PoiST rsApEt. Posr.orrlcE --Lsfters for
the .arny--The mail made upst New Orleans
for Point Isabel, on Saturday week, contained
1900 letters and 800 newspapers. \, The New
Orleans Times says there is great difficulty at
the Point Isabel Post OHice, in the distribution
Of the mails for the army, owing to the neglect
Of the writer's to state on the addressthe names
Of the various Regiments to which their CORES
pondents are attached In thisway letters may
not unfrequeniiy escape their destination. as
il IL quite impossible 10 divine whether they
are Ia be despatched to Fort Brown, Matamo-
vas or Barita. Those who have friends in the
army would do well to bear this ia mind.
