2 2 Annuity Plan of Sale &c
of the two General Head Principal Offices: and the
Day. still continuing an account ennumeration
of the several letters found at each delivery, under
the two classes of Paid and Unpaid - together
with the sum of the money, reserved for its
former class is every day or ought to be transmitted every day to the
Head Office. In this new business there proposed
for the Penny Post, a paper or two after
having a very few words written on it will have to be
exchanged, or else removed and forwarded - and
a in addition made out. In each transaction
security utter ruin, insecurity or more
than would be consumed, than is consumed continually
in the purchase sale of a farthing's worth of thread
or a farthing candle. In the quantities of other people's money
concerned in the two cases — and therein in the
degrees of pecuniary responsibility required — lies
the only material difference. But, in perspective
as the communication between the under Office
and the superior Office — between the Accountant
Office and the Office of Account is ,
the degree of pecuniary trust reserved
is less and less considerable. This instance
of the wasting Penny Post Offices demonstrating
by experience the practicability of maintaining
communications in a day between the
inferior and superior Offices. But if letters frequently with money in them, paper or metallic or both,
can be sent six times in a day, money may
at any rate be sent once: and then the degree of promisory
trust reserved is ordered to the amount of the
summary occurring in the story of
the preserved Annuity Notes in the compass of a single
day.
