We have seen a world passion spend its fury, but we contemplate our Republic unshaken, and hold our civilization secure.

"The stock part of it is merely your guaranty of good faith: it is worth next to nothing now, and it will be many a long day before it goes to par, even if you are successful in saving its life. So your magnificent fee shrinks to seven hundred thousand dollars, less your expenses."
I knew this because I had the guaranty of the three men behind me; and, knowing this, I took a hundred thousand of the sum intrusted to me, in order to make a deal with a Wall Street firm which would net me twenty thousand within two weeks. "I knew perfectly well what I was doing but there was never any intention on my part of robbery or embezzlement.
