TRADING BY FORGED BILLS.--Who would suppose
that London firms of character and eminence deal, know-
ingly and systematically, in forged bills! Yet such is
actually the case. Great money dealers, whose names
alone can sometimes turn the current of the market,
have a quiet drawer in which they stow away these
bills, just as they would any other. The principle upon
which they proceed is a very simple one. They know
their customer ; he is a man in business, with a stock in
trade, a character to lose, and greatly in want of ready
money. The customer forges to his bills the name,
usually, of a near relation, or some one of moneyed fame
with whom he is connected. The dealers, fully aware of
the circumstance, take the bills. They know well that
their customers will pay this bill before any others—that
he will run all risk, refuse all payments, make all sacri-
fices, rather than leave these bills unpaid, with the terrible
consequences of their examination. The customer, in
fact, says to the dealer---" I put my liberty, my charac-
ter, and prospects, in your hand ; if I fail in my engage-
ments, you will have the power to transport me as a
felon. I shall not run that risk ; I have such and such
property—Ruch and such connexions—lend me so much
money." The dealers do not hesitate to comply,—.
Chambers's Journal.
