 Mir. Rolhschild is by birth Jew, and sprung from an humble origin. He is, if we mistake not, asnative of Amsterdam, N

 n his earlier days, pursued the humble voc

 ation which is pursued by the tribe of A

 ,raham. Some years ago, having aecum- ulated small fortune, he took advantage of the political affairs of Europe, and re- moving to Manchester, entered into famous linen speculationS, and as the tides turned in his favor, ,he amassed princely fortune. From Manchester he came to London, & became an extensive dealer in stocks, and met with almost unparalleled success. His reputed wealth, soon introduced him to the most powerful Princes of Europe, who in their emergencies called on him for loans, and after lapse of few years, ma nv of the states of the continent, as we'll as England, were regulated by his nod.- 1 Al present, though prescribed for his reli- zion he is by far the most important per- sonage of Europe, and.if he were as ambi- { tious 01 fame, and of diadems, as he is of the charms of wealth, he might Overturn the government of the old world, by en- ! tering the force of his wealth, ,and employ ing them in carrying on the schemes of the Military Chieftain.

 Though circumcised Jew, his society is courted fronllhe sovereign to the plebian and they who affect to despise him for his creed, are compelled to admit his power, and to seccumb to his greatness.

 He is generally seen at the London Ex- change during the hustle of the day & were he not pointed out to the spectator, as the famous banker, no man would on gazing at , his person, suppose it to be that of Mr.

 Ro'hschild. He is careless of his attire, which is not of the richest order, and par takes of nothing that has the least semb- lance to extravaganza or even to ordinary richness. A drab hat slovenly Tapped ov- CT his eyes, gives him ludicrous appear ance, whilst the legs of his trowsers which are generally pushed up and hung over the top of his boots, renders his whole ap- pearance rather offensive than otherwise. But it is when the contour of his face is examined, that the mightiness of the mind within is displayed, and seen to discover its energies to the attentive spectator. His eye which is dark, possesses great vivacity and is sure to glance among the multitude that addresses him, and to examine and de- eide at the instant on the numerous appli- cants who appeal to this modern Crasus for the use of his treasures. MT. Roths- child, notwithstanding he is of that class of the worlds population with which we are too apt to associate, sordidness and all the offensive qualities ofthe professed mis- CT, is as benevolent as he is rich and an- nually expends vast sums in meliorating the condition of the poor, whether they be Jews or Gentiles. In his manners he is mild and agreeable, and never assumes that aristocratical demeanoy, which is SO often observable in the minor lords of cre- ation, who grow purse proud and austere, and seem to think the world was made for their entire use and disposal. His exam- pie, is worthy of the imitation of Christi. ians, and by adopting his line of conduct, and practising upon his rules of action, they might render themselves far more useful to themselves and society. The bounties of heaven were never bestowed upon more meritorious individual, and by the manner which he makes nse of them tea ches us that it is not riches alone that can purchase happiness ; and beyond this he has proved that the eternal vengeance of the Almighty does not rest on the tribes of Israel.
