Captain-I like Americans, but they

Captain-Oh, yes, I've been West.

Hard by old London's Stone, that tim
worn relic of the eleventh century, which
the curious may still gaze upon as it
stands protected from impious hands by
a light iron railing III front OF the old
church in Cannon street, barrow lane
runs northward connecting the busy
highway with King William street. Half
way up this lane of St. Swithin, an unpre-
tentious thoroughfare some two hundred
yards In length, with ten foot roadway
and narro;F sidewalks, q wide archway,
protected by handsome iron gates, gives
entry 10 noble courtyard. A well kept
drive, daily rolled and often relaid with
the brightest of red gravel, sweeps in .
circle round the open court, embracing
counter piece the jaded LoIdoners NOV
ing up or down the lane will often pause

In the rear of the courtyard stands
substantial but somewhat sombre looking
building three stories high. It is built of
a gray stone, and, unlike the somewhat

fnancier of all the Rothschilds, past and
present. To write of the petty princes
he saved from financial humiliation by
timely loans of the European govern
ments whose promises TO pay" he ne
gotiated when vast amounts had to be
raised at short notice on the security of
revenue Or the railroads he capitalized
or the enterprises he foated, would be
to fill book of portentous volume. For
many years past British investors have
had complete confidence in any loans,
bonds or enterprises foated by the Roth
schiids and as this confidence has never
been abused by tbs great Anglo Dutch
fnanciers, the magic name of Rothschild
is to-day all powerful to sacure unlimited
financial backing for any new venturs to
which it may be lent.

NATHANIEL.

Some ten years sgo the old baron
passed away full of years, leaving behind
him gigantic fortune. His three
nephews, Nathaniel, Leopold and Alfred,
sons of Baron Lionel Rothschild, inheri-
ted the city business, while his vast riches
IN cash, lands, house property and secu
rifles were for the most part bequeathed
60 his daug liter, the Countess of Boss bery.
The three London Rothschilds of to-day
bear little resemblance, either in face,
former business habits, to either their
late father or uucle. The elder Nathaniel,
lately created Lord Roths child, is far
seeing man of great business capacity,
and under his guidance the great house
still maintains its supremacy in the world
of London finance. He is, however, a
man who devotes his attention only to
great enterprises, and consequently q
vast amount of minor business of a very
profitable nature that used to be executed
By the Rothschilds has late flowed into
other channels.
His lordseip excels as diplomat and
his relations with Glaistone's govern
ment during the Egyptian affair were
close and invaluable TO his house. Sim
pie British taxpayers, who paid any at
tention to the part England was playing
in the khedive's affairs for year or tSo
previous to the slaughteriDg of the heroic
Gordon at Khartoun, roundIy asserted
that her expensive interference in Egypt
would nerer have been push ed so far but
for the vast interests of the RothsehiId's
and their clients there at stake. The head
of the firm does not inherit his uncle's
love of sport: he neither breeds nor runs
thoroughbred race horses and il rarely
seen in the hunting field, though in per
functory manner he still keeps up the
famed pack of stag-hounds. His counsel
in financial matters is highly esteemed
by her maiesty's government, and his life,
like that of his predecessor, is devoted to
money getting. More Jewish in his ap-
pearance than either of his brothers, his

BARON MEYER.

Potent as has been the name of the
house in London financial circles for q
century and more, the late Baron Meyer
during his reign in st. Swithin's lane
largely extended its operations and if
possible EXCHANGED it's credit. Easy to
approach and simple in manner, with
ont trace of haughtiness or Impotence
ia his deneanor, this daily handler of
lllions afforded striking contrast to
the average London banker, wtro Is to-
day as in the past as difficult of access,
save to those provided with gilt-edged
introductions, as the emperor of China
or the lord lieutenant of Ireland. The
baron was very regular in his attendance
at the banking house and during bust
ness hours was accessible to all comers,
whether on business bent or seeking his
aid or advice. His charity was unbound
ed and he was at times absolutely over
run by the penurious, 10 whom, if deserv-
ing, his purse-strings were ever open.
His one relaxation from the cares and
worriment of business was an almost
lavish indulgence in the short Of horse
racing, but his interest was confined to
Che pure elements of the sport, the trails
of speed and endurance of the thorough
breds; for him the gambling arena had
no charms.

the victory of his colt Favornius in the
Derby of 1871, and of his FLY Hannah,

English royalty and the Rothschilds have
always got on very we'll together, and one
might be pretty sure Of meeting two or
