To guard against such injury all postal packets which are likely to suffer from stamping or from great pressure should be placed in strong covers; and even with this precaution no fragile article should be sent through the Post. It should be remembered that every packet has to be handled several times; that it is exposed to considerable pressure and friction in the mail bag; and that, whenever the bag has in the course of its transmission to be transferred by means of the railway apparatus, the risk of injury is much increased.
No information can be given respecting letters which pass through a Post Office except to the persons to whom they are addressed; and in no other way is official information of a private character allowed to be made publio. A Postmaster may, however, give an address if he has no reason to believe that the person whose address It is would disapprove of his doing so.
Postmasters are not allowed to return any letter or other packet to the writer or sender, or to any one else, or to delay forwarding it to Ita destination according to the address, even though a request to much effect be written thereon.
Postmasters are not bound to give change, nor are they authorised to demand change; and when moaay is pald at a Post Office, whether as change or otherwise, no question as to its right amount, goodness, or weight can be entertained after it has been removed from the counter.
Postmasters are not bound to weigh any letters or other packets for the public, but they may do so if their duty be not thereby impeded,
The practice of sealing letters passing to and from the East and West Indies, and other countries with hot climates, with wax (except auch seis specially prepared), is attended with much inconvenience, and frequently with serious injury, not only to the letters so sealed but to the other letters In the mail, from the melting of the wax and adhesion of the letters to each other. The public are therefore recommended, in all âuch cases, to use oltber wafers or gum, and to advise their correspondents in the coun- tries referred to, to do the same,
