) Postal Canls, wiia rniNTS tiikm and now it is honk. Tho printing of postal cards for tlio United Stntcs government has become nn Industry of considerable magnitude and wonderful improvements have been mado in tho machinery for producing tho millions of postal cards that aro consumed ovcry year. Wo copy from an exchange tho full particulars of the methods now In voguo in producing these cards, giving the process from the rags to the finished card t In a pretty ravino back of tho hill on which Caslleton, N. Y., stands, ten miles be low Albany, thero is a cluster of brick buildings, a tall smokestack, and a little brook that takes a seventy foot tumble over tho rocks. Up on the side of tho hill, in tho highest building, hundreds of tons of rags and paper pulp start t at tho bottom como out all the postal cards and registered letter receipts used in the United States, boxed up for shipment. Tho larger buildings aro tho paper mills of the H ort U ran go fapor Uompany, of wutob 0. C. Woolwortu, who lives in Secre- tary Manning's old houso in Albany, is President and Treasurer. lie has tho contract for makirg all the postal cards tho Government wants at 47.71 cents a thousand. Last year almost 400, 000,000 wero nsed, and the prico was, 54.43 cents a thousand. This year they begin a now contract, and tne company expects to mako closo to half a billion cards under it Tho mill has the usual paper-making machinery, with a capacity of six tons a day, Thero are three washing engines, four beaters, arid two Bets of rolling ma chinery. (Joe is used to mako posul card paper, and the other to do book work or any other of tho finer grades of paper making. From four to six tons of rags and a lot of paper pulp aro consumed every day. It is an odd thing that a large proportion of tho rags comes from ex-Alderman McQuade and tho people of the United States every time they buy a postal card aro indirect customers of he ox-Alderman. At tho paper mill they give McQuado a high character for furnishing good rags and for keeping his contracts. If the jury that tried him had been mode up from people in tho mill ho would not have been convicted. The postal cards are mado almost entirely from racrs. though occasionally a percentage of wood pulp is introduced. When the paper has been calendered it is taken from tho paper mill a few feet to tho postal card factory, in tho bis room of the postal card factory are a dozen men, two dozen girls, a large Campbell press, four small cutters aud one largo cutter, stacks of boxes, largo tables aud a web of gearing and belts overhead. The sheets aro taken to the Dress. where two feeders feed forty-four nliflnla M ... n 1 1-1 1 ducgw a ujiuubc itiuu pusiai caron every sixty seconds. The postal cards aro printed from steel plates so hard that there is not a file in the factory I.- :tt . : ... ., . bum win uju&u an liupiutsHiun on mem. Eaob card has a separate steel plate. and tho eighty that aro needed to make impressions on tho two sheets are wedeed in tho bed of the press. The plates come from Washington, and last two years without renewal. VVhen the company took the contract at a re duced rate they bad in mind several now inventions, the most important of wnien Mr. w. u. iiunce has been work ing over for four years. Mr. Bunoe is conneoted with tho firm of Woolworlh & Graham, who have the postal card contract. Two of his machines are in operation in an inner room under the onarge of Frank Shephardson. They print from tho roll, and turn out tha postal cards pasted in packages of twenty-five. The machine does it all. It prints the cards in the usual way of a rciary press auu to tho minutp. A set of knives outs the cards off. and they drop out of the press four abreat in little cells prepared for thorn. When twenty-five have dropped out a set of Bteel bogers turn the uackatro over. twines a paper band about it and pates the band together, after a pair of knives have clipped off enough band to go around a package A band covered with cloth buckets pi jks up tho pack ages ana laKes mera out into the mam room, where the girls pack them in boxes ready for deliverl v. An addition to ho machino is contemplated which will do its owo packing. There aro two of these machines, and one man can look after them both. He doesn't need to touch them except to put on a roll of paper. They cost $1,200 but new ones can be made for half the price. Another invention which they control is a box machine, which dis penses with the separtte glue pad and knife of the old style machine. The only man needed is a man to feed pasteboard. The machine cuts it, glurs it, and turns out a finished box at the rate of 7,000 a day. An addition to this machine is being made that will mako boxes from a roll of pasteboard as newspapers aro mado from a roll of paper. When all these inventions are in full working order it will not takp more than half a dozen men to look after them, and the only other labor J, ... . .1 . i . . . neeaea wiu ue ine cieiks wno address I he boxes and packages. There will be a good profit in making postal cards then, though tho price ha fallen from 239 3-8 cents a thousand to 54.43 last year and 47.71 now. Tho chief cost is the paper, which is worth about a quarter more than newspaper. The rags to start with cost 2 to 4 cents a pound. Tho postal card sells to the Government for about 9 cents a pound. All the rrst is paid to workmen and girls or goes as piofit. Twenty-eight girls and thirteen men, at an average pay of 81,50 to $2 a day, make all the postal cards. John O'Donnell, tho iorcman gets $2.50. After a highly successful career, cov cring a period of nearly two years, as a olerk in a Nevada, Mo., shoo store, Frank James, tho ex-bandit, has gone t- Dennison, 'lexas, to embark in bust nees for himself. It is not true, how. ever, as has been insinuated, that Mr. James has resumed tho practice of the bandit profession, for except iti the cases of men possessing great natural iiuimica in mm line, uio oanau uubi ners has been overdone. Tho cheap ncss of hemp and and tho profusion of irees uav, id a great measure, crippled its ueefulnet'S, and when these have failed, the hip-pocket pistol and the Deputy Marshal in monstrous boots havo intervened to render it inoongen ial. Mr. James will consequently en gage in a general merchandise trade, His capital consists of a pretty wide knowledge of human nature, several hairbreadth escapes from death and $2,500 in money, the prico received for tho little cottago presented to mm when ho went to Nevada to live. An im piovrd rifle, with which to pcrsuado cowboys that his prices aro reasonable, is aho numbered among bis htock of assets.

Tho bare, blank walls of a very old burying ground aro frowned down up on by flio towtrlng structures of manu facture and business that surround mid htm them in in ono of tho busiest parts of Philadelphia. Insido tho burying ground walls aro trees planted by men who died f roai old ago years age. Birds oomo and rear their wide-mouthed fam ilies in this cool oasis in tho great desert of throbbing city streets. One old man, bent and wrinkled, takes an occasional walk over tho scarcely dis cernible, grass grown paths, and his aro tho only feet that tread this silent city of tho dead. In tho Atch street wall very near tho corner an opening has been made. The bricks have been taken away for a space of perhaps a dozen feet. 1 (trough an iron fenco wbioh covers this open ing ono can get a glimpse of the peace ful grouuds within. That gravoyard was made long years ago aud the noisy city has grown all about it, crowding it and jostling it, but never encroach ing beyond its walls. From sun up to midnight there is a constant hurrying of wagons and cars and human beings by this necropolis. Yet that grated opening has seldom a visitor, though thero lies within a few teet of it the dust of a man whoso profound wisdom and humanity moved tho wholo civil ized world. Not three blocks away stands a great institution bearing his name an insti tution fostering all that is scientific and that lives to learn tho hidden things of nature's laws ; that fosters and encourages tho genius of men and teaches industry and the value of solid learning. Less distant in tho opposite direotion lies a great public square, one of those beneficial breathing-spaces of the city's pent-up masses, bearing his name. By its sido there runs a long, wide street bearing his name. And alt over tho city there aro mills and print ing shops and factories and foil rider ies bearing his name, while all over tho State and tho country there aro towns and townships and counties also boar ing his name. Yet there lio his bones down in the heart of this big city, with arteries throbbing with tbo work and pleasures of men, beneath a thin Btono slab, which grows greener and thinner year by year, obscured by the lightest snows of winter, the earliest grasses of summer and the first fall ot autumn leaves. A singular end of a marvel ous man ! I looked through the bars. With much craning of my neck and much pressintr of mv face acrainst the bars I mado out this simple, fast-fading in scription in tho thin marblo slab : ; Benjamin : : ani ; ; Deborah Franklin. : Benjamin Franklin, after many years spent abroad enlightening men, gain ing fresh wisdom and laurels, came home to live in quiet retirement with his son-in-law, Col. Richard Bache, at the old mansion, which stood in a large park on Market street, near Fourth, this city. Shortly after that ho wrote a friend : "I am now in the bosom of my family and find our four little prattlers, who cling about the knees of their graupapa, afford me great pleasure. I am surrounded by my fiiends and have a good daughter and son-iu-law to take care of me. I have got into my niche, a very good house, which I built twenty-four years ai;o and out of which I have been kept ever since by employments." Frank lin bad a small printing-press set up on one of the upper fioois of the house, with which he amused himself many an hour by his experiments. But so busy a lite was not destinod to bp pro longed in quietness. He had been settled but a short time when his life light went out on Saturday, April 17, 1790, when be was nearly eighty five. Three dajs later, now nearly a hundred years ago, his remains wero conveyed to the old f riend s liurying Gruund and placed beside lhot of his wife and the thin stone slab laid over them. There was mourning throughout this and other lands. Twenty thou sand peoplo crowded the streets around that old burying-gi'ound on the day of the funeral, and as the simple cortege passed over the few squares between the house and the grove bells through out the city tolled aud minute gnns boomod mournfully. Clergymen of the city of all denominations, the Su premo Executive, Council of the State, of whioh Franklin had been President; the State Assembly, Judges of the So pr me Court, members of tho Bar, the officials of tho citv, printers and their workmen, the Philosophical Societ'-, tho College of Physician, the students aod Faculty of the Philadelphia Col lege and many civio organizations at tended the funcra'. The pall-bearers were Gov. Thou. MitH'p, Chiof-Jngtine Molvean, Thos. Willing, Presid -ul of thu Bink of North Amerioi ; Major Simuel Powell, Wm. Bingham ami David Rittcnhnuse. Following tlo death and burial of Franklin came hon ors and eulogiums from everywhere. In Congress, Madison offered a reso lution which said : "Benjamin Frank lin was a citizen whoso nativo genius was not more an ornament to human nature than his various exertions of it havo been piecious to ecience."

Let school directors, teachers and scholars unite in making it a day for the adorning of tho grounds suiround ing tho school houses throughout tho Cemmonwoulth. Let tho peoplo of our towns and villages mako it a day for planting of trees nlong their streets. Let thu peoplo in our rural regions see to it that their highways aro beautified by tho planting of trees aud shrubbery in the ground surrounding their homes. Let the farmer seo to it that their waste placet oq their farm are turned THE COLUMBIAN AND to probablo account by tho planting of timber, nut and fruit trees thereon. Lot nil tho peoplo understand that upon tho general observance of this day, and tho prao'ical results which nriso there from, in largo measure depend tho con tinnanco of regular season? of rainfall, the tempering of our cllmate,the beauty of our homoi and highways, tho timber supply of tho future, and a remunerat ive return for labor bestowed upen lands not othcrwiso productive. Tho observance of Arbor Day is be coming goneral in many of our Stntes. Its necessity is recognized by Ihoso who havo given tho greatest caro and study to tho subject, and Its practical usctulness is aUcstcd by all who have engaged in it.

Not So Very Large- A rather good story is told at tho ex pense of Ira Shafer, the great legal ex pounder, of New York. Some live years ago Mr. Shafer had occasion to appear in one of the courts of Frovi dence, It. I. Of course, he appeared for the defense. As a New York at torney ho naturally put on a few frills, which did not endear him to the Court and the other attorneys in the least. Finally a ruling of tho Judge throw tho bumptious Mr. Shafer into a stale of mind. He expressed his opinion as to the provincialism of rrovtuence, and intimated that he was not receiving the consideration due a dir-tiugnished rt present ativo of the JNew lork nar. "hook here, Mr Shafer," sa'd the Judge, "we all un derstand that you are a New York lawyer ot distinction. New York is a big city, too; but if all tho rascals and shysttrs wero sent to the penitentiary, it wouldn't be a bit bitrtier town than Providence." Mr. Shafer's respoct for the Court was very much increased at tms point in the proceedings. SSMEDAIS-AWARBEDTK SwMcfiKiutlaiit URd.ralmOtr 1 osndlgf Dam!.
