NEW AND DANGEROUS CoUNTERTKIT - The
Cincinnati Commercial says that new and
dangerous counterfeit bill on the Merchants
Bank Of Salem, Mass, is in circulation. 1t is
an exceedingly well executed note, Of the de-
nomination of Threes, and so exact in its imi-
tation as to be nothing more nor less than a
fraudulent reproduction Of the genuine, So
minute and perfect Is this new counterfeit, that
it is feared the officers Of the Bank will, in
order to successfully combat 1t, be forced to a
recall Of the genuine issues. The following are
its features:

The "Oroakers.' .

Northern "Croakers" having been forced
from very shame to cease their dolorous bluber
ing about the crops in this ltitude, their south
ern brethren have taken up the cry, sndwe ar'
now treated, instead, 70 The croaklng Of the
sugar and rice growers and dealers along the
Mississippi. The annoyance is none the less
because II e0mes from a"sunny clime," and I
is the more annoying because 10 is 80 utterly
simple.
Ever since we can remember, the planters oI
the South have made an annual howl about the
certain failure Of the sugar and rice crops. -
Their predictions have, in part, proved true IN
only one or two instances, during the last thir.
ty years. One peouliarity we have noticed
about these crop predictions the seasons
when "croaking" was the greatest, the crops
were better than usual. We are not mistaken
about this: we have particularly noted this
fact This year, the planters have commenced
their complaints about The crops rather earlier
in the season than usual; they make great
deal more fuss than they did last year, or for
five years previous to this. We take 1t foi
granted that the sugar, rice and cotton crops
will be better this year than usual, simply from
the fact that the croakiDg is louder We may
be mistaken In this matter; IL so. it will be the
first time within our remembrance. The New
Orleans Delta, and other reliable papers in the
extreme south, do not claim that the crops there
vii be failure; on the contrary they say from
the best information in their reach, that the
crops sre promising. The smaller journals,
snkt teh 81 ~, "a ,f
only assert that "this will be a hard year upon
the crops Of the South"
We cannot tell what these croakers mean by
their yearly cries; I'VE cannot imagine what they
expect to gain by the yearly repetition of re.
ports contrary TO the facts, unless it is the hope
that it win have the effect of raising prices
An experience Of years should certainly teach
them that all such hopes are futile; for SO far
as we know, their croaking has not had the
least effect upon the prices of new crops. If
any advantage is gained, it is secured by nor
thern dealers, who may be induced to believe
the stories they hear from the South, and sup>
posing that the crop will be short, put up the
price Of sugar, rice, etc., upon their customers.
That 10 simply all. AS soon as the new crop
eppears In market the illusion is explo ded.-
The planters, who make all the outcry about
failure Of the crops, never receive particle of
advantage. If it is their purpose to occasion,
ally increase the profits of northern grocers and
spectators at the expense of their retail eusto.
merS, they may possibly succeed in a small
way; but we submit whether it be not very
small business, and disrepuLable withal.--
orOaking is in bad repute; the public voice
unites in condemning il as a nuisance; can't
it be abated2

u-1he Journal Of this morning says; "a
beautiful painted photograph Of lady Of this

Of our talented artists. We doubt whether any
other city in Ohio, or the West, will furnish
their equals.

Ocratlc brethren who have for some time claim,
ed that the Cleveland Plain Dealer was n OF a
Democratic paper, and that II was doing all the
damage 10 the party II was capable. We have

ness Of Bro, Gray; and we regret to say that an
article in his paper Of the 18th inst. wherein
he quotes the Resolutions Of the Harrisburg,
Pa, bolters convention, and speaks Of them
with approval, has compelled us TO put the
Dealer down in the list of those who, while
they fght under our banner, deal their blows
upon their comrades in arms.
We fear that we will have to do without the
aid Of Brother Gray in our war with the
Opposition; and though we will give him up
with many regrets, we know il would be better
that he should be on the outside Of our fortress;
for on tiat side we have no fear Of his opening
the gates for The enemy 10 come in.
u1The telegraph informs US that the defense
in the sickles case closed yesterday. The evi
dence, for several days past, has been given to
show the great provocation Mr.. Sickles received
for killing Mr. Key; and their success has been
as complete as the subject is siekening and
heartrending, The prosecution commenced
with their evidence yesterday afternoon. They
will attempt to blacken the reputation Of
Sickles, as they have intimated that they shall
pursue that course, What possible bearing that
can have upon the case, we are at loss to
divine. 1t is h.rdly probable that it will re.
store Mr.. Key 70 life, or render Mrs. sickles
virtuous or happy. 1t will not certainly be
evidence in the case, while it will afford vast
deal Of scandal. We predict that Judge Craw.
ford will rule ageinstit, although his dismissal
Of the petit jury would indicate that he intended
to "have time Of H." The result Of the case
will interest the public; the details are sought
after only by ihosewhose moral stomachs have
lost their healthy tbne. We will give the ire
suit" and in the meantime predict the libera
tion Of Sickles.
