Discovery of Another Conspiracy.
--The New York Herald has the following story:
‘
Under the auspices of bankers in Lombard street, a combination of bankers and capitalists has been formed in New York for the express purpose of aiding and abetting the
Southern insurrection, by withholding from the Administration the means of carrying on the war. We distinctly charge that moneyed gentlemen whose names are in our possession, which we shall disclose whenever the interests of the public demand it, have arrived at an understanding with each other to subscribe to no more loans, and endeavor to injure the national credit, for their own selfish purposes, to the extent of their power.
They are principally in the cotton and foreign exchange interest, and are of English, French and German, as well as of American origin.
They affect horror at the enormous expenditure which will be involved in the suppression of rebellion, and declare that the banks of this city, over most of which they may exercise paramount control, shall not yield another dollar, if further loans are put into the market.
They are principally sustained and urged on, in the course they have resolved on, by London and Manchester houses, who desire that the independence of the
Confederate States should be acknowledged as speedily as possible, in order that the
English market may be supplied with cotton, without the risk that would attend the violation of the blockade, and a consequent war with this country.
We believe that the alliance thus formed is so powerful that
Mr. Chase would find it impossible to combat with it, and that he will find he is leaning upon a broken reed, if he places any future dependence upon Wall street.
