joNATHAN's TRIP TO YORK.

Ned Smith, who halls from Lyme, Conn. was
introduced into the Police Office on Monday morn
ing charged with attempting to pass counterfeit
money. On his examination before the mayis-
tra.e he gave the following account Of himself:
He had come to New York to see little of
the world, and after having tarried few days
without making any very remarkable discove.
ries, he concluded to return to LYME; for this
purpose he went on board the steam boat Gen
Jackson to engage his passage home; having a
ten dollar bill IN his pocket the clerk Of the boat
being unable to GIVE him change for his bill. Smith
applied to person on the wharf to get it changed,
when the stranger readily gave him two fives on
theCarlisle bank :being unacquainted with this mo.
ney, knowing thattri we're sometimes played
upon travellers, our hero proceeded to a store IN
the vicinity, to have his strange bills examined,
when they were pronounced genuine. Soon af-
forwards in the ncighborhood of the Fulton mar
ket, whilst peering about, Smith espyed pair of
spectacles which struck his fancy, ard thinking
ne would look well in Specs he forthwith struck
bargain with the itinerant vender, aud offered
one of the IS notes in payment, observing that
he was unacqusinted wit, the money. and did
not know whether it was gond or bad. The ven
der of spectacles proceeded to have the bill ex-
au,ined, and soon returned, saying it was pro-
nounced counterfeit. A. this moment police
officer who had observed the Transaction, arres.
ted Smith. and took bim to the office. The per.
son to whom the bill offered sent fer,
and in the interim the prisoner was searched.
aud there was found upon him, besides the 9
bills on the Carlisle Bank, ) dollar bill Oh the
Auburn Bank, which vas pronounced by the per-
sons present to be genuine.
A Young Sprig Of the law who was present was
engaged BY Smith 70 conduct his defence. rrceiv
ing the Auburn note as a fee % the appear
snce of the person whu had been sent for To- ties
ufy against the prisoner, he cOrroborated. sub
staniIally, the story as above related, and Smith
was discharged. Meantime tine lawyer be,ng du-
bious about his fee. had the blli examined again.
when it was pronounced forgery. Here va.
no more cash excepting few shiliings IN silver,
which the lawyer was fain to accept, returning
the note, AMI the prisoner departed
After leaving the office he proceeded to wash
away the offensive charge. BY copinus libnlionS of
St. Croix and apple brandy. Having sufficiently
obfuscated his intellect and vision he again sailed
forth in quest Of aPair OF spectacles, IN payment
for which he rendered the aforesaid Auburn
Bank note. The merchant took him IN custody,
and again brought him to the police Office, which
he entered with reluctance. Being too much in
toxicated to give any irteiigbe explanation of
his second adventure, he was committed 10 Bride.
