FOOTNOTES:
[216]
When
my
plan
was
published,
the
lowest
General
Post
rate
was
fourpence;
but
while
the
plan
was
under
the
consideration
of
Government
the
rate
between
post
towns
not
more
than
eight
miles
asunder
was
reduced
from
fourpence
to
twopence.
[217]
In
this
comparison
of
revenue,
the
mode
of
calculation
in
use
before
the
adoption
of
penny-postage
has
of
course
been
retained--that
is
to
say,
the
cost
of
the
packets
on
the
one
hand,
and
the
produce
of
the
impressed
newspaper
stamps
on
the
other,
have
been
excluded.
The
amounts
for
1863
are,
to
some
extent,
estimated,
the
accounts
not
having
as
yet
been
fully
made
up.
