How the ROthschilds Fleece America.

The Rothschilds in 1S6St0Ok block
of United States bonds, amounting to
little over 500, 900 900, at Il time
when gold was away up. The result
was that they paid about s165, 900, 900
on a gold basis.
On these, during fifteen years, they
received Gbout 1850, 00O,O 900 interest
in gold, and now, having already re-
ceived almost twice the sum invested,
as interest, they have claim against
the United States for s4OO, 900, 900 in
coin, with interest ut four per cent,
paid quarterly for thirty years.
On the face of it, then for loan of
s165, 900, 900 in gold, pays in gold
$40, 600, 900 during forty-fve years
That is bad enough for the taxpay-
ers, but it does exhibit the amount of
the profit which the Rothschilds made
out of this little loan of $165, 100000

become 81 ,635, 100000, by this sys-
tenn of compromising, and hold for the
balance the coin bonds of the United

At the expiration of that time the

in their pockets to the enormous sum
of s4, $50 600, 900, and adding to ills

POLITICAL.

Mr.. Justice Field has already the

friendship of many on this side of the
Rocky tains.--Cincinnat En-
quirer (Dem.)
General Butler is reported to have
said that he will support the Green
back nominee for President. He SAYS
there is no better man i'll the country
than David Davis.
We are satisfied that our calculation
was not far wrong when we said that
Tilden was not the first choice of one
thousand men in the State.-Lynch-
burg (Va.) News (Dem.)
New York Express says: Demo
Gratis do not say much against the NOM
ination of Blaine. They keep still,
hoping the Republicans will be Just
foolish enough to 90 and do it"
The sooner Mr.. Tilden and Mr..
Kelly cease to be disturbing elements
the better will the Democracy be
pleased and more reasonably assured
of victory.-Augusta CGa.) Chronicle

The American people honor an out
spoken, honest exponent, no matter
how widely they may differ with him
in opinion, and this is one of the strong
est elements of BayarPs popularity

Summing up the numbef of delega-

by two hundred or more the entire
strength of the Convention. The figu-

Read what prominent Tammany
man said to Herald reporter on the
subject.
y very prominent Tammany man,
and gentleman who has been for
years connected with the Tammany
leader, spoke very earnestly against
the course that is beining pursued by
the Comptroller.
"What will Tammany do should Mr..
Tilden he nominated? asked the re-
porter of this gentlman.
l think that nearly every man will
vote for him and support him." was
the reply. There Is Il general dis
dositon," he continued, ''to question
the political ACCESSIBILITY of boiling a
National Democratic Convention
1t is one thing to bolt State Con
ventiOn, but it is quite another thing
when you come to refusing to suppor
the party candidate for the Preside ncy
Last year we certainly had gooC
grounds for opposing Mr.. Robinson
but fail to see why we should re
fuse to support Mr.. Tilden."
Are there many Tammany mel
who think as you do?"
ANY number of them. These
men are becoming very much dissatis
fled Mt the way things are being man
afed by the Comptroller, and an opel
revolt is prevented in part because o
the absence ola competent leader
There is, however, perhaps NOR,
potent reason for these Dissatisfied
ones remaining quiet now. The Leg
islature is in session, and there is II,
then Tammany-Republican charte
will be rushed through. No man VIII,
holds an office desires to speak whel
by SO doing he is in DANCES of losin:
it."
''Yo on do not think, then, that Tam
many will follow the Comptroller so ia
as to oppose Mr.. Tilden, ifhe he nom
mated"
81 am of that opinion. think the
great majority of men in the organiza
ton will leave the leader oft if he at
tempts to bolt the nomination of the
National Convention.

Must a Statesman First be Lawyer
The PHILADELPHIA Bulletin Of the ?

The Philadelphia Bulletin of the 20,
instant SAYS:
Every now and then, in the senate,
AIr. Blaine is twitted, as he was yes
terday by Mr.. Carpenter, with the
fact that he Is not lawyer. The inn
preston appears to prevail among the
lawyers in congress that a man who
has not been student at law is inca
pable of comprehending and discuss
ing most IF the important public ques-
tiOns that present themselves. This
belief is also prevalent to some extent
among the people, and the result is
that the legislation of the country is
trusted almost entirely to the attorney
class, to the exclusion of practical
men of affairs who represent interests
of gigantic Importance. There is no
foundation fer the belief that n states
man must Dc Il man who has practiccd
law. The greatest statesman now
alive, Mr.. Gladstone, is man who
went from the university directly into
politics. Lord BeacOnsficld is yet an
other example of statesman who
never higgled and haggled in the
courts. Mr.. Blaine is by no means 50
great man as either of these; but he
is no less a statesman because he is
not lawyer The question of the dis
tribution of the remainder of tie
Geneva award, which was up yester-
day in the senate, is question of the
equity and common sense, and also Of
the history of the proceedings by
which that award was made. Mr..
Blaine is quite as capable of forming
an accurate opinion respecting it as is
Mr.. Carpenter OF any other lawyer in
the senate.

The latest reports on the condition
of the wheat crop i'll the Westean and
Northwestern States differ materially
from those made four or five weeks
ago. At that time, the prospect was
that the winter wheat yield the coming
season would be enormous; but since
then the whole situation has been
changed, and it is now believed that
the crop, so far from being abundant,
will fall short of even the general av-
erege. 1t is asserted, in fact, that
more thGn One-half of the crop has
failed in all the Western States. In
Kansas, for instance, the wheat over
large portion Of the state has been
almost entirely destroyed. Iowa re.
ports that the winter planting is an
utter failure, and the spring outlook
is far from good. The reports from
Illinois are fair; IN Minnesota nearly
one-half the spring wheat has been
sOwn, but the acreage has not increased.
Missouri shows Il better condition of
affairs than last spring in regard to
winter wheat, and exhibits an acreage
of nearly 80 per cent. Nebraska has
planted twenty per cent more spring
wheat this season than it did last year,
and Dakota makes an equally favora-
bic report. The next few weeks will
probably coangc the estimates, Sc far,
ut least. rs the spring planting is con-
cerned. According to the best iefor-
nation on the subject, however, there
. ! Tl,,4 .
will be q short one.

The clerk thought it was, and the man
tore up the card, bought another, and after
writing few lines inquired:
