An ingenious trick has been twice prac-
Used upon the famous and fashonab house
Iofthe Stewarts in New York. About

She took il back, and appeared 70 be Igno-
rant, when Oh reflection she handed over
another and genuine bill On the same
bank, and requested that il be taken 10

bounced to be genuine The lady then
put it 10 her purse, shaking her pretty
lhead onioousg at the clerk who bad dared
10 insinn8te that her money was not good.
She started to 60 out, the poor clerk ma
king ali sorts of apologies. But on re.
iectiop, she returned-tbe shawl pleased

pleased her go WELL She would have the
shawl pat up. The smiling clerk had i

clerk thought it was the same. They

dy on this occasion took two 800 shawls,
left Two one thousand counterfeit notes,
and received back 5000 in good cash in

upon this subject, the amount Of which is that
some Of their revelations and performances are
truly wonderful, but while it is beyond the
Power of the observer TO account for the won.
d.rs he witnesses, it is out of the question to
impute them to the agency of the spirits of de-
parted souls. Ii, like the editor of the Bee, all
sensible men were 10 take this view of it, the
