NOTES.
l. The Postmaster General reserves the right
to expedite the mails, and to alter the time OF their
arrival and departure, at any time during the
continuance of the contract, by giving an dde-
quate compensation, never exceeding pro rata
allowance, for any extra expense which such al
teration may require.
2. Seven minutes shall be allowed for opening
and closing the mails at each office, where no
particular time shall be specified, but the Post
master General reserves to himself the right OF
extending the time.
3. For every ten minutes delay in arriving at
any point after the time prescribed in any con-
tract, the contractor shall forfeit five dollars. If
the delay shall continue beyond the time for the
departure of any pending mail, the forfeiture shall
be equal to twice the amount allowed for carrying
the mail one trip. If it be made to appear that
the delay was occasioned by unavoidable acct
dent, of which the Postmaster General shall be
the Judge, the forfeiture may be reduced to the
amount of pay for a trip; but in no case can that
amount be RENTED. The forfeitures are other
wise unconditional, and will in all cases be en-
forced.
A. Persons who make proposals will state their
prices by the year; payments to be made quar-
terly; in the months of May, August, November,
and February, one month after the expiration OF
each quarter.
