The slow process by which real wealth ac-
(umulates is illustrated in a statement read
before the congressional committee on labor
~ Mr.. Edward Atkinson, of Boston. He
|stimates that the wealth Of Massachusetts,
fter deducting the mort cages and other in
mbranccs on it. is 81 900 600 600 the pro-
ct of 200 years of toll and saving. The
hross annual product of all labor engaged in
manufactures, agriculture and fisheries in
Massachusetts, is estimated at maximum of
900, 600 and a minimum Of 5000, 0oO. 900.
i an average of S40o, 100000. This is a large
mount to be produced every year by the
Ibor of the people of a single State, aided by
bwerful machinery which immensely in
leases the productive capacity Of that labor.
Tut 1t Is to be remembered that the people Of
BE State must live as well as labor: they
Sust consume as well as produce; and when
keir living is taken out of their annual
foduct there is little left to be set apart as
wings. If we suppose the 100000 popula-
hn Of the State to be represented by 100000
MILES OF five persons each, and allow $1,000
year for the support of each family, We
I've an annual expenditure of Sf00,0 600, or
annual consumption of the whole average
Inual product.

cial condition OF that city: "The spectacle
presented to the country by the publication
OF tho city sheri1f's notice for the sale OF tho
real estate and other property of nearly 1000
citizens OF Charleston may well fill the minds
OF Its people with the gravcst reflections as to
the causes which have induced this wholesale
auction OF the city of Charleston. There
never was a period Of time during the past
fifty years when there was SO universal n
money famine among the people of the city"
