70
LONGWORTH'S
Post masters are not to forward pamphlets in the mail, where the latter is very large, or where it is carried with great expedition, or on horseback.
Letters and newspapers are delivered out of the office every day (except Sunday) at all hours from the rising to the setting of the sun ; and on Sunday from 9 to 10, and from 1 to 2.
Newspapers to be forwarded by the mail, should be enclosed in a cover and left open at one end, and the number of free papers, and of those for subscribers respectively, endorsed on each packet ; and all newspapers for each post-office, should be inclosed in one pack- age, provided they do not exceed twenty in number. If a letter or memorandum in writing. is contained in any newspaper, the person who deposits the same forfeits five dollars, and the package becomes liable to letter postage.
Letters to be sent by mail, should be addressed to the places of their destination in the clearest manner-they should always be di- rected to the nearest post office, if the person to whom addressed does not reside where there is an office ; and the name of the state ought not to be omitted ; letters are often mis-sent from their ambi- guous direction ; a punctual attention to this rule may prevent de- lays and miscarriages.
Letters to be forwarded by mail, ought to be delivered at the of- fice at or before the time of closing, to ensure their going by the mail of the day ; as before the departure of a mail, all letters composing it are to be rated and marked, accounts of them entered, and those accounts made out to be transmitted to the respective post-offices- and newspapers should be delivered at the office an hour at least pre- vious to the hour of closing the mail.
If an abatement of letter postage, be claimed, the letter must be opened, in presence of the post-master, or one of his assistants ; and if such letter should, instead of being overcharged. happen to be un- dercharged, the deficiency must be made up by the applicant.
All letters which are lodged to go by the British packets, should be distinguished by writing per packet-for there are places of the same name in the United States, similar to those in Europe.
Letters going out of the United States, must be paid for when lodged in the post-office.
Letter Carriers -- Aich. Davie, Joseph Shardelow, Elias Lynch, Archibald Forrester, Michael Noe, and Peter Noe.
