Her Majesty's Mails

We
have
seen
complaints
made
from
the
public
press
that
in
the
Post-Office
there
is
only
a
pretension
to
secrecy
in
this
matter,
while
the
arrangements
which
make
the
savings-bank
operations
so
closely
connected
with
money-order
business,
conducted
by
the
same
clerk
at
the
same
desk,
is
anything
but
conducive
to
desirable
privacy.
There
is
much
truth
in
the
latter
remark;
and
if,
when
the
system
is
perfected
and
its
work
properly
gauged,
there
be
no
change,
the
new
banks
may
very
possibly
suffer
on
this
account.
CHAPTER
VI.
BEING
MISCELLANEOUS
AND
SUGGESTIVE.
1.
Every
person
or
firm
engaged
in
extensive
correspondence
should
purchase
the
"British
Postal
Guide,"
at
least
once
a-year.
It
is
published
quarterly,
and
may
be
had
at
any
post-office
for
a
shilling.
2.
Those
engaged
in
frequent
correspondence
with
our
colonies
or
with
foreign
countries
should,
in
addition,
subscribe
for
the
"Postal
Official
Circular,"
published
weekly
for
a
penny,
which
gives
the
latest
information
on
all
points
regarding
the
incoming
and
outgoing
of
all
foreign
and
colonial
mails.
3.
Since
the
division
of
the
metropolis
into
postal
districts,
those
requiring
frequent
communication
with
different
parts
of
London
will
find
of
great
service
a
penny
book
which
contains
a
list
of
all
the
streets,
&c.
in
London
and
its
environs,
as
divided
into
the
ten
districts,
and
giving
the
initials
in
each
case.
This
book
may
be
purchased
at
any
post-office.
It
is
said
that
delay
is
sometimes
avoided
by
adding
the
initials
of
the
London
districts
to
letters
forwarded
from
the
provinces.
