The drawings ought not to exceed a quarto size, and if confined to octavo they would be still better, where it can be done conve- Diently and distinctly.
Many of the drawings in this office are executed in a very hand- some style, and do much credit to the gentlemen whose names are ascertained. If the artists would always sign them, with their directions, information might be given to the applicants for patents where to apply for drawings.
The papers must all be sent directed to the superintendent of he Patent Office, under cover to the secretary of state, which of course renders them free of postage; but if models be sent, their freight or carriage hither must be paid, and, before packing them, the name or names of the inventor or inventors should be written hereon, with the name of the machine, and the date ; for, some- imes, on receiving them, it is difficult to know to whom they ap- pertain.
The congress being impressed with a high sense of the value of he inventions of our citizens, have purchased an elegant and ex- ensive building, wherein preparations are made for the accommo- lation of a very numerous collection of the machines illustrative of he ingenuity displayed ; and this Museum of the Arts, it is pre- sumed, will stimulate the ingenious to send the models of their machines and inventions in a style that will rather honour than dis- credit themselves and our country.
Copy-rights of books, prints, charts, maps, &c. are secured " by Depositing, before publication, a printed copy of the title of such map, chart, book or books, in the clerk's office of the district court, where the author or proprietor shall reside, who will record the same ; and the author or proprietor shall within two months from the date of the record, cause a copy of the said record to be published in one or more of the newspapers printed in the United States, for the space of four weeks. And within six months of publishing the map, chart, book, or books, the author or proprietor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to the secretary of state, a copy of the same;" and, when deposited and entered in the patent office, a certificate will be returned of its being received. This will secure

the sole right of publication, for fourteen years, to the author o proprietor, if a citizen of the United States, or resident thereir " And if, at the expiration of the term, the author or authors, o proprietors, or any of them, be living and a citizen or citizens c these United States, or residents therein, the same exclusive righ shall be continued to him or them, his or their executors, adminis trators, or assigns, for the further term of fourteen years ; provided he or they shall cause the title thereof to be recorded and publish ed in the above manner, within six months before the expiration ( the first term of fourteen years aforesaid." In securing designs fc paper hangings and ornaments for rooms, &c. a specimen of eac should be deposited in the clerk's office where the inventor reside; who will describe, in writing, all the ornaments, and the colour used in each, so as to designate them, with the changes that ar proposed to be used in changing the ground and general tint. - Le each paper thus described, be numbered, 1, 2, 3, &c. and afte entering them in the clerk's office, and publishing them as direc ed, let a specimen of each be sent to the honourable the secretal of state, or through him to the person who directs the patent office with correspondent descriptions and numbers; and a certificate ( such a deposit will complete the requisitions of the law in securing the exclusive right to each original production of genius.

POST OFFICE ESTABLISHMENT.
The Post Office Establishment is under the direction of a Po Master General, whose office is called the General Post Office, an is kept at the seat of government.
Congress, by special act, establishes such post roads as appe: to them expedient. At this time there is a main post road whic extends 1,733 miles from Robbinstown, on the north-eastern e: tremity of the sea-coast of the United States, to St. Mary's, on tł south-eastern extremity ; and another main post road, which lead from the seat of government to New-Orleans, being a distance : 1,233 miles, and branches, or cross-roads, which keep up a commi nication between the capital of the United States, and the capita of the individual states, and also with every city or village of ar note. The aggregate of the extent of the several post roads about 51,600 miles.
The mail is carried by contracts made with the Post Maste General, who has divided the whole into nearly 400 routes ( contracts, and has stipulated for its conveyance as often and wit such expedition as he finds the public interest requires. It rui daily between the great and commercial towns; twice a wee to the capitals of each state, not commercial; and once a week ! other places. The usual rate of travelling on the cross-roads, 40 miles a day ; and from 60 to 120 miles in 24 hours, between il: great commercial towns.
Post Offices are established by the Post Master General, at suc places as he considers expedient.
There are stages for the conveyance of the mail and passenger from Belfast in Maine, to St. Mary's in Georgia, and on many of th cross-roads.
