The WEALTH OF BosToN.-A Boston corre-
spondent writes to the Chicago J0urndl.-
During the past ten years the Hub has in
creased in valuation nearly ninety per cent,
its debt sixty per cent, and more than two
hundred per cent. in the amount of tax raised,
and yet the taxes are advancing in an alarm
ing ratio. In 1860 the valuation was $276, S61,-
OO0; it is now 1854, 0S9, 400 The increase
during the past year is $14, ,262, 100,
not including the new Dorchester Dis
trict, but there has been a de-
crease in personal estate of S6, ,452, 900, in
consequence of many of the wealthy citizens
Withdrawing from the city previous to the
first of May to escape taxation. There are
twenty one parties assessed on over 6 600, 600
each, the trustees of the Sears estate taking
the lead, So, 199, 800. Boston is probably the
richest city per capita in the country, and
also one of the heaviest taxed the interest
and the premium alone due 1901 being
81, ,072 600, and the net debt S12, 6O2, $50. But
when one speaks of the valuation of Boston
at 1854, ,0S9, 400, it by no means represents
the wealth of the city. The assessors do not
include in their valuation the public buildings,
squares, and other property owned by the
municipality, while the legal exemptions en-
brace $64, 200, 900 werth of churches, to say
nothing of the United States securities,
shares owned by individuals in Massachusetts,
corporations, taxes on which are collected
elsewhere and credited there Thus q vast
amount of property escapes taxation. 1t is
estimated that the residents of Boston
represent an aggregate wealth of over
one thousand millions of dollars, and if
all the people who do business here
resided in the city the population would
be rising four hundred thousand But
the suburbs are to all intents and purposes a
part of the city they are the sleeping places
of those who really give activity To the
'Hub." The contemplated improvements in
the city will involve many millions of dol
lars. The rate of taxation has been fixed at
$3.50 per $1,000. If it's wealth were equally
divided, every man. woman, and child would
have $22ss each. A large proportion of our
population would not object to such a
''divvy."

DAY AND NIGHT IN SWEDEN. peculiari-
ties of the day and night in Sweden strike
the traveller very forcibly, after being accus-
toned to the temperate zone. In June the
sun goes down in Stockholm a little before
ten o'clock. There is great illumination all
night, as the sun passes round the earth to
the North Pole, and the refraction of it's rays
is such that you can see to read at midnight,
without any artificial light. There is noun
tain at the head of Bothina where, on the
21st of June, the sun does not appear to go
down at all. The steamboat goes up from
Stockholm for the purpose of conveying those
who are curious to witness the phenomenon.
1t occurs only one night. When it reaches
the horizon-you can see the whole face of it,
and in five minutes more it begins to rise.
At the North Cape, latitude 70 degrees, the
sun does not go down for several weeks. In
June it would be about % degrees above the
horizon at midnight. In the winter the sun
disappears, and is not seen for weeks; then it
comes and remains ten or fifteen minutes,
after which it descends, and finally does not
set at all, but makes almost circle around
the heavens.

chiefly in the domestic and internal move
ments of the republic, in European conflicts
and civil wars for the establishment and
maintenance of the balances of power, re-
quiring every ten years to be re-established
at the cost of treasure and life. Who can
blame me that I, invested with no power,
and no longer. if ever, ambitious, lift up my
thoughts habitually to the great problem of
the civilization of the American continent,
and the establishment of peace, prosperity,
virtue and happiness throughout and among
the multifarious people to whom, to me,
God seems to have committed the execution
of work greater, and to the achievement
of destiny higher, than ever before was
appointed to any portion OF the human
race? Who can blame me for dreaming that,
in the pursuit of this study, with careful OBJ
servation at home and diligent observation
abroad, am content and happy? But my
friends these words, which to home will seem
a rhapsody, like that of Paul in his audience
with Agrippa, must have an end Here wish
to express my gratitude and affection to you
all; my best wishes and desires for the reali-
zation of your highest hopes. l ouly regret
that cannot speak these last words in the
hearing of all the people oe the Pa3if,
Coast. l trust that the same kind Providence
which has watched SO bene6cenuy over us all
may permit me to see you all again. 1t will
be happy for me if that meeting should be
vouchsafed to us here on the shores of this
beautiful bay, happier still for me, if it shall
be within the rustic gates of my own quiet
home at Auburn. That is the only place in
the world where l am able to reciprocate the
hospitalities and kindnesses with which my
way through life has everywhere been
crowned.
FAREWELL.
The Pacific Mail Steamship Company s
wharf was covered by crowd of people yes
terday just previous to the sailing of the
China. Among the crowd were a number of
our most prominent citizens, who had gone
thither for the purpose of bidding farewell
to Mr.. Seward, and wishing him a pleasant
voyage. Mr.. Seward and the party that ac-
companied him reached the ship about half
past IL o'clock, and Immediately proceeded
to the ladies' cabin, where Mr.. Seward held
an informal reception, shook hands with his
friends and bade them adieu At 2'10 the
steamer cast loose and pushed out from the
wharf, and in few minutes Mr.. Seward ap-
peared upon the quarterback, and with un-
covered head bowed his Acknowledgements to
the cheers that went up from the throats of
the assembled multitude.
