"In the disturbances of tho time,"
replied Mayer vou itotliscinlU, " 1 can
promise nothing. It must be a very low
rato if any. You will have to trust me
to pay what I can, when I am able to
afford it."
"Very well," replied the elector, "my
chief purpose is to secure them. From
what 1 can learn of you I cannot do bet
ter than to trust you. I muBt bid you
adieu."
Rothschild departed, received the
elector's treasure on deposit, was able to
loan it and reloan to Rome advantage,
but paid no interest on it for eight years,
and returned it to the elector's son in
1823.
Such, at least, according to the leg
end, is the origin of that wonderful
house of Rotbschild, whose existence
and operations are snrronnced with
something of the mysteries and dazzling
speotacular display found chiefly in
fairy romance and Arabian Nights
tales.
During all the troubles in Europe in
the early part of the century, Rjtiis
child remained undisturbed. He nego
tiated two loans of $4,000,000 each for
Denmark, which, contemptible now,
were enormous then. A large whole
sale Yankee notions" or dry goods
house might surpass them to-day.
- Mayer Rothsahild had the faculty of
turning all chances to good account.
Just before his death in 1812 he called
together his six sons Nathan, Solo
mon, Anselme, Karl, Mayer and James,
and said to them :
I want you to promise on your sol
emn oaths always to remain united in
carrying on the operations of our
house."
They swore as he askeJ, but after his
death spnarntad! or rather tVinv rliri.ln.l
Europe between them. They establish
ed their houses at Paris, London,
Frankfort, Vienna and Naples. Each
one shared in the general operations of
the house, but had individual supervi
sion over this particular field. It was
not a central bank with different
branohes; there were five different
houses, which, if occasion required,
act 3d as one.
The emperor of Austria ennobled all
of them cs if they were all the eldest,
which is an Austrian cufetjm. Their
arms were five golden arrows. By a re
markable coincidence, an ancient writer
predicted that Charon, who, according
to the old myth, ferried people over the
Styx, or river of death, and who gets his
pay from the passengers, would have a
large income in the year 1855, and in
that year Nathan, the eldest, and Solo
mon and Karl all died. Everybody ex
peo'.eJ, as each one dropped off, to learn
at least the searets of that enormous
banking-house. But there was not the
smallest chance to look into their big
looks. Another Rothschild stool ready
to tike them from the dead man's hands.
The firm is a dynasty. You can leirn
from it only that it has a secret of mak
ing money.
One of the great st oVes of the Roths
child house was ma le when Nathan, tLe
L mdon taaker, and an English citizen,
followed close in the rear of Napoleon,
in 1815, as if he foresaw the fall of that
giint. The sun ha 1 not set on the bat
tle of Waterloo before the banker wa
well oa lis way to London. He bough
En jlish consols, at that time very low in
price. When Londcn heard the gr-)ai
nws, consols rote and Rothschild sold.
Tuis trausaction was entirely Rjths-child-like.
In their transaction?, chance
is eliminated as much, perhaps, as i
is impossible in human affair?. The
conception of these grand schemes are
clear and simple, however vast. The
acoompli-hment alone is difficult, be
cause it requires a rapid glance over the
wbo'e fiel.l and largo capital. But there
is in them indications of genius. In
most of these first great operations theie
is the peculiarity of Christopher Colum
bus' famous egg trick. Dollars, like
soldiers, need ti be hurled en masse
and at e nee against a designated point.
The Rothschilds in this respect have
been the greate-t captains cf the century.
Capital has duplaced meu iu the
world of industry. Forraerlv a man was
a producer or a negotiator, a borrower
or a leuuer. Jow, by the substitution
cf capacity, he may be all of these at the
same time. In Belgium and Spain the
Rothschilds are producers of coal and
quicksilver. By virtue of the railroads
they own they are also carriers; to-day
they will be the largest bnyers, to-morrow
the largest sellers in Europe. Spec
ulation is the fairy of the ninetesnth
century, and the Rothschilds are its
godsons. Life at the present day has
oeen aimo.t tripled in intensity. A man
who dies at forty years of ace has cer
tainly lived more than centenarians of
the seventeenth century.
Money no longt r has a country. The
Rothschilds would lend it to Beltrium
and to Holland when they were mutual
enemies; to Austria and to Italy; to
France and to Germany; to Antonelli or
Victor Eraauuel. Though empires go
down with a crash, the house of Roths
child remains unmoved. They furnish
the money to make war; they furnish it
to mke peace. The conqueror owes
them for his guns; the conquered owes
them for his ransom.
Only onee was there any disagreement
known to have arisen between them.
When Naples ceased to be a capital the
Baron Adolphe de Rothschild removed
his banking house from the city, and
demanded, in cash, his share of the com
mon funds fifteen millions. But, per
Imps, recollecting the oath required by
the founder of the house, the affair wu
nrruugtd, and the different Rothschilds
in nil times of confusion and trouble
Lave continue to utter tho same distinct
watch woul of business, even as at night
the clockR of large cities, regulated by
one bnud, strike the hours at the ennie
moment.
When steam and electricity came into
use tho former great stride i f pecula
tion were no longer possible. But the
Rothschild anticipated these inven
tions. The Buron Jhiwb, at Faris, it
is sa'd, hastened to soize nnd ut?e these
new levers, which otherwise would have
destroyed ltim. He was the principal
projector of the French railways, and is
said to havo wept tears of joy on seuding
the flrr-t telegram tj Sau Fi'nucisco. Do
had calculated the difference cf time
between Taris aud Snn Fiancisco, and
knew thnt the answer would come elur
ing tho dnv. He awaited it in feverish
t-ileiiee. It came at tho hour he had
calculated.
Tho Rothschilds are, for the most
part, Jews. The tomb of tho Talis
family is opposite that of Rachel in the
cemetry of Fere Lachaise. An " R " is
sculptured iu relief on the white stone
ol the monest chnpel. The mclosure m
front is sown with pebbles. Every Jew
who visits a grave leaves a stone.
The project of buying Palestine and
reinstating the Jews has been attributed
to the Rothschilds, but as they have
never taken any. steps towardit.it is
probable that they either never thought
of it or speedily abandoned it.
Many stories are told of their shrewd
ness, and while some of them true, more
are legendary.
One of the best known is that of the
Paris banker, who, when two commun
ists entered his bank and demanded
that he share his property with them,
gave them each a Ave franc piece and told
them that was their share as near as he
could calculate it.
It was a Rothschild, too, who, while
playing cards, was much annoyed by
another player, wLo stopped the game
in order that be might hud a piece of
money that had fallen upon the carpet.
Rothschild thereupon folded a bank
note, lit it and held it for him, eaying,
"There, my good man, hurry np while
I hold the light."
'Home, Sweet Home.''
The "Tile Club" (of young New
York artists), recently went on a trip to
the eastern end of Long island, which ,
trip is commemorated in Scribner'a
Magazine. We quote the following
about the home of John Howard Payne:
Payne declared that he had first heard
the tune of Home, Sweet Home" from
the lips of a Sicilian peasant girl, who
sang it artlessly as she sold some sort
of Italian wares, and touched his fine
ear by the purity of her voice. It is
pleasant to think he aid not crib it from
any old opera, but had a certain propri
etorship in the air, as well as the words,
of the mo-it popular song extant.
The "noma' he was thinking of, as
he traced the deathless lyrie in some
liondon rookery, was undoubtedly
Easthampton. A few years later, he
expanded its opening words in a maga
zine inscription of his native town.
" Many an eye wearied with the glare of
foreign grandeur," he wrote (Demo
cratic Review, February, 1838), " will,
ore long, lull itself to repose in the
quiet beauty of this village." The
stenciled! expressions of "foreign
grandeur," and "eyes wearied with the
glare," what are they but repetitions of
the opening of both stanzas the " pleas
ures and palaces" of stanza one "the
exile from home Bplendor dazzles in
vain," of Rtanza two ? Eastbampton is
what supplies the sentiment, the type,
the foil, the contrast of the song. East,
hampton still exists, just as he knew it,
like a vignette perpetuated in electro
type. The " tavern sign in the center
of the road " is gone, though, which he
described "swinging between the two
posts" "while the geese strut with
slow and measured stateliness to their
repose." The geese still parade down
the grassy street, getting between tho
visitor's legs every minute, and -are as
obtrusive as they are in Payne's letters
nd descriptions. Yes it is an unro
uantio discovery, but there cannot be a
doubt of it "tho birds singing sweet
ly "of Payno's ballad, "that came at
my call," were ganders, and their
sweetness was a hiss.
From the age of thirteen; when he
left the ample hearth of his father's
house here, the hymnist of "Home"
was homelebs; that is, until the theatri
cal structure of his latter mouths arose
at the command of the Aftites, and he
lay down to die in his Arabian Night's
palace, hungering for the thatch, "the
sooty chimney-throat of this delicious
cot." "Thatched" cottages, by the by,
were to be found iu Easthampton when
Payne was a youth.
The Hangmen's Record.
Iu the United States during the past
year ninety-six murderers (all men)
were hanged an increase of thirteen
over the record for the previous yesr.
Of this number forty-one were white,
fifty-two colored, two Indians and one
Chinaman. Five were hanged for out
rage, and four for wife murder. There
were seven double executions, four
triple aud two quadruple. Friday re
tains th reputation as hangman s day,
seventy executions having taken place on
that day. The largest number in any one
month was in March; twenty-nve exe
cutions having then occurred. Seventy
per cent, of the hangings wero in the
Southern States, and nearly twc-thirds
of the victims were colored. In Texas
there were ten; Louisiana, nine; Ala
bama, eight; South Carolina, eight;
North Carolina, eight ; 1'ennsylvania,
six; Missouri, Ave; Georgia, five; Ten
nessee, four; Arkansas, four; California,

Ythj thry Explode.
The Scientific American explains the
philosophy of keroseuo lamp explosions.
Road and learn how to avoid danger :
All explosions of pe'roleum lamps are
caused by tho vapor or gas that collects
in the spaoe above the oil. Of oource,
a full lamp contains no gas, but immedi
a'ely onlight ng the lamp consumption of
oil begins, soon leaving a spnee for gas,
which commences to form as the lamp
warms up; and after burning a short
time sufficient gas will accumulate to
form an explosion. The gas in a lamp
will explode only when ignited. In this
respect it is like gunpowder. Cheap or
inferior oil is always tho most danger
ous. The flame is communicated to the
gas in the following manner : The wick
tube in the lamp-burners is made
larger than the wiok which is to pass
through it. It would not do to havo
the wick work tightly in tho burner ;
on the contrary, it is essential that it
move up and down with perfect ease.
In this way it is unavoidable that space
in the tube is" left along the tide of the
wick sufficient for tho flame f rem the
burner to pass down into the lamp and
explode the gas.
Manythings occur to cause the flame
to pass down the wick and explode the
lamp. 1. A lamp may be standing on
the table or mantel, and a slight puff of
air from the open window or door may
cause an explosion. 2. A lamp may be
taken up quickly from a table or mantel
and instant y exploded. 3. A lamp is
takn into an entry where there is a
draught, or out of doors, and an explo
sion ensues. 4. A lighted lump is taken
up a flight of fctuirs, or is raised quiclly
to place it on a mantel, resulting iu an
exp osion. Iu there instances the mis
chief is done by the air movement, either
by suddenly checking the draught or
forcing air down the chimney against
iln name. 5. Blowing down tee chim
ney to extingu'sh the liaht is a frequ- nt
cause of explosion. 6. Lump explosions
nave been caused by using a chimney
broken off at the top, or one that has a
piece broken, whereby the draught is
variable and the flame nnstaseiy. 7.
Sometimes a thoughtless person puts a
small-eized wick in a large burner, thus
leaving considerable space along the
edges of the wick. 8. An old burcer,
with its air draughts closed up. which
rightlully should ba thrown away, is
sometimes continued in rise, ana the
final result is an explosion.

a kindred influence upon the stomach, liver

enables it to withstand malarial epidemics, to
which, when exposed, it might otherwise suc

it to arrest the progress of decomposition. The
man who attends to guard the dead did not
observe a slim fomale figure, which seemed to
arise out of the earth, so silently and suddenly
did it stand there. She was bendiug over one
of the five marble slabs, on which lay the dead
body of a splendid young man he could not

CHAPTER II.
On the previous day Dr. Fordyoe had been
summoned to the house of his next door neigh
bor, Mrs. Remington. Ou his arrival there he
found Mrs. Remington and her daughter Flora
in the agonies of grief. Ou a bed was stretched
the unconscious form . of Clymer, the son of
Mrs. Remington, desperately wounded by ft
pistol ball In the right side.
"Howdiditoocur?"
A moan from the mother waa her only response.
' t)h, doctor, is he dead V whispered Flora.

'''The' surgeon turned down the sheet to examine the
wound, whioh he found of the most critioal oharacter;
and and as be stooped over the patient, heard a violent
rina-insof the bell and knocklri(on the street door. Ue
observed the two ladies shiver, as if from a blow.
A tap at the obamher door soon followed. Doctor
Fordjce himself re .ponded to it, steppicg into the eor

' The otfioers are here with a warrant to arrest onr

Presently two wide awake officials came np. with an

that a few minnUs would close his mortal oareer.
When Lis found that her lover's body had disappear

of what Dr. Fordyoe' objeot bad been in burins her boa
band's body. Gambler and rogue as he had been, she
loved him, and with brains sharpened with destitution
she resolved to make her market oat of the secret,
" I will make those proud oreaturea in silks know that
