RECALLING A MAILED LETTER,
Many Rules to be Observed Before tho
Object Can DO Accomplished.

To recall n letter once mailed is al
most as difficult a task as to take bnck
nm assertion once uttered. The sender
must appear at the ~postohice and is
handed a blank to fill out. In this he
must state when and where he mailed
the letter, how it was addressed, must
describe the envelope, state the amount
OF postage prepaid, and testify chat
The aforementioned letter was writ
ten by me or by my authority. and l
desire to recall it for the following
reason"-and then state the reason,
which is usually "mailed by mistake"
He must then sign his name, so That
the handwriting may be compared
with that on the letter, and sign a re-
ceipt. If the address cannot be shown
to be in his handwriting, or is printed
OF typewriLten1 he must describe some
pe~cnilaflties OF The envelope sufficient
To identify it. If he is unable to do
this the letter is refused, unless the
postmaster knows the applicant and is
satisfied concerning his good inton-
tons. Ii he is satisfied, he asked for
a statement concerning the contents,
and the applicant is then obliged to
open the letter and read portions of it
In the postmastcr's presence to prove
that it is the one he described.
But if the letter has been sent away
the process of recalling it is still more
difficult. A similar blank has TO be
filed ont and Il minute description
telesraphed at the sonder's expense to
the postmaster at the Office of its
destination. Il discovered in time the
letter is then intercepted and sent to
the department ut Washington with a
statement of the case. Why should
any one want to recall n letter so
much rs to take this troubled Well,
there wa II case at the local office
recently where n valuable deed was
mailed and the sender received iufor-
nation that satisfied him that tile sale
should not be made. In another case
an important contract was sent, and
Information received Immediately after
made it imperative that it should be
revoked Sprinatietd Republican.
