The Chronicle of this morning announces new facilities in the

post- ing of letters- " On and after next Tuesday, letters may be posted half an hour later than at present, namely, till a quarter past six, at the branch-offices at Charing Cross, Old Cavendish Street, and the Borough, and till half-past six at Lom- bard Street, on payment of a lite fee of a peony each letter ; but in order to enjoy this convenience, the charge for which is only proportionate to the addi- tional trouble it will give the Post-office at the busiest time of its duties, it is necessary that all inland letters should be stamped, and that the fee of Id. should be paid by an additional stamp affixed to the letter. Foreign letters may be thus stamped or pre-paid in money, at the option of the sender. Any letters not conforming to tlas regulation, and posted without an additional stamp, must, of course, be metal as though they were intended for the next day's post."
