Original copies in printed paper covers are filmed beginning with the front cover and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated impres- sion, or the back cover when appropriate. All other original copies are filmed beginning on the first page with a printed or illustrated impres- sion, and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated impression. The last recorded frame on each microfiche shall contain the symbol —^(meaning "CON- TINUED "), or the symbol y (meaning "END"), whichever applies. Les images suivantes ont 6t6 reproduites avec le plus grand soin. compte tenu de la condition et de la nettet6 de l'exemplaire film6. et en conformity avec les conditions du contrat de filmage.

Un des symboles suivants apparaitra sur la dernidre image de chaque microfiche, selon le cas: le symbole — ^> signifie "A SUIVRE", le symbole Y signifie "FIN". Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at different reduction ratios. Those too large to be entirely included in one exposure are filmed beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to right and top to bottom, as many frames as required.

O'her places besides those named liave settlements with corros- pjudiug api'dation ; hence the necessity of being particular in 'iddressing all letters, &c. See that every letter, newspaper or other packet sent by post, is securely folded' and sealed. Every such packet h ;s to bo several times handled; nnd even when in the mail bag is exposed to pressure and friction. Unless, therefore, the article be light and pliant, it, should be enclosed in strong i)apor, lluen, parchmenl, or other materia! which will not readily tear or break. Fasten the covers of newspapers lirmly, so as to prevent thera from slipping out. Fully p.iy postage on newspaper^;, otherwise you lose both papers and stamps, as such are not forwardetl. When dropping a letter or newspaper into a letter-box, always see that, the packet falls into the box, and does not stick in its passage. Never seal letters for the East and West Indies and other hot climates with wax. Such a practice is attende 1 with much incon- venience and frequently with serioiis injury, in conset]uence of the melting of the wax and the adhesion of the letters to each other. In all such cases use wafers or gum, and advise your correspon- dents in the country referred to, to ilo the same. Never send money or other {\rticles of value through the Post Otlice, except either by means of a money order or in a registered letter. " Any person who sends money or Jewellery in an unregis- tered letter, not only runs the risk of losing his property, but exposes lo temptation every ou<3 through whose hands his letter passes, and may be the means of ultimately Ijringing some clerk or letter-carrier to moral ruin " Caretully sec ire every letter or packet containing money or value, tir.^t with gum and afterwards with good sealing-wax, on which mark the clear impression of a geal. This only applies to Lv)cal correspondence, the forwarding of such articles to other countries being prohibited. On posting a registered letter or packet, always obtain a receipt for the same at the otlice where posteil. When letters or newspapers are delayed and missing, at orC2 communicate the fact to the ]^>stmaster of the Divi-sion in which is situated the Post Oihce at which the delayed or missing leLters were posted. In case of a missing letter enclosing value, state the exact contents, the exact address, and the ofllce at which posted; the name of the i)erson l>y whom posted, and the name of the person by whom received at the office. In the ease of a de- layed letter or paper, send the cover or wrapper in an entire state, in order that the place of delay may be ascertained by an examin- ation of the post marks. Trouble and loss occasionally arise out of the carelessness or dishonesty of parties cnployed in the Post Oflicc service; yet in- stances are noL wanting in which it has been shown to the satis- fac'iou even of the complainants, that the fault at (Irst attributed to the Post Olllce, in truth rested in other .piarters. Theft l)y private hands, altlnjugh very dilMcnlt of proof, has frequently been brought to light; and it is greatly to ))e desired that those who suffer loss tshould in the llrst instance, and while the circum- stances are fresh, endeavor to ascertain with the utmost precision all particulars respecting the despatch or receipt of the lost letters THE NEWFOUNDLAND ALMANAC. 39 or papiir.s, auU lose r.o time in communicating the information to the ro^itma.ster. Indeed, /jjeuerally speakinir, it i.s only by careful inquiry into nnnute details that the ollVuder can l)e detected, whetlier he in a .servant of a departnunic or not. The Post OlUce is a department vvhicli admits of constant im- provement and expansion. The public, by sending to the Post- master-General clear and corroet information respecting faulty arrangements, may materially l)L-ne(it the .service. It must be re- membered, however, that elianges in machinery so extensive and intricate as tluit of the Posl <)iru;e, must be made cautiously and with much previous consideration. Time is generally requind to eany out any material change in postal arrangements ; for even when tlecided upon, old contracts requiring notice of termination may have to be got rid of, and tenders for new contract.-, invited by public advertisements, before the decision can t!iluy • Ilulyrood iliirlxj!' i\Iaiii t • • t OFFICK KKKVEK. jM.
