WEALTH OF ATLANTIC CITIES. —The wealth concentrated at the great commercial points of the United States is truly astonishing. For instance, one-eighth part of, the entire proper ty of this country is owned by the citizens of New York and Boston. Boston alone in its corporate limits owns one-twentieth of the property of this entire Union, being an amount equal to the wealth of any three of the Nev England States, except Massachusetts'. In this city is found the richest community, per capita, of any in the United States. The next I city in point of wealth, according to its popu latiolb-is Providence: R. 1., which city-is-one 14, 0 ;-ine ri t chest in the Union, having a valuation Of fifty-six millions, with a population of fifty thousand.

Salem, New Bedford, Buffalo, Chica go, Louisville, &c.—Bualon Tray. DIMENSIONS OF HsAvsx—Room FOR US ALL. —Some ,fellow who is go9d a t figures has cyphered out "a room sixteen feet wide" for every body that goes to Heaven. Here is the way he does it : 1- "And he measured the -city with the reed, twelve thousand. furlongs. The _ length and the breadth, and 'the height of it are equal. —Rev. 21 : 17." Twelve thousand furlongs. 7.920,000 feet, which being cubed, 496,763 - ,088,096.000,000,- 000 cubic feet. Half of this we will reserve for the Throne of God and the Court of Hea ven, and half the balance for streets, leaving a remainder of - 124,198,272,900.000,000,000 cubic feet. Divide this by 4.096, the cubical feet in a room, 16 feet square, anrthere will be 30,321,843,750,000,000 rooms. We will suppose the world-always did and always will contain 900,000,000 inhabitants, and that a generation lasts for 384 years, making in all 1,700,000,000 every century, and that the World will stand 400.000 years, making in all 270,000,000,000,000 inhabitants. • Then sup pose there were one hundred- worlds equal to this, in number of inhabitants and duration of years, making a total of 27,000.000.000,000,- 000 persons. Then there would be a room 16 feet wide for each person, and yet there would be room. ('Which is the best way to make a coat last ? Why, make the vest and tronserb first. 11:7"31116.
