The interests of this famous New York family are 80 numeroas and 80 extensive, so widely distributed sad go varied in character, that as landlords they hold sway over all classes of so ciety, occupying every kind of stroo- ture. Then, too, the Astors are typical in that no sentiment enters into the man- agemont of their propertivs, and, after all. this is troe of the management of most real estate in this city. As landlords the Astors demand the market rate for rents, and they demand it the first of every month oF quarter, | as the cass may be. Sooner than make | material ecmesssions in the amonnt to be paid on a lease the Astors will aliow | a house to remain vacant, nod one sea sn or year only, but two, three or more venrs, and i then a good tenant | is pot at band the Jui iding will be al- tered, provided tid condition of the neighborhood requires it. It is appar ent. therefore, that the Asters get the fignres they ask. These are not the high- ! est paid, frr the states take no risks, | but they are well op 10 the average. : No sme possibly recnires npore assur- ance of respomsiliinty in tenants than the Astars Befocuces as to character aud finsncial standing must be {orth- eanring if yon would be sn Astor tenant, and they mast be more than paper ref ercpvos, for they will bo investigated | carsfully If yom are snknown or can not show who you are asd what you!
