The House or Rothschild.
Mom the London Globe.]
Among all the congresses, held this summer, of
princes, lawyers, musicians, schoolmasters, social-
Science men, political economists, and a hundred
others, one very notable meeting has almost escaped
public attention. A few days ago our Paris cor
respondent' told us that a congress of.the members
of the illustrious house of Rothschild has been sit
ting at Faris. The purport of the meeting was no.
thing. less than to rearrange the dominions of the
great banking dynasty. In one word, the great oh.
sect of the. Rothschild congress - was M reduce the
five branches of the house who now rule Europe to
four, end, following the example of G - aribaldi;to
strike another sovereign of Naples from the list of
reigning monarch.. Henceforth there are to be but
four king. of the house,ot Rothschild, with secure
thrones nt London, Paris, Vienna, and Frankfort.
It is now exactly a hundred years since a poor Jew,
• called Mayer Aneelm, made his appearance at the
city of Hanover, barefooted, with a sack on his shout
-
• dens, and a bundle of rags on hie 'back, Successful
tradein t like most of his ooreligionists, he returned
to Frankfort at the end of a few years, and set up a
•amall shop in the " Jew Lane," over which hung the
•aignboard of a red shield, called in German roths
land.
' As a dealer in old and rare coins, he made the am.
quaintance of the Serene Elector of Hesse Cassel,
"who, happening to be in want of a confidential agent
for various open and secret purposes, appointed the
Shrewd looking Mayer Anselm to the post. The
Serene Elector, being compelled soon after to fly his
country, Mayer Anselm took , charge of his cash,
Amounting to several millions of fLorins.. With the
instinct of his race, Anselm did not forget to put the
'money out on good interest, so that, before Napo.
feon was gone to Elba, and the illustrious Elector
bad returned to Cassel, the capital had more than
doubled. The ruler of Hesse Cassel thought it al
most a marvel to get his money safely returned from
the Jew Lane of Frankfort, and at the Congress of
'Vienna waanever tired of singing the praise of his
Hebrew agent to all the princevof Europ.e. The
dwellers under the sign of the red • shield laughed
in their sleeves; keeping carefully to themselves
the great fact that the electoral two million florins
- brought them four millions of their own. • Never
Was honesty a better policy,
Mayer Auselm died in 1812, without having the
'supreme satisfaction of hearing his honesty extolled
by kings and princes. He left live sons, who, sue.
seeded him in the banking and moneylending busi
ness, and who, conscious of their social value, drop.
pad the name of Anselm, and adopted the higher
sounding one of Rothschild, taken from the sign.
board over the paternal house. On his deathbed
their father had taken a solemn oath from all of them
to hold his four millions well together, and they have
faithfully kept the injunction. But the old city of
Frankfort clearly was too narrow a realm for the
fruitful cowing of four millions, and, in consequence,
the five were determined, after a while to extend
their sphere of operations by establishing branch
banks at the chief cities of Europe. The eldest son,
Anselm, born 1773, remained at Frankfort ; the se.
cond, Solomon, born in 1774, settled at Vienna ; the
third, Nathan, born in 1777, went to London; the
fourth, Charles, the enfant terrible of the family, es.
.tabliehed himself in the soft climate of Naples; and
the fifth and youngest, James, born 1792, took up his
residence at Paris,
Strictly united, the wealth and power of the five
Bothschilds was vested in the eldest. born ; never.
thelees, the shrewdest of the eons of Mayer Anselm,
and the heir of his genius, Nathan, the third son,
soon took 'the reins of government into his own
hands. By his faith in Wellington and the flesh and
muscle of British soldiers he nearly doubled the
fortune Gi the amity, gaining more than a million
sterling by the sole battle of Waterloo, the news of
which he carried to England two days earlier than
the mail. The weight of the solid millions gradu
ally transferred the ascendancy in the family front
Germany to England, making London the metropo
lie of the reigning dynasty of Rothschild. Like the
royal families of Europe, the memtfera of the house
of Rothschild only , intermarry with each Other.
James Rothschild married the daughter of his brother
Solomon ; his on Edmond, heir•apperent of the
French line, was united to his first cousin, the
daughter of Lionel, and granddaughter of Nathan
Rothschild ; and Lionel again—M. P. for London—
gave his hand, in 1836, to his first cousin Charlotte,
the daughter of Charles Rothschild, of Naples.
It is unnecessary to say that, although these
matrimonial alliances have kept the millions won
derfully together, they have not improved the race
of old Mayer Anselm of the red shield. Already
aim; of physical weakness are becoming visible in
the great family. So at least hint the French papers
in their meagre notices about the Rothschild Con
gress at Paris. From all that can be gathered out of
a wilderness of canards; thin faces and thick fiction,
it appears that the sovereigns of the Stook Exchange
=et in conference for the double purpose of cen
tralizing their money power and widening their
tnatrimonial realm. In other words, the five reign
ing kings, descendants, according to the law- of
primogeniture, of the five eons of Mayer Anselm,
came to the decision to reduce their number to four,
by cutting- oft the Neapolitan branch of Charles
Rothschild, while it was likewise decided that per
'Mission should be given to the younger members of
the family to marry, for• the benefit of the race,
beyond the range of first cousinohip.
What has led to the exclusion of the Neapolitan
line of Rothschild seems to have been the constant
exercise of a highly blameable liberality unheard of
in the annals of the family. Charles, the 'prodigal
son of Mayer Anselm, actually. presented, Win- the
year 1846, 10,000 ducats to the orphan asylum of St.
Carlo, at Naples, and the son and heir of Charles,
Gustavus, has given repeated signs of his Inclina
tion to follow in the footsteps of his father. Such
conduct, utterly unbecoming of the policy of the
Louse of Rothschild, could not be allowed to pass
unnoticed, and, accordingly—we quote the rumor of
Paris journalism—the (Valance of the Neapolitan
line has been pronounced. However, Baron Gus
tavus' de Rothschild is not to retire into private
life, like famous Charles V., with only a cassock on
his shoulders and a pray er.book in his hand, but is
allowedto take with him a small fortune 0f1.80,000,000
francs, or about mix millions sterling—a mere crumb
from the table of the descendants of poor Mayer
who wandered shoeless through the electo
rate of good King George the Third. It Is certain
that no romance of royalty is equal to the romance
of the house of Rothschild.
Russian Atrocities in Poland.
One Lieutenant Sigismund, late of the United
States army, who fought with the insurgents, nar
rates; in a letter to the London Times, some of the
terrible cruelties practised by the Russians. On one
of his journeys the Cossacks searched the carriage,
and frequently slapped ladies in the face. An insur
gent camp was surprised at dinner:
Those who were mounted made an attempt to cut
their way through, and about eighty succeeded in
doing so. I received a blow from a Cossack, and
Was thrown off my horse, but was taken up by some
of my companions, who made for the woods.. In
I'alling4rom my horse my left leg wax hurt, but not
dangerously. From the wood we sent out a small
detachment to learn the result of the engagement,
and was informed that the Russians had left. We
then rode back to the place where we had left more
than eighty of our companions engaged ; but, good
Cod ! who can describe the horrible scene that met
our sightl There lay eeventy.three mutilated bodies,
stripped perfectly naked, some of their heads al
most severed from their bodies, others with their
limbs cut off, all evidently having met with death in
Ids most terrible form. One poor fellow, a youth of
about seventeen, had his throat cut, and his tongue
torn out and banging down from his mouth.
About twelve of thenrwere not yet quite dead.
From them we learned that, seeing they were cur.
rounded by such overwhelming numbers, and that
all possibility of escape was cut off; they had fired
off their pieces and then inquired of the Russian
commandant, General Pomeranzoff, whether, if
they laid down their arms and surrendered, they
;would be treated as prisoners of war. They were
answered in the affirmative, and, accordingly, they
grounded their arms ; but the moment they had
done - so and their arms were no longer within
Teach, Pomeranzoff ordered them all to be cut down
to a man. A dreadful massacre ensued ; they were
first shot down by the infantry and then hacked to
Pieces by the sabres and lances of the Coesaclrs.
Both of the insurgent leaders, one of whom was a
/Walden by birth, and bad previously been an officer
In the Russian service, and the other .a native of
Posen ' named Unruh, an excellent and heroic officer,
were killed. After having stripped the dead of
everything, these demons in human shape returned
to Wielnu, where they made a triumphant entry,
carrying one of their wounded, which they said was
all they had lost. We subsequently found, however,
thirty-live of their dead concealed in the corn, which
was then very high. As for their commandant, who
had taken the lead in all these atrocities, lie was pro
moted immediately afterward to a generalship for
hie bravery !

A. PUBLIC MEETING DISPERSED. On
Wednesday evening a public meeting of Secession
Sympathizers was held at the corner of Marlboro'
!Meet and Girard avenue. The first speaker was Ex
'Governor Bigler, who was received with some ap
plause-at first. After a few preliminary remarks, he
maid the '• North was iresponsible for the war." This
;eentiment was received with hoots and yells, cheers
for Democracy and the Union. The Ex Governor,
!when about to resume his speech, was hissed—voices
Shouting, "call back that remark." The Ex-Go-
Wernor was evidently nonplussed, and finally he had
to retire, his speech being very unpopular. A second
speaker appeared on the stand, but the meeting
would not let him proceed until Ex.-Governor Bigler
lied apologized for assailing the North.
A third speaker presented himself, and amid con
fusion, he said he desired to " speak to white men."
Noises, " We are white men and Democrata."l
Order was now restored. Presently the speaker
said, "I regard the Hon. Mr. Tallandigham as my
'brother." This ended the speech, and a scene of con
fusion ensued which almost defies description: Val
landigham's brother sprang over the front of the
bustings, and escaped in the crowd, as a party of men
Came up the stepladder in the rear. Such shouting
and yelling has seldom been heard before In the
peaceful regions of the Eighteenth ward.
The police officers,were present, and thus pre.
Vented any serious outbreak. The whole affair
cannot be said to have come up to the dignity of a
riot, it was simply an outburst of indignation be
e ause of the rdnark of ex-Governor Bigler censuring
the North for the war. The party of indignant °M
ann; who took possession of the stand, gave utter
ance to many sentiments, of which we jotted down
the following as the true Index: "Three cheers for
Demooracy and the Union l" These were given
With a hearty good 'will. "Three cheers for the
'Union. right or wrong." [Response immense.]
" Three cheers for the Army and Navy." [Culver-
Sal response.] " Three cheers for Andy Curtin, the
Soldiers' friend." [Greatresponee.] Now followed
a series of , groans for Vallandigham and Jeff Davis,
ex-Governor Bigler—traitors—copperheads.
By this time, the Union men, hearing of the family
(planet proceeded to the scene, and, of course, (it
Was quite natural for them to use their lungs) joined
in. .There was a promiscuous and vivacious time.
At least two thousand men were present, all shout
ing for everything loyal and as strongly denouncing
everything disloyal.
A procession was now formed, and the immense
party passed through a number of the principal
streets of the Eighteenth ward, feeling as proud as
pour gallant army did at the battle of Gettysburg.
The subject was the theme of conversation pester.

An Attempt to Stop the Race and Vine-
Yesterday morning five persons, who are con
ductors and drivers on the Race and Yine-atreets
Passenger Railway cars, were arrested and taken
before the police magistrate of the Fifth ward, on
the charge of conspiracy to violate the election laws.
Henry M. Deechert appeared for the prosecution,
and Charles Gilpin for the defence. The following
evidence was elicited :
Davis sworn.—l am the landlord of the
National Union Hotel; thirty-nine boarders are at
my house ; no arrangements have been madd for
them to leave at any time; they pay their own
board.
Charles IL Carpenter, one of the assessors, was
called to the stand. His evidence went to show that
one or two of the boarders at the National Union
Hotel had their names put on the extra assessment,
Mr. Kemble, the proprietor, now resumed his tes
timony. He declared there was no understanding of
the time when his boarders were to leave. The
main portion of those who had been arrested were
drivers and conductors on the _Race and Vinestreets
passenger railway, and were as regular at their
meals, the witness supposed, as their vocation
would allow. The witness had, however, been
away from home a good deal recently. He could
not tell whether any of the defendants had been
placed on the extra assessment in the Twenty•fourth.
ward. One of the defendants had his wife at the
hotel, and another talked of bringing his lady to the
hotel also to board. The defendants appeared to be
as regularly at - their meals as their business would
allow.
The next witness was Mrs. Sarah Ann Kemble,
wife of the proprietor of the hotel. She testified that,
with regard to the railroad men, no arrangement
for their boarding had been made by anybody except
themselvesthat they pay from $3 to $4 per week,
that the witness never said they were colonizers,
nor that any one had arranged for their board ;
that she knew of nothing which made her suppose
they had come to the hotel to influence the election ;
that they all sleep at the hotel, and that she knew
nothing of their getting placed on the extra assess
ment.
Charles Smith was next sworn.—He lives on Ha
verford road, nearly opposite the National Union
Hotel ; he knew one or two of the boarders by name,
and several by sight ; they were employees of the
Race and 'Vine streets Passenger Railway ; he knew
nothing of their being placed on the extra assess
ment.
ammeter.
OCrOBEE 8, 1.888
James McGranigan was next sworn. His evi
dence amounted to nothing, save that he had been
spying around to see where the conductors and
drivers on the Race and Vine•streete Railway lived.
The evidence here closed. The counsel for the
prosecution asked that the defendante be bound over
to answer the charge of conspiracy to violate the
election laws.
Mr. Gilpin desired to know whether he was really
in earnest in making such a , request. Mr. G. now
made a few remarks, and contended that not a single
word of evidence was elicited, why these honest
industrious defendants should be deprived of - one
moment of their liberty or employment.
District Attorney Mann, who was .present, and
whose desire is to prosecute all violations of the
law, said that upon such evidence as adduced, he
could not, as a conscientious man, ask any jury to
convict.
Alderman White said that he would give the pro
secutors in the case an opportunity for a further
hearing, to take place at half past four o'clock this
afternoon.
W. J. P. White, Esq., the president of the Rail-
road Company, entered security for the men in the
employ of the Company, and they returned to their
work, having lost a half a day's labor by the above
arrest.
One of the men who was arrested belongs to the
Democratic party. The- prime movers in this affair
have evidently made a grand mistake.
We might state that these men were arrested on a
Warrant issued upon the oath of a man calling him•
self A. M. Donohue, who will probably be proaa•
cuted for " malicious prosecution."
The Courts were exceedingly dull yesterday, and
nothing of public interest transpired. In the United
States Circuit Court, before Justice Grier, an action
to recover damages for an alleged infringement of a
patent was on trial, and not concluded at the hour
of adjournment. The District. Courts were not in
session. In the Court of Quarter Sessions, there
were a number of pleas Of guilty entered in charges
of larceny, but none of any ,moment. The usual
sentences were imposed.
A meeting of both branches of City Councils was held
yesterday afternoon, at the usual hour.

Mr. KAMERIX said the ordinance was nothing more nor
less than a committee of gentlemen asking for the rise of

Mr..Zego said this committee is to go there for the pur

Mr. DAVIS said this committee came squarely before

importance. In offering the ordinance it was done to
see if Councils thought It important enough that such a

TIIE POLIOE.
[Before Mr. Alderman Beltler. /
Colonizing Rebels.
John Toner and John Holmes, from. Loudon
county, Virginia, were arraigned yesterday on the
charge of conspiracy to violate the election laws.
These two men, with eighty others, arrived in Phi..
ladelphia on the 26th of last month; they were met
at the Baltimore depot by a man named Hall, who
took them to Washington Gheer, foreman of the
work at Fairmount Park. The two defendants were
taken to the house of a Mr. Davis, at 14.31 North
Tenth street, by Gheer. Arrangements were made
to board them at this place. Mr. Davis took them
to the assessors and had their names placed on the
extra assessment list ; he kept the certificates of
their assessments.
Yesterday the defendants made their appearance
in a lager beer saloon on Chestnut street, and after
indulging somewhat freely in lager, were quite com
municative. Because of sundry statements made by
them, they were taken into custody by Detectives
Lemon and Henderson. They made a clean breast
of the vhole affair. They made affidavits impli
cating Davis and Gheer in the transaction. They re•
ceived work, and were to vote the Democratic ticket
as a reward for their work. They admitted they did
wrong; they felt it with wrong to vote the Demo
cratic ticket in the North, but they were in desperate
circumstances, and having been lighting in the ranks
of the rebel army against the Union army, they
thought voting the Democratic ticket could not hurt
them much:
In reply to a question as to what became of the
other men that arrived in the city, they said they
did not know, but supposed they were living in dif
ferent parts of Philadelphia. In regard to this
affair, they said they were innocently drawn into it,
by Messrs. Gbeer and Davis.
A person who had been in the rebel service was
called to the witness stand. He identified Holmes
and Toner as having been in the rebel service, and
that they arrived in Philadelphia about two weeks
since. They were committed in default of 1,000
bail each to answer the charge of conspiracy to vio
late the election laws of Pennsylvania.
More of the Twenty fourth-ward Colo-
Santee Gorman and Wm. Leech were arraigned
yesterday on a further hearing, charged with con
spiracy to violate the election laws. Patrick Mad
den, Patrick Morgan, and Patrick Jourdan were.
also arraigned at the same time, these three having
been arrested atter the other batch had been taken.
into custody, as already mentioned in The Press.
The following evidence was elicited :
W. J. Loflin, the'assessor, testified that one of the
men, when he first came to be assessed, said that he
bad no family with him ; I sent him away ; he same
again and said his family now lived in West Plata
deiphia, and that he lived with them i I then as.

lars (862,289) for the purpose of such increase in the

schools, -for the year 1863, as the Board of Control may
deem just and. proper, provided that no such increased
salary shall - be paid to any teacher hereafter elected
who has not a proper certificate of qualifications.
A general discussion ensued upon the merits of the bill
Mr. Painter declaring himself opposed to its passage and
citing statistics to show that the proposed increase was
uncalled for. Messrs. Cresswell, liarper, and Quinn ad
vccated the passage of the ordinance.** The main argil=
went urged by the friends of the measure was that the
increase of salary was rendered indispensable in conse
quence of the general advance in the priceof all the ne
cessaries of life. During the discussion Mr.. Painter read
a speech prepared for the occasion. Mr. Quinn, in the
course of some remarks on the bill, said that the main
points, at least, of the apeech of Mr. P. had been writ
ten by a city official, and though that gentleman had
delivered it, he could not claim to be its exclusive au
thor. This assertion was indignantly denied by
Painter, who characterized it as a lie, and insinuated a
desire to test the pbySlent unpubllliatie or his opponent l e ,
debate. The . Chair promptly interfered and prevented.
any further personalities.
The' bill was further debated by Messrs. Barger and
EIT. HARPER moved to amend the first section so as to
Provide for an increase in the salaries of teachers of forty
instead of twenty-Eve per cent. Agreed to—yeas 19,
nays 16.
The section , was accordingly amended so as to make
the amonnt of appropriation $67.405. The section as
amended and the second section were adopted, when the
ordinance was passed.
