the effect that II James Fisk, IT,, had net
been killed when he Was, he would have be-
come street loater, that his capacity a.
business man had been vastly OVerrated, and
that he wa just on the eve Of ilaanclal col
lapse, Nothing colld be absurder than this
10 any one at all acquainted with Flsk's
shrewdness, persPlcaclty aud extraordinary
executive ability,
On moral grounds, no one could we'll de-
fond Fisk but merely rs = man Of business.
independent OF principle and Integrity, much
may be said In his behalf lie was . born
mOney-m4ker, u there syer was one. Il was
as natural for him TO make money aa Il WAS
" breathe, or boast, or SwAggeT. He under
stood his kind-at least lis weaknesses. He
was very far-slghted, and had a keen under
standing OF character, whenever his inoTdi-
nete vanity was not involved.
1t was cOarsely and pToianely sald OF Fisk,
on the announcement Of hls death, that he
had gone 10 TOphet, and would soon get up a
corner In birthstone. Barring the brutality
OF the jest, the spirit Of II was true In respect
10 Fisk.
Had Fisk been left on an uulnhahlLed Island,
where he could have had only monkeys fol
companions, Am sure he would have con-
triYed some means 10 turn them 20 his profit
| even u he had been compelled 10 buy them oil

He had, In an eminent degree, all the men.

q fortune. No operator In Wall street was
more aslutei quicker 10 perceive any possible
advantage In trade, or more capable OF
forming profitable combination for any pur.
pose OF gain. The most experienced and
| prosperous speculatOrs stood Ia awe OF him
and u has frequently been said, with truth
thet he was the only man In New York who
ever frightened Cornelius Vanderbilt, and
cOmPelled him 10 back down"
Omitting the ethical element In Fiak's con.

cannot be denied that he had q genius Tor

An Injunction TO Heat ala sSRdIRE a Lad
Back TO the IBdasIFinI school.
Julia Bart and CAtharine DpnohO yesterday
afternoon MED a bill In the special term through
5. ID. Williams, asking the court TO intervene
and prevent lad being sent Ia school near
baltimore. They show no relationship or other
interest In the lad other than sympathy. The
bill sets forth that In November, 1871 one An.
drew BOylsn died In this city, leaving an orphan
child Of the name OF John A: Blylen, owner Of
some 70 900 Of real estate and 70 $50 Of personal
estate In this city. W. j. Warren, the guar.
dian OF the orphan John A., who at tue time Of
his fathers death was about ten years Of age,
placed the lad at the Industrial school, near
Baltimore. The bill alleges further that "the
father on his death bed requested that the son
be placed At n good boarding school and be
properly educated and cared lur and at tho
same time he instructed his son that II he dill
not like his guardian (WaTfeD) he could choose
another guardian when he wal fourteen years Of
age II further alleges that the boy was
treated haTshly and cruelty ut the lndusi rial
school, and hal several times escaped thsTefrOm,
WherFupOh Warren, Notwithstanding the tears,
Temonstrances and humble petitions Of his SAID
ward, has allowed and permitted one Edward
Simms to take fUTclhle possession OF him after
he had escaped 10 this city and, compel him To
return to SAID school, which proved TO be place
OF hard labor rather than a school. And whom
the said Slmms had gotten possession OF the
body OF the said John Andrew BOylen, 10 70,
Spouse to his cries and tears not 70 be carried
back, he threatened that n no ran away iTom
the school again he would put HIN In box.
The petitioners ma Ike oath that they believe
this upon the statement Of tho boy and from a
personal inspection Of his body, which shows
marks OF strokes upon his person, and partial
deafness OooaSi0ned by violent blows and cuff
upon his head, by the condition Of his clothing
and general Appearance, and from bis unWil
lingness 10 90 back to tho Industrial school,
saying that "hO would sooner kill himself than
40 back there" They ask that Mossrs. Warden
and Slmms he restrained from sending the boy
back TO school, and that Warren DO required Ia
show cause why he shOnh not be removed from
the kuardlAnHhlp. Judge Humphrey made /
preliminary order requiring the defendants Il
answer within ten days.
