A Curious' Calculation. The dimensions of heaven seem to worry some people. Thay arc evi dently afraid there will not be room for them up there. If the calculation below is correct there need he no fur ther apprehension felt on the point. The main question is getting there. The twenty-first chapter of Revela tions gives the measurement. The most interesting calculation on the subject is that of Captain J. B. Shar key, a measurer of vessels in the Bos ton custom house. He takes the statement in Revelation xxi ami fig ures it out thus: “And he measured the city with the reed, 12,000 fur longs. The length and the breadth and the height are equal.” Twelve thousand furlongs—7,920,000 feet Cu bed — 497,793,088,000,000,000,000 feet, iteserving one-hal f of th is space for the throne and court of heaven, and one-half of the remainder for streets, we have 124,198,272,000,000,- 000,000 feet cubic. Divide this by 4,096 cubic feet in a room sixteen feet square and there will he 30,321,843,- 750,000,000 rooms. We will now suppose the world always did and always will contain 900,000,000 in habitants and that a generation lasts 314 years, making in all 2,970,000,- 000 centuries, and that the world will stand 1,000,000 years, or 10,000 cen turies, 29,700,000,000,000 inhabitants. Now, suppose there were 100 worlds like this, equal in number of inhabi tants and duration of years, a total of 2,970,000,000,000,000 persons, there would be more than 100 rooms 1(5 feet •square for each and every person. The time for raising the 850,000 in Savannah, to secure another railroad, has been extended to the 1st of July. .Savannah ought not to let this oppor tunity pass. And we do not believe she will. There is too much at stake. Whither we are Tending. The eloquent Patrick Henry said: “We can only judge the future by the past.’’ Look at the past: When Egypt went down, 3 per cent, of her population owned 97 per cent, ofherweath. The people starved to death. When Babylon went down, 2 per cent, of her population owned all the wealth. The people were starved to death. When Persia went down, t per cent ol her population owned the land. When Rome went down, r,8o8 men owned all the known wor'd. For the past twenty years the United States has rapidly followed in the steps of those old nations. Here are the figures: In r8so capitalists owned 37I per cent of the nation’s wealth. In 1880 they owned 63 per cent. Henry—Yes, Carrie, I love you with all my heart. Carrie—It seems strange, Henry, that you should think so much of me. Henry—I don’t know about that. There’s no ac counting for tastes^'ou know. Hunt& Voorhees, 179 READE ST., N.
