1835-On January 30th, an assassin tries to shoot President Jackson, but miraculously both of the assassin’s pistols misfire. President Jackson later claims that he knew the Rothschilds’ were responsible for that attempted assassination. He is not the only one. Indeed, even the assassin, Richard Lawrence, who was found not guilty by reason of insanity, later brags that powerful people in Europe had hired him and promised to protect him if he were caught. The Rothschilds’ acquire the rights to the Almadén quicksilver mines in Spain. At the time this is the biggest concession in the world and as quicksilver is a vital component in the refining of gold or silver this gives the Rothschilds’ a virtual world monopoly. As a result of this acquisition, N. M. Rothschild & Sons would subsequently begin refining gold and silver for the Royal Mint, the Bank of England, and many other international customers.
