TIE POPULATION or THE LARGEST CITIES
The Mem0riai Dipionaiiq"e gives the fol-

suREs OF EooNMEY-FAors ABOUT Mr.. COOKE
1t is probably not improper that the public
should know that among the first stops OF
Jay Cooke, after his suspension, was to reSuce
the expenses of his private establishment
He lives, as many people areaware, in a very
large and handsome mansion. which he calls
o gontZ," at Chelen Hills, few miles out OF
Philadelphia, on the North Pennsylvania !.
He has about lSO acres in his estate, 4O OF
which he bought Just before his suspension
The property is very valuable, the mansion
being variouply estimated to have cost from
$500 600. to 81 900. 900.
MIR. Cooke has now closed up the greater part
of the house and occupies only few rooms.
H. had only a SIN Ill number of house servants
and dOmestics (about five or ak, it is stated)
before his mist srtune and most oil them have been
discharged. He had private gas apparatus on
the premises, by which the five hundred burners
in the mansion supplied. but this is now
unused and common lamps have been brought
into requisition. The large heaters in the cell
lar are also not in use. The extensive conser-
vatory and greenhouse are to be utilized, also
in behalf OF retrenchment. Mr. Cookies gardener
has arranged q partnership with Mr. Southwood,
the Philadelphia Tourist, and the flowers are TO
be sold in the regular course of the business in
that line. to an extent at least suihclont to pay
the wages of the men employed in that depart
ment of the estate
We learn that a Philadelphia gentleman re-
Gently inquired of MIR. Cooke, upon the appear
ance OF the statement of his affairs, whether his
private fortune was included. lie replied that
il was, certainly. Then, asked the inquirer, at
what price is it estimated At just one half its
actual cost answered Mr.. Cooke
II is the universal testimony OF all who are ac-
uuaipted with Mr. Cook and his family that their
private life was very free from any sort of osen-
tatlon. The large mansion. itself has always
been said to be well designed for public insti-
tuition, and persons in passing through it, have
| declared that it seemed Intended for one. From
this very prob lbly has grown an impression
that it was the intention of the owner to devote
il to some public or charitable object, ultimately.
He has never cared to have people visit it, from
mere vulgar curiosity, and when, upon the death
| Of his wife, few years ago. Hundreds OF persons
/ expected to present themselves, upon the usual
| public invitation in the newspapers, with the
| view of inspecting the great mansion. and enjoy
ing (?) grand funeral, they were dlrefnily DIS
| appointed The funeral was entirely private
The friends and relations were invited by letter,
| and no uDlic announcement was made.
