Cancelled Stamps.

Mr.. T. g. Johns, Of Carlisle, was
up before Mr.. w. w. Dixon, u. S.
Commissioner, last Saturday, charged
with using cancelled postage stamps
for mailing letters. Inspector J. J.
Smith was present representing the
post offibe department. Two letters
were produced at the trial, one for
Mr.. G. A. Vaughan and one for The
UNION TINES, both mailed from Car
Isle at the same time. Both of these
letters were sent to the Inspector
who sent them to Post Master Hun
ter at this place with instructions to
collect double postage and deliver,
and secure the envelopes, which he
did, and returned them to the inspec-
tor. Both envelopes were in owl
dence.
Pack sartor, colorsd, post master
at Carlisle, testified that Mr.. T. 8.
Johns bought . stamp from him and
put it in ono Of these letters and
sealing IL up handed him, the post
master, both letters. The Editor OF
THE TINES identified the envelope
addressed to The TINES. Mr..
Vaughan was not present. 1t was
not proven that q stamp was in either
letter.
The postmaster at Carlisle sent
the letters to tho inspector because
he thought cancelled stamps had
been used on them.
Mr.. Dixon considered the evidenc,
against Mr.. Johns sufficient to hole
him, and bound him over to appear
at United States Court in Greenvill,
