oo” THE EVENING STAR. Tue Imrortance or Pavine THS PosTaoR IN Furi.—The lawis, whenany bing is pat into the post office underpaid, the sum which Temsins & fue shall be paid double by the receiv- er. Thus, if John Smith send Jim Jones a letter rated at 6 cents, but pays 3 cents only, it is not kept back Ike an unpaid letter, bat Jim Jones at the end has the 6 cents to pay. And 80 of all packages through the mail. This ex- tra charge of 33 per cent. we suppose is tomake peeple more careful to know that they pay , enough, and to compensate for extra tronbles and risk. Letters are 3 cents per half ounee— 6 cents per ounce—and £0 on, cach fraction over % Ounce or 1 ounce counting 3 cents. This applies toall mailable matter, cealed or un- sealed, except newspapers, which rate at 2 cents for each four ounces, and books and pamphiets, which rate at4 cents each four ounces.
