BUGGESTIONB TO THE PUBLIC.

Facilities are given to the post-office officials in the diecharge of their daily duties, and greater security afforded to the public, by careful attention to the fol- lowiug recommendations:

Make the address on lettera legible and complete, giving the name of the post-office, county and State. The name of the street and number of the house should Also be given on letters addressed to cities where let- ter carriers are employed; while the letter will eventu- ally reach tts destination without a number, the omission is often a cause of hesitation and delay. In the case of letters for places in foreign countries, the name of the country as well as the post-office should be given in full. Letters addressed, for instance, merely to " London," without adding " England," are frequently sent to London, Canada, and vice versa, thereby causing delay, and often serious loss.

FREE PORTAL DELIVERY.

The Free Postal Delivery System is similar to the one 80 successfully maintained in several of the large Eastern cities. There are ninety-three districts, each of which is in charge of a carrier, who delivers promptly all mail matter received at the Post Office, upon which is written the correct address, street and number of the party for whom it is intended.

All persons who desire their letters, etc., retained until called for, must leave their addreas at the Poat- Office.
