Bidders must in form themselres on this point, and also in reference t< the weight of the mail, the condition of ro.ads, hills streams, &.C., und all toll bridges, ferries, or obstruc tions of any kind by which expense may he incurred No claim for additional pay, based on such ground can be considered ; nor for alleged mistakes or misap prehension as to the degree of service; nor for bridge; destroyed, ferries discontinued, or other obstruction increasing distance, occurring during the contrac term. Ofiices established after this advertisement issued, nnd also during the contract term, are to be visited without extra pay, if the distance be not in creased. . 11. Bidders are c'an'ioned to mail their proposals in time to reach the department by the day and hour named, (3 p. m. January 29, 1866,) forbids recei-ed after that time wilt not -be considered in competition with a bid of reasonable amount received in time.— Neither can bids be considered which are without th guarantee required by law and a certificate of tin sufficiency of such gnrantee. 12. Bidders should first propose for service strictly according to the advertisement, and then if they desire separately for different service ; and if the regular bid be the lowest offered for the advertised service, the other propositions may be considered.. 13. There should be but one route bid for in a propo sal. Consolidated or combination bids (“proposing one sum for two or more routes ’) are forbidden by law and cannot be considered 14. The route, the service, file yearly pay, the name id residence of the bidder, (that is, his* usual post and office address and those of each member of a where a company offers, shoilld be distinctly stated. 15. Bidders are requested to use. as far as practica hie, the printed proposals furnished by the department, to write out iu full the sum of their bids, and to retain copies of them. Altered bids .should not be submitted; nor should bids once submitted be withdrawn. No withdrawal of a bidder or guarantor will be allowed unless the with drawal is dated and received before the last day for ?eeiving proposals. Each bid must be guaranteed by two responsible id guarantee should be sinned persons. The bid and guarantee should be signed plainlv with the full name of each person. ~ ‘ “ ' rut The department reserves the right to reject any bid which muy be deemed extravagant, and also to disre gard the bids of failing contractors and bidders. 16. The bid should be sealed, snperi-scribed “Mail Proposals, Smte of Georgia,” -addressed “Second Assistant Postmaster General, Contract office,” and sent, by mail, not by or to an agent; and postmasters will not enclose proposals (or letters of any kind) iu their quarterly returns. 17. The Contracts are to be executed and returned to the department by or before the ls< day of July, 1866 hut the service must be begun on that day, or on the mail day next after it, whethet the contracts be exe cuted or not. Transfers of contracts, or of interest in contracts, are forbidden by law, and consequently cannot be al take notice that they lowed. Bidders will therefore will be expected to perforin the service accepted to them through the whole term of the contract. 18. Postmasters at offices on or near railroads, but more than eighty rods from a Ration, will, immediate lv alter the 30th of Mareli next, report their exact die id how they are oth twice from the nvareSt station, air erwise supplied with the mail, to enable the Postmaster General to direct a mail-messenger supply from the 1st of July next. 19. Section eighteen of an act of Congress unproved March 3, 1845, provides that contracts for the trans portation of the mail shall be let, “hi every case, lo the lowest bidder tendering sufficient guarantees for faithful performance, without other reference to the mode of such transportation than may be necessary to provide for the due celerity, certainty, and security of such transportation.”. Under this law, bids that pro pose to transport the mails with “celerity, certainty and security," haring been decided to be the only legal bids, are construed as providing for the entire mail, however large, and whatever may be the mode of conveyance necessary to insure its "•celerity, rer tainty, and security ” and hare the preference over all red. others, and no others are consider 20. A modification of a bid in any of its essential term's is tantamount to a new bid, and cannot be re ceived, so ns to interfere with regular competition, af ter the last hour set for receiving bids. Making n new bid, with guarantee and certificate, is the only way to modify a previous bid. 21. Postmasters nre to be careful not to certify the sufficiency of gurantors or sureties ■without knowing that they are persons of sufficient responsibility; a disregard of this instruction by postmasters is u lation of their oath of office, subjecting them to im mediate removal. All bidders, guarantors, and sure ties aredistinctly notified that on a failure to enter in to or perform the contracts for the service proposed for in the accepted bids, their legal liabilities will be enforced against them. 22. Present contractors, and persons known at the department, must, equally With others, procure guar antors and certificates of their sufficiency substantially in t he forms above prescribed. The certificate of suf ficiency must be signed by a postmaster, or by a judge of a court of record. No other will be admitted.' The certificate must also have affixed to it a five-cent rev enue' stawqi, cancelled, nB required by law. . . YV.
