A new way Of cheating was discovered on Friday.
It appears that in making their exchanges some Of
the Boston banks in the habit of passing bags of
gold to and from each other without counting the
contents, the bags being received by their weight
ing bag pu1porting to contain $4,000 was received
by the Exchange Bank from another bank in that
city The weight was right but the officers of the
Exchange Bank, who are in the habit of examining the
contents of the bags they receive found that this bag
contained only about $40 in gold, while the weight
was made up with cents, three coppers weighing
about the same double eagle. tBoston Post.

The Boston Chronicle, speaking of menace in one
of the London papers, that in the event of war tine
British would burn the city of New York, says that
- it is more than the New Workers do themselves
once in every five years; and when they should have
destroyed that village they would have the satsfac-
ton of knowing that they had burned up an hundred
million dollars worth of property belonging to their
own countrymen. Strike whatever blow you might
in such war, and the side would feel the effect
of it almost as much as the other.'', E&F5s; 5ss
