It is no small matter to pay such an army, and the cashier is often very much bothered before he gets through. The money, which amounts to 350, 00001' Soo. Ooo for each pay day, is counted out in the cash-room of the Treasury Department in gold, silver, and bank- notes, and given into the charge of the cashier, who locks the box carefully and places the key in his 206 NOTES ON WASHINGTON. pocket. Four strong men then carry it out to the wagon of the Printing Office, and, with the cashier, jump ...in and are driven rapidly to their destination. The cashier never takes his eagle eye from the cash-box until it is safely landed in his office'. The employes come in twenty-five at a time, in line just as their names appear on the pay-rolls. The name is called by a check clerk at the first window and the amount due. The cashier stands near a second window, counts out the money and passes it to his assistant, who checks the duplicate roll, sees that the amount is correct, and passes it over the counter to the employe, who is identified by the foreman or some assistant.
