It
is
absolutely
forbidden
that
information
respecting
letters
passing
through
the
Post-Office
should
be
given
to
any
persons
except
those
to
whom
such
letters
are
addressed.
Post-Office
officials
are
strictly
prohibited
from
making
known
official
information
of
a
private
character,
or,
in
fact,
any
information
on
the
private
affairs
of
any
person
which
may
be
gathered
from
their
correspondence.
5.
Letters
once
posted
cannot
be
returned
to
the
writers
under
any
pretence
whatever--not
even
to
alter
the
address,
or
even
the
name,
on
a
letter.
Further,
postmasters
have
not
the
power
to
delay
forwarding,
according
to
the
address,
any
letter,
even
though
a
request
to
that
effect
be
made
on
the
envelope,
or
to
them
personally,
either
orally
or
in
writing.
Each
letter,
put
into
the
Post-Office,
is
forwarded,
according
to
its
address,
by
the
first
mail
leaving
the
place,
unless,
indeed,
it
be
posted
"too
late,"
when
it
is
not
forwarded
till
the
next
succeeding
mail.
6.
Each
postmaster
is
required
to
display
a
notice
in
the
most
conspicuous
position
in
his
office,
giving
every
necessary
information
respecting
the
time
of
despatch
and
receipt
of
mails,
delivery
of
letters,
hours
of
attendance,
&c.
&c.
7.
On
Sundays
there
is
usually
but
one
delivery
of
letters,
viz.
in
the
morning,
and
two
hours
are
allowed
during
which
the
public
may
purchase
postage-stamps,
have
letters
registered,
or
pay
foreign
and
colonial
letters,
&c.;
but
for
the
rest
of
the
day
all
other
duties,
so
far
as
the
public
are
concerned,
are
wholly
suspended.
In
the
General
Post-Office
in
London
no
attendance
is
given
to
the
public.
In
all
the
towns
of
Scotland,
and
also
in
one
or
two
towns
in
England,
no
delivery
of
letters
takes
place
from
door
to
door,
but
the
public
may
have
them
by
applying
during
the
time
fixed
for
attendance
at
the
post-office.
