Id's opulutum wonld outgrow the .resources of subsistence is brought,to mind by an examination of the rvHJfnt ceneU8 on the "wealth of the United Btntes. This country la far Qhi.Qii rvf ull rvthoV ifili7al no. I tions in aggregate wealth. Specula tive economists might busy them i t - - selves in trying to find out what this wealth will feed on when it has reached its ni axi m u m; for th e va s t wealth of a country can be as sen- J ous a menace as a crowded popula-1 tion of the planet. The fact that this wealth in the United States is being concentrated within the hands of a few adds seriousness to the out look. Th assessed valuation in ioia;, atiuiuiut: iu me icufuo uuiii- i tin was 824,249,589,000, a-ainst against $13,902,9-93,543 of the census pre- . 1 . 1 Tinne -In 1X7(1 Mia vn np wfl X14. . 178,986,782, and in 1880 $12,084,- 560,005. Of course, the tjrue valua- tion is much above these assessed valnes. The computation of the actual values tor the last census is not completed' butwill reach $62,- 610,000,000, nearly $1,000 for each inhabitant. Next to the United States the wealthiest country is the United Kingdom. The census is now be- ing taken and no accurate figures for the purposes of comparison are at hand. But, taking into consider- ntinn n refifinnflhlfl rpr pent, nf train 5o,ooo,ooo,ooo is a safe approxi- mate. In the same way France's - I a 1 i wealth nf8y beaaid to be $45,000,- 000,000, Germany's $35,000,000,000, Russia's $25,000,000,000, Austria's $20,000,000,000 and the wealth of Italy $12,000,000,000.

Whatever the phenomena are that are tending to the increase of wealth in this country, they seem to be widespread and not confined to us. But, in the direction of the con- tralion referred to, as it applies to the United Spates, lies a peculiarly interesting inquiry for us. George.

A Pointer for Our Peopb ' Wilmington Star. The New Berne Jonrn il announ 3es the arrival there of a car load of horses and mules, but slates that the entire lot were from Western North Carolina. Now this souuds better than Tennessee or Kentucky stock. If our eastern planters will buy horses and mules instead of raising them, it is not so had when the slock is furnished from Wes tern North Carolina farms, for that helps the western North Carolina stock raiser along, keeps the money paid for them in the State and helps North Carolina. But horse dealers can't buy North Carolina", stock to sell to North Carolina planters un less the stock is raised in the State and sold as cheaply as Kentucky and Tennessee can sell. Adapted as central and western North Caro Una are to grass and grain, culture, there is no reason why stock can't be raised and sold at a profit as low or for less noney than Kentucky or Tennessee can do it.
