TERRIBLIP PHOTOGRAPHIC CoUNTERFEITs.-
The Paris correspondent of the Boston atlas
gives the flowing alarming account of re-
cent Photographic counterfeits in that city:
"1he sciace of photography has, for some
time past, cen the rage among the young
men of fashOn in Paris, and has been carried
to great pesction by some of them but by
none to Crater extent than by NJ. Aguado,
whose successful studies from nature are well
known amug the artists Of every country.
On Saturday morning, this gentleman sent
word to the Gperts Of the Bank of France that
he had at lngth succeeded so fully in the
imitation ofone of the thousand franc notes
that he defid them to detect it; and to show
his perfect onviction of the impossibility of
discovery, h warned them that the note
would be presented at the bank between the
hours of one and three. According to this
intimation, tie experts were assembled at the
counter, andeach note brought in was sub
mitted to thir examination before it was ac-
cepted. The hour passed by, and no false
note appeared the whole of those specified
lay in row spread out before the eA perts,
who already crowed over the idea that M.
Aguado hadnot dared to hazard the expert
ment, when Just as the clock struck three, in
he walked, milling and triumphant, with a
thousand fraic note in his hand.
"Well, have you detected my forgery"
asked he, with the greatest GOODNESS.
"No," replied the head expert, "for the
good reason you never sent it,"
why, thee it lies, right under your nose
the third to the left; and here is the original
that took it FROM
The dismay of the experts may be imagin-
ed, when even comparing the two, they found
it impossible to say which was the false. A
council was held to determine the course to
be adopted as according to report, great
number Of these Photographic notes were in
circulation, and Mr. Aguado declared himself
able to manufacture any number of notes in
a given time, and that none shall be detected
either by sight or touch.
The CONSERVATION created by the announce
ment is not to be described, and report tells
us that the bank has accepted the offer OF a
learned English doctor resident here, to fur
nish chemical preparation, of his own dis
covery, which shall Immediately decompose
the photograph by the touch Of a camel's hair
brush, dipped in the liquid and passed slight
ly over the printed lines. The adventure has
served to make us laugh, although rather
grizzly, when It is considered that already the
| greater portion of the notes in circulation
may not be able to stand the test of the learned
doctors brush.
