FRAUDULENT GOLD AND SILVER CoISAGE.-Great
complaint is being made among brokers, bankers, as
savers and all others having u do with our metallic
currency, of the immense amount Of skilfuly depre-
ciated coin now in circulation. Until within a few
years bogus gold and silver money was made Of some
baser composition, differing from the original in quality
and weight, and which depended on a close imitation
Of the Government dies for its successful Issue. The
best Of these counerfeits was easily detected by the
chemical test or its short weight, while the GREASY"
surface ofthose more poorly executed at betrayed
the character to the expert touch OF late, however,
the moce in which counterfeers obtain their ilgoen
gains has totally changed. Bogus coinage, pow-a-
days, is more properly termed fraudulent than counter
felt since it merely the depreciation Of the genuine
issues Of the Mint. This is effected by splitting the
Government coin removing portion of the interior,
filling tie vacuum with composite metal Of exactly
equal weight, and soldering the pieces together 50
nicely that the fraud cannot in any way be detected.
In this manner the silver dollar, half and quarter
dollars the gold dollar, eagle, half and quarter eagles
and the threeloar piece are deprived Of nearly half
their valuehe eagle in fact, losing s. 50 Of its
gold. Platina was once more more expensive than
gold but of late is obtainable in such quantities that
it's mari et value bears to that of the latter metal the
proportion OF lOO TO DO By skilui combination OF
plana, which is heavier than gold with lead, silver,
and "copper" which lighter, the exact weight Of the
genuine metal is obtained. BY the same method an
equiyaen, to the specific gravity of silver is also
composed
1t only remains to say that these dangerous coins
are being uttered in Immense quantities, and so
difficult is it TO detect them that they find their way
into the vaults Of all banks, and undoubtedly into
the United States Treasury itself 1t is probable that
tie Government win cooperate with financial
institutions in taking stringent to remedy the
evil.

I.pyy-BooKs AND FILE-COyEFs.-Thomas Town
drow of this city has taken out patent for very
supe and muchneedcd invention. IL consists Of two
rssteboard covers on one end Of which metaphysics,
about an inch 10 width, are fastened by leather or
cloth in the ordinary book-bnding way, 30 as 10 be
flexible ut the point of uncure between the plates ana
the cover. To one Of these plates are rvited Three
perpendicular metal tubes and in the same reli'Ne
position on the other pate three perpendl ular uiesa
pins to fit the tubes. The covers, when thus put TO-
gether, form book without a back, kept firmly 10
place by an India-rubber band The leaves which the
covers are to inclose simply perforated with three
holes 10 answer TO the three tnbes and pins, and can
therefore be PIT off at pleasure. leaf or let
ter may be inserted anywhere by taking the book
apart at any desired point, without disturbing the
other Sheets side they left on the pins OF
one cover and the other upon the tubes. The in
vention Is peculiarly valuable for the catalogues OF
libraries or any ndexng where new sheets are con-
stantly accring to be inserted chronoogcay, alpha
betiealy or in any ether positive order. 1t may be
used also as a lererfle, and for this purpose Is the
best ever made. Necessity, in this case, literally
the mother Of invention the idea was born Of the
difficulty in keeping an index to THE DAILY TRTBUSE.
BY this happy and very simple Device Mr.. Towndrow
is enabled drop daily into their appropriate places
scores of entries which in ordinary bound index
book would be necessarily entered without the posi-
bity Of regular order. One who has attempted
to keeps catalogue of library to which additions
are constantly making TO keep any current index,
will understand the value of this invention.

Cruise Round the World-A writer
on board the u. Sc steam-frigate Pow
hatan, just returned from a cruise round
the world, says:
The Powhatan left Norfolk December
II, 1857, and since our departure we
have been at sea 3l3 days in the whole.
From Norfolk to Hong Kong, in
China, the distance run was l6,3G7
miles, and the time 95 days and If
hours.
From May "a, 1858, when we reached
our station to February 10, 1860, while
we were on the station proper, we were
at sea l08 days, and steamed 1874
miles.
Leaving Kanagaw1a, Japan, February
IL, we have steamed and sailed, since
leaving Kanagawa, $4,000 miles in 100
days, making total of about 57,27S
miles we have run, and l3I days we
have been actually at sea.
The passage from Valparaiso, sound
the Horn to ST. Catharines, occupied II
days and Is hours, and is said to be the
quickest run upon record.
In accomplishing this a1Aount of
locomotion, the engine has made fex5
millions of revolutions.
1t IS worthy of record that the ship
has never met with serious accident in
he's aaaGAipery, and that the cost of re-
palfsAs<fhs chief engineer tells me, is
less than S300t nor has she ever been
tletained'in port on account of her ma
