Timbre Post / LP		London Philatelist Jan 1892: Jamaica Postal Notices By E. H. Bacon. The HE number of the Timbre-Poste for November last, contains a review of the Philatelic Society's recently published work on the stamps of the British West Indies. The Editor of that Journal is recognised all over the world, and justly so, as one of the greatest authorities upon all things appertaining to the science of Philately, and our Society may well be proud of the highly eulogistic terms in which he speaks of our latest catalogue. The review is specially interesting, as the writer gives translations in extenso of four important Jamaica postal notices, which are not found in my "Preliminary Notes" at the head of the Colony. As I stated at page 89 of the catalogue, the only file of the Jamaica Official Gazette I could find in this country, commences with the number for June 3rd 1869, consequently I was unable to furnish any notices of an earlier date than this, from that source. Three of the notices translated by Mons. Moens were published previous to the year 1869, while the fourth, which is dated 1st April, 1879, for some reason or other did not appear in the Official Gazette, although it was published in, at any rate, one, if not more, of the local newspapers. Mons. Moens, in reply to a request I made him, has kindly sent me the original copies of the notices he received from Jamaica, which I now reproduce here for the benefit of those collectors who may not have seen the number of the Timbre-Poste. I have drawn attention to.

	Extract	7. In connection with the falling off in the revenue from "Postages" I would also add that on the 1st May last the "scale of progression" on Inland Letters exceeding one ounce in weight was altered and made to be by the single rate of half an ounce rather than by the double rate of one ounce. This alteration was made under the terms of the "Post Office Law Amendment Law of 1886," which also altered the surcharges on wholly unpaid and insufficiently prepaid correspondence, to the extent of making any Inland Letter, Newspaper or Book-packet liable, if wholly unpaid, to double the ordinary rate of postage, and, if partially prepaid, to double the amount of the deficient postage.
