Another pangerou. Counterfeit.

Within the past few days our banker.
have detected new and very dangerous
counterfeit. 1t is a $50 bill on the State
Bank Of Missouri. We are unable to give
a general description of the bill, but we un.
1estand that it is an excellent imitation OF
the genuine, and would be likely to deceive
any oae not accustomed to the appearance
Of the genuine bill. Our bankers detected
the counterfeit from The roughness of the
engraving, which although superior for a
counterfeit, will not compare with the gen.
uine. One Of our banking establishments
received nearly $400 Of the bills from cor
respondent at Chicago, few days since,
and yesterday another banker received $4,000
from correspondent at New York. The
notes have not yet got into general circuia-
tion. Look out for them.-Pries Current.
