Dne Hundred rhouhand Doilars In spurioun

One Hundred Thouhand Doilars In Spurious
NJ Oney Discovered IN New fOrk-Selzure
Of CohhtSffeit Bills on the Treasury Of
1ayti.
On Saturday last, says the New York Tri-
bHne, Detectives Van Wagner and Rayiior, of
the Brooklyn police, seized large quantity
Of bills On the Treasury of the Republic of
Hayti, and also arrested q man for disposinQ
Of them. II appears that Haytien money has
been extensively counterfeited in the United
States, and number of persons have been
engaged in selling IL 10 masters df Vessels and
seanten trading between New York and Porte
au-Prince. So much of this kind of money
has been sent to that country, that the Gov
ernment have taken measures to put stop to
the importation if possible. With this object
in view, the Haytien Consul, or Commercial
Agent in New York, informed the police, and
efforts were made to detect the parties en-
gagged in the business but without success
until Saturday, when the above officers sue
ceeded in entrapping one OF the implicated
parties on board the brig Baltimore lying at
Catharine Ferry. The vessel had cleared for
Porte-au-Pfnce, and was to saSii yesterday.
An arrangement had some time previously
been made between the mate and the accused
Ia Frenchman, whose mamie is supposed to be
Hasler,) for the hepurchase Of large quantity
OF the spurious paper. Hasler brought the
| required amount on board in q common soap
box. and being taken into the cabin, the
whole amount, valued at $4,000 in Hayt,
was bought by the Mate for $500. The mate
gave him check for the amount on the
Merchants Bank of New York. The officers
being secreted on board, observed the trans
action, and followed the Frenchman to the
| ferry-boat, where they took him into custody.
| 1t may be proper to. observe that the mate
| acted in concert with the officers in the mat
ter. The bills are printed on thick, straw
colored, rough-edged paper, five inches wide
and seven and three-fourth inches long.
By holding the bill to the light, the "Em-
pire dHayti," with q crown in the center,
and an ornamental border surrounding the
whole, in water mark, is distinctly visible.
The printed portions Of the bill are badly ex-
| ecuted, but the water-marks are neat and
ornamental. The man arrested refuses to
| give his name. He was committed to the
City Hall cells to await further inquiry.
| Yesterday the officers ascertained that the
residence Of the accused, whose name is
Adrain Hercy, was in the outskirts of Will
liamsburgh. On proceeding thither they dis
| covered the plates, dies, and other materials
with which the bills were. manufactured
together with one hundred thousand dollars
worth of paper money. The bills were put
up in 800 packages, and filled two large
chests. A quantity of prepared bill paper
was also found. The whole was carted off tC
the City Hall last night. A number of per,
sons are supposed to have been engaged in
the manufacture of the spurious bills.

The Prince Of Wnlea.

ST. JOINS, N. F., July 25.-Y esterday ad-
dresses were presented to the Prince, to which
he replied as follows: "I sincerely thank you
for the addresses presented to me, and for the
hearty welcome received from all on my land
ing here, the shores of this, the earliest colo
nial possession of the British Crown. trust
you will not think me regardless of your
Jealous loyalty if l acknowledge these ad-
dresses collectively. 1t will afford me the
greatest satisfaction to report to the Queen
the devotion to her crown and person, unmis-
takably evinced by the reception of her son,
eloquently expressed in the addresses from
various bodies in this town and Harbor Grace.
am charged by the Queen to convey to you
the assurance of the deep concern she has ever
felt in this interesting portion of her domin-
ions. | shall carry back a lively recollection
of this days proceedings, anu yuur hiuunrss
to myself personally, but above all, of these
hearty demonstrations of patriotism, which
prove your deep-rooted attachments to the
great and free country of which we all glory
to be called her sons"
The Prince pleases the populace immensely
by his handsome countenance and mild gen
tlemanly bearing. He drives out to-day
There will be dinner party at the Govern
ment House this evening, and ball at ten
o'clock tonight. The fireworks last night
were poor affair.
To-day is beautiful clear day for the re-
gatta.

The London Times on the Departure for
Americn of the Prince of Wales.
The London Tunes Of July ., says al

The London Times of July ., says at the
close of slengthy editorial:
We may predict, without much arrogance,
that this visit will be u historical event.
What can be stronger and more worthy the
curiousity of those to come than the reception
by Republican President of Royal Prince
whose ancestor was deposed and resisted
during years of war by the nation which now
shows hospitality to his descendant We
might make the obvious reflections which
occur to every one ON this great revulsion of
feeling. 1t is, however, sufficient to say that
the demonstration indicates two things-frst
that the Americans are convinced that the
British State nourishes no insiduous designs
against them or their institutions, and that
they will not be misunderstood if they give
vent to their good feeling with something OF
their usual vehemence; and secondly, that
the character and personal demeanor of En-
glish royalty at the present day is such as TO
insure the respect even of those who have
discontinued it as political form.
In the United States the Prince will be re-
ceived with that cordiality which no people
can show better than Americans, and he will
no doubt respond by a bearing equally cour-
teous and honorable. Were the Prince older
in years, and were his stay longer, he might
bring back many new idea to be of service
to his country and its dependencies Such an
examination of the New World is hardly to
be hoped for. But there is one thing which
his Royal Highness, and all of us, may learn
from his visit, and that is, that neither civil
war, nor revolution, nor commercial rivalry,
nor political chickering's, nor acrimonious
social criticisms, can totally sunder nations
which, having common origin and language,
develope themselves by the practice of the
same free institutions.

BLosDIs's FOURTH PERFORMANCES AT Nj

BLoNDINs FOURTH PERFORMANCE AT NJ
afternoon, says the Nj
agara Falls IN. W Gazette, NJ. Blondin gave
his fourth public exhibition on his rope over
the Niagara. There were more people in
town than ON any previous occasion. Blondin
walked first from the Canada side, going
through his usual performances until he came
to the CENTER where he fastened his bal
ancing-pole to the cable and descended a
slack rope, the two ends of which are tas-
tened some fifty feet apart to his main cable,
the slack hanging some twenty to thirty
feet below. Upon this string he ran down
as though perfectly at home. He suspended
himself from this with straps hanging two
or three feet below. He also stood up, to
every appearance really dangerous act.
But when he whirled himself like Wheel
heels over head, and very fast, people held
their breath for fear and in utter amazement
Some turned their backs upon him, not
wishing to look upon such fearful perform
ance. After returning TO his highway he
completed the trip to the American side.

PRINCE JERoMB's WnL.-It is said that
Prince Jerome Bonaparte, after leaving a
fourth of his property to his daughter, the
Princess Mathilde, has given the entire re-
mainder to Prince Napoleon. This bequest
is very considerable one, for Jerome, having
become economical in his old age, spent only
FIVE or six hundred thousand francs of an in
come amounting to l,5OO, ,0O0f., composing his
civil list. Consequently, Prince Napoleon
will inherit many millions, beside enjoying
the chief of his fathers official emoluments.
To his son and grandson in Baltimore, it is
said that nothing has been left by Jerome
testament. The grandson, desiring to be
present in the last moments of his relative,
was unable to accomplish the wish, but by an
order of the Emperor, place was reserved
for him in the family pew at the InValides
between the American and the French Bona
parties for the succession of the crown Of
France2

A NEGRO INHUMANLY MURDERED BY TWO
OvERsEERs. Columbia (Tenn) Demo
cratic Herald of Saturday, gives an account
of a most barbarous and inhuman act of cru
city, perpetrated on slave of Mr.. d. Helm,
about fifteen miles from Columbia, by two
overseers on the Central Southern Railroad.
The Herald says that the slave had been run
off some time, and Mr.. Helm sent him back
on the passenger train. On the arrival of the
train at Dodsons Gap, fifteen miles distant
from Columbia, they took and tied him to u
beech tree, some one hundred yards distant
from the road, and stripping him, they
whipped him with leather straps and beech
limbs for three hours, giving him some one
thousand or twelve hundred lashes After
whipping very near all the skin off of his
back, they put turpentine on him and put
him out in the hot sun to work among the
rock; being of very stout and healthy consti-
tuition he survived it about twenty-four
hours, when he fell and died almost imme-
diately. ''a-iiA- NN t'
The overseers names are Frederick Wright
and Thomas S. McCrary. Mr.. Helm offers
$3.50 reward for the apprehension of Wright,
and fifty dollars for McCrary so that he can

GossIp ABOUT RoYALrY.-Queen Victoria
and Prince Albert, the German papers say,
are going on visit to Germany, and will pass
aweek or two at the Palace Rheinhartsbrunn,
the summer residence of the Duke of Sake
Coburg-Gotha, a place celebrated for the
beauty of its architecture, and the peculiar
tiles of its gardens. Here Prince Albert
passed his earlier youth. The Court Journal
officially denies the report, that the Princess
Alice is to marry the Prince of Hesse-Darm-
stadt, as announced in the English and copied
in the American papers. The Emperor and
Empress of France were to leave Paris on
the 10th instant for tour of twenty-five
days through Nice, Savoy, Corsica and AL
geria, and on their return would proceed to
their fayorite watering place, Biarritz, to
spend the autumn months. The royal in
dividuals assembled at the Congress of Baden
had not all left that place at latest accounts,
and the Grand Duke of Baden, the Grown
Prince of Saxony, the Prince Regent Of
Prussia, the King Of Bavaria and score Of
petty German potentates, are still at that
popular place of resort.

DECEPTION OF PORTUGUESE DINrNe.-A re

DECEPTION OF PORTUGUESE DINING,-A re-
cent traveller says:
Among other items of key-hole knowledge,
we noticed that every day, about dinner
time, our neighbors had table set out in
their parlor, with clean damask cloth and
napkins, pieces of bread, silver forks, spoons,
castors, &C., handsome wine-glasses and COB
let's, and all the paraphernalia of a very gem
teel dinner equipage. The table stood thus
during an hour or more so that If visitors
came in, they might suppose that the family
were preparing to sit down in style CONNIE Il
taa. But to this table they never did sit
down; for when the time of exhibition had
elapsed, all the fine things were taken off and
carefully put away for similar show the
next day, and the next. Meanwhile las we
found by accommodating through the kitchen
key-hole) the Portuguese family all assembled
in the place where their food was cooked
seated themselves on the floor round large
earthen pan filled with some sort of stew
and each dipped in pewter spoon and fec
out of that same pan. ,g hnr,w s n1
