Postal Money Orders and Bankers.

A clerk Of one of the business hous-l
es of this city was sent cut recently
to enquire the priceofa draft of s., 800
on California. He ascertained that
it would be three per cent. or S144.
His principal directed him to go to
well known banker to see if better
terms could not be obtained. The
clerk, installing the name given him
called on Postmaster Kelly, and was
informed that his money could be sent
by postoffice orders for S24. This
was an unexpected condition of af.
fairs money orders had not been
thought of; but after due considera-
ton the sum it was proposed to send
to California was forwarded by means
of these orders The rate was just
one half of one per cent.-N. w.

Dedication of a Rebel Cemete ry.

A special dispatch to the Cincin-
natl Gazette says that Stonewali
Cemetery, for the reception of the
rebel dead in the valley of Virginia,
waslinaugurated at Winchester last
Thursday, with all the ceremony and
cclat with which the inhabitants Of
the region could invest the occasion.
The remains of General Ashby
were brought and deposited in the
new Cemetery. Moseby and Hoff
acting as pail bearers. Nearly three
thousand rebels are buried here.
Henry A. Wise delivered the ad-
dress. His allusion to the cause of
the Confederacy as not being lost,
saying that it was only the means
that had temporarily vanished, was
greeted with cheers. Wise attribu-
ted the loss of their cause to the inn
becility of their Government.
The pastor of the only Union con-
gregation in Winchester was notified
that his presence would not be toler-
atcd. Union people and freedmen
were compelled to keep themselves
secluded on pain of personal vio-
lence, and rebels staggered toward
the excursion trains which brought
the crowd homeward, asking to be
shown yankee to kill.

UARPER's MAGAZINE

HARPER's MAGAzlNE.-A recent
number of Harper's Magazine con-
tanned some interesting statistics re-
garding the cost Of the production of
that widely known periodical
Twenty and quarter millions of
copies have been printed. The sep
arate sheets would cover path two
and a half feet broad and 4,40o miles
long. They would carpet almost
$1,000 acres and each sheet is print
ed on both sides, so they contain
$4,000 acres of printing. The plates
for single number Of the Magazine
cost about $4,000. This includes the
sum paid for editors, contributors,
artists, engravers, compositors and
electrotypers for one number. If
only one thousand were printed,
this would be three dollars for every
copy. Five dollars would be as lit
tie as any one number would cost to
buyer and at this rate the aggregate
profit upon one thousand copies would
not be enough to warrant any one to
produce them. If ten thousand
COPE, were printed, this cost would
be reduced to thirty cents a copy
Then each copy of the Magazine
might be sold for dollar. But if
one hundred thousand copies are
printed from the same plates, this
cost Of So, 900 amounts to only three
cents on each copy, and the Maya
zine can be produced ut its present
rate.

was enacted at Berlin on the morn

officer ofthe Cuirassiers, who had re-

entered her salon in his full uniform,

off his helmet and put it on q small
table in front of the fire as, notwith.
standing all the enthusiasm of the
population, the day was excessively
cold. By some sudden movement,
however, the young officer upset the
table, and the helmet rolled into the
