How BOthschiId Brought the Old Lady
Of Th-eadneedIe streei 20 her Manners.

How ROthschiId Brought the Old Lady
Of Th-eadneedie street 20 her Manners.
An amusing adventure is related 80 having
happened to the Bank of England, which hsd
committed the great disrespec. OF refusing to
discount bill Of q large amount drawn by An
solm ROthschiid, of Frankfort, Gn Nathan Roth
schild, of London. The bark had haughtilv
replied " that they discounted only their own
bills, and not those Of private persons" But
they had to do with one stronger than the bank
" Private persons, exclaimed Nathan Roth
schild, when they reported to him the fact,
Private persons y " l will make these gentle
men see what gOrt Of private persons we are q"
Three weeks sfterward Nathan Rothschild-
who had employed the interval in gathering all
the 95 notes he could procure in England and
on the cOntinent-presented himself at the bank
at the opening Of the Office. He drew from his
pOcket-b book q 85 note, and they naturally
co united out five sOyereigRs, at the same time
looking quite astOnished that the Baron Roth
! schild should have personally troubled himself
for such trifs. The Baron examined one by
one the coins, and put them into little canvas
1 bag, then drawing out another NOTE third,
tenth, huDdredth he never put the pieces of
/ gold into the bag without scrupulously examin-
/ ing them, and in some instances, trying them in
/ the balance, as he said, the law gave him the
/ right to do" The first pOcke5 book being emp
tied, and the first bag full, he passed them to his
! clerk, and received second, and thus continued
/ till the close of the bank. The Baron bad en-
/ ployed seven hours to change E2I,0O0. But as
/ he had also nine employees Of his house engaged
1 in the same manner, il resulted that the house of
| R0thschild had drawn G2l0000 in gold from
the bank, and that he had so occupied the tellers
that no other person could change q single note.
| Everything which bears the stamp Of eccen-
/ trieity hiss always pleased the English. They
we're, therefore, the first day, very much amused
at The little pique of Baron Rothsehl1. They,
/ however, laughed less when they saw him re-
turn the next day at the opening of the bank,
/ Aanked by his nine clerks, and followed this
time by many drsys, destined to carry away the
specie. They laughed no longer, when the king
of bankers said, with irOnic simplicity These
gentlemen refuse to pay my bills, 1 rave sworn
not to keep theirs. At their leisure-Unly no
/ tify them that have enough to employ them
for two months ~ For two months -
'' Eleven millions in gold drawn from the Bank
of England, which they have never possessed ~
| The bank toek slarm. There Wss something 70
be done. The next morning notice appeared in
the journals that henceforth the bank would pay
Rothschild's bills the same as their own.
