DEBT AND WEALTH.

Increase In the national debts and
the wealth of the world are keeping
pace with each other. and each is III
creasing enormously. according to the
recent figures given out by the bureau
of statistics of the United States treas
ury. During the last 100 years the ma
lions of the earth have increased their
debts tenfold. and the wealth of the
pc oples of the nations has advanced to
the same extent, says the New York
Herald.
AT the beginning Of the nineteenth
century the aggregated debts of the
world were about $500 900 600, to
which a cipher must be. added to get
the debts Of to-day. These figures are
more easily obtained than are those on
wealth. for little is known of property
statistics in most OF the countries, and
still less was known hundred years
ago. In $500 the wealth of the United
States, United Kingdom. France and
Spain was estimate at $20,2A4, $40, 600,
while Mulhall now places their wealth,
at about S195 300 600 900. With these

speedy recovery would follow. The
