THE UNITED STATES COURT.

Two cases growing out Of the misuse
of the local postoffice were dealt with
by the United States court at Burlington
last week. One was that of Salisbury
man who had been indicted for sending
unavailable matter through the office.
He pleaded guilty; but it appearing from
aflidavits signed by prominent residents
of Middleburv and vicinity that he had
hitherto borne first-class character, he
was let off with the minimum penalty,
fine of 500 without costs. His perfor-
nance was evidently intended for joke,
but he carried it rather too far, and so got
into trouble. But he wont do it again,
and therefore it is not necessary to par
ticuarize further.
Miss Thrza a. Carney of this village
was tried on Friday. The jury did not
agree, standing, according to one report,
six for acquittal and six for conviction;
according to another, nine for convic-
ton and three for acquttal. District
Attorney Plumley of Mortified was as
Burnap of Burlington, and Hon. Henry
Ballard of Burlington and w. ii. Bliss,
Esq, of Middlebury conducted the de-
Tense. 1t appeared from the opening
statement of Mr.. Plumley that sin Sep
TENDER, 1888, Postmaster Peck was noti-
fed that obscene mail matter was being
sent through the Office to Dover, n. H.,
and was requested to stop it. He began
an investigation and his suspicious of the
respondent were aroused by finding
postal cards of the character described
which were deposited at the same time
that a third inoilensive card, which she
now admits having written, was mailed.
The postmaster and Assistant Burke
began systematic watch on Sunday
evenings. On Sept. %, 1888, Deputy
Sheriff Rider and the postmaster and
assistant secreted themselves in the office
and examined aud removed all mail as it
was deposited until the respondent was
seen coming along from church in COM
pany with other women. They saw her
come to the letter box in the glass door
of the post Office and deposit two more
postal cards of an obscene character.
As soon as the nature of the cards was
made certain Rider and Peck went out
and followed her, and, las they claim, iden
titled her.
Messrs. Peck, Rider and Burke testi-
fled to seeing the respondent drop the
postal cards in the box, and said that she
wore light-colored dress. Mr.. A. Il.
Stratton, now of Dover, n. H., told who
got the postal cards in that city. The
respondent was put on the stand and
denied the charge in toto. Other wit
nesses for the respondent were Mrs. w.
c. Langworthy, Miss Julia Phinney,
Mrs. Youtt and her two daughters, Miss
Newton and James Carney, a brother OF
the accused. Five of these and Miss
Carney herself said she wore a black sill,
dress on the night in question.
