The news from South Carolina received
during the last three or four days, has pro-
duced universal excitement among our citi-
zens, and we haveyAt to hear of but few per-
sons who do not fully sympathise with the
people OF the gallant Palmetto State in their
determination to throw off the Black Repub-
lican rule On the receipt Of the first news,
concerning the evae euation of Fort Moultrie by
the u. S. troops and probable collision with
the South Carolinians, about fifty OF our
young men, determined and true promptly
enrolled themselves, under pledge to leave At
moments warning, for Charleston, prepared
to render whatever aid and service they might
be called upon to perform in defence Of Sout b
Carolina. The number has since been largely
increased, and. were it deemed imperatiyeiy
necessary, the number could oe easily raised
20 hundreds We trust there may be no occa-
sion for their services but should such be the
case, from our knowledge of the material, we
feel assured that their pledge will be implicit
~ fulfilled, and that South Carolina will not
secure the support of a braver and more chiv-
alrons band.-Lynehbarg (VaJ Rep.

How To Detect Counterfeits.


l. Examine the appearance Of bill
the genuine have general dark
neat appearance.
2. Examine the vignette, or picture
in the middle of the top see if the
sky or back ground looks clear and
transparent or soft and even, and not
scrstcby.
8. Examine well the face see if
the expressions are distinct and easy,
natural and life-llke, particularly the
eyes.
4. See II the drapery Of dress fits
well, looks natural and easy, and
shows the folds distinctly.
s. Examine the medallion, ruling
and heads, and circular ornaments
around the figures, &c. See If they
are regular, smooth, uniform, not
scratchy.
ibis worS In the genuine looks as
If raised on the paper and cannot be
perfectly initiated.
6. Examine the principal line of
letters or name Of the bank. See If
they are all upright. perfectly true,
or, if sloping, or of a uniform slope.
Z. Carefully examine the shade or
parallel ruling or the face or outside
of the letters. &c. /; see if IL is clear,
and looks as if coloured with brush
The fine and parallel lines in the gen
uine are of equal size, smooth ard
even ; counterfeits look as if done
with q file.
8. Observe the round handwriting
engraved on the bill, which should be
black equal in size and distance, of a
uniform shape, and smooth. This is
in genuine notes invariably well done,
and looks very perfect. In counter.
feits it is seldom so but often looks
stiff, as If done With a pen.
9. Notice the imprint or engravers
name, which is always alike letters
small upright, and engraved very
perfectly Counterfeits seldom do it
well.
Note. 1t was remarked by Stephen
Burroughs, before he died, that two
things could not be counterfeited
-one was the dye work, or portrait,
medallion heads, vignette, &c. and
the other the shading, or ruling
above the letters. Bank Note Re-

A story is told Of Senator Josep',
lane of Oregon, which will heae .
repetition: Account Of the Senator's
rebel sentiments and movements pre-
ceded his return home, and it is said,
rendered him very unpopular, partic-
ular after the attack on Fort Sumpter.
When he reached the shores of the
Pacific he began to feel his unpopu-
larity in varions ways but no remark
was made to him and in his hearing
was more cutting than that of a stage
driver with whom he had entered into
conversation without disclosing his
name. In the ccnrse of his talk the
Senator took occasion to remark that
he considered himself at that time
about the worst abused man in the
State. ''Well, / don't know about
that, replied the driver If you
are any worse abused than that Joe

LOVERS OF ALE have pronounced this the

continue to recommend it for the cure of
Dyspepsia.
Its virtue lies in its purity. Being COM
pounded of Malt and Hops, its curative
properties must at once become apparent to
those acquainted with the virtue of either in
gredient- Its manufacture is conducted with
the most scrupulous care, and it is undenia-
bly, the BEST ALE manufactured either in this
or the old country at the present day.
1t contains no Intoxicating liquor or inju-
rious drug, and will not intoxicate During
the heat of summer, it is the safest and most
healthy beverage that can be used, and pro-
duces none of the evil effects caused by the
use of distilled liquor.
1t is put up in barrels for the use of deal
ers, and in kegs for family use. Price, in
barrels, ten dollars; in fifteen gallon kegs,
five dollars, in bottles, packed in boxes of

A WONDERFUL INvENTIoS.-We met gen.
tleman in town yesterday who has an appa-
ratus with which he is confident that, after
getting everything ready, he can take Fort
Sumter in less than ten minutes without
firing gun. If the Government at Wash
ington is determined not to evacuate the
Fort, and if the Government at Montg omery
is determined to take it, we would recon-
mend trial of this really wonderful inveD-
ton. 1t will accomplish its work without
the shedding of drop of blood, and at
very trifiing cost to the Confederate States.
We have seen model of it, and would be
willing, had we the money, to pledge fifty
thousand dollars that it will perform all that
is claimed for it. We saw it take and transfx
an ablebodied man, weighing some two hun
dred pounds, with as much ease as a whole
squad of policemen would capture a boy five
years old after getting him cornered.
1t is the invention of an ingenious French
man, and is called, we believe, photo
graphic apparatus.

TT The editor of the New York World
stated the other day that copy of his pa
per had been returned by subscriber in
Nashville with '.stop this d-n abolition pa
per, d-n you," written on the wrapper
That subscriber was DR.. PAUL F. EVE. DR..
EVE authorizes the Union and american to
say that he did discontinue the World, but
wrote nothing like that attributed to him.
The Postmaster here testifes that no such
language passed through his Office over DR..
Ewes signature. 1t is quite likely that the
editor of the World got copy of his paper
with these d-ns written on it; but every
body in Nashville knows that DR.. EVE is
member of the church and does MT ''cuss."
1t is very evident, therefore, that somebody
has been swearing at the World over his sig
nature.
