. Jay Cooke, financier of the Civil War . ts, altered notes, etc., also quotingfrom our exchanges, foreign and domestic, the items ofnews as to the prices of cotton and grain, the conditionof exchanges in different parts of the country, etc., experience was very serviceable to me, but wasrather more work than I should have undertaken, in ad-dition to the responsible position I held in the bankinghouse. I gave it up after one years experience.

About this time the New York Heraldcontained a brief reference daily to money matters andexchanges, and one or two newspapers in the South andWest copied my articles, adding information for theirown localities. With these exceptions, I think that thearticles of mine in the Chronicle were all that were pub-lished at that early date. >■< n c. ? > 2 = > 5 a
