CoUNTERFEI11NG--We learn that
young Brown and Rathborn, recently
committed in Lorain County for passing
counterfeit money, have been removed
to the Jail IN this city for sale keeping.
Letters found on them, disclose senae of
the plans and operations of league of
villains which have for sometime lnfes-
ted the West. The band extends from
the Lakes 10 Florida, and the letters
speak of the river steamboats, belonging
to the company. and a grand meeting of
the clan to be held in ST. Louis next
Spring.
One principle bank of the Company,
it appears, islocated at or in the vicini-
tyof MarsaiIles, Indiana the residence
Of certain Mr.. Latta, OF Counterfeit
ing notorietv on the Reserve. The bills
obtained Of Brown & Ralhborne, were
$lO's on the State Bank of Indiana, and
$5O's Merchants Bank, N. Y. and los
Exchange Bank, Pittsburg. Amount,
$4,000, fresh from the Western Bank
Brown is scarcely IS, and a son Of James
Brown. of Akron.
We copy description Of The Indiana
State Bank $l0's from the MichiganCity
Gazette. The bills are described as of
loo light shade, and they had not prob
ably, been submitted TO the coloring pro-
cess directed in one Of the lette found
on the prisoners, from the western bank
crs 10 confederate in Lorain county,
promising $1,000 of the Indiana coun-
iierfeits, and ordering the bills dipped in
coffee before being put in curculalion.-
Clepeland Gdz.
We understand the letters give num-
Der of The names Of the prominent mem
bers ofthe clan, aud il is to be hoped the
recent arrest and disclosures may lead
10 the breaking up Of their deep laid
plans to defraud community.
LOOK OUT. We have now before Us
a counterfeit. ten dollar bill purporting to
be on the branch ofthe State Bank Of IN
diana at Terrehaute. The plate IS a full
half inch shorter than the genuine; and
the engraving is miserable. live mis-

them but four times, whilst this has it on

A Mr.Cook, of FALSELY, Scotland, has
discovered mode of using gas with a
mixture of five or six times its bulk of
atmospheric air, and burning it through
wire gauze, so as to do the cooking for
a family and warm the room. We
thought economy had been carried to
its highest possible pitch, but this goes a
step beyond any thing'we had conceived.

We have seldom seen an article more worthy
to be ridculed than review of'sWhig Principles
in the last number Of the Jeffersonian. We have
not room inclination to quote largely from its
absurdities; but must be allowed to show some
OF them in a way think best to treat such bare
faced specimens of the ridiculous. By the by, we
will make remark here before hand, that is,
we hope Mr.. Elliott is not the author of the arti
Gle alluded to.
The principle under review is this:
ITO STAND THE CONSTITUTION, with firm
ness and determination, which time cannot dmin-
sb, adversely shake, the possession Of power
corrupt"
The editor of the Jeffersonian then goes on to
say
"The Constitution makes it the duty of the
President to see that the laws passed by Congress
are duly executed. If the President therefore
shall sanction laws passed by Congress. of an un-
questionably constitutional character, and shall
attend to his duty afterwards in seeing that the
proper officers carry into effect those laws, do the
ssWhgs'' support the Constitution of their country,
bv uttering against the Chief Ma gstrate the most
vndictive abuse, and by asserting, they all do,
that Mr.. Van Buren, has increased the expendi-
lures of the government more than THREE fold !
Do they not knoU that money ever be
drawn from the Treasury unless by virtue of laws
enacted by majority of Congress?''
Our reader will no doubt exclaim with Us,
80 wise and uprgh, judge.
How much older thou than thy looks.''
The writer of the above. appears to have en-
trely forgotten, that the ''msjority of Congress
is composed of the political par.izans Of the Elk.
