NJ. ROrHsCHILDs MINOR DEVICES.
We have at various times given instances Of the man
in which this millionaire contrves to make profitable
speculations Of minor character. We have shown how
he made 3T6 900 francs At time from the Northern
Railroad by Withholding payment Of an nsalment until
the company was driven to issue bonds, which
gold at half price, bought by him, and used at their
| full value In the payment OF that instalment.
We have shown what snug thing he makes by appro-
prlatng to himself unclaimed shares which should 70 TO
the account Of profit and loss and what penchant he
had for making liberal presents Of property belonging 70
the Company And have further glanced at his ope-
raons in the exchange Of bullion facilitated by hts
ming the privilege Of Transporting free of express
the Northern Railroad TO the confines Of Belgium and to
the ports Of France To day we propose to give few
other facts Of the general character just for the
purpose Of showing TO what contemptible-some might
say fraudulent-measures this Baron Rothschid sioops
| in his profession Of money making.
The Northern Railroad Of France arrangement
with Of the Belgian railroads for the trans
poraton OF travellers and freight and also with the
South Of Eng and Railroad that each Of these compa
nes receives the fares for the other and gives what
known In the United States as "through tickets. "
] But the extent OF the lines OF these two
| Belgian and English railroads Is much less than
! that Of tho Northern Railroad OF France, II
follows that The former always indebted 10 the latter
under this arrangement Well, In regulating their mu
,ua accounts might be supposed thai they would cor
respond directly with each other and save the expense
of commission Bu. no, NJ Rothschild has made q diff

requires that Belgian and Englsh mpanies shall pay

Brussels and London which he makes the latter com

annual movement amounts TO about 1000 o0of, and hi
commission thereon Is 20 c0of For years past ht
has been carrying this game he does the every

land. The following example Is sufficiently striking
In 1855 the Northern Railroad Company had purchased

in Scotland. The merchant might have drawn directly
on the company for that sum- FREQ OF expense. But

In another matter Of not less Importance. Ho Ia

Bu, here is another transaction OF his, which, al

This Is the way that Mr. Rothschld exploits with tn,
Northern Railroad Company and manages tho affairs o.
the sbarthoders Nor does no copine himself to grand
speculailops He does not disdan the meanest, bu
avas himself OF every occasion 10 benefit himself hi
