! SEeREcY IN BUSINESS cause of
Rothschild's great advantage in his bust
ness transactions was the secrecy with
which he shrouded them, aud the tnrtu-
ous policy with which he msled those
the most who watched him the keenest
If he possessed news calculated to make
the funds rise, he would commission the
broker who acted on his behalf to sell
| half million. The sheal of men who
usually follow the movements of others
sold with him. The news soon passed
through the momentary circle that Roths-
child was "bearing" tn (, market, and
the funds fell. Men looked doubtingly
at one another; general panic spread;
bad news was looked for: and these uni
ted agencies sunk the price two or three
per cent This was the result expected /;
and other brokers, not usually employed
by him, brought all they could at the
reduced rates. BY the time this was ac-
complished, the good news arrived the
pressure ceased; the funds rose instantly;
aud Mr.. Rothschild reaped his reward.
There were, however, periods when his
gigantic capital seemed likely to be seat
tered to the four quarters Of the globe.
He lost half a million in o. e English
operation; when the French entered
Spain, in 1928, he was also in the utmost
jeopardy; but, perhaps, the most peril
Gus position in which he was placed was
with the famous Polignac loan, although
his vast intelligence saved him, and plac-
ed the burden on the shoulders of others,
With this, nevertheless, he suffered great
ly, as the price fell thirty per cent

gard Il Il is true there have been
large war meetings in Richmond, which
have 6een addressed By Davis, Hunter,
and others in the most infammatory
manner. Bot these meetings argue, to
our niuds, anything else than enthusiss
asm. The mere fact that JEFF. Davis
felt called upon 70 address those meet
ings ~ he did, shows that be was conf
dent the result Of the conference would
prove unsatisfactory 20 his people
Fearful of the reaction that would take
place, when all their hopes Of peace
were thus dashed to the earth, aud It's
consequent dependency, be called a
public meeting to stimulate them with
passionate appeals and artfuI and de.
eeitful promises It is not little sig
ni6cant, too, that we hear of none Of
these enthusiastic meetings and exraor-
dinary ehthusiasm, save 10 Richmond.
The exlremities are cold Arouad the
heart alone is the hattering of departing
life preeep,ible. Soon the whole organ
ization will be dead, and corruption set
in. Mr. Davis, BY his frantic rubbiugs
and stimulating uostrums may produce
the ssmblanee Of returning animation,
but be will not materially retard disco
iution Death has placed its seal upon
the Confederacy.
How digni6ad is Mr. Lincoln course
when conirastsd with that of JEFF Davis
While fhe latter is harranguing tho
moo in front Of the spottswood House,
the formsr sends in to bis Congress
clear and statesmanhke account OF the
conference, and leaves the people TO
draw their own conclusions in reference
to i. He does not attempt to interpret
its action for them; and that he does
not, may be received as good evidence
that be at Least thiaks there is no neces-
sity for t. Nor Is there The people
correctly understand that the object Of
the Confederates was 70 secure az
armistice that they might recaperate /.
their strength and consolidate their
forces and the frmuess with which Mr..
Lincoln exposed and defeated their |

proyai Of every patriot Every day bat |

At Richmond, the War meeting of
Thursday was all speeches Of furious
character, informing the people that the
CouiederAcy was in danger, bot could
be saved by the efforts Of the people. A
preamble and resolutions we're offered
and adopted with much applause. The
preamble calls the war one Of conquest
by the United States aud OF defense by
the rebels, aud denounees Lincoln's re-
cent proposition for peace as debasing.
Hence, the following are the resolutions:
ResoiUeI, That events have occurred
during the progress OF the war, which
have confirmed our original intention to
strike for Independence, apd that With
the blessing OF God, We viii never lay
down our arms till that shall have been
won
Resolred That as so believe our re-
sources sufficient for any purpose, We do
not doubt that we shall conduct the war
successfully, and thereby invoke the
people in tie holicst of all causes to
spare neither blood nor treasure in its
defence
The third resolution thAnks the sol.
diers for their gallsntry and patriotism.
