performed by the National Bank Note Company of this city. The cost of manufacture
to the Government has been lessened by the
recent contract. The business of furnishing stamped envelopes isin the hands of
other parties. :
WHAT IS DONE WITH THE STAMPS.
For obyious reasons it is manifest that
the number of stamps to be used during the
coming year will show a marked decline
from those of last year, which amounted to
nearly 216,000,000. The yearly increase
has lately averaged 19,000,000. It is estimated that the number required for the
fiext year will reach two hundred millions
—thus throwing Off the usual increase, and
sixteen millions in addition, on account of
the seceded States. .
Over ten millions of the various denomi.
nations have already been furnished to the
Government, and the manufacturers are
producing them at the rate of 1,300,000 a
day.

A FAIR BRITISH ESTIMATE.
‘The Cornhill Mazazine for August, has
the following:
The Northerners are entitled to more sympathy than they have recelved from the
most infiuential part of the English press.
They are fighting for an object of realim‘nertance. If they were to fight at all, now
is thet ‘time, and they have received for
many years pasta series of provocations
of the most exasperating kind. o advise
‘brave and high spirited men td permit, or
not to resist the forcible, wrongful destruction of institutions to which they rightly
attach the highest Value, onthe ground
that itis extrethely difficult to maintain
them, is what men who recognize theclaims
of courage and spirit ought to be loth to do.
That tbe North has tight onits side there
can be no doubt. That it has sustained
grievous wrongs and insults, is equaily
plain. Surely it is rather a qrestion for
them than for us, whether there is a reasonable prospect cf redressing those wrongs
by the force of arms. A ration, !:ke an individual, may easily overrate difficulties.
Itis by no means clear that the tone of
the South will bes? haughty asit is at
present, or that their determination to resist, will be unanimous after they have fet
. the weight of the Northern army. There is
ro doubt a superabundance of the very fiercest kind of talk and of protestations of
unflinching eohstaacy ; bni it by no means
. follows that it would survive the horrors of
i battles and sieges, and the awful p~espect of
scrvile insurrection. Atany rate no one
can know whether it will or not until they

A Savace Race.—In “Glimpses ‘of Batanga and Gaboon,” we find mention of a race of
savages remarkable fot their energy, strength,
and slight but picturegqte attire. A group of!
them strolling down Moutgemery or Washington strect would make a Jecided sentatior.—&.
F. Journal.
The Pangwes, in some respects, are very rotharkable people; among savages I do not know
that I have ever met men of more imposing bearing. Their form form is indicative of
‘strength and energy rather than grace and
beauty. Their statue is of medimm size, bat
compact and Yell proportioned, aud their gait is
alike manly ana@ independent. The complexion .
of both males and females is two shedes lighter
than that of the maritine people, and though
decidedly African, are decidedly regylar. But
their hair, and the mode in Which it is worn, is
perhaps the most striking characteristic about
their appearance. It is softer than the nual .
negro hair, and is usually plaited in four braids,
two of which are worn in front and two back
over the shoulder, and frequertly reach more
thai half way down the back. At the same
time their bodies are smeared over with a red
ointment, which ieightens the singularity of
their appearance to a remarkable degree. They
wear no clothing except a narrow strip of dark
cloth between ikeir legs.

broad-Lladed dirk or knifs, in a sheath of suake
or guana -kin, is attached to a leatherr thong
tied round the middle. A hatchet of peceliar

RemarkaB_e Facts.—The piles under the
London Bridge have been driver five hundred years, and an examination of them in
1845 showed them to be but little decayed.
Chey are principally elin. Old Savoy Place,
in the city of London, was built six hundred
and fifty years ago; and the técden piles,
consistinh of oak, elm, beach and chestnut,
on 2 recent exani'nation, were found to be
perfectly sound. Of the durab‘lit) of timhec {n'a wet state, the piles of the bridge
built by the Emperor Trajan over the Darube, afford a striking example. Onc of those
piles was taken up and found to be petrified
to the depth of three-quarters of an iach;
