ALTERED NorEs.-We learn from the
Sun that Bank bills altered from ones of
the Frederick county (Md.) Bank to
fives and tens are in circulation. The
alteration is executed with so much
skill that the best judges have taken
them. The plate. however, is al,ogeth-
er different from that Of the genuine FIVE.
The alterasi are made by pas,ing
over the die at the top Of genuine bill q
very Thin and transparent piece Of paper,
executed with the greatest nicely, in the
same form, with the figure on it. By
rubbing this past Of the bill between the
finger, the edge of the piece pasted on
will be percep,ible, and the part, from
having been glued or pasted, will appear
sitter. The other alterations are made
IN the same manner by substituting other
figures and letters suiting. II is . dan.
gercus note and one that the public
should be particularly cautioned against.
