THE FALLEN MERCHANT.
Before the establishmnt of a Batik of Eng.landi
in the reign of corrtruetree-liwing William and
Mary, the goldsmiths for :the most part acted asthe
money.< harigens and bankers of the good city of
London. We find them about the purlieus of the
Royal Eichange; in Conthill, but chiefly in Lom
bard street. If rich associations with our eammer
cal history can tlignifv a locality, then is Lombard
street both dig - ified and venerable. It was here
prior to the * time of the goldsmiths, that the scorn
of British commerce may be said to have been
planted by foreigrters. halian merchants from
Venice; Genoa and 'Slovenes, known by the name
of Longabards. or Lornhatdst Fettled in this spot
early in the thirteenth centoryf "and from them,''
trays Stow, " the street derived its name. Though.
the great fire of 1666, which 'lced by Fenchurch
street, along Gracechureh street and reached the
Standard in Cornhifl, neteissiallty included this dis- -
trict withinrthe scene alit. ravages, we have every
reason to believe, from the position of the three'
chinches, St. Mary-Woolnuth, Allhallows, and St.
Edmund the King and Martyr, rebuilt on their an
cient sites, that the present street ckenpies the.pre
rise ground of the old one inhabited by the Lom
bard merchants.
This being the case, new that the *torn rif i•nm;

do here. The earth groans with their

safes, and the ground is honeycombed it — rith their

hve.long day in this enchanted region ; and richer
it is than the fabled garden• of .the Hesperides,

The last obseivatimi will apply to the subject of
our sketch.
Some years ago, ale elderly man, neatly but poor
ly dressad, with a thin 'yet" healthy countenance,
might have been seen daily at his past in the Street
of banks: He was taciturn and grave l but his re
serve did not partake of ill-horror; on the contra
ry, his Mild grey eye indicated a kindly disposi
tion., and his teetotal wore an expression full of be
nevolence His hair, which formed a ring around
the lower part of his head, was perfectly white,
and the lines and wrinkles of age gave no harsh
ness to his venerable face. Jeffery 'wa s the only
name by which he was known; and his comrades
were entlrely ignorant of his history.. He had
been recommended, and obtained the post-he held,
many years previously; for even to be elected
ticket porter requires at times a little interest. Jef
fery's chief station was at the entrance of Pope's
Head Alley, just oppos-ite St. Mary IVoolnoth's
church; and here, waiting for at-hence customer,
he would sit on the corner of a form, his fore-fin-.
ger placed against nis cheek; or his hands resting
on his knees. His darned coat and patched shoes
betrayed poverty; but nothing ever tempted him
to enter the dram•shop, so he had generally a few
stray pence in his pocket.
When . a stranger made his appearance an the
street in searcreof some bank--a ;fact indieated by
his stating here and there, glancing atone dour and
then at another—or whin a borsemin,4l44 up,
Jeffery did not, like his companions, dart loaned,
press his services, and annoy, bat he performed
his business gaiety and gravely; and when anoth
er chanced to outstrip him, shuffling.tbe old man
aside, and claiming Worn the countryman in lop
boots the penny Jeflery never evinced antter, or
t‘, l l his temper: he ictired again to the old rickety
form in Pope's Head Alley. and bean to,stare hard
at St M.ey-WoolnoaCs church ; he dal this. not
surely in admiration ot the architectural beauties
of iha edificakai merely to keep down memory.
I.' a sad e.,emilo.Jetlery was memory: visions

somethine, like contempt on the little apron at his
wain, and aitimes, thobh that Vas eke, to draw
his sleeve across his eyes to brush away the drops
of moisture which the retrospect of happier days
er he red . there. ''' r •
Jeffery, nevertheless, - cherished a feeling of in
dependence; hence he would not -.subject himsell
to the regulations of an almshouse; and he would
not occupy a nook in another person's dwelling.—
He had a very small house, or rather it might have
been termed a hut, far, in the suburbs. This cabin

for a small weekly pittance, kept-Jeffery!s cabin in
order; and having nowprepated his evetningmerfl,
and itterttled to any &raiment's' heiniglicliztte to

Jeliery was a widower, his wife having died
even before misfortune had fallen-on hits: He hid
one son; and When the bankTplciiied "gip' over
took The firm of which be was at. megiber, triuteatty
at the father's request, left England. The young
man had written !from India several Woes ; beheld
a situation as a desk in a innreantife'honse at tal
cum, bun his salary was small ;and Jefferr, not
wishing to .barrow his songs feelings by &picture of
his own distress, kept the dire straits to which he
was driven a profound secret. No tidings of the
young min had now reached him to; several years;
so that it might be presumed be was either- dead,
had forgottem his lather, or his letters had been
carried. The last circumstance was 7probable, in
astnuch as Jeffery, hem feelings of pride, had for
a loug time dropped his seal name; for bow could
he retain it, a common- porter in that etly where
once he flourished a wealthy merchant?
It so happened, that the day on which we have
described Jeffery returning to his home, was -his
son"rs bitalulay ; it was therefdre natural that . he
should have been .more than usual sad. Oa this
other particular occasions, it was
his custom,.to bring to light from the bottom of an.
old trunk, certain objects which afforded him at
once pain and pleasure to gaze on. Jeffery now
shut his door; the purple sunray, of evening
streaming through the little western window and•
lit up the room, playing on the small_ ornaments
which adorned the mantle•helf and softening the
silver locks of the lonely old man. The birds sang
Their lust vespers on the ancient and blackened
trees without; the dug was alone insensible of
God's loveliest and most mysterious creation—light.
But Jeffery drew filth the th i einentoes alluded to;
They were three small paintings in antique frames:
the that represented the River Thames, with its
forest of masts, the most conspicons objects being
certain warehouses, with cranes, and bales of goods
piled in front, and urea apparently at work with all
'he energy and bustle peculiar to these rommer
cial depots. At the foot of the picture was Written,
Melville's Warehouse."
" Mine—once mine!" whispered the raged
merchant. "They courted me then—they would
have made me an alderman—lord mayor, if I had
wished it. The cloud came—the darkness of ruin
fell—the blighp . of poverty and wretchedness en
compassed me : I was as a tree struck with light
ning, and reared to the heart's core. They told
me I might take shelter in an Al Iraboalie !ILI !lite!
Melville the inmate of their charity ; though starr
ing, I would be independent still.: Theyfttilieloeg

The old Man stooped over the picture, sighing as
he aid so. The blind dog, as if

man rouse himself from hie deep revery.
It was a'biasy day in Lombard street, and with
the city bankers generally, fordividends in Consols
had began to be paid. Clerks, with great leather
cases ready to burst with the riches they contained
in Checks and note:, hurried into one bank, and
hurried out of another. Thieves, disguised ingen
demanly attire, had the appearance of being busy
also, walking about with anxious faces, :lad bun
dles of papal in their band, but keeping theifeyes
keenly fixed on the said clerks, " waiting an op
portunity."—Stockholders kept up a running com
munication with the principals of banking! firms,
for the barometer of the money-market was rising
and falling in an alarming uncertainty, important
news having arrived.from abread.
The porters, too had a harvest of it—so many
strangers losing themselves in the labyrinth of al.
legs about Lombard street, requiring to bit set right
and so many horses waiting *be :held. Jeffery
was at his post; but his hand was slow and he did
net gain as much as his comrades:. As he efood,
however neir a well-known bank, a handsoine car
riage with two horses drew up close to him This
promised something, and possibly mo'e than pence
thought Jeffery; so he mover] forward with unusal
alacrity to fake diawn the steps.
: "Now can't you be quiet r said a foot man t o

"You didn't know I was bare suppose, old wrin
kle-taco ? Yon won't have any coppers this time,
you needn't hope it. Stand back, I say if you don't
want to taste of the coachman's whip." •
The front window of the carriage was down=4

perCeited; thus.he within was ablefo overhear the-
Words of his servant. • Poor Jeffery drew back,

are meats cooked any better within their precincts.
Those little, simple; and healthy delicacies, Which
the good 'housekeeper knows intuitively how . to
produce, are never seen here. Even a dish of pq
