h Occasioned by failures and deaths of contractors, and service having to be re-let at higher pay

i Route from Bridgeport to Decatur curtailed to commence at Guntersville, saving 104 miles, and service between Guntersville and Decatur increased to six times a week. Pay on route from Mobile to Selma increased.

j Service on 47 miles of route from Vicksburg to Meridian reduced to six times a week, and pay to $75 per mile. Route from York Station, Ala., to Meridian, Miss., 273 miles, put in operation.

k This is owing principally to the fact that the service re-advertised in January, 1868, to go into operation July 1, 1868, was let at a much lower rate of cost than had been previously given for it.

7 Steamship service from New York via Panama to San Francisco, Cal., transferred to New York section.
