The New Stamp Currency.

The Post Cfficc Department has on an
average about five hundred thousand dol
lars worth of stamps in circulation. They
can issue one million of stamps day. the
value of which is about one hundred thous-
and dollars. AS the stamps are to pass
from hand to hand as currency. they will
of course become disfgured, and, therefore.
il is thought necessary that some new in
strument for cancelling them shall be used,
to the end that a strong impression may be
made upon the face Of the stamps. Pune
turing has been recommended. but is not
well thought of. for the reason that letters
frequently contain drafts and other valua-
pies. The stamps other than those that
are in common use are described as follows:
The FIVE ceut are chocolate color. with
the head of Jefferson; the ten cent. green,
with the head of Washington; the twelve
cent. black. with like head: the ,wenty-
four. lilac. with same head; the thirty.
yellow. with head Of Franklin; the ninety,
blue. with . portrait of Washington as a
young general. The stamps now in use
differ from the old ones in the fact that the
figures are in the upper corner.

q Telegraphing in the Old World.


The London Mechanics Magazine states,
that there are 10000 miles of telegraph
lines in Great Britain and that there are
$4,000 miles of submarine cable laid in
various parts Of the world. Between Lon
don and Algiers there are 600 miles of ca
bic laid at a dcbth Of LOO fathoms which
conveys messages regularly at the rate of
IA words per minute. There are eight
submarine cables in operation between Eng
land and the continent of Europe. These
contain thirty conductors. and are of the
aggregate length of 1000 miles. A won
derfull feat of tclegraphing was executed AZ
tclegraphic soiree given by Mr.. Quincy,
in London. on the 26th of last March. The
wires of different telegraph companies were
brought into Mr.. Gurney's house, and from
thence the Earl of SALISBURY sent Q moss
age to St. Petersburg, and received a reply
in four minutes An unbroken circuit Of
wire, 5 900 miles in length, was then FORM
ed to communicate with Verona, Berlin,
BRUSHES, St. Petersburg. Moscow. Trieste
and through this great distance the elec-
trio message was flashed in .he space OF
two seconds.

The sickly portion Of the state of Louis
lana is confined to the lower part along the
Mississippi river and the banks of the Red
river. The yellow fever visits New Or
leans nearly every year, from the middle
of July (seldom if ever before) to the be-
ginning OF November. but not always in
an epidemic or contagious form. After
the first Of July it is not safe for Mort hern
or any other not acclimatized troops TO re-
main in the city of New Orleans; they are
in danger Of being decimated by the dread
full disease. but they may then safely march
out of New Orleans. and encamp about %
or 80 miles above the city, on the uplands
along the railroad leading to Jackson
They may be sure that the rebel army will
not then rctake the city. for the yellow fe-
yer is even more fatal to them than it is to
the soldiers Of the Union. -
The above truthful statement will show
that the Southern states are by no means
an unhealthy. deadly country; if the sickly
regions are avoided. our brave. soldiers
may march. with perfect impunity, even in
the middle Of the summer, into the rebel
lious states and suppress this unholy re-
bel'ion.g The climate. then. will not affect
them any more than it does the rebel ar
my. and indeed. even less so. for it is a
confirmed experience that foreigners du-

climate Of the Southern states. even in the
less healthy regions than natives The

An Indian Anecdote.

Here is one:
Some time in the colony days, an Indian

things TO think about; darling investments,
collapsing corporations, stocks sliding to

You have followed it faithfully by day you
have run o crazy race for riches by night
your dreams have been of the glittering
goal Long ago, by some shrewd friend or
adviser, you were given distinctly to under
stand that b. get rich was the chief end of
your life. You have diligently needed the
advice, working like a bee through vast
ing gears, working your form into deform-
ity, hair off your head, and your face into
premature seams and wrinkles. BY this
time you have probably ceased to have
faith IN yourself as thinking creature,
with soul, and an eternity to make ready
for, and are satisfied that you have come to
be an accurate calculating machine, and
that you are accounted most sagacious
man of business, and magical maker Of
money. Work, w,RK. is the word for you
The world is great mine; you must help
work it, and must work hard too, if you
want the miners reward.
Well, good friend, you are a witness of
the woe this money now and then pours up
