The fascination which ' attaches to snccess again leads' our eye to the col umn of tax-payers, and we note tortne benefit of our readers a few of the most interesting names: Here is John Ander- Bon, ' the noted tobacconist, reporting $41,500 made out of the filthy habits of chewers and smokers. U. K. Coming, who is in the South American trade, has made $02,000. ' Eli Gharlier. who keeps the fashionable boys' school, is down for $27,000, and we may remark that the tobacconists find no encouragement in this individual, as he will take no pupil into his school who uses the weed. Among lawyers, F. B. Gutting is down for 859,- 000, and diaries U Conor tor $46,000. Delmonico's famous restaurant yields $68,000. which shows how oar rich young men spend their money. We pre sume the JJelmonico s receipts are $1, 000 a day during the festal season. Moses Taylor figures at $210,000.' He is a veteran merchant who. got rich in the Havana trade, and whose whole pro gress in lite has been a success. 1'ercy R. Pyne, formerly his clerk and now his successor, reports $43,000. The Platts are a fortunate family. Here are Isaac L. Piatt and his two sons, the latter be' ing active business men, the three re' porting an aggregate of $77,000. The Democratic banker, August Belmont, is set down for $90,000. i'eler CJooper, the great philanthropist, figures at ,000. "This sum is but little more than the interest on the splendid en dowment winch he gave to the public (the (Jooper Institute), which cost $600,' 000. Mr. Cooper is by trade a dealer in iron and a manufacturer ot neat s foot oil and glue, and his reputation on these articles is unrivaled. William E. Dodge has an income of $105,000, and his son, who is in business with him, reports $95,000. This is probably the largest sum of money ever made by any young man in the trade in this city in a single, year. J. he leather trade, as nsual, stands high,' and Isaac Corse, of the swamp, is rated at $81,000. David Dows has made $127,000. He has been for years a large operator in flour, and has been unusually successful. To show the profits of real estate men, we quote the income ot hi. tL. .Ludlow, the great real estate auctioneer, at $59,000. The sugar refining business has been rather unprofitable ot late, tor Kobert JLi. btu art has only made $43,000, while the Places have gone into bankruptcy. In good times Stewart made $200,000 per annum. Steinway, the piano forte man reaps a harvest of $25,000. Among the - heaviest figures are Peter Goelet, - - whose - - immense estate yields 9510,000, while Amos R. Eno reports $195,000. This is the fruit of industry and talent. - Mr. Eno commenced life poor, and fifty years ago was but a poor village clerk. He came to New York, and from small begin nrnsrs built up the house of Eno & Phelps, which was for years the leading house in Pearl street. Mr. Eno was for thirty years a dry goods' merchant, and was considered one ot the best purchas ers in the city. His nicety of taste in sured a stock which always found cus tomers. Of late years he has been de voted to real estate operations, and now owns the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Turning to literature, we find the publisher, James Harper, set down at $48,000, while his brother (a partner in buiness has an income of $42,000. Robert Car ter reports . $42,000. This shows that the book trade has not suffered during the recent pressure as much as some other pursuits. - James Gordon Bennett figures at tli respectable rate of $167,000, but Robert Bonner, the colossus of the Ledger, overtops all the publishing craft, his in come being $238,500, and stands next to William B. Astor. We believe that Mr. Bonner's success has no parallel in the world. Twenty years ago he was a compositer in the office of the Hartford Courant. Three years later we find him reading proof in a New York office. Then he purchased a paper, and out of an unprofitable weekly he builds up the Ledger, that wonder of literary suc cess. The genius of Mr. ' Bonner has been devoted to making cheap literature, instructive and improving, by enlisting the highest rank of genius in the ser vice ot the masses. 1 he personal appearance of Mr. Bonner differs from all other leaders, of the printer crate. He is not slovenly like Greeley, nor diminitive like Raymond, nor stiff and clumsy like Bennett, all of whom have served on the Ledger at his bid ding. He is large and compactly. hnilt with a cairn, sen-possessed countenance, and a forehead of great breadth an elevation. - ouch a countenance one would expect to see in a successful Gen eral; or in any one of strong executive power, and we doubt not Robert Bon ner would have made' as great a mil tary man as he has an editor, since i the latter capacity he has marshaled th literati of America into his service. By the way, it is surprising that Dickens never made an amende to Mr. Bonner for his erroneous statement concerning compensation. Me averred that Tick nor & Fields were the only American publishers from whom he received any thing, whereas Mr. Bonner paid him $5,000 tor a tale which only ran through three numbers. J. his is the largest price paid to any author for a similar perfor mance in this country, and we believe in any other. The princely sums paid by Mr. Bonner form a new era in American literature, and are a matter of surprise both at Printing-house Square. Here the grand establishments of the Times and Tribune stand against each other like Calpe and Abyla, while at the next cor ner the Tract-house conducts its vast operations. Then follow all the miscel laneous operations of the craft, and the corner below . is graced by the Ledger establishment. . Here iron and marble unite in strength and beauty, and the fire king, while he serves as an indispensable slave, is set at de fiance. This home and abroad. It is the triumph of journalism over the magazine and book publishers, and is in itself Democracy in the world of letters. Mr. Bonner's new printing house in Spruce street completes that . neighborhood as the great center ' printing business in America. The trade has gradually worked into this spot nntii it has expelled alt other em ployments, and now absorbs an ' entire district. ' Spruce street - is but two or three blocks in length, and opens into building that can . not,, burn . until iron and stone and - brick aod mortar ecome combustible.'" In ' it Mr. Bon ner cn be seoh at any time in busi ness hours, and one will find Jrim quiet, thoughtful and self-conscious of those powers which poverty could not crush nor success dazzle. . Mr. Bonner, next to the Ledger, has a partiality for fine orses, and his stud includes six which cost over $100,000. ''" Their speed is now exercised for recreation, but never for money. Commodore Vanderbilt, whose stud is next in value, has expressed a wish tor a race with ' Bonner s ' fleetest steed, and has even sent a ' challenge of $50,000, a challenge, however, which he knew would be safe, since Mr. Bonner has ' Ions since refused this kind of questrianism. The Commodore is sorely nettled at the inferiority which he suffers, but he must make the best of it. "Permission from the Office." An amusing incident, too good to be lost, occurred at the Nicollet, a day or two since. A verdant couple from the vicinity of Winona, . who had never traveled outside of the limits of their ittle native town, fell in love, were mar ried, and on their bridal tcur visited Minneapolis. Arriving on the evening train, the turtle doves took rooms at the Nicollet. Before making his toilet the next morning, the young husband's eye rested upon the "rules and regulations" tacked upon the door, and for the purpose of posting himself in the requirements of hotel life, he proceeded to read them. Judge of his surprise, when after care ful study, he learned that "Washing in rooms is prohibited, except permission is obtained at the omce ! The young man looked about him. Upon the op posite side ot the room were wash-bowl, pitcher, towels, and all the necessaries for performing the usual morning ablu tions, but before his face and eyes was the rule "prohibiting washing in rooms! What was to be done 1 Bride and groom were at a loss to know. They certainly could not think of going to breakfast without "washing, and it was rather inconvenint to go to the river for that purpose. As he reflected upon the awk wardness ot the situation, the young man became impressed , with the idea that something must be done; and re membering the solemn promise made to the J us t ice of the Peace who, tor the trifling sum of seventy-five cents, united them in the holy bonds of matrimony the day previous, he determined to rise np in his strength and represent the case in proper terms "at the omce. lie did so. Approaching the desk, he beckoned to the clerk. " .Look a here ! said he, " that 'ere kaird that's stuck on the door says that nobody can't wash into the room 'less you let 'em. Now, couldn't you let me and Jane Ann wash our face and hands there this mornin' ? There's wash things and towels right in the room, and I wish you would let us use them! 'I'd be much obliged to you if you would. . . ' The clerk kindly gave bis consent, and the unsophisticated couple were Minneapolis Tribune. History of the Plow. TfiA Tirnt ninw in Kiinnnaprl tn Tintra h.An tin rnriA brnnnri nf a fran. nut. an aa o have a cleft end, the point, which, dragged along the surface of the ground, scraping a furrow, into which the seeds were thrown. It soon occurred to the husbandman that he might relieve his own labor by yoking an animal to the long arm of the primitive instrument ; then a handle had to be affixed to the back, so that the plow might be guided, The strength of the animal soon wore away or broke the cleft of the branch, and thus necessity gave rise to the in vention of movable shares, hrst of wood, next of stone, copper or iron, worked to a shape adapted to cutting the soil so as to avoid the excessive labor arising from the plowman's having to lean with all his weight upon the plow, to press it into the earth. Just such an inplement as these conjectures indicate, was used by the baxons. Some of the facts connected with the history of the plow are almost incredi ble. In Ireland there once prevailed a cus torn of "plowing with the horse s tail The draught pole was lashed to the tail of the horse, and as no harness was em ployed, two men were necessary, one to guide and press upon the plow, and the other to direct the horse, which he did by -walking backwards before the miser able animal, and beating it on the head on either side, according to the direction required. ' This custom prevailed for considerable time, in spite of a law which was passed in the early part of the 17th century, imposing severe pen alties upon persons guilty of "plowing by the horse 8 tail," as in the act men tioned and described. From the Rev, Caesar Otways' "Sketches in Erris and Tyrawly," it appears that the barbarous practice lingered in the remote west Ireland as late as the year 174U. And from a paper "On the Breed Horses in the Ancient Times," printed in the first volume of the "Transactions of the Society of Antiquaries of Scot land," we find that the same custom was practiced in that as late as the Ex. of BENEFIT SALE.
