MAILS FOR HOME
DIRECTIONS TO FIRMS. (Special to the Times.) WELLINGTON, September 5. , The Postmaster-General is issuing a poster announcing that letters for the United Kingdom are forwarded by the San Francisco and Vancouver routes only, unless specially superscribed, and that persons and firms in the habit of posting duplicates to the United Kingdom, in order to avoid sending the originals and duplicates by the same mail, should subscribe the original letter “via San Francisco,” and the duplicate “via Vancouver,” and vice versa. The superscription of duplicates, "by -direct steamer,” if the originals are posted without superscription, will also serve to ensure the despatch of originals and duplicates by different routes.
