, with a synopsis | of their contents, and a reference, w hen necessary, to pre vious legislation. ’J bisw i 1 form the most complete his ; tory of the sessions of Congress,and will be furnished at the low price ofsEVENTY-FtvE CENTsfor the next session.
