INCREDIBLE CARELESSNESS.

The Post Office authorities announce that nearly 3,000,000 letters went to the Dead Letter Office last year, of which 58,000 had no county or State direction; over 400,000 were not properly stamped, and 3,000 were not stamped at all. In these letters were found $92,000 in cash, and over $3,000,000 in drafts or checks, or an average of a dollar in every misdirected letter.
