The

Currency Commission now sitting

at Paris is a gratifying evidence of the tendency of modern civilization to facilitate international commerce. In times bygone nations have been upon nothing ore jealous than tho distinctness ot their coinage now we witness the spectacle of a congress of representatives of the governments of nearly all emitted nations to agree upon ascheiner unifying the

coids

of tho world. The object

aimed at by the commission can scarcely fail to strike

odo

favorably for the incon­

veniences connected with the existing diversity of coins are universally admitted and felt. Were the coins of the several nations so far alike, that while differing in name, form and insignia, they yet held a fixed and easily understood relative value, and were mutually current at the treasuries and within tho jurisdiction of the respective governments, it is very evident that we should have achieved a great result in facilitating exchanges between nation and nation. The present diversi ty in this particular, and also in weights and measures, form no small part of that complicated system of barriers limiting the free exchange of products which is essential to the attainment of the greatest good for the greatest number of the world's vast commonwealth. Let Jthese hindrances to intercourse be taken away and the removal of others would rapidly follow.

There are obvious reasons also for believing that the uniformity would effect an economy in the use of coin. In a very important sense the world's currency would constitute one common fund available for the purposes of all. A balance of Exchange between New York and London could be settled as easily as one between Chicngo and Now York. Ihe specie remitted to London would become immediately a part of the circulation of England, and would produce there an ea30 in money, which on the wav of reflex effect would help to induce ease in our own market, compensating fur the loss of a part of our currency and the same rule would apply as between all other nations. At present, every commercial country holds a large amount of bullion or foreign coin, rocoived in the settlement of foreign balances, which is of little service lor immediate monetary purposes, bul is virtually so much dead capital* It is reasonable to suppose further, that the facilitating of financial intercourse be tween the several nations would tend to preserve a monetary equilibrium between the foreign financial centres, the obvious effect of which, in periods of irregularity, would be to mitigate if not to avert financial panics. Those advantages, connected with a uniform curroncy, are so obvious, and yet so important, that it is not surprising that an effort should be made to secure the adoption of the system.

Were it a question, therefore, of adopting tho plan ab initio, there could be little difficulty in tho way of its general ac ceptance but it is presented as a subst.i tute for a wido diversity of syinptams interwoven with the laws, usages, trade, banking, securities and, worse than all, the prejudices of the several nations and it is consequently doubtful whotuer the difficulties may not in the mind of most ot governments be pronounced as outweigh ing the advantages. The form of the system itself Is not without weighty practical objections. The Commission is much divided as to whether the standard should bo a double one, of gold and silver, or a single one, of gold only and this question «o seriously affects the convenience of countries like France, Switzerland, Den mark, Russia, Spain, Prussia, Turkey, India, China, &c., which have a silver standard, that it may easiiy prove mo»t difficult of settlement. It is not to be expected that these countries will surrender their silver standard at the will of those which prefer gold. Nor does it seom possible to adjust tho difference by tho acceptance of the double standard for tho relative value of tho two metals is subject to fluctuation a fact which com pletely invalidates the idea ot their being mutual standards. There are difficulties also in the choice of the monetary unit. France desires that the franc bo accepted as the unit, all other coins, the sovereign, dollar, florin, &c., to be decimal multiples thoreof. The majority of the Commission appear to favor this choice and although the sel«ction touches sensitively upon national prejudices, thoro will probnblj bono insuperable difficulties in the settle ment of this branch of the question.

THE HOUSE OK ROTUSUMLD.

Frankfort correspondence Boston Journal. THE RED SHIELD.

Come with me to the eastern part of tho city—the old town—where you will discover scarcely a sign of modern architecture. The streets aro narrow the houses lean towards each other from opposite sidss of tho way, as il they were friends about to fall into each other's arms. It is the Jew's quarter. The doorways Kro crowded with women and children—all bearing tho unmistakeable features which, the "world over, characterize this historic people—rejected of God, despised of men, persecuted as no other nation has ever been, scattered everywhere, yet retaining their nationality, endowed with a vitality which has no parallel in the human race.

We turn down the Judengasse, the Jews' alley, from the chief thoroughfare of the modern town. In this street, one hundred and twentysfour years ago, lived a dealer in old clothes who had a red shield for a sign, which in German reads Both Schild. In was in 1743 that a child was born to this Israelite. The name given to the boy was Abselm Meyer, who also became a clothes and a pawn broker, succeeding to the business of his father. By degrees he extended his business, lending money at high rates of interest during the wars of the late century managing his affairs with such skill that Prince William the Landgrave made him his banker. YVhen Napoleon came across the Bhine, in 1806. this clothes dealer was directed to take care of the treasures of tho. Prince, amounting to twelve million dollars, which ho invwtod so judicious lhat it brought large increase to the owner, and especially to the manage

The banker* died in

1812,

leaving an

estate estimated at five miUioas of dol­

ppsp«fa^SjppiSiJlpi|^JWPIJ1

lars—not a very large sum these days but he left an injunction upon his five sons, which was made binding by an oath given by his sons around bis death bed, which was laid and still has a powerful influence upon the world. The «ons bound themselves by an oath to follow their father's business together, holding his property in partnership, extending the business, that the world might know of but one house of the red shield I (Rothschild.)

The sons were true to their oath. Nathan went to Manchester, England, as early as 1797,'but afterward moved to London. Anslem remained at Frankfort, James went to Paris, Solomon to Yiecna, and Charles to Naples, tbe five brothers thus occupying tbe great financial centers, Nathan in London, amassed money with great rapidity, and the same muy be said of the others, the wars of Napoleon being favorable to tho business of the house. Nathan went to the Continent to witness the operations of Wellington in his last campaign against Napoleon prepared to act with the utmost energy, let the result be as it might. He witnessed the battle of Waterloo, and, when assured of Napoleon's defeat, rode all night, with relays of horses, to Ostend went across the channel in a fishing smack—for it was before tbe days of steam—reached London in advance of all other messengers, and spread the rumor that Wellington und Blucher wore defeated. The 20th of June in lhat memorable year was a dismal day in London. The battle was fought on the 18th. Nathan Meyer, of the fouse of Red Shield, by hard riding, reached London at midnight on the 19th. On tbe morning of the 20th the new3 was over town that the cause of the allies was lost, that Napoleon bad swept all before him. England had been the leading spirit of the struggle against Napoleon.—

The treasury of Great Britain had suppli ed funds to nearly all of the allied Pow era. If their cause was lost what hope was there for the future 7 Bankers flew from door to door in eager baste to sell their stocks. Funds of every description want down. Anaelm Meyer was besieged by men who had funds for sale, but he was not in the market, he had no desire to buy. He too had stocks for sale. What would tbey give 7 But meanwhile he had scores of agents purchasing. Twenty four hours later Wellington's messenger urrived io London the truth was known. The nation gave vent 10 its joy up went i!ie funds, pouring, it is said, five million dollars into the coffers of this one branch of the bouse of the Jtted Shield.

Though Frankfort is comparatively a small city—though it has no Imperial court—it is still a great money central house of the Rothchilds and other bankers.

Tbe house of tho Red Shield is the greatest banking house in the world—the uiiglniust of all time. Its power is felt the world over—in the Tuiildries of Paris, in the Ministerial chamber of Berlin, in the Imperial Palace at St. Petersburg, in the "Vatican at Rome, in the Bank of England, in Wail street, State street, and by every New England fireside. The house of the Red Shield, by tbe exercise of its financial power, can make a difference in the yearly account of every man who reads these words of mine! Though Anselm Meyer has been half a century dead—though several of his sons have gone down to the grave—the house is the same. The grand-children havo tho spir it of the childron. The children of tho brothers have intermarried, and it is one family animated by a common purpose, that the world shall know only one red shield.

AMERICAN BONDS.

The house, at an early stage of the American war, took hold of the United States bonds Germany had confident in the people of tho Rhine believed in the star of American liberty. Fifty years peace had been long enough to bring wealth to this land, and with every steamer orders were sent across tbe Atlantic for investment in American securities. It is supposed that Germany holds at the present time, about throo hundred and tifty millions of United States bonds, and it is said that there have been no less than fifty million dollars profit to the bunkers of Frankfort on American securities since 1863 I

The great banking houses hero mako little show. The transactions of the Rothchilds amount to millions a day, and yet tho operations aro conducted as quiet ly as the busines of a small countinghouso. You can purchase any stock here. Passing along the street I noticed bonds of tbe State of California —of several American States —bonds in Dutch, Rus sion,'Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, ItaliaD French—bonds of all lands—of 3tates cities, towns and companies. The reports of the Frankfort Exchange aro looked at by European bankers with as much interest as that of London or Paris.

Erlanger, the baoker who negotiated the rebel cotton loan, and who fleeced English sympathizer of the South out of fifteen million dollars has a house here He has just now taken hold of the new Tunisian loan, but his management of the rebel loan has brought discredit upon his houso.

The power of the Red Shield was felt by Prussia last fummer. Tbe Prussian Government demanded an indemnity of reat amount, twenty-five million dollars, I believe, from the city of Frankfort. The head of the houso of tho Red Shield informed Count Bismarck that if the attempt was made to enforce the levy he would break every bank in Berlin that ho bad the power to do it, and that be should exercise that power. Prussia has won a victory at Konnigratz she could sweep away all armed opposition, but here, in the person of one man. she had mot an adversary who had the power to bumble her, and she declined the contest. A much lower sum was agreed upon, which was paid by the city.

THIS ROTHSCHILDS AND THE POPE. For fifteen centuries tho Jews have leen cursed by the Pope, and persecuted by tbe Roman Church. Thire is no more revolting chapter of horrors in history than that ot the treatment of the Jews at tho hands of the Pom ffs. In all lands where th* Ronuin religion dominant the children Israel havebeeu treated with barLnric rigor—allowed few privileges, denied ail rights, looked upon as a people accursed of God, and sot apart by divmo ordination to be trampled upon by the Church. In Rome, at the present day, the Jews are confined to the Ghetto they are not allowed to set up a shop in ar,v other part of the city without a permit thoy can engage only certain trades that are compelled to pay enormous taxes into the Papal treasury they are subject to a stringent code of laws established by the Fope for their especial government they are imprisoned and fined for the most trivial offenses. They cannot own any real estate in the eity cannot build, tear down or remodel any dwelling or change their place of business without Papal permission. They are in abject slavery, with no rights whatever, and "entitled to no privileges, and receive none, except upon the gracious condescension of the Pope. In former times they were unmercifully whipped and compeled to listen one.' a week to the

Christian

doctrine

of priests. But time is bringing changes Tho Pope is in want of money, and the house ot the red shield has money to lend on good security. Tho house is always ready to accommodate Governments. Italy wants money, so she sells her fine system of» railroads to tho Rothschilds. Tho Pope wants money, so be sends his Nuncio to the wheal thy house of the despised race, offers them security on the property of the Church, the Couipagna, and reoeives ten million dollars to maintain his army and Imperial State. That was in 13S5. A year passes, and the Pontifical expenditures are five million more than the income, and the deficit is made up by the Rothschilds, who take a second security at a higcer rate of luterest. Another year is patted aad there is a third annual

vacduni fo the Papal treasury of six'millions, which will quite likely be filled by the same bouse. The firm can do it with as mnch ease as your readers can pay their yearly subscription to your weekly Journal. When will the Pope redeem his loan at the rate he is going? Never?— Manifestly the day is not far distant when these representatives of a persecuted race will have all tbe available property of the Church in their possession. Surely time works wonders.

DAT GAUBLIXG IN NEW YORK.

George Alfred Townsend describes Describes Faro by Sunlight.

We copy tho following from the Troy Times, to which paper Ceo. Alfred Town* sond is contributing a series of articles

If you vrill stand before tbe Astor House at high noon, you will seo a picture of metropolitan eneroy a concurrence of wheels and multitudes, the hurry of ten thousand individual purposes beneath achievements in marble and iron that mako tbe sky seem only a structure of gauze, tbe impressment of steam and beast to industry, tho methodizing and electrifying of life, fifty years of Europe in a winkfull! You have no nobler pur» posetban to look, feel a serue of physica danger out of your own inertia. This is a giant's nightmare to vour best dream of ambition. Insensibly you exclaim: "Marvelous city and men!"

Now, turn short around, and walkdown Barclay street. One half minute from Broadway finds you in the second story of a handsome building where the furniture is of walnut and velvet, massive and armorial, reproduced in mirrors which might be priced like diamonds, by their carats. The gas is burning a» if it were midnight the heavj curtains are folded close the sunshine world of business might be twenty miles away, yet here is business of its kind, grave and anxious, which we may look upon.

A table, narrow and long, reaches across the place. Upon its green surface there are embroidered tho thirteen cards that make up a suite. At each end is a space, colored respectively red and black. Between these spaces, opposite the thirtoea embroidered cards, sits a man shut fling a pack of iilty-two cards, supported by a second man, who keops a tally and rakes in and out checks and money There are chairs facing, and on either side of tho dt-aler, and tbesa are filled by men who place mouoy or ivory blocks upon the fifteen space3 and the spots of red and black.

When the man in the middlo has shuffled and cut the pack of cards, he places them, with their faces up, in a silver box that exactly contaids them. "Now, gentlemen," cries the dealer, briskly, "make your bets!"

This, then, is a day gambling house and the game that lo to be begun is called Faro.

If you are not familiar with cards, you may like to know that a pack is composed of tifty-two, divided into four kiuda of suits of thirteen cards apiece. Two of these suits aro red two black. Tbe phil osophy of Faro, which is supposed to be the fairest gambling game is, that the host or banker bets against his guests promiscuously, upon either the denomination or color of the alternate cards, as they aro successively pushed up by a spring at the bottom of the silver box To uompenaato him for tho cost of the entertainment rather more than an equal chance is accorded him, and this is the variously estimated at from three to fifteen per cent.

Tou will seo at this midday game strango ptoplo nrsund tho board. Here, bending wim a laughing face over his chccquo is th chief salesman of a great mercantile house near by, who has come out to saun tir intj Delmonico's for a lunch, and, trade boing quiet, has stepped here to try a stake. Beside him is tho customer whoso note he took yesterday for twenty thu sand dollars ut six months. Speaking to both familiarly is a man who has worn the unif.rm oi Sing Sing, and can, if he daro, tell how for the one time hn suffered shamo there were a hundred that he escaped it. Here i3 a boy, cigar between his teeth, known by his father's name among these abandoned ones, while the old man in Wall street holds his gray hairs high in tho conscientious satisfaction that his home life is without a spot.

There are parties of gooso lines for lunch, and brandiei distilled from the noble9t Curgundy bananas and pineap pies to mako flavor, and cigars that are in evsry roll of the rich leaf a dream of sensual content folded away. And all the while tho money falls to stolid or eager countenances surveying, and those who are ruined dare not for their guilty vanity show despair, and those who win are lured to coma to-morrow. Here the extremities of social life meet the pickpocket and tho detective, ready to turn upon each other like hyenas as soon as they have passed their portal.

If you will pass from the rear of the Fifth Avenue Hotel at night, down Twenty-Fourth Street, you will seo all around you the palace of gamblers. They pay tho best rents if you scruple to let your house to them they will pay down the full year's ront in advance and bring you police assurance that you will suffer no blame. Here has long resided a cele« brity in his "profession He possessed by nature the gambler's two great qualifications, boldness and plausibility. So glib and defejontial is ho that you do not hoed the coarseness of his Knglish. In his stalwart role of tho frank and courageous host you barely mark his bruised countonance, and th'j low and curveless forehead Among the mirrors and Turkey carpets and plush chairs how can you recall the iant in chopped hair,Dlackenod knuckles ^nd desperate scowl shaking tbe heart of

His

adversary while he shook his hand biLh the cool assurance that he meant to wil him at the ropes. Strange that such kion possess almost the friendship of the mge and potent citizens here who are of sanerablu deicenti, while all tho day their vesociates are the '-cappers," "strippers," asopors," and "skinners" who walk on the "rargin of the penitentiary. ml do not believe that among the more spectabio classes gambling is so univerrel as in Europeon cities, but tho Amerisan pliys a more desperate game. Among cae lower orders, however, gambling is tho one great vice. There are four thounnd policy shops in New York, and six taousand dens and cellars and crazy teneS bents w_gre nakedness stakes the penny mhat it begged. Five thousand is the ti mated number of professional gamblers of the first carat in New York, but this tprebably includes the gamblers parasites who are anxious to pass for his rank.— These professionals do not acquire more income upon an average, than $2,000 a year, and must eke out a living by some o'.her dishonorable coarse $40,000 a night is the estimated sum lost in tbe city at games of chance, but the fashionable clubs, for the most part, permit gambling. Broadway, after midnight, is dimly illuminated by the lamps of gamblers in the second stories, and yet all tbe games that gre played, however, fair ostensibly, are nightly made dishonorable. Holns artcut iq the ceiling where a spy reads the "hand of the dupe and telegraphs the re* suit to his opponent. "Braces" or false boxes are used in faro. What gambler can be honest and consistent
