After the first 10 words tihe charges wfll increase at a rate, per word instead of per 10 words, and 25 words as hitherto.

Instructions as to the deUvery of Telegramsj whether by post, special messenger, boatj or otherwise wfll be telegraphed by the officer in oharge of any station, to the receiving station free of expense to the sender of the Telegram. These instructions together with the charges made, wfll be written on the back of the Telegram and signed by the sender. When such instructions are included in addresses or Telegrams, they require to be ' signalled twice, and must therefore be paid once when written unnecessarily.
