Baltic Fleet."

Mails for the army in Turkey, and for the fleet in the Black
Sea, are made up in London six times in each month, viz.,
the evenings of the 3d, Bth, 13th, 18th, 23d, and 28th or
(when the month has 31 days) the 29th.
These mails aro forwarded, through France, to Marseilles,
and are thence conveyed to Constantinople by the French
Mail Packets in the Mediterranean.
By the favour of the French Government, no higher charge
is made for the conveyance of the Letters of British soldiers
and Sailors than that which is levied on the correspondenco
of a French naval and military force. A letter, therefore,
under a quarter of an oz. in weight, whether to or from an
officer, a soldier or a seaman; is liable only to a combined
British and foreign rate of 3d. If the letter weighs a quarter
of an oz., and is under half an oz., the charge is 6d. ; if it
exceed half an oz., and does not exceed 1 oz., the charge is'
Is., and so on for heavier letters.
The postage upon newspapers is two-pence each.
The postage both upon letters and newspapers must be paid
in advance..

The above is the speediest and most direct communication
with the fleet in the Black Sea, and with her Majesty's Forces
in Turkey ; but the letters of soldiers and seamen serving
in Turkey and the Black Sea may also bo forwarded to
Malta, via Southampton, twice a month, viz., on the morn-
ings of the 4th and 20th, for the sum of M., under the
usual regulations applicable to such letters. From Nialta
they are sent to their destinations as opportunities offer, by a
ship of war or other vessel in the service of her Majesty,
without any further chnrge.

At the same rate of id., letters may also be forwarded by
any vessel of war, or hired transport, proceeding from Eng-
land to Turkey.
By these opportunities newspapers are transmitted for a
postage of One Penny each, which must be paid in advance.
Letters, &c., for the army iu Turkey, should be addressed
to the Regiment to which the officer or soldier belongs, with
the addition of the words, " Army in Turkey," but without
any further local address.
Letters, &c., for the fleet in the B'ack Sea, should be ad-
dressed with the name of the ship fur which they are destined,
and the fleet to which that ship belongs, without mentioning
any port or town, thus—

" H. M. Ship

Black Sea Fleet."

Mails for the British squadron in she White Sea are for-
warded from Hull every Friday, by private steamers pro-
ceeding to Christiania, whence they will be despatched by
the mail packets of the Norwegian Government.
An officer's letter not exceeding half an oz. in weight, sent
by this route, is liable to a postage (British and foreign com-
bined) of ls.
A seaman's letter, forwarded by this route, not exceeding
half an ounce in weight, is liable to a postage (British and
foreign combined) of 9d,
Upon both classes of letters the postage must be paid in
advance.
The above is the speediest and most direct communication
with the White Sea squadron, and all letters upon which the
requisite amount of postage has been prepaid will be so f
warded unless otherwise addressed.

Letters for the squadron will also be forwarded, should op-
portunities offer, by any ships of war, or vessels in her Ma-
jesty's service, proceeding to the White Sea ; and upon let-
ters so transmitted, the postage, which must be prepaid,
