Many persons dre in the habit of addressing Letters, &c., for well-known Firms and Indi- vidapin, to "London" only; but this practice not unfrequently occasions delay in such Letters, &c. rexobing their rightful owners. In all, cases, however well the Firm or Individual for whom a letter is intended may be known, it is most essential, to ensure it correct and prompt delivery, that the streets in which they. reside, and the number of the hosee, should form a part of the address.
