Postal Matters.
The practice of : permitting postal em
ployes to change the address upon mis
directed letters and other mail matter, has
been found to be a hindrance rather than
a help in the forwarding of matter to its
destinat'on, and it is accordingly strictly
forbidden under new regulations.
This prohibition has compelled tbe De
partment to make adeeided position upon
a quest on which has for a long time oc
cupied its attention, and which, pending
the decision of the Department, , has been
left to the discretion of tbe Postmaster
and railway postal clerks, and that is,
whether matter not addressed to a post
office can be corsidered mailable.
Upon the advice of the General Super"
intendent of the .Railroad Mail Service,
the Postmaster-General has decided that
matter not addressed to any post office
cannot be forwarded in the mails, but
must be returned to the sender, if known
for better direction, or else sent to the
dead letter office. There are now over
forty two thousand post offices, and from
the data in tbe Post Office Department it
is estimated that the number of places
bavicg local names, but not post offices,
to which matter is sometimes directed, is
at least three times the number of pst
offices, or 126,000.
Pest d employes are required to know
the location of tha post offices in tbe
States for which tbey work or distribute
mails, but it is impossible for them to
know the direction in which matter not
addressed to post offices should be sent
Heretofore tbey have been permitted to
'guess' at the destination of such matter,
but tbe results have convinced the De
partment tbat in a matter of so much im
portance as distribution and dispatch of
mail matter, nothing should be guessed
at. It in easier for the public to address
their mail matter to a post office than it
is for the Department to ascertain where
matter not addressed to a post office
s'roald be sent, and it is to the interest
of the public than this new regulation
should be strictly enforced, bacause it
will be easier to trace missing letters. If
none are admitted to the mails not prop
erly addressed. Fewer losses .will cccur
if postal employes aro prohibited from
'guessing' at tbe destination oi matter not
aduressad to post offices. In order to
prevent auy einbarras-soaent to 'tbe pub
lie, it is desired that inquiry should be
made at the post office, scould there be
any doubt la taking this important
step towards per'ecting the postal service,
the Department hopes to receive the co
operation and support of the public. Any
information desired will be cheerfully
g'uen by calling at the post office.

A Suggestion, j
We respectfully suggest, at the sugges
tion of a prominent commission house in
this city, that the Produce Exchange
agree to a general suspension of business
on the wbarf on Tuesday next, tho 24th
inst., from 2 o'clock in the afternoon un
til thenext day. This, it is thought, will
enable the Committee of Arrangements
who have in charge tbe prograxme for
the ratification meeting, to commence the
order of the day,.inthe way of speaking,
by 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and by so
doing give all of the distinguished speak
era who may honor us with their presence
on that occasion a large audience and a
fine opportunity to display their oratori
cal powers, ' 1
