.Jay Cookies .Whole Islands,

The usually intelligent editorial writer in
Hdrper'S Weekly, in the course OF a recent arti-
Gle on national finances, while ComplImenting
Mr. Jay Cooke as tnanCier, and fully Justify
ing his Sudden wealth." makes two ludlcrous
blunders. 1t says:-"Jav Cooke himself was a
banker in the smallest kind OF a way in ONO
when MIR. Chase Inalgurated his system of
finance We beg to INFORM Harper that
Jay Cooke let his home IN SanduskV, Ohio,
when a lad, and entered a lirst-class banking
house in Philadelphia. He became partner at
an age when most young men are glad to oe
trusted ClerBs, and from that time to the present
he has been a successful banker and fnancler
in the city OF Brotherly Love and not exactly
''in the smallest kind OF way" either.
Further on the Harper editor, In enumeratinS
several evidences OF Mr.. Cookies enormous
wealth, Says that wealth has enabled HIM 'to
purchase lsands.n We have also observed in
several CoppeThead journals the stunning charge
that Jay Cooke has 'made enough out OF the
Government TO buy a IUbOie island in Lake Erie"
One would inler that this "Whole island" ust
be at least as large as Ausira a. and as costly as
q small kinedom. The luGiCIOuS character of
this blunder viii be understood when we say
that Gibral ar leland, of Sandusky, now the de.
lIehtIul summer home of Mr. Cooke, cost that
gentlemen all OF three thousond dollars and
that island contains lust seven acres Glib.
ralar is row, OF course, without a prce, the
wealth OF It's owner and the excellent taste OF
is manager, together with its historic interest,
having rendered it most lovely and attractive

NJ. THEIRS AS A WAR PRoPHET.-M Theirs is
certainly now entitled to call himself prophet
Events have realized almost to the letter what
ne predicted in the Corps Leglslatif go lately as
May last, When III the course OF the debate on
the address, he sald:-'If Prussia shall be sue
cessiul IN the coming war, do not say that sne
will at once become mistress OF fifty millions OF
German subjects, Oh no; she has but fourteen
millions now, ard from fourteen to fifty is too
large q Journey TO be Cccompshed without
some relays. But II is certain that Prussia will
annex some of the Northern German States and
will establi,h her influence over the others. She
will then have one part OF Germany under her
direct authority, and the other part under her
indirect authority; and under the new order OF
things Austria will be protected power. And
then, allow me to tell you, there viii be accom-
plsbed a grand phenomenon, which events have
been tending to for he last century. We shall
see the German empire reylye-that empre or
Charles v, the seat of which was 70 o'merly at
Vienna, and will now be at Berlin-an empire
which will closely hem in our frontiers; and,
10 complete the analogy, this empire OF Charles
V, instead of being supported by Spain as in
the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, Will be
supported by Italy.'
