sometime during the Summer. The
business is, the institution is not suific-
iently endowed, And in view Of the
wealth of the Methodist Church Of
Indiana, it is disgrace TO leave the
professorships of the institution go beg
ging for the want Of good salaries. The
man of talent in this country cannot be
hired on an annual salary OF $500,
800 OF even $1,000. Men Of enterprise
can make more in almost any depart
ment of trade. Instead OF giving from
$500 to $1,000, this institution should
give its professors from $1,000 to 1880.
Rev. Z. II. SABrK. beloved by many
of your readers, by his devotion to his
calling, is doing much good. Having
native talent, by close application he
is taking his stand among the first
ministers of this country. He always
stood among the first as a faithful and
devoted pastor.

At indianapolis all is noise and con
fusion. Railroads give everything an
impetus, and it will not do to move
slow here. The price Of real estate is
very high-ruinously high. 1t is sadly
injuring the town. Lots are 500 PEI
not nearly all over the city. And store
rooms rent from $1,000 to $4,000 pei
annum. The price Of lots is prevent,
ing men from buying and building
or il they attempt ii, the price Of the
lot absorbs so much Of his active CAPT
tai that he cannot build or do business
unless he is rich enough to live without
business.
And IL n man rents, he pays high
and has to charge il on the profits o
what he sells, and in this way goods
are high. ana trade is driven from the
city. Some contradict this. but il is a
conclusion any one must arrive At
Real Estate is too high for the pros
perity OF the city in any particular
The large real estate holders are nom
inally benefited, but the fictitious valu,
at which lots are held will do no good
except they may enjoy the reputation
of being rich.
We could enter this complaint o
other cities, and particularly Of New
York. 1t is driving the business t.
Baltimore, Philadelphia and Boston
where the price Of real estate is more
reasonable. g. r. CLARKSON.
