Vomiting a Counterfeiter.

A few days since, a man was arres'
ted in New York for attempting to
pass counterfeit money at a publlc
saloon. While on the way to the
nolicc station the prisoner was obser-
we'd to put something in his mouth
and swallow it. He was accused
of swallowing the counterfeit bills,
but denied it. A large dose OF tar
tar emetic was procured and the pris-
aner was directed to swallow it but
the fellow respectfully declined.
Some talk was had about pouring
the dose down bis throat, when ne
concluded, though with reluctance,
to take it himself, and accordingly
.ouaffed the Captains health, The
dose had the desired effect, as IN a
few moments the prisoner eJocted
two So bills of the Perth Amboy,
changed to the Commercial bank
of Troy. and Two counterfeit 81 bills
on the Farmers and Mechanics Bank
of Poughkeepsie. The fellow gave
his name as Karl Seheimer.

LOTTERIES.

The rage for swindling lotteries
increases, and the country is flooded
with their publications, circulars. adj
refreshments, and newspaper endorse
ments, procured by brides, in nine
cases out Of ten. 1T is the duty o!
the press to cry out against these
vile ssindling shops-to expose
their frauds--and warn honest, un-
suspecting persons against dealing
in their tickets. Not one in ten
Of these lottery schemes intend
thee clean thing. 1t is strange
that men of sense will any longer
pratronize them. Even when man
draws u prize, he is induced by YER
bal assurances on the part Of their
villainous managers to spend what
he has drawn in efforts to win a
larger pile.
The chances are MI in favor of the
dealer, and they SO intrigue as to
make themselves draw the great pri-
yes. They permit individuals to
draw an occasional prize, only 10
stimulate others to 60 into their
trap, for trap it is, and nothing
less. And even if the entire prize
we're conducted according to the Ia VS.
and rules regulating it, the dealer
is the only one to prof. by it, and
they are growing rich by the bust
ness. But there is not a lottery
scheme advertised that is conducted
upon fair and honest principles.
Oue-half Of them are bogus concerns
.one fourth are downright thisy-
ing concerns--and the other fourth
are sWindling machines. Swan &
Co.'s great Southern Lottery, is
charged with being bogus concern,
and its proprietors have been indicted
by the grand Jury, and are now held
to bail in $4,000 each. Let them
have justice is our voice, if it hang
them. Their receipts are said to be
$4,000 per week, and they are
able to fee lawyers, pay costs and
fines, and still drive on brisk basil
ness.
