PREVENTION OF FORGERY AND COUNTERFEIT.
MG.-A paper, with a novel kind of watermark
has been produced in England, which will effec.
tually prevent the forgery and counterfeiting Of
private bonds, checks, and bills, bank notes, &c
It was invented by officer of the Bank of Eng
land, and it, or something like it, has been used
for the issues of that bank. The London Time,
states that the invention, after much labor and
pains, has been perfected, and that paper so
marked has been adopted by several public COM
panies in England and on the continent. It is
said likewise to be adapted to ornamental as well
as practical purposes. Portraits, landscapes, or
any other subjects, may be given, Us is stated,
with the same effect as in the German porcelain
the graduated thickness of the paper at
the various parts Of the design, creating, when it
is held to the light, the requisite effects Of light
and shade.

cation of James Collier, late Collector of San
Francisco. Mr.. J. A. Collier says it is all mere
matter of difference between the Government and
the exCollector in casting up his accounts; but to
make all sure, he also says:
"The sureties on two official bonds IN suit are
George Law, ESQ.,, of New York, and John A.
Collier. If their responsibility is questioned, il
will probably be time to discuss that point when
the Government shall recover a judgment against
them. In the meantime, it is scarcely worth
while for the public to get fdgety on the subject
Perhaps they will think it not unreasonable to

such duel, or who shall be present either as aid
second, or surgeon, is liable to imprisonment in
Jail for not more than year, or fine not ex-
cecdng $500, with loss of civil rights, as before
stated, for five years; and if any person shall post
another for not accepting challenge, or use re-
proachful or contcmptuous language, he is liable
to six months imprisonment or a fine not exceed
ing 800"

thusiastic applause, when the Princess Murat,
who until then unobserved had occupied box on
the right of the stage, threw beautiful bouquet
at the feet of the dancer, and anon, her burst of
admiration being not yet expended, she turned to
lady beside her, and took her bouquet also and
threw that as an additional homage to the agile
and graceful votary of Terpsichore.

We have been so much interestea in the earn
est account Of the assault upon and reduction of
= nest Of humble bees, given US bya young friend
Il boarding school, that we viols4s he sanctties
Of private correspondence and give il to the public
tas follows:
THE boys 60 out tor gather hersles and fivht
humble becs' nests for the honey. You ought to
see tho boys attack them. We are all armed
with bushes, and march along the grassy fields
close TO hedge or fence until we come across
nest. These nests are found by the BOYS treading
upon them in the grass or by watching the bees
hight. As soon as the nest is struck the bees be-
gin to hum and to come out; the boys strike them
with their bushes; but very soon the bees
| get angry and come out with rush. And then
such whirling of bushes, and shouting and run
ming. Some get sting on the leg, some on the
arms, and some on the face. AS soon as the bees
are thrashed you never saw such scrambng for
the honey; and then the singing is rather worse
but we don't mind it. After the nest is plunder-
ed we set off for another"
The little Fillibusteros! What could more gra-
phically describe the instinct Of their race? The
observations of the habits of the honey ma kers,
the gallantry of the attack, the storm and cap
ture of the hive, and then the scramble for the
delightful spoil How many of those little fair
haired desperadoes may be destined to illustrate
the energetic daring of their race on a brighter,
and alas boodier field! How many of them
may bear the banner of their country in despite
of every obstacle to the stronghold of some des-
perate enemy; and, in place of the ssting" that
now invokes the laugh of his comrades, fall
pierced with the ball that leave him corpse up
on the field of glory. Thus it will be. Yet the
race will be spread wherever the land or sea offer
field for their enterprise We read in the simple
narrative of the schoolboy the bulletin of inva-
sion and conquest, and can only pray that the
spirit which it manifests may ever be chastened
by generosity, directed by justice, and consecra-
ted to the honor of the country and the happiness
of the human race

IMPORTANT Law CASE AT TRENroN.-Betore
Chief Justice Green.-Archer Clifford, esq, and
Elizabeth Hoyt Herman Thorn and Mary
Rutherford, deceased.
The controversy in this case arises out of tho
estate of William Jauncey, deceased, late veal
thy resident Of the city Of New York. Il appears
that MIR. Jauncey died in l848, leaving last will
and testament, by which, after making various
devises and requests, in all to a very large
amount, he gave the residue of his estate to the
eldest son Of Colonel Herman Thorn, who was
called William Jauncey Thorn, Colonel Thorn
having married the niece of Mr.. Jauncey,) by
devise in his will in the following words: ~ give
and bequeath all the residue and rem hinder Of nv
property, both in England and America, of every
kind and description whatever, to the said Will
liam Jauncey Thorn when he arrives at the age
Of twenty-one years, to him, his heirs and assigns
forever" $500
William Jauncey Thorn did not live to attain
the age of twenty-one years, but died in England
suddenly, aged about nineteen years. Soon after
his death a controversy arose between his repre-
sentative and the next of kin Of William Jauncey,
deceased, as to the legal effect of the bequest to
William Jauncey Thorn, it being insisted by
the administrator to the latter that the bequest
to- him vested Immediately on the death of the
testator. On the other hand, it was insisted that
the bcqucst was contingent and could not vest in
the legatee until he attained the age of twenty
one, and consequently that the residue went to
the nearest relations of William Jauncey.
Whilst this controversy was pending, Colonel
Thorn compromised the claims Of FIVE Of the next
of kin by paying them $4,000 and $4,000 for
counsel fees, and about the same time he obtained
from Elizabeth Hoyt, who was the remaining next
of kin, an assignment of her interest in said resi-
due by payment to her Of $6 900, and in pursuance
Of this assignment Colonel Thorn procured the
share alleged to belong to Elizabeth Hoyt, to be
paid over to him or for his use ttB
The residue, it appears, amounted to about Sl,-
465 900, making the shares of the next of kim
there being six Of them-about $24O 900, which,
with interest since the death of Young Thorn, in
1891, increased them to about $60O,O0O.
The allegation of the bill is, that the assign
mont from Elizabeth Hoyt was fraudulently OBJ
tanned, and it is prayed that it may be set aside
and that the defendants may account for and pay
to the complainant the share of said Elizabeth
Hoyt. The heirs-at-law arc the Messrs. Hoyt of
New Jersey. The chancellor having been con-
cerned from the complainant, the same is now
being argued before the Chief Justice Counsel '
for complanants, Messrs. A. Whitehead and VIM.
l.. Dayton. For defendants, Governor Pcnning-
ton, Governor Vroom, ofNew Jersey, and r. H.
Morris, of New York.
