Spartasb-vbo C. H., S. C.July 1, 1873. 1
Editor Phu:nix: In your issue of to?
day, there is nu article headed "The j
Post Utlice Department,'* which is liable
to represent me in an unfavorable light
to those who ure not familiar with the
operations of the PostOfilcc Department,
and I expect you to do me the justice ot
giving my explanation the same publicity
that you had given the charge.
According to the published "Laws
and Regulations of the Post Office De?
partment," the key boxes in nil post
offices not owned by the Government
are the private property of the postmas?
ter. He erects them at his own expense;
has as many or as few as he likes; charges
what he pleases for their lise; and re
tneives them entirely from the office
whenever it suits his convenience to do
so. Hut at offices of the second and
third classes, the postmaster is required
to turn over to the Government every
cent collected us box rent. He is re?
quired to give a receipt to the box-bolder |
for the amount collected; to enter the
same in a book, which is at all times
held subject to inspection, and at the
end of every quarter to send up to the
department a sworn statement of the
number of boxes rented, the amount re?
ceived for each, and the aggregated sum
of the whole. So that it must be appu-1
rent to every one who will give the sub?
ject a moment's attention, Unit it is im?
possible for a community to be "syste- j
matically tteuced" in the matter of rent?
ing post offiee key boxes. Every one
who rents a box does it with his tyes
open; lie knows the time for which he is
renting, the amount he is paying, and
takes a receipt for the same. If he |
thinks the price too extravagant, he is
not obliged to rent. A very large ma?
jority ot persons never have any key box
at all.
When I took charge of the Spartan
burg office, I found box rent seventy-five
cunts a quarter, and supposing that to
be customary, I allowed it to remain at
that price for over a year. Hut when 1
visited the Columbia office, I found the
boxes renting at two dollars per quarter,
and the courteous and efficient assistant,
Mr. Leaphart, laughed heartily when I
told him that I received only seventy
five cents a quarter for mine, and said
[ he would not bo bothered at all with
them for that. 1 wrote to several other
postmasters throughout the countrv,
and could not hear of a single ofiicp in
the United States where the rent of key
boxes was less than one dollar a quarter.
The small Yalo boxes, not one-half as
large as mine, placed in n window, with?
out any protection from the rain and
snow, at County offices, rented for one
dollar per quarter. The Columbia boxes,
far inferior te> mine, rented at two dollars
a quarter. I, therefore, felt it my im?
perative duty to increase my box rent to
one dollar and twenty-five cents a
quarter; and did so on tho first of last
January. I knew that it all went to the
Government -rthat it did not increase
my salary one cent; but felt bound,
under niy official oath, to sustain the
department by raising the revenue of
my office equal to the custom of the
country.
Some querulous fellows took offence,
not so much on account of the amount
involved, us because they had not been
consulted in the matter, and organized a
strike. By promising the people that
they would compel a reduction, they in?
duced several to sign a pledge not to
rent a box unless at the old rates; but the
most decent and respectable citizens
paid the increased rates without a mur?
mur, and the revenue of the boxes, in
despite of the strike, was greatly in?
creased over any previous quarter.
About the 20th of February I received
a communication from the Hon. J. W.
Marshall, First Assistant Postmaster
General, informing me that the rent of
boxes in my offiee was thereby fixed at
three dollars a year, or seventy-five cents
a (piarter, to commence on the first day
of April, 1875.
It hail never entered my mind that
any officer of the department either
claimed or desired the right of fixing
the box rent at my office. Had I thought
so, or had I supposed that any one could
have been induced to exercise that pre?
rogative, I would gladly have shifted tho
responsibility. JAY AN BRYANT,
Postmaster.

IT is with pain and regret that the sus?
pension of this Bank is announced.
Every effort that it was possible for the
officers to make to avoid this catastrophe
has been made in vain. The continual
withdrawal of deposits, and a constant
run on the Bank, occasioned by a vague
alnrm which has existed for several
weeks; together with the impossibility
of collecting the loans due to the Bank,
has rendered this suspension unavoida?
ble. To struggle further was impossible,
and could only work injustice to the
j creditors, to whom n full statement will
be made as soon as possible. Bespect
