" A man named TorTevoix, beiDg lately placed on hia trial at I oura for robbery, purchased part of the stolen property, but said he had taken care to pay for it in counterfeit coin, "not to encourage dishonesty." Correspondence of the Philadelphia Press. The Komantlo Mosbjr. Warrentcn, Va., October 22. Last Sunday I rode from Alexandria to Bull Run. It was my good for tune not to be captured. I was gaily gaHoping along the turnpike, tbitikiDg of this very individual, little thinking him to be the very devil that would soon ap pear. As I mounted my horee, 1 observed upon the newly whitewashed wall of the buildirg a notice, writ ten in great scrawlirjg letters, similar to what a boy would compare the autograph of Jack Sheppard, writ ten npon the parlor wall of a plundered mansion. The writer begged leave to inform the people of Alexan dria " that he had this day " dined at the Marshall House." On the same line with the date, " September 30, 1863," was plainly written, " Major Mosby." Wondering very much if this bandit had been here, atd if he had slept in the room on the same landing where Ellsworth was killed, I failed to notice an excited cavalryman who was hastily telling me that the indi vidual who now troubled my mind so much might trou ble rue for my purse, my watch nay, more myself. I paid less attention to this information than did Lochiel to the forewarninga of the plaided and bonneted Beer. Soon I came to a company -at the 2d New Jersey ca valry, and was quietly passing, when twenty-five men in gray homespun sprang lrom the Wushes, shot a ser geant through the thigh, and captured Captain Galla gher, alter Bhoo ting Lis horBe. They effected their es cape. The men were not drilled, but one or two had pistols, and I think they should have rescued their captaia. They did not. Two or three trains turntd back, and I was almost persuaded that it would ba im possible to get through to Fairfax. I started, how ever, and galloped through in a short time. Mosby has a den in the forest. He captured a man iu the lOGth Pennsylvania the last time the 2d corps crossed the Rappahannock. 'I he man wandered off into the woods about one hundred and fifty yards, when a little man stepped adroitly from behind the cover of a huge oak, presented a revolver to the soldier's head, and intimated for him to keep quiet. All this time the second corrs was slowly filing along the road, within sight of Mcsby and his prisoner. He. led him by secret and unknown paths to a lair in the mountains, where other prisoners, sut ler's wagons, and other scamps engaged in the same Lclarioua calling. Every cne living in this portion of Virginia would die to serve this man. They are bis look-outs, hia pickets, his videttes. Nothing passes their doors but is seen by them, aad information sent to Mcsby. He gives then a share of the plunder. A few miles from Anandale, on the road leading to Fair fax, stands a comfortable looking frame building, with the usual Southern out-buildings. It ia but little over two months since one of our sol diers stood at the front door of this house acd shot Mosby. Every one thought the wound fatal. A friend took him to Upperville, where he was carefully nursed by Mrs. Mosby, and now he is waylaying people on this same road. He can never be captured by cavalry. All last winter btahrs cavalry was busily engaged in hunting him. We could attend to a bri cado of Stuart's cavalry much easier than he. His haunt is about Upperville. One hundred good men marched there after night, and stationed troand the buildiug, would be sure to take him. In the daytime his friends in the different farm houses are alert and watchful ; he ia warned, and immediately flies to some place inaccessible to cavalry. From the Uichmond Whig. Tlie Correspondence Hltlve tu ttie Kxchaitge of Prisoners. Rrig. General Meredith sent a rejoinder to Judge Ould's recent letter on the subject of the exchange ol prisoners, but it was found to contain so much gross personality that Judge Ould deemed it inconsistent with self-respect to retain the communication. It was accordingly returned to the writer ,without a reply. Thus ends the lengthy correspondenca which has been productive of no other result than the development ol an anxiety on the part of the Confederate authorities to resume the exchange of prisoners, and of a determin ed purpose on the part of the Yankee authorities to postpone that exchange until they have accomplished some BEktanic object, best known to themselves. It is believed that Meredith was the mere tool of Stanton and Halleck in this affair, but he has proved himseif to be a bungler in diplomacy, as well as an adept in calumny. It further appears that Meredith was only an agent for the exchange of prisoners, whilst Gen. Hitchcock is the " Commissi6ner " with whom, properly, the cor respondence should have been conducted, but he hag nt been heard from until now. We learn that Judge Ould has received a letter from Gen. Hitchcock, in his official capacity as " Commissioner for the Exchange of Prisoners," in which the questions relative to the parole of prisoners are d'spassionately discussed. Judge Ould will, of course, seed an appropriate re ply to this communication, and we indulge the hope that the correspond enca thus begun, may lead to the retumption of the exchange of prisoners at an early day. The Condition of the Negroes in the South. An Englishman, who has lived nearly thirty years in the South, calls the attention of a London paper to the following statement : " There were imported into the British West Indies 4,000,000 negro slaves, and when they were manumitted there were 800,000. Into the Southern States 400,000 were imported, and there were, before the war, 4,000,000. The decrease in the former, and increase of the latter are strong facts ; "the climatic irflaence is on the Bide ot the West Indies ; there must then have been a very different treatment, and the views of the anti-slavery party, probably, based upon their own experience, is false as to ours. Again, acurate research gives the number of white communicants in the Southern States at 1,550,000 one in three of the adult population. Of the colored people 500,000 one in four of their adults. Surely the bletsing of God must be with such a state of things." Fort Scmtkr The Bombardment Against it. A Yankee correspondent, writing of the bombardment against Fort Sumter, says : Perhaps no greater example or stern, stubborn re sistance exists in all modern warfare than the per sistent holding of this point by the rebels ; certainly history does not record one. i'o describe the appearance of Fort Sumter in a few words it is like a huge honeycomb. Th only part of the fort which bears any traces of identity is the southwestern angle. The balanceof the southern wall, exposed so long to our fire, is a mountain of pulverized i - i i rrv,r n- n .u :u UriCK UliU LllUIlUl. AUG cuaiciu Ul DCU ItttC ffUlOU is exposed to the fire both of our ship and shore bat teries, is perhaps the most demolished of all : battered and bunged and crushed worse than the countenance of any prize-fighter. The walls are now perfectly able of being scaled, from two to two and a half feet having been shot away within the past eio-ht davs. The defence of Fort Sumter cannot fail to stir in the hearts of our men that feeling of respect which the true soldier always has for a brave and determined loe. The Health of Napoleon. A correspondent of the New York Herald, in speaking of the late appear ance of Napoleon, to witness a balloon ascension, sayj : He wore an ordinary looking brown overcoat, aud the inevitable yellow kids, with which he always covers his hands. 1 was within hve feet of turn as he passed, and kept as near as propriety and a detachment of the Garde de Paris, which immediately gathered about him, would permit me, during the hour that he remained upon the gremcd. It seemed to me that a great change for the worse had come over him within the last year. His head, which he always carries toward the right ! side, seemed to incline more than ever to the shoulder ; and his face, always that of a careworn man, seemed to bear, more than ever before, the marks of physical pain as well as great mental anxiety. The Emperor is a very ungraceful man on foot. His body ia lon but bis legs very short, and if walking he has a sidling, crab like motion. His difficulty is not yet fully developed as "spinal disease," but will probably turn to tint. At present it is a disease of the kidneys and a surgical ope ration performed when he was President of the Repub lic which he smothered in a night. He is liable to die at short notice, and then there will probably be a com motion here. Tennessee. The encouraging news sent us by General Bragg, by way of Dal ton, stems to receive corroboration from in telligence received on Saturday in Lynchburg, coming from East Tennessee by the upper end of the valley, by way of Abingdon. The Lynchburg " Republican," of oaiuraay, says : ' From information, derived la3t night by the West ern train, we think it beyond a doubt that our forces occupy Knoxville. It is reported that our Quarter masters and Commissaries who were run out from that place, are ordered to report there again. If our forces hold Knoxville, Burnside will have to fall back upon Cumberland Gap, which place forms an obtuse angle with Greenville and Knoxville, it being the apex of the longest leg of the angle. From Greenville our forces can reach the Gap before the enemy, and the probabili ty is that be will thus be cut oS froa escape. The EnglUlt Cotton Trade Gloomy Prospects. Theibllowing interesting atd important hrticle is from a recent number of the London Times: While Lancashire s emed to be oscillatinsr between reviving trade and returning famine, and while the pub- a cnuuiug wuu ucrp auiiciy tuc prospeciS Ol llie ensuing winter, we can place before the country an exact and particular account of the progress made dur ing the last two years to that consummation whLh is to render cotlou famines impossible for the future. It Is known that we have proclaimed our necc-isities to the whole world, and have sounded our demand for cotton in every qearter of the globe. In ali our own colonies the production and export of this precious material have been eccunraged by authority ; in all foreign parts we have applied tha stimulous of high prices to increase the supply. This extraordinary demand hps now been maintained for two 'years, indeed the Ameri can blockade has actually existed lorjgtr than that, and could have b?en anticipated with certainty for some time before. Although, therefore, it must be remem bered that cotton planting is not an industry to be matured ia a month or two, we might reasonably look to the results now ascertained with some liveliness of expectation. With the whole world for sellers, and England for a buyer, the market ought to show some promising feature. To a certain extent, indeed, this confidence would be justified, but we doubt whether the predominant feeling will not be one of disappoint ment. We shall present the truth to tha public by stating the exact figures of our vhole cotton import for the first six months cf the present and two preceding years. In 1SG1 the American supply had, for the two quar ters in question, been partially affected. The blockade was in lorce towards the latter part of the period, but then the exports had been pushed eagerly forward in the - leginnicg of tie year under a conviction of the crisis impending. In those six months, then, commen cing with January and ending with J une, 18C1, the raw cotton imported into the United Kingdom i etched the amount ot 0,857,857 cwt. Of thest, 5,874,435 come from the United States of America leeving 983,422 to be supplied from other quarters. Of this remainder, again, India sent C95,542 so that only 258,480 had to be carried to the account of the world at large. The balance, too, cau be reduced still further. As Egypt contributed 206,915 cwt., and Brazil 52,525 making together 258,480 it follows that the miscella neous or scattered imports from" all psrts of the world, except those named, produced but a total of 29,480. This analysis of the account before us will supply some very convenient standards of comparison. In contrast ing th-3 yearn 1852 and 18'J3 successively with 1SC1, we have only to look first to the total imports, next to those from America, then to those from India, then to those from Brazil and Egypt, and, finally, to the bal ance remaining, which will show what has been done for us by the world in general. In 18C2, the total drops down from nearly 7,000,000, as jqst stated, to little more than a million and a half ia lact, from 0,857,857 ts 1,052,733. The decline in the American contribution explains this at once, being nothing less than a fail from 5,874,345 to 37,288. However, this was simply what was to be expected; let ua see how fur and from what quarters the deficiency has been met. India, hislsad ot sending 095,532 cwt., 1,001,427 ; Brazil and Esrypt together, instead of send ing 258,480, sent 471,704. Of the whole balance, therefore, of 1,015,445 cwt., remaining to b2 made up from other than American sources, the miscellaneous ports ports of the world contributed but 142,254, even in 1802 India, Egypt and Brazil providing all the rest. This year the account exhibits similar features. The total imports have increased to an almost nomi nal amount 0 800. The world, therefore, has up wards of 2,000,000 cwt. to supply ; and of these, India furnishes 1,204,833; and Brazil and Egypt, between them, 505,703. It results that our miscellaneous sup plies amount iu the aggregate to 357,373. We censider this somewhat discouraging ; becausa it shows how little at present tke whole world stands for. It is not that the miscellaneous contribulions have not actually increased, lor they have in fact been multiplied above tenfold rising from less than 30,000 to upwards 300,000. But the thing comes to nothing when it is L done. Ihe whole sweep of our drag net does not brin? in as much as we get from the single land of Esypt : and this ia the more remarkable from the astonishing area included. If seems perfectly true that cotton will grow almost anywhere. Even in 1801, when bur reli ance was still upon America, we imported the material from as many us thirty different countries. The next year eleven new sources were added, and sixteen more the year after that. At this minute we import raw cot from sixty different quarters, and yet, after all, our gross supply is scarcely swelled by this multitude ol contributions. It is still upon ne or two chief sources that we depend. If anything were to interfere with the Indian or Egyptian exports, we should have another fall. Ths scatterings" go far next to nothing. Nor do we see any indication of material change. The increase in the India export has been considerable and steady, no doubt, but aot large enough to put us at our ease. Bombay, the chief source of this supply, has rather fallen eff this year. Its exports rose from 650,691 cwt. in 1851, to 847,480 in 1862, but declined to 834,200 in 1863. On the other hand, Bengal has sprung up from some 5,000 to more than 150,000, and Singapore now first appears as a humble contributor. We observe, too, with much interest, that China, which sent nothing in 1801, aad only 113 cwt. in 1802, has sent us 110,409 cwt. in the first six months of the pre3eut year. But there are certain items in the ac count which requires a good deal of explanation. The exports from the Bahamas represent, of course, not home produce, but cotton which had found its way there from the Confederate States, and other contubutions proba b;y partake of the same character. Still it is clear that we get but driblets of this supply. The blockade ofjthe Southern jsorts is effective; cotton is .kept at home; and Lancashire, not withstanding all our tfforts, prastrato in con3eqaence. We do not pretend to say that any evidence at ihis early period of the experiment can be considered conclu sive. PosHibly another year may yield a very different return, bat we do not well see where to look for the improvement. It must be a work of time, and the ques tion is whether even time will do it, for it is price, alter all, which will determine the result. Will India or Egypt , or any other country, or countries together, send us not only sufficient cotton,;but cotton at 6d a pound? If so, then the trade of Lancashire will revive again ; but if the raw material is only to be bought at twice that figure, then we can never find customers for our manufactured article as before. We have hitherto baen underselling the whole world in cotton stuff?, so that our goods founir purchasers in every quarter of the globe, and thus ou? cotton trade was created. It has been sus pended because cotton becomes dear, and it can never be restored until cojton became chiap. We have fair stores ot the material still, but our manufacturers are afraid to work it up at the present price. That is the history of the case, and we fear its aspect is npt much improved by the returns before us. Even dear cotton does not reach us except in driblets, -whereas it is only cheap cotton m abundance that will set the mulj of Lan cashire at work again. TTfwp to the IItght.

From Suffolk and Vicinity. The Petersburg Express learns that the Yankee pickets have again been withdrawn from around Suf folk, but all the roads ere still blockadtd. The town is visited every day by a force from the camp lelow. Sycamore Hill Baptist Church, between Suffolk and Portsmouth, was burned on Sunday night last, either by the r aakees or runaway negroes. Butler, the Beast, has issued an order that all Con federate officers or soldiers caught within their lines with arms, shall suffer 'death. This order is intended to apply to the Confederate scouts, who are reported as Deing ouen about Sutiolk and Norfolk. Mr. B. Jb . Cufcbin, of Suffolk, was arrested last week, and taken to the headanarters of the Yankeo General below," and after beicg detained two days was releafei. The charge against him was, that hia wife and daughters clappea tneir hands for joy when Col Taliaferro enterets tne town wua nis command and cap tured the seven Yankee thieves. The cup and chest of Alexander Selkirk, the world famed Robinson Cruesoe of Defoe, have now become the property of Mr. James Hutchinson, of the Scotch warehouse, 48 Warwick street, Regeat street. London These interesting relics have, up to thi3 time, remained in the poaaession of Selkirk's desceadants, m Largo Fife, where he was born. The cup was put upon a stalk, and mounted with silver, by Sir Walter Scott. It is made out of a cocoanut and rudely carved. The chest is very heavy, and i3 very curiously dovetailed. It is Mr. Hutchinson's intention to exhibit the articles in Lwadon. . HIGHLY IKTRRKSIINCS FROM BRAOO'S ARMY -T11K LOSS OK l,OJKOJTVAI.t,BV AND ITS ttKSUI.TS.' Abmv of Tennessee, 'November 9. I obstrve that a misapprehension has gone abroad with re f'trencc to the situation of affairs tround Chatta nooga, and that by a por'ion of the preps a despondent view is taken of the rela'ive position oi the two armies. It is stated, arnoug other things, that "we have been out -general, d by the nc-my ;" and that "they have be come the masters of 'he siiuation, while the advantages of our position have been completely lost to us." The observation refers to the recent occupation of Lookout a'.Iey oy the rtiDforceneuts of the Federal army. As one tolerably familiar with movements here, and some of the causes thereof, I most respectfully demur to the assumptions above -set forth. Firstly. Lookout Valley has never bfn occupied by a larger force of our troops than one small brigada that of General Law the objnet of which was simply to picket the Tennessee, watch the movemen's. of the rnemy, and cover the retreat ef our sharpshooters and skirmishers (whenever attacked) engaged in harrassicg the wagon trains running to and from Chattanooga in the rear. Secondly. We could not extend our lines beyoud Lockout Mountain to the left, because of the disinteg ration of our forces which would be necessarily involved in such a movement, and the consequent weakening of our lines elsewhere. The difficulty of transporting troopa or supplies across the mountain, within point blank raage of 'the guns of Moccasin Battery, was in itself a bar to the permanent occupation of the Valley. From this cause alone, it wag found almost impossible to furnish regular rations to even the single brigade of General Law, every pound having to be catried at night, in panniers, on the backs of mules.- Thirdly. The advance of the Federals from Bridge port was kuown to General Bragg lrom the start, and progress was reported from hour to hour as the troops marched up the Valley. ( I bis fact I learn from one of the signal officers.) Consequently, there was no sur prise, and no lack of time for adequate preparation to give them battle. Both Generald Bragij and Long stnet were ou the summit of Lookout Mountain, ob serving the movements of the euemy above and below the six thousand at Brown's Ferry, who had already crossed the Tenuersee from Chattanooga, and the eleven thousand more, who had simultaneously started, and were advancing from the opposite direction The ob ject of the Federals was penetrated at once ; and if these ctlicers, laity pofsessco ot all mlormation bearing on the present and future, with plans of operation else where already matured in their minds, adjudged it pru dent to allow the enemy to pas3 unmolested, it wa3 a concession with which no one here or elsewhere, who desires to maintain public confidence, and unite and in spire the popular heart, ought to find fault.fgf Fourthly. Had an attack beea made on the columns ot the en .my while in motion up the valley, beyond doubt it would have precipitated a general battle. lie- inforcemeuts would have poured out of Chattanooga across Brown's Ferry, three times more expeditiously than we could have thrown troops across Lookout Mouutain (through a demoralizing fire), and sweeping dowu on our rear, or even encounnng our front in the valley, would have rendered the result of an engage ment, to say the least, doubtful. Granting success, however, what would have been accomplished ? 'Ihe defeat of two corps of the enemy the retention of a va'ley whose occupation would have weakened our line and been of no permanent or practical benefit the loss of five or eight thousand men without commensurate advantages, at a time when every strong right arm was indispensable to the service, and the grand issue involv ed in the investment of Chattanooga wouid not have been directly effected in the slightest degree. It is tiue that without the valley the Federals would have been compelled to rely, lor their rations on wagon transpor tation over mountain roads, and that eventually they may have been forced to retire to some point nearer their base of supplies ; but this, if not a problematical is a negative result. If the Federals had determined to hold Chattanooga they would have done so in spite of mountain roada and a blockaded railway to Bridge port. We have not, therefore, been " out-generalied by the enemy," and their movement was not " masterly In conception and faultless in execution. It was by a I simple concession on our part, that they were allowed j to pursue tneir purpose re-open communication wicn i Bridgeport and establish themselves for the winter, and future developments will prove the correctness of the udgment by wbica that concession was made. It is an error to suppose tnat tne mere possession ot Chattanooga is the stake for which this army is con- ending, and the fact that the Federals may remain un disturbed there during the winter, adds and substracts nothing from our prospects of success. In truth, there are many officers wno believe we are cetter tti where ".. ? i i i i ii ir we are, witn a rauroau ac our oacis, man n we were brtv miles on the other side of the Tennessee river, and dependent for supplies on the rugged roads and faulty f - i iii i i l . . wagons, wmcn wouia dc our Dane uuriog me wmier. Fifthlu, Tne cnort tnat nas been maae to lasten uDon General Loogstreet the responsibility of the" dis aster," as it is termed (which is supposed to mean the occupation of tne valley by the enemy), results lrom a tnipsappreheasion of facts. The attack made by Gen. Jenkins with Hood's division, uuder the direction of General Loogstreet, was not, as has been- stated, de signed to be upon the Federal reinforcemtnts, but upon the rear-guard and wagon train oi a ccrps which had already reached the vicinity cf Bcuwn's terry. It had a specific purpose, and did not loo-f to an interruption of the enemy's march, but simply to the capture of a d studied portion of hia army, iiaw faithlully the cr ders of General Longstreet were carried out how one little brigade, by the clouded light of a midnight moon, encountered a whole division which had moved up to the designated point alter dark, and whose proximity was not known how the latter was driven back, the wagons oap?ured, the camps overrun and prisoners :en in the rear now tne reuerais at wown a lerry nnw marched raoidlv down and threutened to int3n: 'Ct the road by which the brigade was to return across Lookout Cretk, and did reaca a pomi witnm tfcree hundred yards of it ; lorcing us to abandon the results. of victory, already witnin cur grasp are matters which need not be repeated. But it the reader will only recall the circumstances ot tne event, it win be evident that no more was intended to be done than was accomplished, and that so lar from the occurrence of a " disaster," the situation of this army has not been in any degree affected. Finally. We nave not " lost tne advantages oi our position.' Loosout Mountain is still in our possession, and, to all intents and purposes, the lines of the army have not been changed. With this great aad almost impassable wall on our left, effectually barring the ad- . r j I i f - . a ? vance ot tne enemy irem mai direction, ana aiiesiouary Ridge, with its steep sides, on our front, no General can ask a more desirable place of defence than that which is now held by tbi3 army. If the enemy have succeeded in provisioning them selves lor the wiuter, it is only what they would have done, uuder any other circumstances, somewhere else perhaps not so favorable to us and this fact will, in no wise, interfere with the general battle which is even tually to decide the strength "of the two armies, aad probably, the issue of the war. It is a emotion of fight ing, and not of eating, with which we have to contend, and a winter's idleness in one place or another has lit tle to do with the solution of the problem while the two armies confront each other intact. I truat these observations may have the t-flect design ed namely, to restore public confidence, to cheer the hopes of anxbua thousands, and to controvert perni cious theories, whose tendency ig to foster the gloomiest apprehensions and discourage the patriotic efforts of the people. . rnKossK Tlie House or ltothuelilld. - Among all the Congresses held this summer, of prin ces, lawvers. musicians, schoolmasters, social science men, political economists, and a hundred others, one very notabio meeting has almo3t escaped public attcn tion. A few dijs ago our Paris correspondent told us that a Congress of the members of the illustrious house of Rothschild has been sitting at Paris. The purport of the meeting was nothing les than to re-arrange the dominions of the great banking dynasty. In one word, the great object of the great Rothschild Congress was to reduce the five branches of the house who now rule Europe to four, and, following the example of Garibaldi, to strike another sovereign of Naples from the list of reigning mjnarcha. Henceforth there ate to be but four king3 of the hou3e of Rothschild, with secure thrones at London, Paris, Vienna and FrSnkforfc. It is now exactly a hundred years sines a poor Jew, call ed. Mayer Anselm, made his appearance at the city of Hanover, barefooted, with a sack on hia shoulders and a bundle of rsgs on his back. Successful in trade, like most of his co-religionists, he returned to Frank fort at the end of a few years, and set up a small shop in the " Jew Lace," ove which huDg the sign-board of Pa red child, called m German roth-schiid. As a dealer in the old and rare coins, he made the acquaintance of the Serene Elector of Heese Cassel, who happening to be in want of a confidential agent for various open and secret purposes, appointed the shrewd-looking Mayer Armplm to th noat. ..Th Horno Vloff fM.jKoirr-ir.rTvi1 pelted soon after to fly his couDtry, Meyer Anselm took charge of bis cash, amounting to several millions of florins. With the instinct of his race, Aosclia did not forget to put the money out on good interest, so that, before Napoleon was gone to Elba, and the illustrious Elector had returned to Caesel, the capital had more than doubled. The ruler of Hesse Casel thought it almost a marvel to get his money safely returned from the Jew Lane of Frankfort, and at the Conres of Vienna was never tired of sieging the praise ot his He brew agent to all the Princes of Europe. The dwellers under the sign oi the Red Shield laughed ia their sleeves; keeping carefully to themselves the great fact that the electoral two millions florins had brought them four millions of their own. Never was honesty a better policy. " Mayer Anselm died in 1812, without having the su preme satisfaction of hearing his honesty extolled by kings and princes. He left five sons, who succeeded him in the banking and money leading business, and who, conscious of their social value, dropped the name of Anselm, and adopted the higher sounding one of Rothschild, taken from the sign-board of the paternal house. On bi3 death bed their father had taken a solemn oath from all of them to hold hi3 four millions well together, and they have faithfully kept the injunc tion. Bat the old city of Frankfort cleajly was too narrow a realm for the fruitful sowiDg of four millions ; and, in consequence, the five were determined after a while to extend their sphere of operations by establish ing branch banks at the chief cities of Europe The eldest son, Anselm, born 1773, remained at Frankfort ; the second, Solomon, born in 1774, settled at Vienna ; the third, Nathan, born in 1777, went to London ; the fourth, Charles, the infant terrible of the family, estab lished himself in the soft climate ot Naples ; and the fifth and youngest, James, born 1792, took up his resi dence at Paris. Strictly united, the wealth and power of the five Rothschilds was vested in tho eldest born ; neverthe less, the shrewdest of the sons of Mayer Anselm, and the heir of his genius, Nathan, the third son, soon took the reins of government into bis own hands. By hia faith in Wellington and the flesh and muscle of British soldiers, he nearly doubled the fortune of the family, gaining more than a million sterling by the- sole battle of Waterloo, the news of which he carried to England two days earlier than the mail. The weight of the solid millions gradually transferred the ascendancy in the family from Germany to England, miking London the metropolis of the rrignirg dynasty of Rothschild. Like the royal iamilies of Europe, the members of the house of Rothschild only intermarry with each other. James Rothschild married the daughter of his brother Solomon ; his son Edmoo,heir apparent of the French line, was united to his fir3t ceusin, the daughter of Lio nel, and grand-daughter of Nathan Rothschild ; and Lionel again member of Parliament for London gave his hand in 1830 to his first ccusin Charlotte, the daughter of Charles Rothschild, of Naples. It is unnecessary to state that, though these matri monial alliances have kept the millions wonderfully to gether, they have aot improved the race of old Mayer Anselm, ot the Red Shield. Already signs of physical weakness are becoming visible in the great family. So at least hint the French papers in their meagre notices about the Rothschild Congress at Paris. From all that can be gathered out ol the wilderness of canards, thin faces and thick fiction, it appears that the sover eigns of the Stock Exchange met in conference for the double purpose of centralizing their money power and widening their matrimonial realm. In Other words.the five reigning kings, descendants, according to the law of promogeniture, of the five sons of Mayer Anselm, came to the decision to reduce the number to four, by cutting off the Neapolitan branch of Charles Roths child, while it was likewise decided that permission should be given to the youngest members of the family to marry, for the benefit of the race, beyond the range of first cousinship. What has led to the exclusion of the Neapolitan line of Rothschild seems to have beea the constant exercise of a highly blamable liberality, unheard of in the annals of the family. Charles, the prodigal son of Mayer Anselm, actually present ed, in the year 1846, ten thousand ducats to the orphan asylum of St. Carlo at .Naples, ana ine son ano heir of Charles, Gustavua has given repeated signs oi hia inclination to follow ia the footsteps of his father. Such conduct, utterly unbecoming of the policy of the house of Rothschild, cculd not be allowed to pass un noticed, and accordingly we quote the rumor of Paris journalism the dechehance of the Neapolitan line baa been pronounced, uowever, rron uruHiuvua uc Rothschild is not to retire into private life, like the famous Charles V, with only a prayer beck in bis hand and a cassock on his shoulders, but ia allowed to take with him a small fortune of 450,000,000 francs, or bout six millions sterling a mere crumb from the able of the deecendants of the poor Mayer Anselm, who wandered shoeless through the Electorate of the good King George III. It is certain that no romance of royalty is equal to the romance of the house of Roth Bchilcl. London Globe. . A SaowKR of Blood. A correspondent of the Chattanooga (Marietta) Re&cl, writing from Gen. Leo's army, November 10, says : Soon after our arrival at camp, the first snow storm of the season commenced, and it was accompanied with a phenomenal appearance, which is oftea epoken of, but seldom seen ; 1 allude to a shower of so called blood. This reddish substance fell over a spot about four or five acres in extent, spattering the tents with large plashes of a fluid resembling poke berry juice in color, and collecting in considerable quantities in the cups of dead leaves, kc. There was a singular appearance in the north at the same time, resembling the "silver rain" of the pyrotechnists, and which -lastad but a few min utes, t hese facts can be attest 3d by hundreds of per sons, officers and men. and I enclose vou some of the leave3 clotted with this peculiar red substance. Who are our Enemies ? Those who are continu ally indufcriDsr in the discouraging' remarks about our rulers. Those who are doing their best to break down the wheels of our G overnment by endeavoring to em barrass our finances. Those who try to create diesatis faction with our Generals. Those who always oppose every new plan adopted to improve oar condition. In short, the worst enemies our people have to contend with are the croakers and fault fiaders to be found in every section. The habitual, reckleas and .indiscrimin ate grumbling to be heard of everybody and everything is more injurious to U3 than the armies of the Federals . Grumblers should find no sympathizers ; and Bhould be met with strong rebukes whenever and wherever en countered. Chronicle 4 Sentinel. "The Market Price." "l am satisfied with whatever will be the market price," i3 a common remark, now-a-days, among produ cers. This is generally the respose to parties who wish to f ngage, for strictly private consumption, pork, sugar, syrup, corn, &c. The remark is very simple, and to one unacquainted with its literal meanicg, appears to be a jnst and fair preposition. But let ua tell y:.u what a great masy farmers mean by the "market price." It is this: The necessaries of life will be securely stored awaj hidden from the hungry views of man nnd to all applications from purchasers, will come the reponne: "I am sorry I can't accommodate you; but really, I have barely enough to last me, and cannot possibly Bpare any." In this manner the market is kept bare lor a long time, and the people are tempted to give most any price for produce. At length Boma hoarder of provi sions ee3ks hi hidden treasure, brings a load to town, and ask3 for it about twelve time3 its intrinsic value A suffering citizens, who has an abuzdance of money becomes the purchaser, and immediately "the market price" is established. The consequence is, the patriot ic farmer, who hai been withholdicg . his produce for months r"sorely troubled in mind aa to what should be the market price," is now disposed to tell ai d be satis fied. Poor fellow! He makes a great sacrifice; but then such is the established price, and he "must submit. So wags this unrighteous world. We have no idea the Yan kees will ever get this country, but think it pre'ty cer aia the Devil has already got his titles perfected- If he has not it has been through his own negligence.
