General Post Office,
13th May, 1859.
SIR,-I am directed by the Postmaster-Gen-
eral to inform you that, in consequence of the
War which has broken out, the Austrian Pack-
ets hitherto plying between Alexandria and
Trieste have been withdrawn, and Letters, &c.
cannot be forwarded to the United Kingdom,
or the Continent of Europe, viâ Trieste.
You will no doubt consider it advisable to
give public notice of this circumstance, and
will discontinue, for the present, making up a

Mail for the Austrian Post Office at Alexan-
dria.
I am, &c.,
T. HILL.

The Postmaster-General,
&c., &c., &c.
Auckland, New Zealand.

General Post Office,
14th May, 1859.
SIR,-With reference to my letter of the
25th June, 1858, in which I requested you to
forward in the Mail for Alexandria, Letters,
&c., addressed to the Ionian Islands, in order
that they might be sent to their destination viâ
Trieste, I am directed by the Postmaster-Gen-
eral to inform you that, as the Austrian Pack-
ets between Trieste and Corfu have been
withdrawn for the present, Her Majesty's
Government, with a view to keeping up a com-
munication with the Ionian Islands, have con-
cluded a Contract with the Peninsular and
Oriental Steam Navigation Company for the
re-establishment of a branch Packet, to proceed
twice a month, between Malta and Corfu. All
Letters, &c., for the Ionian Islands reaching
your office should in future be forwarded in
your Mail for Malta. If, however, you do not
make up a Mail for Malta, the Letters must be
sent in your Mail for the British Office at Alex-
andria.

In consequence of this alteration of route,
Letters for the Ionian Islands dispatched from
your office will henceforth be liable to a British
sea rate of fourpence only per half-ounce, and
newspapers to a British sea rate of one penny
each.

I am, &c.,
T. HILL.

&c., &c., &c.
