How the Richest MAN in New
York Spends HIS Time.

A correspondent Of the Rochester Demo
cYat sketches The richest man in New York
in this manner: .......s.... ..e.,rs
WIN. B. AsToR.--Mr. Astor's office is in
Prince street, near Broadway, where he may
be found daily between the hours OF 'nine
aud three" lie is large, stout built man,
with coarse features, stiff, rough, sandy col
ored hair, and cast of countenance of
very ordinary type. lie dresses plainly but
neatly, has somewhat careworn look and
appears to be fifty to sixty years of age. His
private office is OF moderate size and oil plain
furniture. On table are few books, and
on opening that one which appears most
thumbet, you preceive that it is volume of
maps of city property, carefully and elegant
ly executed, and, as whole, embracing the
sundries OF an enormous estate, estimated at
over S25,00O,0O0. Mr. Astor resides in
Lafayette Place. in one Of row OF dwellings
which twenty five years ago were the grand
est in the city, though now they are dis,anced
by the palaces of the Filth-avenue. Near by
is the magnificent library founded by his
father, to which he has added fund nearly
equal to the original endowment. Here he
spends small part Of his time, the remand
er being occupied by his duties in the Prince
street office, where, Sundays excepted, he
does full days work every day in the week
Thus the whole routine of lie of the richest
man in America is to walk to and from home
Of half mile and close attention to business.
The care Of Mr.. Astor's estate is q vast
burden. lie has several hundred tenants of
oil grades, from the $500 cottage to the
$4,000 store. To relieve himself Of this
vexAtious duty, he has committed it for
years TO an agent, who does the work well.
He collects rents and makes quarterly re.
turns, and thus pays over sum which would
be almost incredible, and which we may
roughly estimate at 100000 per annum. -
This man employees small army of painters,
carpenters and other mechanics, in order to
keep up repairs, and superintends the whole
Of this department. AS a large part of Mr..
Astor's property consists Of vacant lots
which are in continual demand, and gener-
ally has one or two large blocks in course OF
erection at time. This is a very serious
burden. His son John Jacob is quite a,busi.
pess man, and bears his share OF the load. -
Besides this. some fifteen years ago talent
ed and elegant young merchant (Franklin
Delano) married one Of The daughters, and
also affords assistance. In addition to these
abors, tbe attention to the collection ol
interests in bonds, dividends, &C., is a heavy
item, since in the little brick office (Which is,
Of course, fire. proof) there are several mil.
lions of Government and State secutities.--
His daily income is computed at $1,000
1t is said that certain person felicitated Mr..
Astor on his wealth. Pointing to his piles OF
bonds, maps, &C., the capitalist replied:--
"How would you like to manage all these
matters for your board and clothe-P" Tbs
man deinurred to the idea. "Sir," said the
other, "it is all get" Mr.. Astor, it is said,
gives but little away.

RTThc Republican majority of the Ohio
House of Representatives, the other day,
displayed their real attitude towards the
soldiers In the most unmistakable terms -
A bill was pending providing the way where
by the soldiers OF that State should be ena-
bled to vote. During the last days of the
tession the democrats made strenuous efforts
so have the bill considered and passed, but
the republicans opposed it by speeches and
motions, until they succeeded, by strict
party vote, in tabling ii, and, by the same
vote, refused to take it up. So the soldiers
Of Ohio are positively disfranchised. Such
would not have been the case II majority Of
these soldiers had been republicans, or II
justice dictated the policy of that legislative
majority. = Chicago Times.

one rIiIIion OF soldisrs.

We heartily concur with the following
remarks Of the Rochester IN. " Union.
Indeed, they are almost the very words
we used on the same point weeks ago
We must push this war on with over
whelming yigor.
"4s soon as the 100000 men are raised,
.disre should be draft Of not a man less than
500, 900 more Let these 100000 be ga
thered with all possible speed and placed
in the field ready for the fall campaign
Our effective force will then not exceed
a million. With a million of men our
armies will be able to penetrate the South
at all points; to seize and hold the State
capitals and all stragetic points; to make
the occupation of the enemy's country
self-supporting, because we should be
strong enough to take whatever is neces-
sary to make it so; and we should dis
hearten the rebels by the exhibition of a
force with which they could not hope to
cope. If we are determined to put down
the rebellion at all hazards, let us say so
by our aets-by putting forth all our
strength nolO, and doing up the job eifec-
tually. II otherwise, let us have an ar
mistice at once with view to negotia-
tions, for it is a crime which language is
powerless to define TO conduct the war
in the future as it has been conducted in
the past. This constant stopping for a
time and remaining on the defensive,
while we recruit our armies so as TO equal
the enemy's, is not only ridiculous, but
criminal"

language calculated TO provoke breach

and that notwithstanding he vas then
cautioned on the subject the same even

that he was cleaning his gun. He was

guage, and the costs on the other charge

The Latest Case of Southern ohlv-

airy.
A correspondent of the New York 7ri-
J'ne tells this story Of the battle with
the Arkansas:
John Goshen, engineer of the Lam
caster, was slightly scalded by the ex-
plosiOn of the mud-receiyer on Tuesday,
and in the confusion Of the moment step
ped overheard, and swan for the Louisi-
ana shore. Before he could reach land,
however, he found himself exhausted,
and being near the Arkansas, moving
slowly down the river, he struck out for
her and caught hold of her stern. He
had not chung there but few seconds
an object of pity and sympathy that a
Patagonian would have espected-when
a rebel thrust his rife out of a loophole,
and shot the poor fellow through the head,
scattering his brains over the surface of
the water.
81 heard this story az the time, but as
did not witness il myself l thought il
too reyoldngly cruel even for Seces %
ionist Since then | have been assured
Of the truth of the report by soldier
who was swimming near the engineer
when he was FOUL " murdered. The sol
der also says that the crew Of the Arkan-
sas fred upon him,and every man they OBJ
served endeayoring TO save himself la the
river. Is there aught too barbarous for the
boosted ohivalry of the South to commit;
Is there any limit 10 their inhumanity
Are they exceptions TO the laws Of justice
and the promplings Of mercy supposed
to govern, under certain pity provoking
circumstances, even the hereest Of saw
ages D."
