Mails exchanged with Manila and Saigon,
The Philippine Islands being now admit. ted into the General l'ostal Union, it fol- lows that all paid correspondence received from Manila in the nails will be delivered free by this Office, and that all paid cor- respondence sent to Maoils in the mails should be delivered free there.
Article IX of the l'ostal Treaty of Berno provides that "Neither the senders nor the addressess of letters and other postal packets shall be called upon to pay, either in the Country of Origin, or in that of Destination, any tax or duty other than" the recognised rates levied (in the ease of paid correspondence) by the despatching Ufice. It is hoped that any extra charge, or apparently extra charge, will at once bo brought to the noice of the proper authorities, in elther Colony.
The above does not app y in any to loose letters sont outside the mails. These will always be charged on, arzival in Hongkong and probably the Manila Uffice will adopt the same course.
Complainta are sometimes received of extra charges on correspondence exchanged between this Colony and Saigon, but it is believed it would be found in all cases that the letters, &c., had been sent loose.
Pattern and Sample Post to colonies and foreign countries is restricted to bona fide trade patterns or samples of merchandise. Goods sent for sale, or in execution of an order (however small the quantity may be), or any articlus sent by one private indivi- dual to another, which are not actual patterns or samples, are not admissible,
Patterns or samples, when practicable, must be sent in corers open at the ends, and in such a manner as to be eary of examination. Samples of seade, drugs, and such like articles, which cannot be sent in covers of this kind,but such articles only,--may be posted enclosed in boxes, or bags of linen or other material, fastened in such mannor that they may be readily opened; or, in the oase of seeds, &c., is bage entirely closed, provided such closed bags are transparent, so as to enable the Officers of the Post Office readily to satisfy themselves as to the nature of the cou-forwarded. tents.

It should be remembered that every packet has to be handled several times; that it is exposed to considerable pressure and friction in the mail bag and that, whenever the bag has in the course of its transmission to be transferred by msaa of the railway apparatas, the risk of injury
is much increased.
No information can be given respecting lettera which pasa through a Post Office except to the persons to whom they are addressed; and in no other way is official information of a private character allowed to be made public. A Postmaster may, however, give an address if he has no reason to believe that the person whose address it is would disapprove of his doing. ao.
Postmasters are not allowed to return any letter or other packet to the writer or sender, or to any one else, or to delay forwarding it to its destination according to the address, even though a request to auch effect be written thereon.
Postmasters are not bound to give change, nor are they authorised to demand change; and when money is paid at a Post Office, whether as change or otherwise, no question as to its right amount, goodness, or weight can be entertained after it has been removed from the counter.
Postmasters are not bound to weigh any letters or other packets for the public, but they may do so if their duty be not thereby impeded.

Neverthe- less large sums of money or other articles of great value should not be sent through the post, even If the packet be registered; as the machinery of the Department is not arranged with a view to such transmission. By law, the Post Office is not responsible for the safe delivery of registered packets: though any officer who may neglect bis duty on this point will be called to strict account.
