Postage-stamps
or
stamped
envelopes
(the
latter
to
be
had
in
packets
or
parts
of
packets,
and
charged
at
an
uniform
rate,
viz.
2s.
and
3d.
for
a
packet
of
twenty-four
envelopes)
may
be
obtained
at
any
post-office
in
the
United
Kingdom
at
any
time
during
which
the
office
is
open--in
most
cases,
from
7
or
7.30
A.M.
till
10
P.M.
13.
A
licence
to
sell
postage-stamps
can
be
obtained,
free
of
expense,
by
any
respectable
person,
on
application
to
the
office
of
Inland
Revenue,
Somerset
House,
London,
or
(in
the
provinces)
by
application
to
the
district
stamp
distributor.
14.
Every
rural
messenger
is
authorized
to
sell
stamps
and
embossed
envelopes
at
the
same
price
at
which
postmasters
sell
them;
and
when,
in
the
country,
the
rural
postman
is
applied
to
for
these
articles,
he
must
either
supply
them,
or
(if
he
has
none
in
his
possession)
must
take
letters
with
the
postage
in
money,
and
carefully
affix
stamps
to
them
when
he
arrives
at
the
end
of
his
journey.
15.
Each
postmaster
is
authorized
to
purchase
postage-stamps
from
the
public,
if
not
soiled
or
otherwise
damaged,
at
a
fixed
charge
of
2½
per
cent.
Single
stamps
will
not
be
received,
but
those
offered
must
be
presented
in
strips
containing
at
least
two
stamps
adhering
to
each
other.
This
arrangement
was
fixed
upon
primarily
in
order
to
discourage
the
transmission
of
coin
by
post.
16.
Letter-carriers
and
rural
messengers
are
prohibited
at
any
time
from
distributing
letters,
newspapers,
&c.,
except
such
as
have
passed
through
the
Post-Office.
They
are
not
allowed
to
receive
any
payment
beyond
the
unpaid
postage
on
letters
or
newspapers
delivered.[209]
Further,
in
delivering
letters,
they
are
not
allowed
to
deviate
from
the
route
laid
down
for
them
by
the
proper
authorities.
