Out¬ side of the few Jewish bankers, such as the Rothschilds, and Herr Krupp, the great gun-maker, there are very few millionaires on the Continent of Europe. In Prussia, Herr Krupp has an income of 5 , 000,000 marks about $ 1 , 250,000 of our money, on which he pay? j$37 060 tax to the government. Noxt „ rrunoi Baron Rothschild, of F i a nkfort, with about $ 680 , 000 , and W! „ *roo Blcichreder, . , , whose , income • j 3 about $ 600 , 000 . There are only t wo*of her Prussians with an income ove: r $ 300 , 000 . We beat the world in millionaires. This is accounted for by the fact, that on the Conti¬ nent. the railroads and telegraph are owned mainly by tire govern meat, and the profits on transpor¬ tation aeorno to the benefit of the national treasuries. In the United St;lU ‘ s Uie i-ai!road and telegraph an- hi private hands, and the 111a iiipul.ition of their stocks, as well as the profits of the business, goes to pile ip the enormous fortunes pf our Jay Goulds, Vanderbilts, Gan fords, Huntingtons, Sages, not to mention the hundreds of others who have become millionaires as the result of manipulation in the stocks of corporation. It may be worthy of note, in passing, that wealthy real-estate owners, outside of the Aster family, are not very common in this country. Our laws provide for the breaking up of great. estates upon the death of the head of the house, and this puts a check to accumulations of landed wealtli in a few hands. But personal prop¬ erty, it, the form of the ownership of shares in corporations, can be better kept together in this country 7 , and it will be noticed that in the wills of Commodore Vanderbilt and his son, Wm. II., provision was made for concentrating the wealth on one or two of the heirs, The Astor estate in New York has been held together, it is believed, by an evasion of the law regulating the discount of bonded property, But !he time must come when it will be scattered among all the heirs.— From Demorists Monthly for April.
