Excerpt from Guide to the National Executive Offices: And the Capitol of the United States

The author of this little work has been induced to undertake it from its acknowledged utility. Every one having business with the Public Offices, or Capitol, whether stranger or resident, is sensible of the difficulty of locating the different bureaus in their buildings, and more particularly the officers and clerks attached to those bureaus. The nature of the information contained in this work will tend to remove this difficulty, and afford to all the means of identifying both the building and the room occupied by every officer doing business therein.

In connection with a brief description of each executive building, is a diagram plan of the same, with each room numbered, the numbers applying to each floor, consecutively. The officers and clerks of each department being alphabetically arranged, and following in the order of the departments to which they belong, will be easily found, and opposite to their name, in the margin, is the number of the room in the diagram, on first, second, or third floor, as the case may be.
