To Detect COunterfejfS.

An observance of the following
rules will. enable almost any one to 0
detee t the great majority of the coun-
terieit bank bills put id circulation.
l. Examine well the appearance Of
the bill. The genuine have geper.
al dark, neat appearance.
2. Examine the yignctte or pic
ture in the middle of 1he top: see if
the 5 KY or background looks clear
and transparent, OF soft and even. and
not seratchy.
8. Examlne well the faces. SEQ #
the q Expression is disti4 4et and easv.
shovin the folds distid city.
4. See if the drapery or dress f;s
well, looks natural and easy, showing
the fblds distinctly.
5. Examine the medallion rulinG
and heads and circuld dr ornaments
around the figures, etc. See If they
are regular, smooth and uniform and
not seratehy- This work in the gen
mne looks Us if raised On tie paper.
and cannot be perfectly initiated.
g. Examine the prid deipal line of
lettd RS or name of the bank. See if
they are all upright, perfectly true
and even, or II slipping Of a uniform
Slope.
Z. Carefully examin4 Che Shade or
parallel ruling on the ElE ed Of the out
side letters, etc, see if it lis clear. and
looks as if colored with a brush
The ilRe and p'lrallel lines in the gen
uine are Of equal size, smooth and
even; colnter1eits loo < as if done
with file.
s. ObserIe the round hand writ
ing engraved on the bill, which should
be black, equal in size and smooth.
This is in genuine notes inyarial w
well done, and looks y4 ly perfect
In tounterleitsit is seldom so but f
ten looks stiff, rs if done With a pen.
3. Notice tile imprint or engrav-
er s name which IS always alike; let
ters small, upright and engraved very
perfectly. 90 hnterlcitersf seldom do

1t was remarked by Stephen Bur-
4oughs, before he died, that tive things
could not be perfectly counterfeited.

PikarrO'S Grave at Lima.

In th e crypt under the high altar
are deposited the remains Of the cele-
brated Pizarro, who was assassinated
in place near By. A small piece of
silver dropped into the hand Of the
sacristan, procured me admission into
| the crypt. Des eending ii few steps,
/ | entered small place, some twenty
feet long, quite light and white-wash-
ed, and which $ melt and looked so
much Ikea comfortable wiue-cellar,
that [ caught myself more than once
booking around Tor the bins and bot
ties. The first object ! saw was 4
large quafe tomb, ,surmounted By the
erect fgure of an abbot, and close by,
mar o belling IN the wall, | noticed
what appeared to be a collection Of
dusty rags, but u closer inspection
proved that this was all the remains
of the renowned conqQeror Of Peru.
He has still on lin the same clothes
and SHOES which he wore at the mo-
ment of his assassination. Ofcourse,
his bod y is nothing but skeleton,
covered with d1y flesh and skin, 50
that 10 features are discernable.-
The body is covered with what Was
once white lindn, swathed around
him, but the dU st of centuries has
collected on him, and turned it to a
| light brown cold i, and it almost pull
1verizes when toq ched The body is
placed pa a narr4 W piece Of plank, in
a sloplng posi- tion, and has been
placed in that position M Rrely to put
tit out Of the way. The olks in Lima
do not think anything of the re
mains of poor Pizarro; md | dare
say a little money judicio hsly invest
led, would procure for any curiosity
hunter the whole remains.

mastA Of the library threw q uy lilt0Y
I the vase, and the spider repeated her
former maneuvres, with this differ
Eence, that she soon ceased to show
any symptoms of alarm when the
hand Of her feeder approached her
After some time, instead Of wait
ing until he had withdrawn, she use
to start instantly on her prey, aA5l
eat it on the spot, without caring t9
retreat intb her den. Curious TO 4s-
certain how far this familiarity wo'iiu
extend. he held a fly BY the wing a1ffi
offered it to the spider. On the hf&t t
occasion she retreated terrified, ard
hid herself in her nest; bat th$ neKt

seized the fly from between h4r p n

After ten similar eKperimeni IS, she
became 50 tame that she fea ilessly

IIec master, curious to ascertain
whether this ppee Of barbarlty v rs
tie result Of particular aversion to
this ill-fated male, threw.a second IN
to the vase. Alas! he shared the
fate Of his prede cessor; and during 4
month this feminine can1Ibal lived

At the end of that time, she grew
