New issue of Postage Stamps.
A new issue of postage stamps may soon
be expe3ted. In design they will be uni
que. Introducing the national colors,
each series will typify a chapter in our
country's history. histo be hoped that
whilst they arcs beautifully allegorical they
will not lack that essential which has
been lost to the old ones, a bountiful sup-
ply of gum.
Kulanx Proclamation.
udge Russell, of the Superior Court
of North Carolina, has issued a proclama
tion commanding six members of the Ku
klux Itlan to surrender themselves to the
sheriff of Robinson county, or any other
lawful officer of the State, and authoriz
ing any citizen of the State to capture
and bring to justice these outlaws; and in

A (MEAT many friends of General Cus
ter, and mote who are only admirers of his
bravery without a personal acquaintance,
will be pleased to learn that he is safe
from all the " treason, stratagem and
spoils" of Indian war. Ile reports him
self still entitled to command La Pucelle;
and the report that he had been shorn of
his locks will undoubtedly stimulate him
to better deeds of derringdo than have
ever illustrated his career.

Last !Vi .Ii of a Dying Man
Mr. Eckerson, who died of hydrophia
at Saddle River, N. J., had to be held by
five or six. men, and during his lucid in-
tervals begged to kiss his wife, who was
very ill in another part of the house. A
short time before his last dreadful fit, he
pleaded so piteously to kiss her once more
before he died, and that risking the con
sequences, they took her to his bed. The
dying man carefully wiped the froth from
his face,,aml compressing his teeth tightly
to prevent any of the poison saliva exten
ding from his mouth, kissed the lips he
had so often pressed in love and affection,
and then resolutely turning away, after
bidding her adieu forever relapsed into a
dreadful paroxysm, and died.
Cattle Trade
Few people have an intelligent idea -of
the cattle trade of the United States.
Some interesting facts and figures on this
question were recently submitted before
the Social Science Association at Albany.
It was stated that the consumption of beef
in France was 910,000 tons; in England,
1,600,000 tons, and in the United States
2,000,000. One of the principal sources
of supply of cattle to the eastern States
And New York was Texas. When the
war broke out Texas had only 3,000,000
head of cattle; now there are 12,000,000
head of cattle in that State. The total
supposed value of all the cattle iu that
State was $10,000,000, and the total con
sumption amounted to 50,000,000 head.
In New York alone was $32,000,000
worth of cattle annually cousutned,besides
82,000,000 pounds of butter, valued at
$33,000,000; 72,000,000 pounds of cheese,
valued at $14,000,000 ; and 29,000,000
, gallons of milk valued at 57,000,000; a
total of $52,000,000.
The Nickel Coinage.
The bill before the House of Represen
tatives, in reference to a new nickel coin
age, provides that on or before Juno 1,
1869, there shall be issued from the
United States Mint the following pieces,
to be composed of copper and nickel, in
the proportion of not less than 25 por
cent. nor more than 33 per cent. of nickel;
a piece of one cent, to weigh one and one
half grammes (23 grains); a piece of
three cents, to weigh three grammes OR
grains) ; and a piece of, five cents, to
weigh five grammes (77 grains), with such
device as may be fixed by the Director of
the Mint, with the approval of the Score
- tarY of the Treasury. Such devices,
when adopted, shall not thereafter be
changed by , said officers ; and the pres
ent coinage of'one three- and five • cent
pieces, whether of bronze, nickel, copper
or silver, and the issue of the Treasury
notes of ten cents, shall thereafter cease.
' Any of the new coins are to be legal tender
in sums of one dollar in any one payment,.
The nd'sv coins are to be distributed in
like manner As provided for the present
coinage, which is to be called in under
,
such regulations'as may be made by the
Secretary of the Treasury. The bill also
provides ; for, the redemption in national
currency, in sums not less than fifty dol
lars, of the one, two, three and five cent
coins now 111 circulation.
