While the Roman postal service of
ancient days wm, of course, a crude
ayetom, yet the malls were forwarded
with considerable-speed. The system
of couriers on horseback was borrowed
from the Pentane, who, according to
Xenophon, had established it under
Cyrus. The Roman adaptation ot this
wm the best system of tranemlttlng
letters among the ancients.
All along the great Roman roads eta.
tlons were erected at distances of five
or six miles from one another. At each
ot these stations 40 horses were con
stantly maintained, and by the help of
relays it was easy to travel 100 miles
in a day.
These services were intended tor
the elate only, it being imperative to
secure the rapid Interchange of official
communications. In tho time of Julius
Caesar the system was so well organ
ized that ot two letters the great sol
dier wrote from Britain to Cicero at
Rome, the one reached its destination
in 26 and tha other in 28 days.
Private citizens were obliged to re
sort to the services ot slaves, and K
was not until the end of tho third cen
tury that there wm an establishment
of a postal system for private persons
by the Emperor Diocletian; but bow
long this system endured history does

maintenance was compulsory, and only
