Our city has lately been flooded with counter
felt bills on various banks, and particularly ON the
Rockingham Bank, of Portsmouth, N. II. Great
efforts have been made to ascertain the source
from whence these counterfeits, issue; and.
amongst other business of the same sort, the police
have kept close watch on the movements OF one
Samuel Caswell. This forenoon, officers Clamp
and Starkweather pounced Oh Caswell, in Wash
ngton street, and found on his person quite num-
Der Of the bogus bills, which, however, were very
badly executed. In the police court, this after
noon. he was examined, and bound over for trial
in $500.
A number Of new banks are about going into
operation in this city. The largest will be the
Bank of Commerce, with capital of seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars The Bank of North Ame-
RIGA will commence with capital of half a mil

the Maine railroad depot, where farmers and deal

Nothing has given Seward so much power as the
belief that he was the dispenser of the government

extract here, from recent letter, written by
States, to gentleman in this city, couple OF para
graphs, on which no one is better able to comment
than yourself:-

abundant productions of our q Western States, to
provide her large population with more abundant
supply offood, particularly fhe meat kind so scarce
in France. shall continue TO exert my influence
to bring about that important change in the system
of the French tariff; trying to show them that the
more country secludes itself from the neighboring
nations the more II grows poor, whereas, on the
contrary, the more a nation tratfcs with foreign
countries, by fair exchange OF Its the
more il grows rich

A great parade is now being made by the admin
straton prints to instructions given by the State
department in regard to the recognition OF Hunga-
ry. She was to be recognised as nation, after
she had the power to sustain permanent govern
ment. In that case, Hungary required no more
recognition than the United States required il after
the peace with England. The whole matter of
recognition amounts to little or nothing. Let us
not forget that the United States one of the
first nations that recognised Dom Miguel, the
tyrant of Portugal. An early recognition OF a
power able to maintain herself, is merely an early
application for treaty of commerce and navigs-
ton, and is understood as such by every power in
Europe. Pozzo DI BoRGo.

good, easy sort of people that have believed this
ghost story; which need hardly add is notorious
lie, originating in the brain of drunken letter-wr
ter-oaier about Washington, with whom no decent
man would associate, and who never has been in
the house where Mr.. Calhoun resides, this session.
or while he has been in it, As for meeting him at
breakfast, or anywhere else, near the time stated
it is impossible, for Mr.. Calhoun has not taken
meal in the public room this year. There ID not
the slightest foundation for this dream story, and
must confess my establishment that any respectable
paper shold publish it.
/ am authorized to contradict this absurd story,
and to say that there is not particle of truth in

papers as have published this Wholesale fabrication
as truth, will see fit to publish this denial.
