nice example of a letter carried by private ship from Liverpool to Philadelphia in 1859. The 6 in octagon indicates the port to port rate used on mail carried by private ship, rather than a treaty mail ship, such as Cunard or Collins.. This letter was carried on the private ship "Emma", from Liverpool to Philadelphia.
