Postal Affairs

THE following is the superscription of a letter that passed through the Louisville, Ky., post-office:

 

      "Feds and Confeds, let this go free

       Down to Nashville, Tennessee;

       This three-cent stamp will pay the cost

       Until you find Sophia Yost.

 

      "Postmasters North, or even South,

       May open it and find the truth;

       I merely say my wife’s got well,

       And has a baby cross as ——, you know."
