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.”
