The Archbishop of Ireland receives IIS,

of England ar? paid from ?3,000 to
t'j,C<H) a year. The average pay it
a vicar in England is $8,500 outside
the large cities. In the cities the sal?
ary varies according to the wealth < t
the parish, from $8,800 to $10,0u0.
WHAT WEALTHY CHUKCHIS PAT.
The Episcopalians and Presbyterian?
pay larger salaries than any other ?I? -
nominations, but the pnlpits moat en
vied in the United States are those of
the collegiate lteformed Dutch Church
of New York city. There are seven or
eight churches of that denomination
under the same management ami sup?
ported from an endowment that is ex?
ceedingly rich. Its income is next to
that of Trinity Church, and am-mnts to
several hundred thousand dollars a year.
The pastors of the collegiate churches
are paid $10,000 for life and are allowed
to retire from activo pastoral work when
they reach the age of sixty-five years
Trinity parish is the richest in the
world, and has an income of about $ us), -
000 from buildings and other invest?
ments. It supports live or six churches,
several schools, hospitals ?ml other
charitable institutions and pays the
manager of its business a salary of $io,.
(MX) a year. The rector of Trinity
Ohutch rwoires $12, ,"?o0. The same sal?
ary Is paid by Ht. Thomas' ami St
Bartholomew's. I was. informed by
good authoi.ty that five clergymen in
New York city received that salary and
at least twelve-received $10,000 a jear.
The average pay of a clergyman in New
York city, excepting the pastors i f
mission churches, is probably $8,000,
The editorial profession is not n well
paid. There are probably sixteen edi?
tors in New York, not proprietors of
newspapers, who receive $10,000 n year
or over. The Journal and World have
four each, the Herald two. the Times,
Post and Brooklyn Etgle one each. The
highest editorial salary paid in the
United States is $15,000
Editoiial writers of recognized alnl
ity, city editors, news editors and man?
aging editors on the large daily papers
are paid from $5,000 to $7,500 a year.
PHYSICIANS ANH PROFESSORS.
A few physicians in New York make
very large fees. There are two or three
specialists whose incomes will exceed
$50,000 a year, perhaps ten make $25,
000, and perhaps twenty makes from
$15,000 to $20,000. Ten thousand dol?
lars a year is considered a large prac?
tice.
The salaries of onr college professors
do not compare with those of Europe,
although pnblic school teachers in the
United States are paid two or three
times as mnch. The teacher of an ordi
nary school in England, France, or
Germany, who makes $25 a month is
doing very well, bnt several chairs at

In rainbows half unrolled
We love'em, oh,we love'em for
The treasures they enfold.
