N.B. — Dtjnedin Cup will open Ist January, 1883. A DA MANTUA has very great pleasure in _oL stating that the local in the Evening Star of Wednesday concerning registered letters was only partially true, to this extent — that about three months ago about fourteen letters were compulsorily registered by the Postmaster in Auckland, containing notes, on which he levied Is each, which Ada refused ; the consequence being those letters went to Wellington, and the money was refunded to the senders. The local refers to Ada only ; the same operation was performed upon the Fidelity Company and the " Zoo Jumbo " Consultations. Tho statement that' all letters were compulsorily registered from Auokland or elsewhere is incorrect ; the case above mentioned is the only occasion. The Post Office do not compulsorily register except they contain coin ; but subscribers should send P.O. orders, this being the safest and easiest mode in transmitting money, for in event of loss can be traced.
