In the American colonies, informal independently run postal routes began in Boston as early as 1639. Officially sanctioned mail service began in 1692 when King William III granted a delivery "patent" to an English nobleman, By 1707 the Crown bought the patent back and began its own operation by an act of Parliament in 1711.
After the introduction of postage stamps in the UK A private carrier of New York City, established a "City Despatch Post" issuing stamps, bearing a portrait of Washington.After he sold it to the U.S. Government the government began operation of this local post on August 16, 1842 under an Act of Congress of some years earlier which had authorized such local delivery. The Act of Congress of 1845 established uniform postal rates throughout the nation authorizing the production of stamps in 1847.

the postage stamps and postal history of the Confederate States of America Initiated by South Carolina's secession from the United States in December 1860, the Confederate States of America (CSA) came into existence in1861 when seven seceding states came together to form a central government (4 other states joined later in the year). Each seceded first, then joined the CSA, yielding a short period, sometimes only days, in which the state was technically independent of both USA and CSA.

Although the Confederate government had contracted for the printing of its own stamps, they were not yet available on June 1, forcing postmasters all over the South to improvise.  simply  accepting payment in cash and applying a "PAID" handstamp to the envelope.  to regular stamps produced by local printers. Some are today among the great rarities of philately.
