THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 28TH JULY, 1877.

POST OFFICE NOTICE.

The attention of owners, agents, and charterers of steamers is drawn to the provisions of The Post Office Ordinance, 1876, which comes into force on the 23rd instant.

Under the old Ordinance no notice was required of the departure of a vessel if not advertised, nor of departure for Canton or Macao. Notice is now required of any departure, the gh with regard to sailing ships, the old rule will practically remain in force, that notice need not be sent unless asked

for.

Section XXV requires that the first notice be sent to the Post Office.

In the case of steamers plying regularly or on fixed days, notice of any change in the day or hour will be sufficient.

Stamped correspondence may still be sent on board any vessel after the Mail is closed at the Post

Office.

The Postmaster General takes this opportunity of calling the attention of firms to the fact that any such words as Despatches will close at 11 A.M., added to the advertisement of a vessel are illegal. Consignees' letters are exempted by law from passing through the Post Office, but no person is allowed to make a collection of such letters for transmission under a penalty of £100 per week during which the practice is continued.
