Containing also conditions to be incorporated in the
contracts to the extent the Department may deem
proper.
1. Seven minutes are allowed to each intermediate
office, when not otherwise specified, for assorting the
mails; but on railroad and steamboat routes there is to
be no more delay than is sufficient for an exchange of
the mail pouches.
2. On railroad and steamboat lines, and other routes
where the rood9 of conveyance admits of it, the special
agents of the Post Office department, also post office
blanks, mail bogs, locks and keys, are to be conveyed
without extra charge.
3. On railroad and steamboat lines the route agents
of the department, also the British and Canada mails,
when offered, and the agents accompanying them-
are to be conveyed without charge, ana for the use of
the United States agents a commodious car, or apart
ment in the centre of the car, properly lighted, warm,
ed, and furnished and adapted to tne convenient sepa
ration and due security of the mails, is to be provided
by the contractor, under the direction of the depart
ment.
Railroad and steamboat companies are required to
take the mail from and deliver it unto the poet off: s

from all offices not more than eighty rods from a station
or landing. Proposals may be submitted by the com
panies for the performance of all other side service—
that is, for offices overfeighty* rods from a station or
landing.
There will be “way-bills” prepared by postmasters,
or other agents of the department, to aocompany the
mails conveyed on railroads and steamers, specifying
the number and destination of (he several bags. On
other principal routes, likewise, receipts will be required
and way-bills forwared , the latter to be examined by
the several postmasters, to insure regularity in the de
livery of mails.
4. No pay will be made for trips not performed; and
for each of such omissions not satisfactorily explained,
three times the pay of the trip may be deducted.—
For arrivals so far behind time as to break connexion
with depending mails, and not sufficiently excused, one-
fourth of the compensationlfor the trip is subject to for
feiture. For repeated delinquencies of the kind herein
specified, enlarged penalties, proportioned to the na
ture thereof ana the importance of the mail, may be
made.
5. For leaving behind or throwing off the mails, or
any portion of them, for the admission of passengers,
or for being concerted in setting up or running an ex
press conveying intelligence in advance of the mail, a
quarter’s pay may be deducted.
6. Fines will be imposed, unless the delinquency be
promptly and satisfactorily explained by certificates
of postmasters or the affidavits of other credible per
sons, for failing to arrive in contract time; for neglect
ing to take the mail from, or deliver it unto, a post
office ; for suffering it to be wet, injured, destroyed,
robbed, or lost; and for refusing, after demand, to
convey the mail as frequently as the contractor runs,
or is coDcerued iu running, a coach, car, or steamboat
on a route.
7. Tlie Postmaster General may annul the contract
for repeated failures to run agreeably to contract, for
violating the post office laws, or disobeying the instruc
tions oftlie department; for refusing to discharge a
carrier when required by the department to do so; for
running an express as aforesaid; or for transporting
persons or packages coaveying mailable matter out of
the mail.
8. The Postmaster General may order an increase
of service on a route by allowing therefor a pro rata
increase on the contract pay. He may change sched
ules of departures and arrivals in all cases, and par
ticularly to make them conform to connexions with
railroads, without increase of pay, provided the run
ning time be not abridged. He may also order an in
crease of speed, allowing, within the restrictions of the
law, a pro rata increase of pay for the additional stock
or carriers, if any. The contractor may, however -n
the cane of increase of speed, relinquish the contract,
by giving prompt notice to the department that he
prefers doing so to carrying the order into effect. The
Postmaster General may also discontinue or cnrtail
the service, in whole or in part, in order to place on
the route a greater degree of service, or whenever the
public interests, in his judgment, shall require such
discontinuance or curtailment for any other cause; he
allowing as a full indemnity to contractor one month’s
extra pay on the amount of service dispensed with,
and a pro rata compensation for the amount of service
retained and continued.
9. Payments will be made by collections from or
drafts on postmasters, or otherwise, after the expira
tion of each quarter—say iu May. August, November,
and February.
10. The distances are given according to the best
information; but no increased pay will be allowed
should they be greater than advertised, if the points
to be supplied are correctly stated. Bidders must in
form themselves on this point, and also in reference to
the weight of the mail, the condition of roads, hills,
streams, dtc., and all toll bridges, ferries, or obstruc
tions of any kind by which expense may be incurred.
No claim for additional pay, based on such grouud,
can be considered; nor for alleged mistakes or misap
prehension as to the degree of service; nor for bridges
destroyed, ferries discontinued, or other obstructions
increasing distance, occurring during the contract
term. Offices established after this advertisement is
issued, and also during the contract term, are to be
visited without extra pay, if the distance be not in
creased.
11. Bidders are cautioned to mail their proposals in
time to reach the department by the day and hour
named, (3 p. m. January 29, 1866,) for bids received
after that time will not |be considered in competition
with a bid of reasonable amount received in time.—
Neither can bids be considered which are without the
guarantee required by law aud a certificate of the
sufficiency of such gurantee.
12. Bidders should firet 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 ronte 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, the yearly pay, the name
and residence of the bidder, (that is, his usual post
office address,) and those of each member of a firm
where a company offers, should be distinctly stated.
15. Bidders are requested to use. as far as practica
ble, the printed proposals furnished by the departm
to write out in 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
receiving proposals.
Each bid must be guaranteed by two responsible
persons. The bid ana guarantee should be signed
plainly with the full name of each person.
The department reserves the right to reject any bid
which may be deemed extravagant, and also to disre
gard the bids of failing contractors and bidders.
16. The bid should be sealed, superscribed “Mail
Proposals, State 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 Tetters of any kind) in
their quarterly returns.
17. The contracts are to be executed and returned to
the department by or before the 1st day of July, 1866;
but the service must be begun on that day, or on the
mail day next after it, whether the contracts be exe
cuted or not.
Transfers of contracts, or of interest in contracts,
are forbidden by law, and consequently cannot be al
lowed. Bidders will therefore take notice that they
will be expected to perform 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 station, will, immediate
ly after the 30th of March next, report their exact dis
tance from the nearest station, and how they are oth
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 approved
March 3, 1845, provides that contracts for the trans
portation of the mail shall be let, “in every case, to
the lowest bidder tendering sufficient gnarantees 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, arc construed as providing for the entire
mail, however large, and whatever may be the mode
of conveyance necessary to insure its “celerity, cer
tainty, and security ” and hare the preference over all
others, and no others are considered.
20. A modification of a bid in any of its essential
terms Mkntamouut to a new bid, and cpnnet.be re-
ceived,Twas to interfer# with regular competitfon, af
ter the last h4ur set for receiving bids. Making a
new bid, witli guarantee and certificate, the only
way to modify a previous Md. # „
21. Postmasters are# befoardTul not t^jertify the
sufficiency Of gnrantors or sureties withOTt knowing
that thej’ are persons of sufficient responsibility; a
disregard of this instruction by postmasters is a vio
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 the forms above prescribed. The certificate of suf
ficiency must be signed by a postmaster, or by a judge
of a oourt of record. No other will be admitted. The
certificate must also have affixed to it a five-cent rev
enue stamp, cancelled, as required by law.
