UTTERING FORGED NGTES.—A young man, giving the
name of Pierce, has been uttering forged Bank of Eng-
land notes in Manchester, and thcre are at this time in
the hands of Mr. Richard. Beswickr chief superintendent
of police in that town, one 101. and two 51. notes, all of
which are forgeries, paid. by this person. All that is
known of the man at present is, that on Thursday
last he went into Grosvenor-street, Chorlton-upon-
Medlock, and engaged respectable lodgings. On
Saturday evening, he gave the servant woman a 101.
Bank of England note, and asked her to Jet it changed.
She obtained change for it without difficulty, at the
shop of Mr. Bracewell, butcher, and the man having
ascertained from where she had got the change,
afterwards went to the same shop himset'f and got
a 51. Bank of England note cashed. It turneu' out that
both notes were forgeries, and the other 51. note men-
tioned above, was sent to the police-office by another
person who had been similarly victimised. Th e man
had ordered a good stock of provisions at his lodt Tings,
but never returned there after getting his notes cha aged
as described. The notes are tolerably well executed', on
watered paper, with the words, " Bank of England' in
the watermark similar to real Bank of England no tea,
but the paper has a rougher surface and much hars her
feel than the genuine. The man is described as ali ght-
haired, thin-faced person, with bushy whiskers stnd
effeminate voice, and is ,about sft. Bin. high, and 30
years of age. The notes bear date " London, April 12,
1852."
AMERICAN ENTERPRISE IN SOUTH AMERICA.—By' the
schooner Lamartine, which cleared at this port ye: rter-
day for Cumana, Venezuela, a party of adventurers go
out, furnished with a complement of machinery, for the
purpose of raising treasure from the wreck of the Sy;.an-
ish vessel, San Pedro, which was lost off Venezuela Dr Lore
than a century ago. It is supposed that the vessel had
about nine million dollars on board, which were sent by
the home government to pay off troops in her domin ions
in the New World. Some two years since a portion of
the present party discovered the wreck, and with. the
aid of a little apparatus for the purpose, succeede d in
realising about twenty-five thousand dollars, and eh ',axed
the wreck, so that they now anticipate operations will
be comparatively easy. A steam engine will be crirrrd
out, and also a diving machine, together with submarine
armour, and all other apparatus deemed necessary for
the most scientific fathoming of the " boundless c.leep."
Should this enterprising company secure the who& le of
their supposed vastly rich prize, they will not only sud-
denly become millionaires in wealth, but milli° naires
literally " of the first water."—Boston Transcript.
SINGULAR FULFILMENT OF A DREAM.—Ah out a
month ago, the deceased, Jonathan Wood, of Flax-
house, near Holmfirth, whose parents are dead.„ left

and saying he thought a walk would do him good.
From that time up to Tuesday, the 16th in stout,
the most diligent search was made for him, ar d an
advertisement issued respecting him, but withot it suc-
cess. On the above day, an acquaintance of his, i n con-
sequence of a dream he had that his missing fries id was
drowned in the Black Syke Reservoir, went in nearch •
his first visit was unsuccessful, but not feeling satisfied,
he repeated the visit, and discovered the body :floating
upon the surface of the water. The body was r emoved
to the Ford Inn, and an inquest took place on the fol-
lowing day, before G. Dyson, Esq. coroner, and a re-
spectable jury, when the following verdict was given—
" Found drowned."—Leeds Mercury,
