With refptiSl to packages lent on withouc paffcnge rs, the proprietors prefiune they have adopted a regulation, whkk, tho.iyb unknown to other lines of flage*, they thinlc must meet with general approbarion> They pledge thern fcivcjs to make good every package on the fol lowing conditions. The person who delivers the package at tlir office fnall fee it entered ia the (hge-book, for which entry he fljall pay 6 cents ; he Will then itate the value of the pack age, and pay (exclusive of the carriage) one per cent, on the v due, as infurmc *, and for which Ue will receive a receipt. Thus, for iaftance, il he eflimates his package at one dollar, he will pay one cent, and if at one hundred dollars, he will pay one dollar ini lira nee, and in like pro portion for packages of any other value.
