In the course of I lie evening Mr, Sivage

at the coo.iiess of his employers, which he

tniiikuig of the past, wondering what hud

The door opened, und n person entered

lie wus dressed iu u Misty suit of lilack. and
his face was wan and thin, us if he hud felt
nil the blighting course of poverty. 11
seemed to hesitate to speak, and at last the
merchant said

"Can you give nie work ;"
"What can you do f"
"Any thing about the store. P. iok k. i-ping
I wouid prefer; but anything that will keep

There was something in the voice tlmt

"George Hill," was the reply.
"And 1 uni Wuller Gratith-y ."
George lliil started us if lie received u

Amtihg till the congrrse, hehi this sum
mer ol princes, Ihw ji is, miisiciHiis, scIiimiI
iiuislers. social-science men, poliliea! etono
mists, und u hundred others, one very
notable meeting has almost escaped public
nt tent ion. A few days ago ot.r furls cor
respondent told us that it ci ingress of mi-m-bt-is
of the illustrious house of Uothchild
has been sitting ut faris. The purport, of
the met ting was nothing less than to rear
range the dominions of the great blinking
ily tiusty. In one word, the great object of
the Kothchild congress was to reduce the
five brunches ot the house who now rule
Knrope to four, and, following the c.vaniph;
of Garibaldi, to strike Another sovereign of
Naples Irom the list ot reigning inonnichs.
Henceforth there are to be but four kings
of the house ol 1'otlischild, with secure
thrones ut London. Paris. Vinna, and Frank
fort. It is lio.v exactly a hundred years
s.nce ii poor Je.v . '-tilled .Mayer Anselm. made
His appearance ill the city of Hanover, l-ure-footi-.i,
with ti sack on his shoulders, uiid ii
bundle of rags on his back. Smii-im'ssI'iiI in
trade, like most of his coreligionists, he re
turned to l-'ratiklolt nt I lie end of u few
years, and set up u small shop in Hie "Jew
Lime," over which hung the signboard
of u re.l shield, culled inGirinuii l.otiis
chil.l. Art a dea'cr in old nnd rare coins, he
made the ttcipiaintuncc of the Serene Klector
of House lussel, who. happening tube in
wniit of n confidential Hgctil for various open
nnd secret purposes, appointed the slotvvd
lookino Mayer Anselm to the post. The
Selene Elector, being compelled soon alter
to lly his coimtry. Mayer Anselm took charge
ol his cash, tiinoiiiituig to several miliums
of lloiins. With ihe instinct of his race.
An-eiin did not loiget to pl.t the money mil
on good interest, so that, I e lore Napoleuu
was gone to Elba, nnd t he iilt. stl ions Elector
had lit til ni I to Cassel. thecapilal had mole
than doubled. The rt;l I of llesse Cussi t
thought it almost a mat v le to get his money
safely returned from the Jew Lane of Frank
fort, und at I he Congress ol Vienna was never
tired ol singing the praise of his llevvbrew
aiicut to ail the princes of Europe. The
dvvi IK rs under the sign ol tin- led shield
I inched in lucre sleeves; keeping carefully
to tlieniM In s the great fact that the electoral
two million florins drought them tour mil
lions of liieie omi. Ivever v a. honesty a
better policy.
Mayer Atiselm died in 1S12, without hav
the siipri mo sat.sf.iction of hearing his hon

sign-board over Ihe paternal hoii.-e. tu his
deathbed their father had taken a solemn
oath trom ull of them to hold liis lour mil

kept the injunction. Hut ine old city of

it w liiii:. to exit nd their splien of operations
by ivluMishing brum h hanks at the chief

up his residence at Paris.
Strictly united, the wealth and power of
the live ItotliselnhU was visted in the eldest
born ; iievcrthelcss, the shrewdest of the
sons of Mayer Aiisi !m. nud the heir of his

the I'.il ' line of the family, gaining more than
a million .sterling by the sole battle of Wa
terloo, the news of which he earned lo E'ng
land two days e.ulii-r than the mail. The
weiubt of the solid millions gradually trans
ferred tiie ascendancy n the family from
Germany to En-; hind, making London the
Metropolis ot Ihe r. in:n!: ' yna I.. . Ho. s

the nit mbers of the house of Kotlisehiid
only in'.ei niurry with each other. James
Hothschild nuliricd the daughter of h's
brother Solomon ; his son E linon.l, heir
apparent of the Fn itch lii.e, was united to
his lirst cousin, the daughter ot Lionel, ani'.
irraiubdiiuoliter of Nathan Hothsciiibl ; and
Lionel iiL'ain-M. P. for London - gave his
hand, in s;iii, to his lir-t cousin Chaiioi'o,
the d.nurhter of Charles Ho'.lischiids, ol Na
ples. It is unnecessary to say that, uithotigh
these lialriinonial itlliaiicis have kept the
millions wonderful I;, together, Ihcy have not
itnproevd the race of old Mayer Atiselm ot
the rvd shield. Already signs of physical
weakness are iM-comim: visii.h- in the great

One of the strongest protests that has
been tiiude against thu out lit of the rebel
pirates in llritish jmrts nppcurs in the
I'rojile't Journal of Dundee, Scotland. The
vv hole ciiso is cleverly slated ns follow s :
"Is it Knurr? Four sw ill and powerful
stcann rs," built under tin; supervision of
well-known Confederate olliccrs, to the order
of the Confederate government, nnd thor
oughly equipped for war, in and from our
seaport-, have now ulinost clca.ed the schs
of the ships of a maritime power whose
merchant marine iseipial to our own. These
four vecls. paid for iu lirilish gold, con
structed by llritish shipbuilders, equipped
in llritish purls, and manned by llritish
sailors, now cruise on their work o!' destruc
tion, with the llritish Hag hoisted as a
decoy for the entrapping of the merchant
vessels of the L'nitid States. I If the four
privateers, only two. the Florida and the
Southerner, have ever been in a Confederate
s iiport. They tire ull entirely llritish in
tneir design und outfit. They belong to
no recognised statu ; they obey unrecognised
law ; they have no nt'itun us the war ships of
any sovereign Power. ISritUh jimu their
lirt to their juniiiintu, thry litire iiuthihy Con
uli rule nlinit Hum except the colorable
pretext of u so-called commission from un
insurgent subject of the I'nited States.
Uuilt in defiance of our municipal law,
equipped under cover of untruths, got out
ol our ports clandestinely, nud without any
legal clcarnnce, ami now engaged in burning
ships on mmiirivii, ami without that legal
ti sting of tneir cap lire which the iHtige,
or. in other words, the law of unions re
quires, these four incendiaries are making
a war history whiih. in turn wid u'tiinateiy
ciuulc it war. for they tire not only tiring
the ships of one of the world's mightiest
nations, but they tire, at the same time,
lighting in the lit art of that proud and
powerltd tuition ti tire of hatred which
assuredly will not die out in this generation
nor in tne next.
' These things tire simple facts. American
captains, bronzed with tropical suns und
gray witii Be--mcn who have braved fevers
und storms in acquiring a property in their
fine ships i.re returning to ibeir homes by
do.ens, ruined inc-n men beggared by tiie
incendiarism of privateers fitted out by
English Members of l'arl'.ami tit, in open
und impudent contravention of English law.
And while all this is the ca-o. there is on
our statue book an cnactnietit w hich decrees
punishment tor all who furnish such, or who
'attempt to furnish such, or who are sound
us 'concerned in the aiding or assisting of
those w ho attempt to furnish such. Vit in
spite of this tightly-drawn law, which thus
includes not the cnief criminal alone, but
all, down to three removals of those who
have the n molest complicity iu his guilt,
more vessels of n similar kind nre being
built, und the oll'etiiler is received iu Parlia
ment tvilu citeets.
"This is a serious stute of things. v"e
tne drifting towards a war in which tl.u
right will not bo with its a war of porten
tous dimensions, iu which the working class
will have no sympathy w ith the governing

should continue to be worn; for. properly
