Very lame Entries of Winter Hofiery from va-

A lately dircovered forgery of the Slefwick-Hol-
Rein Bank Notes, which have an equal currency
in tins City with cafh, has made a great noife hero,
both on account of the rarenefs of the tranfaalon,
and of the perfons who are probably the authors.
—Some falfe notes had been obferved for fome
time in circulation, without its being poffible to
trace nut the diftributors. But fome people having
received fuch notes from a Prince of Salm, who
lived at Altona, carried them back to him, and he
exchanged them, alledging, that he had received
them horn fume perfons to whom he could return
them. 'ibis Prince of Salm had once a regiment
in France, but at the breaking out of the Revo-
lution he emigrated, and the greater part of 'his'
regiment followed him. Of there and other needy
perfons, he formed a corps in Weflphalia on cc-
eonnt of the Englifh, but which, however, was
loon after ditlolved. After this, he lived for fome
time in England, and when his creditors apply to
him he Rill talks of great demands upon that Coun-
try. Since his return he has refuted at Altona :
although he lives in a Pimple Ryle, his income is
not fufficient to fatisfy hi, expenditure, much lets
his paffion for gaming, For this rcafon he feems
to have had recoarfe to bold financial operations;
but they were loon difcovered. Nearly three
months ago, he went to the Banker WAllauto at
Altona, :4nd obtained from, him aoool. Bank
Notes far money, raying, that he intended to go
to Holtlein, and therefore preferred notes to cifh.
Two months after he went again to WARBURG, I
aid told hitt. that he had now manild from his
j )uniey, anti had brought with him fo many Bank
notes, that he fhould not only beg him. to take
back the former loon]; Bank notes he had receiv-
ed iu exclia»ge from him, but 4000 L Bank notes
more. Weenie° was s little furprized. and the
'Lore In, as the cirtulation of forged notes had be.
\ come the initjed of public converfation. He how-
ever told him, that he might leave them, and come
at four o'clock in
,the afternoon to receive the
rnaney, for he had not in much in the counting-
houfe. WARBURG having examined the notes,
found them to be fcrgeti.—He fent them to the
Bank at Altona, with notice that he had received
tlac notes from the Prince of Siam, who was to
apply to him at four o'clock to receive the money,
and that`therefore they might take fuch Reps as
they fhould think proper. Guards were now fent
to Waaauan's houfe, and when the Prince came
to receive the money, an order of arreft was pre-
rented to him. He made force expoßnlations,
but he was obliged to follow the armed authority
to the chief watebliciore. There be remained till
the evening, when a coach was fent to carry him
to the house of the Prefident, where his examina-
tion diretly began. He attempted to escort him-
felf by raying, that he had received the notes from
England m payment, aid that if they were forged,
which-he.did not know, 'becaufe he was not a
Banker, they might be returned; and he claimed
his privilege as a Prince of the Holy Roman Em
pire, who, according to the GermanConilitution,
cannot be arrefted by another Member without an
order from the Imperial Chamber at Wetzlar ;
and as there was none Atelt at Altona, that he
ought to be difcharged. He however promifed
not to leave Altana. The Court of Police at Al-
. tone fent directly a nseirenger to Copenhagen to
make the fubject known there, and to receive fur-
ther infra Lions. There loon arrived, and were,

that nti regard ihould be paid to the German Con-
Ilitution, but that be should be fecured, and the
bufincfs inveiligated with all RriEtnefs. This order
was complied with, andthe inquiry opened, though
the refult is not yet known. But it is (aid, that
fume Foreigners, and particularly two Englifh.
Coen. all re'tding in Altona, are implicated in the
bufinefs.' On his fecund examination the Prince
took up a quite different ground of defence, and
then pretended that he had found the notes on the
Pall. mall at Alcune. To a number of inquiries
defigned to clear ep the matter, he gave very un-
rati.fadory and evafive anfwers. but perfilled in
maintaining, that be had found that in the place
dela ilied. A third examination took .place, in
wfiichs the Prince kept to his feeond Rory. and
dated; that he had no knowledge whatever of the
authors or the forgery. On this occafion he raid,
that he would not agree to be judged by toe Duke
of 1111..rsow. and infillcd, that in his capacity of
a Prince of the Empire, he could only be judged
by the Diet of Ratiibon. He now awaits the cle.
cition of this Allah, and in the mean time he em-
plov. himfelf almotl wholly in playing at piquet
with the officer by whom he is guarded. The total
amount of the forgery ellimated at fit millions
of niaiti, and the forged times were circulated
both at itamburgli and Holflein. It is confidently
aff:rted that the bank a Altona. fupported by
that of Copenhagen. is determined to difcount
