POSTAL.

Suspension of proposed increase of Postage on Letters
sent by Mail Packet from Great Britain.

General Post Office,

THE following Despatch from the Secretary of the
General Post Office, London, is published for
general information.

THOMAS B. GILLIES,
Postmaster-General.

General Post Office,
London, 19th July, 1864.

SIR, - In a letter dated the 18th ultimo, I informed
you, with reference to a previous communication to

the Government of New Zealand, that, on the 1st
instant, the postage of letters sent by packet from
the United Kingdom to the Australian Colonies and
New Zealand, via Southampton, would be raised
from sixpence to one shillingβ€”a corresponding in-
crease of charge being made on letters sent via
Marseilles.

Simultaneously it was intended to reduce, from
sixpence to fourpence, the postage of letters for-
warded to those Colonies by private ship.

I am now directed by the Postmaster-General to
acquaint you that, in consequence of the objectio...
which have been stronΓΈlv
Colonic
gou, on behalf of the
, to the proposed augmentation of the post-
age, it has been determined, until there has been
time for further communication on the subject with
the Australian Colonial Government, to suspend the
measure.

The old rates of postage will, therefore, continue
for the present to be collected in this country.

I am, &c.,
F. HILL.

The Postmaster-General, Auckland.
