Or Intyasst to Persons HAVING Foreran Cor- RESYONDENCE —We learn at the Post Office Depart Inept thauton letters to Great Britain, whea apy sure Jess than the ful! rate (24 cents) is prepaid, it oes for nothing. For instance, on a single tetter, if lees than 24 cents (the regular rate) is prepaid; it is counted a6 nothing ; aod where, say five rates, are misiate when six should be charged, it still goes for nothivg. Formerly underan arrangement between the New York and Liverpool offices, whenever a ful! rate or more one single pac was paid, a credit for such full rate or rates was given, and the fraction of the rate which might be due was charged. Now, be- cause the New York office fluds it imprasticable to take note of all fractious of tbe rate, the British office insists that pocredit at all sba!l be given, uu- less the full postage, in each case, is-paid. In the Prussian closed mail each full rate of 30 ceuts pre-paid is duly credited on the letter or packet, and any fraction of the fuil rate disregarded -—baving any balance due to be collected on the other side. st It is important to look to this, and to the fact, also, that in ratit g letters for Murope, &c., postmas- ters are requivert to charge ‘ two rates for every ounce or fractional part of an ounce over the first ounce.” A MISTAKE IN A Nawe.—The Baltimore Sun this morning contaius a telepraphic despatch from Bes ton, with late Buenos Ayrean news, wherein the commander of the Jamestown (sloop of war) is charged with baving improperly carried off frou Montevideo to Rio (aud thas saved) a traitorous Commodore Coe, who deserted from the flag of Ur- quiza to the Buenos Ayreanx.
