* The estimate for 1839 is founded on the ascertained
number of letters for one week in the month of November,
and, strictly speaking, it is for the year ending December
5, at which time 4d. w^ s made the maximum rate. The
estimate for each subsequent year is founded on the ascer-
tained number of letters for one week in each calendar
month.—Vide Return to the House of Commons, No. 502,
