General Post-Office, July 31, 1925.

Sra—An Act of Parliament has passed) re.
pealing that under which T enjoyed the privilege of franking
Newspapers, &c. to the Colonies.
I therefore take the earliest opportunity of apprizing you,
that the privilege ceases on the 10th of October next, until
which time I shall continue to forward the Newspapers, &c. as
usual ; but I cannot frank any Newspaper after that date.
It may, how • ver, be useful to you to be inforMed in what
manner Newspapers can be 1r tnsmitted to the Colonies after the
10th of October, and I enclose an Abstract of that part of the
Act which relates thereto. I atp, Sir,
Your obedient humble Servant,
F. FREELING, Secretary.

By an Act of Parliament passed this Session it is enacted,.
that, from and after the 10th of October, 1825, printed News-
papas, and other printed Publications liable to the stamp du-
ties; may be sent to any of his :Majesty's Colonies or Possessions
beyond seas, by the packet boats, upon the payment of one
penny halfpenny for every such Paper (that payment to be
made at the time the Newspaper 1s put into the post) proiided
the same be sent in covers open at the sides, and be put into the
Post-office in any town in Great Britain or Ireland, on the day
on which the same shall be published, such day to be ascertain-
ed by the date of the Papers.
Also. Newspapers printed in the Colonies may be sent (in
covers open at the sides) by the packets to Great Britain and
Ireland, for the postage of threepence on each Paper, to be paid
by the persons to whom the same may be addressed.
If any other Paper or thing whatsover be .enclosed or con-
cealed in. such printed Papers, or there shall be any writing,
other than the sonerscript.on, upon such Papers or their covers,
they are to be charged with treble the postage of a letter.
And Papers sent from Great Britain and' Ireland,
whicli if anyliableare to the Stamp Duties, are not duly stamped,
they are to he stopped and sent to the Commissioners of Stamps
Also, if they are not put into the Pod-office on the day of
their date, they are to be charged with a single rate of postage.
Newspapers published on Sunday, may be sent as above, if
put in on the.ensuing day.
This Act does nnt oblige persons to send printed Papers to or
