Revenue from Postal Cards. If the New York Times is correct in its figures, the postal card system will bo a vast addition to tba revenues of the Government. According to Postmaster Crcsswell the potsal cards cost the Gov ernment $1.86 per thousand. The or ders up to date have reached the enor mous amount of 25,000,000, of which ta cost to the people will be $250,000, and to the Government $34,000. Al lowing $16,000 for the additional ex pense of delivery which, wo presume, is a liberal allowance and the net ad dition to the revenue is 8200,000. This is within $10,500 cnoiigh to pay the sal aries of the President, his seven Cabinet officers, and the Justices of Supreme Court of the United States, at the ad vanced rates; it is twice the amount of the cost of the Tribunal of Arbitration at Geneva; it is nearly as much as tho cost of the national currency for ouo year; and it is twenty-five per cent, more than the cost ot the signal service for one year. The Postmaster General is confident that the demand, though it may drop off for a while, will bo steadily very great. GSSTEEAL KETCS. A remote ot kin lays claim to tho en. tire town ot Hickman, Ky.

The buildings of the Terre Haute car works cover three acres, and the ground eight acres. Columbus, Georgia, has built six cotton factories siucc the war, and has three more under way. A Mississippi river desperado was baried recently in a coffin made of some of the lumber he had stolen. The coming horse is reported to be a four-year-old bay gelding, called Ticon deroga, now in traiuiug near Roston. The latest addition to the list of ex- plosives is a blacksmith's bellows, which ; a few days ago "burst into fragments,1 at Pelham,N. II. A queer Dclawarean, by his will, di vided his property anions: his children, and left Iris bones to his enemies "to make whistles of." An Apache Chiefs, convinced of the I impropriety of polygamy, h-a fit Brigham Young an example by killing five of his six squaws. The New YTork horse-shoers, by their late strike, put their "foot in it." They are still idle, and their places have beeu filled by non-society meu.

A Bangor clergyman, last Sunday, alluded to the spriDg bonnets as "those incomprehensible huddles of finery aud frivolity which ladies place upon their heads." Incomprehensible buddlo is good, even for a clergyman. A Federal soldier is to be tried by the civil court at Canandaigua, N. Y., for the murder of his sergeant, both being members of the First Artillery, ten years ago. Several witnesses have been summoned from Florida by the Govern ment. Forty years ago, says bd exchange, Hon. Asa Packer arrived at Mauek Chunk, Pa., penniless, and all bis worldly property embraced in a handsaw aud jack-plane, which be carried with him.

A clumsily drawn ordinauce makes any man who shaves himself, in l)es Moines, Iowa, ou Sunday, liable to a fiue of$5.

"Are you not alarmed at tho approach of the king of terrors '! said a minister to a siek man. Oh, no ! I hava been liv ing .six and thiitv years with tho queen of terrors the king cannot be much worse.

'It is not generally known." remarks the Washington Star, "that Mr. Chase was the last of his line. Although he had six or seven brothers, none ol them had nialo issue, and all died befoie the Chief Justice. And as he died leaving no son, it follows that the line and name of Chase, to far a? his father's immedi ate branch of the family is concerned, became extinct with bis death." Mr. Colfax has written to a friend in Paris, a letter containing this emphati? and sanguine passage: "1 never received a dollar from Ames on any account whatever, in check, in cash, in stock, or nviaeiHJs or bonus.
