Attempt to Pass Counterfeit Money.

DESPERATE RENCOUNTER On Friday night
last, about l | O'clock MIR. E. c. Cock, merchant
at Da ckstou's Cross Roads, six miles west o
Smyrna, was arol sed from his sleep by man
who wanted some goods from his store, and
who, though demonstrated with, insisted until
Mr.. G. WAS prevailed upon to go to the store,
the door of which he locked as soon as they
were inside. The stranger purchased shirting
10 the amount of 81 Al, when he handed over a
$40 note on the Blnk iofG .uysburg, Pa. which
MIR e. pronounced counterfeit to which his
nocturnal customer replied it was "l--n lie."
FROM this Plainness of speech, Mr.. c. grabbed
him by the hair, bounced oyer the counter and
"pummelled F" hun so severely as 10 render him
entirely poweiiess-he thinks, breaking one OF
his ribs. A rap was then heard at The door, and
Mr.. c , thinking it some one of his family, un-
locked a., when in stepped stranger. who in
qnired Of the person he had there, and " hat he
was doing 10 i'm. Mr.. G. replied that he had
undertook to pass a counterfeit note upon him
aud he was trying to make him redeem it
WELL" said he, "if that's all, I'll redeem
it for him. and immediately demanded their
release from the store (lhc door having been re-
locked on his entrance); to which Mr.. e. re-
piled that they should not leave The house until
the counterfeit money was redeemed !; the man
thea drew pistol, saying at the same time he
would go out, or go over his dead body,-but,
IN dra wing the pistol from his pocket, il became
entaugled in his coat, when Mr. e. sprang for
ward, aud, being very powerful man, wrested
il frum his grasp as he did also his bowie knife.
At this juncture, Cooks little daughter ap-
prared at the door, when he Immediately ueut

themselves conquered, the two counterfeit
notes MIR. c. having got one lbe. day prevoss,
by mea ms OF which he learned their characteF
were redeemed with $500 good money-all
they had after which they were allowed to de-
part in peace, and have not since been heard
from. Mr.. e. was in a very precarous situa-
tIon, and must, but for his great strength and
courage, have been dealt with foully. He has
