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.
