EXTRAORDINARY STRING IMPoRTATIcNs.-
Such is the activity at the custom house, from
the extraordinary importatiops lust now. that
the employees of the government can hardly ret
through the work. Ii is said the average daily
receipts from duties at the New York custom
house since the first of the month have amount
ed to half million of dollars, and this. not
withstanding the average reduction of about 10
per cent. in the tariff since last spring. An in
come from customs at the rate of fifteen mil
lions month at this port alone shOwsthat there
need be no fear of deficient reve nue. Indeed
there will be, probably, a very large surplus
revenue at the end of the fiscal year. These en-
ormous importations show also the great wealth
and prosperity of the country, as well as the
extravagance of our people. We may antici-
pate very active trade throughout the spring
