THE PRICE OF LAND

Our evening cotemporary perhaps Is
right as to the cheapness Of land. here
abouts st many suburban points, which
in the speedy future will prove as eligi-
bly, located as those which have been
held at the high prices upon which we
have animadverted. We do not quarrel
with any mans right to do what be
will with his own. If a proprietor is
able and disposed to lock up property
20 which he has the title, to the detri-
ment of himself and the public, it is
necessity. from which there it no appeal,
to acquiesce.
As in the case of every other com
modify, the legitimate regulator Of the
price Of real estate is the law OF supply
and demand. An enlightened. gene
rous and enterprising policy Oh the part
OF o capitalist will send up the value
and market price OF bis land. If an
owner asks T. higher pr,ce than buyers
can afford to pay with profit to them
selves, they may be forced to invest
elsewhere; and they have 'all the world
before them, where to choose, and Prov
ilence their guide"
There 10 O deeper principle than a
mere matter of dollars and cents under.
lying this question Of the obligations OF
men whom destiny has honored with
her selection rs the oraat couriers of
empire in q new domain. The tides of
population thronging to these new shores
aud requiring to be organized into the
harmonious and mighty forces that
propel the mechanism Of State, look
up to the pioneers Of their nations
civilization as tho representatives and
natural leaders Of enterprise. In the
judgment with which they are judged
of necessity enters somewhat of the
spirit Of the canon--uuto whom much
has been given. Of him shall much be
required. The most appropriate motto
for them to engrave on their family
crest would be the watchword Of the
old French suzeraign-''N oblesse oblige !"
1t is incumbent on those whom dcs-
tiny has endowed with means to super
add the quality Of creator to that of
fiducisry-to combine means to &C.
complisb ends, and to hold all subsi-
diary resources only as contributive to
the achievement of one grand consistent
result for the public good.
1t is the beautiful nature Of all good
ness and greatness that it cannot cop-
fine its influence within itself, but radi.
ates like the sun, rejecting its benefits
upon all that enjoy the advantage Of
proximity and association with it. 1t is
more to o town to have dozen citizens
of the right grit than million dol
