Letters must be left at the Post Office within the time specified, to insure going in the mail of the day; and newspapers half an hour before that time, carefully put up and legibly directed, otherwise they will not be sent. As there are several places of the same name in the United States, it is necessary that the directions should be particular ; the States should be distinguished, and when it might be doubtful, the Counties. When letters are not for a post town, the nearest post town ought to be mentioned. The office is open, daily, from sunrise to 8 P. M. except Sundays, the Fourth of July, and Christmas day, when it is open from 72 to 8} A. M., and from 6 to 7 P. M.


Persons wishing to pay postage when the office is shut, can inclose the money with the letter, directed to " The Post Office.". Those who keep accounts with the Carriers or Office, will please inclose the letter di- rected in the same manner, with a request that the post- age be charged to their account.


All notes or letters deposited in this office, directed to any part of this city, this side of Broad street, and to the populous parts of the Northern Liberties and Southwark, will be carried out with the Eastern, South- ern and Western Mails.
