Las images suivantes ont 6t6 reproduites avec le plus grand soin, compte tenu de la condition et de la nettetd de rexemplaire film6, et en conformity avec les conditions du contrat de filmage. 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 V (meaning "END"), whichever applies. Les exemplaires originaux dont la couverture en papier est imprimde sont filmds en commenpant par le premier plat et en terminant soit par la dernidre page qui comporte une empreinte d'impression ou d'illustration, soit par le second plat, salon le cas. Tous les autres exemplaires originaux sont film6s en commenpant par la premidre page qui comporte une empreinte d'impression ou d'illustration et en terminant par la dernidre page qui comporte une telle empreinte. Un des symboles suivants apparaitra sur la dernidre image de cheque microfiche, selon le cas: le symbole — ^> signifie "A SUIVRE", le symbole V 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. The following diagrams illustrate the method: Les cartes, planches, tableaux, etc., peuvent dtre film6s d des taux de reduction diffdrents. Lorsque le document est trop grand pour dtre reproduit en un seul clichd, il est film6 d partir de Tangle sup6rieur gauche, de gauche d droite, et de haut en bas, en prenant le nombre d'images ndcessaire.

I Su^g-estions to the PuUic. Fflcility will be !ii\('n to the Post Otlice in the discharge of its daily duties, and iricater security atforded to the public, by careftil attention to tlie following I'econiniendations : Post all Letters and Newspapers, &c., as early as practicable, especially when sent in larii'e bundU's. Wlien a nunibei' of Newspapers are addressed to the same office, put them up in one parcel. When a number ol" Circulars ai-c posted, tie them up in a bundle, with the address ail in one direction. Address letters, papers, >.<:(•. .in a legible and complete nninner, always giving the iinine of tiie Post Oilice: and if there be more than one Post Otlice of tiiat name, the name of the district in which situated. In case of letters going abroad, the naiue of the country, as well as of the town and city, should l)e given in full. Letters, for example, intended for iiondon, England, if simply addressed "London," would be forwarded to J^ondon, (Canada West, and thus l)e delayed. Letters, Papers or Pai'cels for ()uti)orts should have the name of the district, the Post or Way Otticc distinctly written as part of the addr'.'ss. For instance, letters for Pxnnie IJay. Fi'ench Shore, are sometimes sent to lionne Bi\y, Fortune Bay District, being simply directed iioniie Pay. There are sevei-al set Mements named Broad Cove, Little Jiay, Lnglisii lIarl)or, Plackhead. Balline, Ca- plin Cove, Deer Island, Flat^ Islands. Fcrfme, Fox Cove, Fresh- water, Islaud Cove, Long Harbor, Burgeo. New Harbor, Salmon Cove, Seal Cove, Ship Cove, and unless properly directed are liable to go to wrong otlice for delivery. The loss and inconveni- ence arising tVom imperfect directions, is caused by the careless- ness of the sender, and no blauu' can attach to the Post OlHce. Other places besitles those named. ha\c settlements with corres- ponding appellation, hence tin- nece^-~it\ of being particular in adtlressing all h'tti rs, ».^c. See that every letter. !U'Wsi)aper oi' other packet sent by post, is securely folded and sealed. H\ cry such packet has to be several times handled : and e\ en when inthe mail bag. is exposed to ])res- sure and friction. Inlcss. thert^foi-e, the arti<'li' l)e light and pliant, it should be enclosed in strong pai)ei\ linen, parcliment, or some otiier material which will not readily tear or l-.reak. Fasti'U the covers of iiews|)a|)ers tirnil.w so as to prevent them IVom slipping out. When droppinii' a lei ler or new s|iaper into a letter-liox, always see that the packet falls into the box. and does not stick in its passau'c. 40 TFIE NEWFOUNDLAND ALMANAC. Never seal letters for the East and West Indies and other hot climates, with wax. Such a practice is attended with much in- couveuience and frecjuently witli ,-ierious injury, in consequence of the melting of the wax, and the adht'sion of the letters to each other. In all such cases use wafers or ^iim, and advise your cor- respondents in the country referred to, to do the same. Never send money or other articles of value throuijh the Post Office, except either by nieaus of a money order, or in a registered letter. " Any person who sends money or jewellery in an unregis- tered letter, not only runs tho' risk of losing his property, but exposes to temptation every one tlirough whose hands his letter passes, and may be the me;ms of ultimately bringing some clerk or letter-carrier to moral ruin." Carefully secure every letter or packet containing money oi- value, Urst with gum and afterwards with good sealing-wax, on which mark the clear impression of a seal. On posting a registered letter or packet, always obtain a receipt for the same at the otlice where posted. When letters or newspapers are delayed and missing, at once communicate the fact to the I'ostmaster of the Division in which is situated the Post Office at which the delayed or missing letters were posted. In case of a missing letter, enclose value, state the exact contents, the exact address, and the; office at which posted; the name of the person l)y whom posted, and the name of the per- son by whom received at the office. In the case of a delayed letter or paper, send the cover or wrapper in an entire state, in order that the place of delay may be ascertained by an examination of the post marks. Trouble and loss occasionally arise out of the carelessness or dishonesty of parties employed in tho Post Office service: yet in- stances are not wanting in which it has ])een shown to the satis- faction even of the complainants, that the fault at ffrst attributed to the Post Office, in truth rested in other (juarters. Theft I)y private hands, although very ditiicult of pro(jf, have not unfreiiueJitly been brought to light ; and it is greatly to be desired that those who suffer loss should, in the ffr.-t instance, and while the circum- stances are fresh, endeavor to ascertain with tiie utmost preci- sion all particulars respecting the despatch or receipt of the lost letters or papers, and lose no time in communicating this infornaation to the Postmaster. Indeed, generally speaking, it is only by careful inquiry into minute details that the offender can be detected, whether he be a servant of a department or not. The Post Office is a department which admits of constant im- provement and expansion. The public, hy sending to tlie Post- master-General, clear and correct infoiination respecting faulty arrangements, may materially benelit tlie service. It must be remembered, however, that changes in machinery so extensive and intricate as that of tlie Post Office, must be made cautiously and with much previous consideration. Time is generally required to carry out any material change in postal arrangements : for even when decided upon, old con- tracts, requiring notice of termination, may have to be got rid of, and tenders for new contracts invited by public advertise- ments, before the decision can take effect. THE NEWFOUNDLAND ALMANAC. 41 it New Post Otftces are estal)lishe(l Ity the Department wlierever it i)ri ascertained that a siifflcient uuinliei- ol" inhabitauts ean be ae- commodated, and a snfflcient amount of postal revenue collected to warrant -such a measure. When a new I'ost Ottice is re((uir3d, a petition should be addressed to tlic Postmaster General, signed by as many of the iidiabitants as can conveniently subscribe the same.
