I'rrba the atatiatlciana know or cu Snd out, but It is not certain that the statlatlral answer would give the Infor mation that one really w ant and which Involve the ilintrllmtion of wealth aa well aa its mere existence. Mot Amer icana have to work; but, as ia well known, a considerable proportion t Kngliab Hiple toil not nor spin, and make no pretense of doing anything tor living. I that la-caiiM the Kngliah are riiin-r than we, or ia it a matter of taste or a result of primogeniture Ho also il apis-ara from cbae at inly of document submitted by Anthony Trol lope and other contemporaneous histo rians tlmt Hritisb gentlemen in re apertahle circuuistaneea employ from Bra to fifty servants and bare several bonaeaapiite, all of which they live In, and travel much heidea. An Ameri can who lives in that way la looked npom as a man of very exceptional re aourrea, but II would seem that an Eng lish gentleman who does not live in that way ia tlioui(lit to be somewhat strait ened. In KnglatHl there are 300 or 400 bunt tiuli. and something like 20,000 Ilritisliera ride pretty regularly to bounds. Out hunting Is an expensive sjiort that tnkea both time and money. These Kngliah seem lo have both lo spare. A returned traveler waa speaking of the shoals of agreeable English jieople be met In the Itivlera and in all the I play plaree of southern Euroie. When asked if they were rit b people, he aaid not, but that they were able to live aa they did because they knew bow and got their money's worth. He thought, too, that the well to do English bad a more complete domestic apparatus ready to baud than mint Ameiicaus and could spend a larger proortion of their IncoiiK on travel and amusement, llouaee and furniture and such expen sive vanities they had already by in heritance and were not comiel!ed to spend useful money In providing them. Heiiarding the English habit of pub lishing novela iu three bound volumes would the American buy novela in such coat It form? Are not all the hahita of living that wa borrow from the British, from dock tailed bona to Indoor men servants, more oetly than the customs they superacdu? Tiny must have a great deal of money lo aiiend, those enterpris ing Islunili r. No one would hesitate lo say that the Americana ate richer than the Kumians, or the Italians, or the Germans, or even the thrifty French, but the Hriton givca ns aiiM. Is be really richer Ihnn we are, or is he mere ly an older son, and a dweller in a luud where aervsnta work for small pay, and clotliea are cheap, and novela are rented out by Minlle, and the tax on etiinulanta ia laid for revenue, and Dot for prevention, and where to loaf and Invite one's soul is esteemed a prefer able thing to toil?
