THE harvest of this world is gathered by a great variety of reapers; some are good, some bad. Riches are not always given to "men of understanding, nor favor to men of skill, but time and chance happen to them all." New York has many varieties of rich men. Some are misers wearing the garb of the pauper; some are dishonest bankrupts clad in the garments of others; some purchase estates with money wrung from the filth and wreck of humanity, while others are the Lord's noblemen, gathering industriously that they may disperse bountifully. We can only notice a few of the more prominent classes of rich men.
