To Whom It May Concern.

By Editor

A HUGE package of tracts, of two pounds and a half weight, printed at this Office, but sent from some other post-office, has come to us from the dead letter office, marked, “Excess of weight.” The package is addressed to “George Molyneux, King Edward Road, N. Great Grimsby, England.” What shall be done with them?

We would further state, that it is a law of this Office that no package of tracts or small books shall exceed twenty ounces, and that all such packages to Europe, or to distant parts of our own country, shall be wrapped with at least three thicknesses of firm paper, well secured by linen twine. The huge package afore-mentioned came to us nearly naked, held together by a string furnished by the government at Washington. If the sender of these books had put them in three or four packages, and properly wrapped each pack, the books would doubtless now be in England. That others may be benefited by these hints is the reason of this extended notice.
