The attention of boxholders is called to the necessity of carefully scaling such boxes with some recognisable scal, and of sending a chit- book or receipt with them. The omission of the latter precaution leaves a doubt as to whether the contents of the box ever reached the Post Office: the omission of the former, as to whether part of them might not have been abstracted for the sake of the Postage stamps,

TEA MUSTERS.
Persons who send Musters of Tea through the 65.95 to 6.03 Post in Tins are requested to have them made 675 to 85 flat or square instead of round, as it is impossible $305 10 3.15 815 to 395 to pack round tins securely in the mail bags. It is Tess believed that the ten will travel more safely, in flat tins, which are not so liable as round ones to be bulged in. 4 by 3 by 14 inches is suggested as a good size. The tins should not have sharp corners.
