JAMES SEWELL AND NEPHEW. TT has been stated that the original cashier of the Branch Bank of England, 1826, was a Mr. James Sewell, also that in 1834 Mr. Sewell became manager of the Commercial Bank of England, which concern, in 1841, broke down. Mr. Sewell showed himself equal to the occasion, and, with admirable calmness and enterprise, commenced on his own account, starting "The Discount Bank" in the premises at the corner of Norfolk Street, originally occupied by the District, and in which the business has been continued ever since. A visit to this old place is really very interesting. It has scarcely been touched, except as to office fixtures and fittings, since the days of Mr. Edensor; the old double flight ot steps up to the door--the fashion of a century ago--has never been altered. Mr. Sewell was a very able man. If, in his old age, the most eccentric of Manchester bankers, throughout life he was one of the shrewdest. Had the board of the Commercial allowed itself to be guided by him, that unfortunate bank would probably never have gone to the wall. Mr. Sewell's change to it from the Branch, though calamitous at first, since he invested all his little property in the shares, was eventually the making of his fortune. Here we have an instance, just the reverse of one or two that have been named, of a man better qualified for the position of master than of servant. The experience, however, which he had gained in the Commercial made him hate all joint-stocks most cordially, and for evermore. When he started, he received the warm and very useful support of Mr. W. H. Thorpe (of Livesey and Thorpe), and of the late Mr. W. W. Scrimgeour, of the Union Bank of London. Among his other stalwart friends were old Mr. Marsland, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a full and authoritative account of the history of private banking, beginning with its development in conjunction with the world markets served by and centred on a few European cities, notably Amsterdam and London. These banks were usually partnerships, a form of organization which persisted as the role of private banking changed in response to the political and economic transformations of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It was in this period, and the succeeding Golden Age of private banking from 1815 to the 1870s, that many of the great names this book treats rose to fame: Baring, Rothschild, Mallet and Hottinger became synonymous with wealth and economic power, as German, French and the remarkably long-lasting Geneva banks flourished and expanded. The last parts of this study detail the way in which private banking adapted to the age of the corporate economy from the 1870s to the 1930s, the decline during and after the Great Depression and the post-war renaissance. It concludes with an appraisal of the causes and consequences of the modern expansion of private banking: no longer the exclusive preserve of partnerships, the management of investment portfolios of wealthy individuals and institutions is now a major concern of international joint-stock banks.

Download or read book Hewett Cottrell Watson written by Frank N. Egerton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Hewett Cottrell Watson was a pioneer in a new science not yet defined in Victorian times - ecology - and was practically the first naturalist to conduct research on plant evolution, beginning in 1834. His achievement in British science is commemorated by the fact that the Botanical Society of the British Isles named its journal after him - Watsonia - but of greater significance to the history of science is his contribution to the development of Darwin’s theory of evolution. The correspondence between Watson and Darwin, analysed for the first time in this book, reveals the extent to which Darwin profited from Watson’s data. Darwin’s subsequent fame, however, is one of the reasons why Watson became almost forgotten. At the same time, Watson can be called a classic Victorian eccentric, and his other ambition, in addition to promoting and organizing British botany, was to carry forward the cause of phrenology. Indeed, he was a more daring theoretician in phrenology than ever he was in botany, but in the end he abandoned it, not being able to raise phrenology to the level of an accepted science. This biography traces both the influences and characteristics that shaped Watson’s outlook and personality, and indeed his science, and the institutional contexts within which he worked. At the same time, it makes evident the extent of his real contributions to the science of plant ecology and evolution.
