But there 1. a strong suspicion thst a sharp game hss been played In connec tion with the sudden and unexplained demand for con federate bonds which obtained a few years ago. According to this explanation, and It la the most reasonable one yet offered, a few abarper* In the north worked np a sensation In England on the pomible value of confeder ate securities. Ingenious stories appeared In tbenewspepersonbothaldMof the water re lative to th* existence of a largssum of money which tho EuropMn agepts ot the confederacy bad in hand at the closo of the war, and which then carafolly concealed, was still within tbo retch of th* creditors of tho dead government. These nowspeper stories were backed up by the work of shrewd agents in London. Finally ir confederate securities was ad vertised In New York, offers rapidly rising from $2 to $15 and Anally to tlH thousand. There offer* were cabled to London, end instantly the unsuspecting English speculator swallowed tha halt. Agencies for the purchase of tbo bonds wars established In New York with corres pondents In Iondon. Orders poured In. In almost every city and town In the south tho . demand for confederate bonds was advertised. Million, of th* faded old lithographs wore , hauled sot of trunk* torn off of his toric are screens, ont of wsr scrap books, end sold at various figure* Some of tho in. noceat owners of this worthless paper wore m badly caught aa the English speculator. They smiled at their friends who Jumped at an offur ♦18 * thousand, end car, fntlyatowcd away their long neglected bonds In the sura faith that their valns would rapidly rise. But euough bund* wsr* offered to All the demand, whloh fell to sere re rapidly as It had rlion. The Engl Isa •peculator had been hi until he hesitated and value of hla cheaply purchased million, before bo Invested further. An organisation of tho Entlleh purchaser, waa formod, with tome titled Briton at Ita head to give It character. The American sharper usually finds hla “softest snap” among the English no bility. Fpraeveral year* past this ramarkabl* organization ha* beau employing agents and attorneys to look up the treasure which I* to pay off confederate bonds, or to daviM torn* way to make the United States responsible.

The story of Mm* Jumelandher estate at Fort Washington beggars the wildest dresms of fancy.

With her he retired to Barb to enjoy hb wealth, saw her hecome a reigning hollo at tha court of tho Beetoratlon, and led a Joyous life until some unfoituutto investments curtailed hb re sources. It became necessary to give personal atten tion to hb New York property; it wss tho wife and not the husband who undertook thb task. Mm* Jumel retained to thb country alone, and so skilfully administered bar hneband’a estate that in 1828 he joined her In New York —once more a rich man, the possessor of a farm wMch b now Included in the beet part of the city.
