Our readers on receiving their papers last
week doubtless noticcd that about three
inches OF a single column had been ei'Ppeo
from the GraniteviIle items. This was not
because the letter contained anything oo-
iecrionabie so far rs we are concerned Out
the items clipped gave an account: OF some
charity ratfles recently held at the quarry.
and a late ruling of the Postal Department
is that any paper printing any account Oh
any rattle or lottery, whatever, SHAH De eX-
Guided from the mails. After the paper
was printed, our attention was called 10
these items in the Graniteyille correspond
ence. and, upon consultation with Post
master Beard, we thought it best to eiimln-
ate the rattle notices before mailing the pa
pers. It's a singular law, to be sure
but we didn't care for tussle with Uncle
Sam, and acted SO as to be on the safe side.
