Singular and Alarming DeveIopements-
Movements OF Queen Victoria ana the
New York Herald.
The "Coursr & Enquirer" is one OF the most origi-
nal, witty fascinating and philosophical newspapers
that ever eminated from Wall street. The celebra-
ted "deyil upon two sticks" who presdes over its
columns, is worthy Of the position he occupies, on
earth above-orin the other place below, as finder
out of potsplans and conspiracies, any shape and
in any quantity.
One of the most recent and most magnificent Of
his Developments, is his discovery OF secret trea-
ty which has been existing for some years between
Queen Victoria, the British government, the Bank
of England and the New York Herald, for the pur
pose of breaking down the credit of the Wall street
financiers, the banks, corporations and sovereign
States of this unfortunate land. We are very sorry
for Vlctoria-poor thing. This secret treaty with
the New York Herald is one of the most naughty
things that we have ever heard alleged against her
characterized there can be doubt of Its truth for
we learn from the very best authority that the New
York Herald is devoured in Buckingham Palace,
Windsor Palace, or Royal Brighton Pavilion, on
the arrival of every steam ship from the United
States Victoria, it seems, cannot get along, even
with Prince Albert and the royal babe, without
regular supply of the New York Herald-but whether
it is to learn the mysteries of fnance-the move
ments of fashion in New York-or the price Of
stocks in Wall street, or all together, left
tirely to conjecture.
Such being the singular admiration which Queen
Victoria entertains Tor the New York Herald, it is
no wonder that the British ministry, whether wing
or tory-or the Bank of England whether interest
is at 81 or Al per cent-should be in some awful
league with the New York Herald, for the purpose
Of causing revolution in commerce, currency, and
coon-skinery in this happy land
But il seems that this combination against the
eminent Wall street stock. obbers and nanciers, is
not confined to the British government, Queen Vic
toria, the Bank of England, or the New York Her
aid, alone. The devil upon two sticks lets US
into more Notwithstanding secrets. We are
vertically informed that General Jackson, Martin
Van Buren,, and vast host of Goths and Van
dals, under the name Of locofocos, including
also our Captain Tyler and the guard, have
been engaged in the project to annoy the great
Wall street inanciers, to break up their schemes,
and to reduce them to small beer and smaller Pota
toes.
This certainly presents one OF the greatest comb-
nations Of royalty roguery, beauty, bravery and ia
lent that ever engendered to put down such hon.
est men as managed the United States Bank-the
Baltimore Life and Trust Company-the North
American Trust Company-the Morris Canal Com
pany and all the other nancers, corporations, and
States who have vanished like the baseess fabric of
vision. 1t is very singular, however, that the Bril-
tish government and the Bank OF England should
encourage a series OF financial measures, pursue
policy which deprives their own people and stock
holders Of their own property. 1t is like the mon
key biting his own nose off,
Seriously, however, the melancholy absurdities of
the "devil upon two sticks" can hardly be ap-
preached by sane man. The Courier appears to be
gradually approaching the last stage Of dotage and
seniliiy. The very eminent fnanciers whose griefs
he speaks forth, would laugh at these absurd raw
ings. Does Mr.. Nicholas Biddle, of the United
States Bank-or Mr.. John Duer, of the Baltimore
Trust Company-or Mr.. Charles Aug lstus Davis, of
ditto or any other of the great nanciers of these
latter days, believe that Queen Victoria the British
Government, the New York Herald, General Jack
son, Captain Tyler &c. brought about the revusion
which caused the institutions they managed to fall
10 ruins 2 They know better than TO say so in per-
son, although their devils may talk so "for the
nonce."
The great revuIsion in this country, was brought
about by the ignorance and presumption Of the very
men who have saved themselves in the general
wreck. The great sufferers the widows, orphans,
and retired citizens. The fnanciers and their ed-
tors have lost nothing for they never had any thing
Look over the assets of these banks and corpora
tions-and see what they are. That is enough.
To remedy all this, the Courier hopes that the
wings may succeed in 1874, and that a new bank
may be created-and other measures adopted, such
assumption OF the State stocks for 500 600 600
We have great mind to 60 for such movement,
in spite of our secret treaty with Victoria and our
vast influence at Buckingham Palace. It is another
experiment In the currency-another expedent in the
credit system-and no accurate data can be ascer-
tanned in any science, without full and ample expe
riments and all sorts Of expedients. We have OBJ
jcctions TO try that same old coon" again, but
shall do 30 on the cash and hard money system.
The contest Of 1884, is the last card of the fnan-
ciersand if that card fails TO catch the odd trick,
and to restore the times Of 1885, shall look out
for the day Of judgment the week after. In the
mean time, TO aid the restoration Of the times of
'36 in this country, we shall endeavor to form new
treaty with Queen Victoria, the British govern
ment, and the Bank Of England. Our influence
with all those powers and personages is awful and
if we can borrow ten or twenty millions of dollars
TO carry on the war, and to discount note
of $4,000 to the devil upon v sticks" we trust
he will go heart in hand with us for noble Harry
Clay-a United States Bank-assumption of State
debts, and the elongation of the credit system TO
the day Of judgment and one renewal hereafter
There will be no more paying OF debts-that's fiat
burglary There will be no more hard-money-
gold and silver are worse than poison The New
