THE ROTHSCHILDS. Mayer and the Great House He Founded Nathan and the Other Five pone. From til*' London H'imtx. Mayer Amschel, born in the famous old house in the Frankfort JuJcnga-se in lTl'i, was the real founder of the firm, though his father had been a trader before him, deal ing in curiosities in a small way and travel ing the country with a pack and a donkey. Young Mayer, with the trading instinct which seems the birthright of the Jews, •showed more than their ordinary commer cial precocity. A school-boy of 12, he was already dealing in coins and laying the foundation of a future business connection. His father had meant him for the church, or rather for the synagogue, but the trading spirit was too strong, and he came home to sett le in the Judengasse. He did not stay there long, for his reputation as a man of business recommended him to the wealthy hanking firm of the Oppenheims. They appreciated him, and he had fair prospects of advancement, but with all his caution and prudence he had a dash of the advent urer, and determined to set up upon his own account. Very soon he had a variety of irons in the fire. From buying and selling curiosities and objects of art he quickly devolopea into n banker and finan cier. He impressed all with whom he came in contact with the sense of his capacity. A fortunate aecquaintanee he had formed in troduced him to the Landgrave of Hesse, who intrusted him with the administration of his vast private means, and that proved the turning point of the Rothschild’s own fortunes. The Landgrave, who had made himself specially obnoxious to Napoleon by selling his subjects into the English and Prussian services, fled before the advance of the French. The story of how he gave his treasures into Rothschild’s charge has been told in many ways and with much fanciful embroidery. The facts are simply iliat Rothschild managed to remit the money to his son Nathan, who was already in business in London. After the peace it was all honorably accounted for and duly repaid—principal and interest. The pribity and ability of the Rothschilds were at once extensively advertised. But in the mean time a singularly bold and lucrative specula tion had redounded still more to their credit. The Duke of Wellington, duriug the peninsular campaign, had been suffering from the precariousness of specie supplies. The English government was greatly em barrassed, for no bankers would undertake the responsibility of transmitting them. Then Rothschild came forward and formally undertook the contract on a heavy commis sion. For eight years he is said to have oleard £150,000 annually, and his success may have been due to the international re lations he had already established, for Mr. Reeves hints elsewhere that he had been bribing the French officials. Be that as it may, be gained the confidence of our gov ernment, and the consequence was that he had the profitable charge of remitting the enormous subsidies to the Continental princes in our pay. When Mayer Amschel died, like one of the old monarchs, he sum moned his five sons to his death bed to give them his best advice. The advice was to remain faithful to the Jewish law, to remain united to the end, and to do nothing without consulting their mother. “Observe these three points,” said the dying capitalist, “and you will be rich among the richest, and the world will belong to you.” The sons fulfilled to the letter the precept that enjoined harmonious combination; till lately they kept all the money in the family by intermarrying, but they achieved their financial supremacy by separating and start ing new centers of activity in some of the chief capitals of Europe. While the eldest son remained in Frankfort his four younger brothers were directing houses in London, Paris, Naples and Vienna. They controlled the bourses, as they had the ear of the cabinet; they were called into consultation when loans had to be raised in contemplation of breaches of European peace: they are supposed to have sometimes averted wars by simply refusing to draw their purse strings; and once, as a condition of furnish ing indispensable supplies, they forced an unwelcome finance minister on the tyrant at Naples. Asa rule, however, they seem to have conducted their financial arrange ments from the purely business point of view; and they insured tho success of their speculations and the accuracy of their cosmopolitan information by establishing agencies with leading mercantile houses all over the world. Naturally they provoked envy and jealousies. But in their united strength and with their admirable organi zation it became difficult to compete with them and impossible to crush tneni. The few speculators who had the courage to make the attempt invariably had reason to repent it, It was only comparatively recently, when the conditions of State finan ciering had changed and the States were appealing directly to their subjects, that an international coalition could be formed sufficiently formidable to hold the great monopolists in check. The remarkable feature in the rise of the Rothschilds was the thoroughly cosmopolitan manner of managing their business. They had no prejudices, no principles and no patriotism. For example, “while on the one hand they provided supplies for the armies of Napoleon, on the other they raised loans for his foes.” Nathan Mayer, the first head of the Eng lish firm, was the ablest of the five sons. Millionaire as he was, his lot was far from an enviable one; his hot pursuit of money gave him neither leisure nor rest; he direct ed everything. His couriers were coming and going at all hours, and even w-hen he retired for the night he was never sure that he might not be roused up to read and answer important dispatches. He had staked everything on the permaneneeof the peace of 1814, and during “the hundred days” his anxiety was intense. Eager to know the best or the worst as soon as possi ble, he had driven out to an eminence commanding the battlefield. In the joyful reaction after the decisive repulse of the French, his overstrained strength was ready to succumb. But he hurried back to Brus sels, and thence to England, bribing the Boulogne fishermen to put to sea in danger ously tempestuous weather. He had his t ime of anxiety, but, worn out as he was, he resolved to recoup himself for it. Next morning he was standing in the Stock Ex change under the familiar pillar. His face was sad to a degree, and to those who —ventured to to question him he did not hesitate to con fide the defeat of the Prussian forces at Ligny. ’ His known brokers were selling freely, and alarm soon passed into panic. Meantime secret agents were busily buying, and the sums he cleared must have been almost in proportion to the number of victims his strategy ruined. Nathan Mayer was anything but an attractive character, as lie must have been a miserable man. His disposition was not only money getting, but grasping; on the strength of his enormous riches he permitted himself almost brutal license of speech; by his will he did not be queath a shilling, even to those who had labored indefat igahly in his service, and as he had allowed himself no leisure for recrea tion he lived in perpetual terror of assassin ation. His son. Baron Lionel, who inher ited much of his fat her’s business talent, im presses us more favorably. He, too, bad rough and rattier repulsive manners, and latterly he was racked with pstn and irrita t ion by rheumatic gout. But he was benevo lent in the best sense of the word, and always ready to reach a liberal hand to the deserving. LiKo his father, he was entirely given over to business, although uufortun-* ntoly he did find time to catch rheumatism in the hunting-field. Like his father, he had such faith in nts own towers of administra tion that he insisted on superintending everything personally. But if he had the passion and acquisitiveness which made the fortunes of his family he had the charity, which covers a multitude of sins. He gave munificently with both hands, and it is be lieved that much of his beneficence was anonymous. Baron James, who established the Paris branch, was one of the shrewdest and most eccentric members of the family. When floating the Northern railway of France he called very near the wind in point of honesty. It was what may he charitably described as his extreme astuteness which provoked the most formidable combination ever formed against the Rothschilds. The Barings, the Hopes of Amsterdam and other important European houses organized a syndicate which successfully contested the concession of the Russian railways. As an admirer of the arts lie went to Horace \ ernefc to have his portrait painted. Vernet named 4,000 francs as the price. The baron tried vainly to beat the painter down, till at last Vernet threatened to treble his charge if there was another word on the subject. “Am Ito paint, it or am I not?” The baron bolted from the studio, thinking that the audacious artist must be mad. “Wait a minute,” cried the artist after him. ‘‘l will do your portrait for nothing.” And he painted him on the gigantic canvas of “La Sinaia” as “a hideous looking Jew running away with a casket of jewels and money, his face expressive of the most sor did avarice.” But it is only lair to given companion art story which tells as much to the art patron's advantage, although it may he apocryphal. He had consented to jtose to Eugene Delacroix for the head of a beggar. One of Delac oix’s pupils, mistak ing the ragged model for what he seemed to be, slipped a trifle into his hand. Roths child thanked him, kept the money, and made inquiries. He learned that the young man was a genius, but poor, and had to labor hard for the means of educating him self. Shortly afterward the young fellow received a letter stating that charity hears interest and that the accumulated interest on the amount, he had so generously given was represented by the sum of 10,000 francs, which were lying at his disposal in the office in the Rue Lalitte. Tartars As Boycotters. Odessa Dixpatch to the London Daily AVtcs. I should not for a moment imagine that the Grim Tartars have learned much of the Irish agrarian science of boycotting through the channels of the Russian press, as the Russian vernacular is only orally and very imperfectly understood among them. Yet they have developed during recent years a system of boycotting the German proprie tors in the Crimea which appears to have been highly successful. The lands formerly apportioned by the Crown to some 30,000 Tartars in the Crimean Peninsula have through the nomadic habits and ignorance of these people been gradually and easily acquired by the princely and other large proprietors for what may, in these instances, lie very appropriately termed old songs. These lands have been sub leased in most cases to the übiquitous and enterprising Germans. All these estates are worked by Tartar labor, and so long as the proprietor was there or a descendant of one of the old Tartar chieftain families, things went smoothly. A German agriculturist with capital, a few years ago, discovered in these broad tracts and cheap bargains a promising field for enterprise, with the prospect never absent from the Russo-German’s vision of gradually ousting and supplanting the native. This, however, required time, but the German reckoned on the long-suffering patience of the industrious, sober, ignorant and solid-looking Mongolian laborer. The result has proved the German proprietor to have been a long way out of his sanguine reckoning. In many cases he acquired estates covering areas of from 50,000 to 200,000 acres, but the entry of the German into the possession of his' < state* was the signal for a rapid migration of every Tartar laborer and herdsman. The Tartar pro prietors, who were his neighbors, refused the services of horses, oxen and camels at any price, no matter how tempting. The storekeepers In the neighboring town and fail’s would not supply the Germans' wants. This Tartar boycotting has now succeeded in driving the greater number of German pro prietors to abandon their estates and hold ings as ruinous loss, s. The Governor of the district has now submitted a project to the imperial government for the repurchase of these lands, and their division among the Tartars. It is further proposed that in ad dition to these Crown grants of small hold ings to some 25,000 Tar.ars the government shall in all necessitous cases supply each Tartar family with a few necessary agricul tural implements and a yoke of oxen. There is little doubt that this project will not be accepted by the government. Here we have the much-abused Russian auto cratic government conceding the rights of the native Tartars to the soil of which they were formerly dispossessed by foreigners, and making that concession in consequence of a successful system y agrarian boycot ting. It were too nffleh to expect that Lord Salisbury’s government would stoop to follow in any wise the example here by a power which his lordship still considers to be beyond the pale of Western civilization; and yet he might do so with salutary effects in Ireland. King of the Dudes. From the New York Sun. Mr. Robert G. Hilliard stepped from the door of a cab yesterday afternoon, dismissed tho driver with a haughty gesture and a handful of coin, and stood on the corner of Twenty-sixth street aud Broadway in the attitude of ueep and sombre meditation. Several of the loungers in Delmonico’s moved nearer the window and gazed at the new king of the dudes. One of them, Mr. Edward Saportas, who is an old subject, and an ardent imitator of the ex-King Berry Wall, breathed hard as he gazed over Bar ton Key's shoulders at the successor of the former monarch, and he whispered hoarsely: “Where’s Berry Wall?” “Haven’t seem him,” said Key shortly. “Waiter” shouted Mr.Saportas, nervously, “Go in the other room and see if Mr. Wall’s there. If he is send him in here at once.” The waiter hurried in and came out with the information that Mr. Wall had not been there at all during the day. Then Mr. Saportas fell into a deep and earnest inspec tion of the man who stood on the comer en gaged, apparently, in a futile effort to a date. w Mr. Hilliard was quite unconscious of the excitement he created. Ho had on a pair of gloves that were made to order by Jones, and which are said to have thrown Mr. Wall into a state of acute and bitter woe when lie first saw them on exhibition in the window of a glove store. He made every possible effort to buy them, but he was un successful to the last. They were a pale salmon tint, relieved by white stitching. Mr. Hilliard’s shirt was a groundwork of dead white, with a dashing superstructure of green bare. He wore sea-green emeralds for sleeve buttons, which contrasted well with the shade of the shirt, and ho wore a delicate olive-green scarf around his neck. His collar, of course, was white. In the scarf was another shade of green in the shape of an aquamarine stone. His waistcout looked like oil-cloth, buteit was not. It was a beautiful pattern of squares and bars, one molting into the other. It was green and white, with a terracotta shade in the binding. It was made of linen. The actor’s coat was an extraordinary bit of poods, which it is said cannot bo duplicated m New York. It was black, with big wool ly knobs Stic sing out aii over it, and it fitted faultlessly. The trousers were wide and tho seams ironed high. The overgaiters were of the peculiar shade of terracotta known as moose skin, the shoes varnished, of course, aud the hat a terracotta Derby. Even Mr. Hilliard’s cane was enameled with the various shades of terracotta and green that permeated his attire. He stood for a moment in deep contemplation, and then, glancing at his watch, bailed a hansome and was whirled away. That was tho only glimpse that the Delrnonico idlers had of the new king of the dudes yesterday afternoon. Only Thirty-six Per Cent, of those who die from consumption inherit the disease.
