Ho takes as of ealcnlation the value of the hous. s in the French capital; and upon these figures builds up his theory, on the assumption that tho less sixth wealthy of their inhabitant# income spend about one in house rent, while the richer houae-boldera spend on an average from one-eighth to one-tenth. It will is- cosy for those who agree with him to follow out. tho theory when they have the ftdlmviag list, of rents, as ex¬ tracted from an official source: It ap¬ pears that there are 10,000 private houses or apartments, the rents of which range from £160 to £820 a year, M(W hcfwccu €(20 aud £54.0, and 1 Ifsl between tho latter sum and £l,0ft0. Fimilly, there are 421 houses, or rather palaces, tho rent of winch exceeds ATJ.tvi. It is not neci-ssary to follow out the sums by which the incomes of- these various classes of rich men is traced out, but it may suffice to say that M.
