use the mild :Lod honest-language of the nye- •
Lone, he realized an ample fortune out of the
sticcesdul operations Of his house. His
house "LteingThe most elegant, and his bank

For actny years 140 Itc..hanlived in the Most
luxuriant style, 'having, like a certain other
rich man, "been clothed in purple and 'fine .
linen, and faring sumptuously every day.''

along the avenue in her magnificent eepiipage,
wlich far exeeeds richn - ess. and style that
of the Pre:tlilent of the United States, or that
of any' other gentleman in Wiishingten,. she
looked a vcl•y'sheen, being elite undisturbed
-by any thought that her presence sent.a dag
ger to scores of hearts :whose patrimony, un
lawfully obtained, had contributed to her en
joyment, in the same proportion. t fiat its loss
had added to the woes and wretchedness of
the beholder.
His r e establishment" was upon' Pennsylva

the Capitol. Let us approach and look at it.
