General Post Office,
Auckland, 5th February, 1862.

THE attention of Postmasters throughout
the Colony is called to the following
despatches from the Secretary to the General
Post Office of the United Kingdom.

CROSBIE WARD.

General Post Office,
7th November, 1861.

SIR,-It has been brought to the notice of
the Postmaster-General that a practice prevails
to some extent, in the Colonies, of forwarding
to England in Book Packets, and prepaid at
the Book Rate of Postage, Photographs in
cases containing glass.

As the regulations, however, of the Book
Post do not allow of glass being enclosed in
Book Packets, I am directed by the Postmaster
General to call your attention to this irregular-
ity, in order that you may take steps for pre-
venting its recurrence.

I am, at the same time, to point out that
Photographs in glass cases can only be sent
through the Post, even as Letters, and at
Letter Rates of Postage, when packed so
securely that no damage can be done to the
correspondence in the Mails, or to the Officers
of the Department.

I have, &c.,
ROWLAND HILL,
Secretary.

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

General Post Office, London,
12th November, 1861.

SIR, -I am directed by the Postmaster Gen-
eral to acquaint you that the British postage
of letters forwarded by Packet between the
United Kingdom and the Republic of Venezuela
has been reduced.

Upon letters, therefore, forwarded from New
Zealand through the United Kingdom to
Venezuela, the reduced rate of 5d. only for a
letter not exceeding half an ounce in weight,
and so on, according to the usual scale, must in
future be accounted for to this office.

I am, &c.,
F. HILL.

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