FRAUDULENT Use OF THE MATS
An important bill, designed to prevent
the perversiOn of the mails to fraudulent
and Illegal purposes, was introduced in
the United States Senate last week. It
authorizes the Postmaster-Gener to
prevent the delivery of letters or pack
ages sent through the mail 10 ficticious
addresses whenever he shall be satisfied
that such ficticious address is adopted by
any persons with the intention to de-
ceive and defraud. The bill also pro-
yides that if amy persons shall attempt
by means of circulars or handbiils trans
mitted through the mails, to induce per-
sons TO invest money in any lottery, gift
enterprise OF other scheme Of chance,
which IS carried on with the intention 10
deceive and detTaud their correspondents,
and If any person shall, by the same
means, have deceived or defrauded their
he or they shall, on con-
viction, pay a fine and be imprisoned.
Accompanying this bill was g state
ment from "a solicitor of the Post Office
Department, who relates a number Of
instances Of viilainy and fraud COM
mitted by individuals who make use OF
the facilities of the mails for their
rOguery. The solicitor mentions the son
OF a postmaster in New Jersey who was
at one time, while assistant postmaster,
in the habit OF sending circulars TO per-
sons saying " have package TO your
which I viii transmit on the re-
ceipt of thirty cents to one dollar" He
received large amount Of money in re-
Sponse TO these circulars, and never re-
turned any equivalent he has now To-
Gated in a town on the Pennsylvania
line. He sends ont under his own name
large numbers Of circulars and receives
letters, each Of which contain from two
TO five dollars. at the rate of two OF three
hundred per day. AS the address is not
fictitious the letters cannot be stopped,
yet the fraud is committed and solely by
using the mails, and the situation of the
office enables the persons engaged IN the
fraud 20 escape the operation OF the State
laws of New Jersey by crossing the river
into Pennsylvania. Other offices, situ-
lted similarly, are also used by this class

From the Catslliu IN. " Recorder, Feb. 70.
gan aErEVu

4 mysterious case of death, under pc
euliarly suspicious circumstances, re-
Gently occurred at Cairo, this county, the
facts in connection with which, given
below, were developed at the Coroner s
inquest held by DR.. 4. R. Mackey last
Wednesday. It appears that about jan
uary first, DR.. Noble, Of Cairo, received
a letter from a woman in Williamsburg,
asking 10 be taken into his family 70 be
treated for private disease. lie procured
quarters for her in the family Of Mrs.
Vail. and wrote her 10 that effect. On
the 18th of January she arrived at Cairo
and took quarters prepared for her, and
remainedunder the exclusive professional
care Of DR.. Noble until her death, which
occurred Monday, February j.. We be-
leve. however, that DIR. King was called
in Just previous 10 her death, which was
undoubtedly caused by abortion; but
whether of recent OF remote occurrence
is as yet undetermined. as the inquest
was adjourned TO February 28.
A post mortem examination was made
by Drs. King, Noble, and HOlgate, after
which the body was brought 10 Catszill
and deposited i'm the vault
No certain clue can be obtained of her
indentity. She was a fine looking wo-
man, about twenty-eight or thirty years
Of age, rather above medium size, fair
compleXion, brown hair and had natural
teeth. She wore a merino dress, cinna-
mon color, which had evidently been re-
made: basquine, light color, dark but
tons, and around her neck o sash with
red center and dark ends. She also had
a waterproof cloak and o hat.
She told that her husband was a tray
cling agent for a hardware establish
ment that his name is Wing, and that
she had three children.
While at Cairo she received two let
ters one directed TO Z" Mrs. A. r. King
