London, 26th February, 1863.Sir—Information having been received from the Director-General of the Italian Post Office, that Italian Packets have been established twice a month between Alexandria and Ancona, I am directed by the Postmaster-General to request that you will be good enough to cause all correspondence addressed to Italy to be forwarded from New Zealand in the mails made up for the British Post Office at Alexandria, instead of in the mails for Malta, as heretofore, in order that it may be conveyed to its destination by the New Italian Line of Mail Packets direct to Ancona.
The same rates of postage as at present will continue to be chargeable on letters, &c., for Italy.
I have, &c.,
