 The postal department will not dispatch mail across the ocean which has anything but regulation postage stamps on the face of the envelopes and the letters bore Eu- ropCan addresses. Therefore. with the aid Of his knife, the postmast- CT cheated the dead letter office of quantity of New Britain mail.
