SELLING UNITED STATES MAIL BAGS.

For the special protection of mail bags and other
kind of government property Congress recently passed
law, the fourth section of which is as follows
"SEc A. And be sfnhey. enacted, That if any person
shall steal puroin embezzle any mail bags in use by
belonging to- the Post Office Department of the United
States other property in by belonging to- the
said Post Office Department SHALL for any ucre gain or
convenience appropriate any such property to his
any other than its proper for ucre or gain shall
carry away any such property to the hndrance and der-
ent of the public service of the United States the
offending counseors aiders and abettors, nowng of
and prvy any offence aioresad) shall, conviction
thereof if the value of such property shall exceed twenty
dollars be deemed guilty of felony and shall be imprisoned
for period exceeding three years if the value of
such property shall be less than twenty dollars shall be
imprisoned than year. be fined not less than
ten dollars more than hundred dollars for every
such offence"
For long tune the attention of the Postmaster General
has been directed the circumstance that by
or other very large number of canvas mail bags belong
ing had been diverted from their legit-
mate use and thus Withdrawn from the public service IL
will he seen from the following, which copy from New
York paper tbaan has been made in that city of
man who stands charged with having taken and sold
number of these bags
appears that the special agent of the Post Office De
pament this point has been watching the movements
certain in this city supposed TO have these mail
in their possession improperly and yesterday caused the

bag being plainly marked with the letters U. s. mail
1t is said that he got them from persons

authorities determined prosecute all who violate the
above law of Congress by having in their possession dis
