TO persons mailing Letters TOR C~o1.tornia and The Ten
tories of WashingtOn and Oregon Thousands of letters sent
to the Pacific coast become dead letters. To remedy this evil
the Post Office Department, under the authorit. of Congress-
adopted as an auxiliary to its operations the following plan far
simultaneously publishing at each and every post office in tie
Pacific region, i'll a list called Z" Pacific Mail List" the names
persons TO whom letters have been sent by mail to post Offices in
California and the Territories of Washingtonand Oregon. By
this system, Il letter may be sent to any post Office in the IaCfc
region for Il person whose location is unknown, save n mere
fact that he is Somewhere in California or the Territaes d
Oregon and Washington if the letter be published in the Pafc
Mail List, its ultimate reception by the person for whom its
intended will be rendered highly probable. To enable those who
may desire to extend to their Pacific correspondents the adwn
tages thus offered, the following illustration is given:
Suppose it is wished to send to the Sacramento post ofcea
letter for George Wilson, who emi@Tated 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 letHrh
the Pacific Mail List, copy the address of the letter upon a
piece of paper or card, and enclose the card, together wiha
threecent postage stamp, in an envelope to the Pacific Nal
Last, \. Y. Deposit the letter, as USuGi, il the mail for Cali
fornia, and at the same time drop the envelope, Containing The
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 MAI List, which L printed a"d vuv+y ""H~
each and every postmaster in California and the Territories Oh
Oregon and Washington, and by them posted in a conSpcuoV'
place in their respective Offices. The list thus being distributed
over the entire Pacific region, George Wilson may at once learn
from it that a letter for him has been sent to the Sacramento
post office. No person of a similar name will receive the tWei
for the address on it points out that it is intended for U4ale
Wilson, late of Pike county, Missouri. Thus MANY letters VII
be received that would otherwise be transmitted TO the dead
letter Office. -
The envelopes containing the advertising cards sent to ths
Pacific Mail Last, New York, pay postage like Ordinary mar
matter, and must be prepaid. The addresses of iHkS copied
on the pieces of paper or cards should be written III a I00@sGt
distinct manner. The three-Cent postage stamp enclosed inle
envelopes defray the expenses of publication, and must not 6e
pasted 10 the cards, but simply enclosed with them. mteD
sence of postage stamps, three-cent coins may be substituted.
1t is believed that this circular has been drawn up SO eNpNatF
as to require no explanations but should this prove not hE
the case, postmasters viii take notice that all interrogatm3
must be addressed to the PGcifc AGiE List, New York, andH'
to the department.
9TH, and viii be forwarded by each succeeding mail.
