Hello xiaolin
"Serpent" is a snake in French. The street has been named like that for the simple reason that it is not straight, but "snakes" in curves, like a snake or a letter S.
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rue_Serpente
The letter is addressed to Geneva in Switzerland.
According to the Yvert catalog, the six (not five) pointed and dotted star postmark is a common postmark on early French stamps. Number 25 is the post office number for rue Serpente.

Hello Mr. Jean Philippe
thank you very much for your help,
Recently, I have been busy with work and have not been here for a long time. Yesterday, I browsed the forum posts and benefited a lot.
This forum, I recommend to my Chinese friends, Asian friends.
I have registered a lot of philatelic forums, but some forums don't have crowds, and some forum posts are few. I feel that in this forum, members are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, I really like it here!
Greetings
Xiaolin
