The cashier of the Augusta branch of the
bank of the State of Georgia gives notice of a
$50 counterfeit bill, which is So near fac sim
lie OF the genuine as to deceive persons unac-
customed to handling thatmoney. The sigma
lures are perfect-the numbering, date, and
word "Augusta" poorly done. The engraving
is rather coarse, and the paper thick and vel
lowlsh. The genuine $50 bills are on much
thinner and finer paper, and most of those now
IN circulation have red backs-those without
such backs having been mostly redeemed by
the bank and cancelled.
Ahe Ndtioitdi, d DTuSSels journal, publishes
long manifesto, addressed "to republicans"

zInl In it is an appeal to all parts of Europe
The three tribunes of the red republic declare
that the moment has arrived for European de-
mocracy to constitute itself into powerful uni
ty, to present itself in face of its enemies, and
to act. The fall Of Sebastopoli is, in their eyes,
the beginning of general war, the end of which
must be advantageous to various populations.
Organic yourselves, and dare!" is the con-
cluson Of the new manifesto. "Dare'' they
strike for their country? That's the question.

constitution Of the United States, by making
the president and members of the q. S. senate
eligible by direct vote of the people, and linn

the system, which we must continue to endure
even should it be attended with occasional in
conveniences.
| A New York paper expresses the apprehen-
sion that the pressure for gold will become SO
great in England that a suspension of specie
payments will follow, as in the war growing out
of the French revolution. Should this occur
its effect will not be to increase, lbut much to
diminish, the drain Of gold from this country.
lmportations are swelling up to the maximum
of the flush times of 1858, in consequence of
our having become again able to pay for them.
Every thing wore an appearance Of remarkable
prosperity. The revenue for the next year will
be, as some estimate, not less than eighty-fye
millions, including ten from the lands. Con-
gress must be Industrious, and ingenious also,
to find ways to expend all this money They
will be assisted by numerous outside advisers in
their arduous task
What AN ADM1ssIoN.-The London Times
in its structures on gen. Simpson is very severe;
it twits England ON her Inundated state, and
admits that if the country is to end the war
with the reputation Of forty years SINCE it
must be content with the chiyalry of captains
and lieutenants, or the stubborn courage of the
highland and Cannaught. TO a trinity of ma
tiyes Of the latter placeprivate soldiers, is the
honor assigned of being the first to enter the
Redan. One of them powerful grenadier, of
the name of Mahony, cheered as he rushed in,
and while the echo of his wild hurrah was still
on his lips, a ball from Russian rifeman pene-
trated his skull and he fell among the slain.
The other twain were wounded, and one of
them claims reward that was offered to the
first man who entered the position.
The Times, to show the ineficiency Of hasti- |

having fallen IN battle or succumbed to disease
tells Of an Englishman who returned from the
fight without having fred his musket, SAYING
THAT he would have discharged it, but he did
not know hoW-how to do so'' No wonder
then that the cowardice commented on should |
be SO apparent, when soldiers SO very raw as
not to know how to pull trigger, fought for
fame, and allowed France to carry
off the the laurels! Rule Britannia is now an
Empty and an idle boast Her power has
xaned, her glory departed! General Simpson,
Who could scarcely do Otherwise, has rendered,

A writer in the Scientific American after
examining all the various theories concerning
the structure Of the earth, endorses the conc]u,
sion that the world is one mass or plobe Of
mixed metals, of which the mere crust has be-
come rusted, OF Of earthly form, the outer rind
as it were, preventing any rapid combination
taking place with the metallic surface, FIVE or
SIX miles below the face of the dry land. Erup-
tons from volcanoes, he thinks, are produced
by the sea getting down to the metallic surface
through some fssure in the earth's crust, de-
composition of the water then takes place, fire,
flame and steam causing an eruption.
