Such is the activity at the Custom House,
from the extraordinary importations just now,
that the employees of the government can
hardly get through the work. 1t is said the
average daily receipts from duties at the New
York Custom House since the first of the
month have amounted to half million of
dollars, and this, Notwithstanding the average
reduction of about ten per cent. in the tariff
since last spring. An income from customs
at the rate of fifteen millions month at this
port alone shows that there need be no fear
of deficient revenue. Indeed, there will be,
probably, very large surplus revenue at the
end of the fiscal year. These enormous I'M
portations show also the great wealth and
prosperity Of the country, as well as the ex-
travagance Of our people. We may anticipate
a very active trade throughout the spring,
both in this commercial metropolis and all
over the country-NeW York Herald.
