viii of tho Whaling Bark Philip 4. at the
Loo ChOO Islands.

Mr.. EDITOR On my passage from Guam to the
Jsnan Sea in Lat. 81 80 N, and Long. 125 80 E., I
fell in with a junk dismasted and in q completely dis
abled condition., took on board the people, twenty
seven men and women, and steered for Loo Choo,
where they said they wished to go. Took them on
board the 10Th of February, and on the 18th went
into the harbor of Napa Kiang and landed them, to-
gether with what they had saved from the wreck.
The officials treated me very kindly, invited me and
my officers TO a feast at the court house. l received
several presents from the Governor of Napa and also
from the Regent of the Kingdom. The Governor also
sent ON board two bullocks, four hogs, two goats, hive
hundred eggs, and also fowls and vegetables. They
also furnished me with two tons of very good sweet
potatoes at a very reasonable charge. The junk was
"a government one from Napa bound to Ty-pin-san
Madiaco, Sima Islands, with a mandarin on board
rs governor. She was dismasted five days out, and
had been drifting about unmanageable for some time.
They were short of water at the time l fell in with
them.
The harbor of Napa Kiang bears about E.. from the
Kalama or Amerkirrama Islands, distant ten OF
twelve miles, and is easy of access with the wind any
where from the western quarter, but rather difficult
to a stranger as it will appear to be a perfect laby-
rinth of reefs. There is a very dangerous reef to the
south of the harbor, some four or five miles from Loo
ChOO and also some low coral islands and extensive
reefs 10 Jne nOftn OF the port. Queer LdSI Aom IL
Kalama Islands to pass between these reefs, keeping
the north one one and q half or two miles distant.
and if it is clear the town of Napa will be seen, and
also the reefs at the entrance of the port when, ac-
cording to their treaty with Commodore Perry, q
skillful pilot will come off to conduct the ship to th(
anchorage, which is in eleven fathoms and secure.
According TO the little information | could gather
there, l do not think it q proper place for o whale
ship to get a recruit for the North, as the people o.
rather the officials, are reluctant about furnishing
anything to a stranger, being, in fact, under the rule
of Japan. Wood can be got there at five dollars PEE
ton, and water at the rate of f~orty-fve cents for siy
barrels. BEN. I'll. SIssoN,
Master Bark Philip I.

To persons mailing Letters for California and the Terri
tories Of Washington and Oregon Thousands of letters sent
the Post Office Department, under the authority of Congress, has
adopted as an auxiliary to its operations the following plan for
simultaneously publishing at each and every post office in the
Pacific region, in a list called Pacific Mail List" the names of
persons to whom letters have been sent by mail to post Offices in
this system, a letter may be sent to any post Office in the Pacific
region for a person whose location is unknown, save the mere
IhaI ne i SOWeWneTe IN a y, Lhe rNo %
Oregon and Washington; if the letter be published in the Pacfc
Mail List, its ultimate reception by the person for whom it is
intended will be rendered highly probable. oenable those who
may desire to extend to tfcig Pacific correspondents the advan-
tages thus offered, the following illustration Is given:
Suppose it is wished to send to the Sacramento post Office a
letter for George Wilson, who emigrated to California from Pike
county, Missouri, but it is feared that he may have changed his
location, and hence may not receive the letter. In this case,
direct the letter to George Wilson, Gate of Pike county, Missouri
Sacramento, California. Then, in order to publish the letter in
the Pacific Mail List, copy the address of the letter upon a
piece of paper or card, and enclose the card, together with a
threecent postage stamp, in an envelope to the Pacific Mail
Last, N. Y. Deposit the letter, as usual, in the mail for Cali
fornia, and at the same time drop the envelope, containing the
card to publish the letter, in the mail for New York. From
the address on the card thus received at the New York post Office
the name, George Wilson, will be entered in its appropriate place
in the Pacific Mail List, which is printed and sent by mail to
each and every postmaster in California and the Territories o
Oregon and Washington, and by them posted in a conspicuous
over the entire Pacific region, George Wilson may at once learn
from it that a letter for him has been sent to the Sacramento
for the address on it points out that it is intended for George
Wilson, late of Pike county, Missouri. Thus MANY letters will
be received that would otherwise be transmitted to the dead
letter Office.
The envelopes containing the advertising cards sent to the
Pacific Mai LIST New York pay postage like ordinary Una mail
on the pieces of paper or cards should be written in a plain and
envelopes defray the expenses of publication, and must NOT be
pasted to the cards, but simply enclosed with them. In the alb
sence of postage stamps, three-cent coins may be substituted.
1t is believed that this circular has been drawn up so explicitly
as to require no explanations but should this prove not to be
the case, postmasters will take notice that all interrogatories
must be addressed to the Pacific Mail List, New York, and moi
to the department..
The first of this series of lists win accompany the mail of May
