The Cincinnati Gazette says:


Another exceedingly dangerous counterfeit on the
State Bank of Ohio has been discovered, which
has undoubtedly had an extensive circulation
Last week twenty dollar bill on the Ripley
branch, suspected by teller of one of the
banks in Third street, but after n close compari-
son, and strict scrutiny by the most reliable
judges, there difference of opinion as to its
character The majority, however, decided that
it was genuine. In order to test the matter fully,
Messrs Johnston Il Bro. forwarded the bill to the
cashier of the Ripley branch, and to-day answer
was received, pronOuncing it a counterfeit, no
notes of the date and number of the counterfeit
having been issued by the bank.
Engravers of the opinion that the impress
sion must have been taken, in part at least, from
genuine engravingS, perfect is the imitation
There is no mark by which the counterfeit be
distinguished from the genuine, and the former
have undoubtedly been changed in the filing up so
as to represent the several branches, the only safe
plan is to refuse all notes on the denomination of
$50 on the State Bank of Ohio. The counterfeit is
not new one, and some of our bankers are of the
opinion that the spurious notes have been received
and paid out by the bankers themselves, for some
time, and that large portion of the S2Os in
circulation are counterfeit.
From THE PLAINs-A correspondent of the st.
Louis Republican, writing from Fort Leavenworth,
Oct. 4, says:
yesterday, the Engineer Company which went
out with Col. Andrews command early last Spring,
arrived from Fort Brdger 1t is under command
OF Lieuts. Duane and Alexander of the Engineer
corps. The command is in excellent health. 1t
will be recollected that Col. Andrews command
marched to Utah by the way of Bridger's Pass, in
order to ascertain if practicable road could be
found through that part of the Rocky Mountains.
The report of every officer goes to show that al
though it is some so to 100 miles shorter through
Bridgers Pass, still there are obstacles which will
prevent the use of that route by large commands,
and by large trains. Grass is very scarce and the
water is very bad, being so strongly impregnated
with different salts as to render it dangerous for
animals to drink it, particularly during dry sea-
son. 1t appears to be now well established that the
road through the South Pass must continue to be
the great thoroughiare to Utah and the Pacific.

RUBBING THE UNITED STATES MAIL
Col. James r. Bellville, a clerk in the Chicaco
post Office, was arrested at Chicago few days a9o
upon the charge of stealing from the mail ill.,
duties were to. open the mail for distribution
"Upon his coming into Office" says the Chicago
Times, "sOme parties who had formerly known him
at Cincinnati, laid a wager with each other; ono
party that he would be caught stealing within
thirty days. the other, that he would not be caught
within sixty days--the party who proved to be the
iarthest from the fact to be the loser.
"For some weeks past" continues the Times,
'the officers Of the post Office have had suspicion
of his honesty, and parties were set to watch him.
These parties, are told, detected him in the act
of taking letters from the mail; but he managed to
dispose of them before his arrest could be made.
Yesterday morning (thc 9th inst he was again
detected in like operation by c. B. Smith who
proceeded thereupon to private police Office and
got a man TO come over and make the arrest. Upon
searching him. three packages of registered letters
and about S400 in bank notes were found. Col.
Bclleve was brought before United States Com
missioner Magill yesterday afternoon, where the
material facts above stated were proven. He offered
no defence and committed to await trial in de-
fault of 81, 900 bail.
''The accused is an intelligent looking man. about
40 years of age, with hair somewhat gray"

BE- An accomplished banker in Peoria,
Illinois, who enjoyed the confidence of the
community, recently abscOnded with S25,-
500 of the banks funds.
He left, some three weeks ago, giving his
family to understand that he was going
away on business, as he was accustomed to
do. But it would seem that he went to
New Orleans, where he was heard OF, fol-
lowing the vice of gambling, which has
proved his ruin. Thence he went to New
York; and thence back to Charleston
whence, it is supposed, he took steamer to
some West India port.
