Office of Finance, November S, 1782.
NOTICE is hereby given, to ail whom it may
concern, that counterfeits have appeared of
the notes issued from this office, struck on copper
plate in the following form: " At fight pay to the
bearer Twenty Dollars, for nvhich this Jhall be
your Sufficient warrant." Which notes were signed
by me, and dire&ed to Mr. John Swanwick, Phi
ladelphia. There were some notes of the lame kind
for fifty and some for Eighty Dollars, which may
perhaps be also counterfeited, though none have yet
been discovered. The counterfeits are badly exe
cuted, and might with care be detected, but (from
an apprehension that such arts would be pradifed)
I long Since defined from issuing them, and cancel
led thole which were brought in for payment. —
There are now out only Sixteen thousand Six hundred
and seventy dollars; and as no great inconvenience
can aiife from putting a ilop to the circulation of
so trivial a sum, the publick are cautioned against
receiving any notes struck on copper-plate and lign
ed with my name. All perlons holding those which
are genuine, are desired to fend them to Mr. Swan
wick and receive the money.

LOWER TRENTON FERRY.
npHE road on each fide of the river Delaware to
.I the landing is now completed ; good boats are
provided ; the best attendance and quickest dispatch
will be given to all persons who may please to fa
vour it with their custom. In this part of the river
there are no obstructions, the water is deep and
smooth, and the Shores gravelly, so that the bouts
may at all times be brought so near the Shores as
to and their passengers without ever wetting the
foals of their Loes; these advantages, added to the
good attendance and dispatch that will be given in
putting passengers over, it is hoped will entitle the
fubferiber to the favour of the publick, efpcciaby
as the ferriage will be as low as at any of the other
ferries. Those coming from Trenton, and who may
please to make use of this ferry, are defiled, instead
of turning off to the right hand at the brick house,
which is situated at the entrance of the town, to
keep strait forward down the Croffwicks road about
four hundred yards, and then take the right hand
road which leads to Lamberton, where molt of the
veffcls that pass up and down the river load and un
load their cargoes. Here are two good houses of
entertainment, one kept by Capt. John Clunn, the
other by Mr. Abraham Waglum. The distance
from here to the house of the fubferiber, who lives
at and keeps the ferry, is about a quarter of a mile.
