For some time past, says the Sc Louis

Sunday night last search was made.

Treasury Note; the back only being
printed. was taken. from coat hanging
in Che room. A man named Wolkey was
arrested, and in the coat was found a
certificate bearing his name. Wolkey
denied all knowledge of the criminal
business, but said that a man named
Walker boards at the house and Owned
the tools. This Walker was known to
be notorious counterfeiter, who also
went by ihe name of Hill. For the
time being he could not be found, but
on Tuesday night he was arrested at a
house in Dubreuil street, while working
at the engraver's bench in copying a
u. S. ten dollar Treasury Note.4s e.rq
A search Of the premises resulted in
the discovery of upward of 100000 in
counterfeit u. S. tens, and all the I'M

plates used in printing the United States
Treasury Notes are of steel, and have
been pronounced by good judges fine

also found, as well as some eight or ten

Ia addition TO these, a finished plate for

immense quantity of Treasury Notes
seized, only some S25, 600 were nearly
finished. This amount was found strung
by a thread in room. for the nnrnnas

unfinished, being printed on but one side

When the history of this rebellion
eha1 be written, in the full light and
development of its marvellous facts, there
are none who will receive higher need
of praise than the loyal men of the
South. Holding fast their integrity un-
der Affections the most distressing, amid
insult and reproach, and contumely, they
suffered in silence and waited. Like
men inhumed in the bottom OF a fallen
well, and listening TO the blows of their
friends above who are 1oiling for their
relief, they have suffered none the less,
that they were powerless to help them
selves, and their cries for relief
were unayailing if not nnhea=d. The
following article from the Cleveland
PlaiaaeaEer, indicates that they are not
forgotten by the lovers Of their country.

"SuBsTITUTEs."--A correspondent of
the New Orleans Crescent, at Richmond,
writes as follows:
Our chief article of commerce now-a-
days is commodity known in the mark
ct as Substitutes" The article has
risen from 500 TO 5000, again TO $500,
and from that to $1,000 and 81, 800. The
cheapest kind now Offering commands
$500 readily. A wretch named Hill, has
been making enormous sums, as much as
from $4,000 to $1,000 day, by plunder-
ing substitutes, some of whom are the
very scum Of the earth, while others are
poverty stricken Marylanders of high
social position at home and men of real
moral worth. A friend of mine bought
a substitute from Hill for $400 He saw
Hill give the poor devil 500 and put
the remaining S400 in his pocket AS
my friend went out the door, he met a
gentleman, who told him he had Just
paid 81 500 for substitute.
On this sum, it is possible the substi-
tute received 5000, and Hill the other
$1,000. To-day he went mp Main street
with at least fifty men at his heels. You
may therefore infer that be coins money
more rapidly than the Yankee distiller,
Stearns, now in Jail with Bolts, who
used to make $4,000 day by furnish
ing his vile stuff to Southern soldiers.
The fact is, this business of buying and
selling substitutes is abOminable all
around The men who come here from
the country to buy them are run mad
until they get them-they are absolutely
crazy with fear lest they should fail IA
obtain them-and seem willing 10 spend
their last dollar in the effort On the
other hand, the exhibition of his persons
to which the substitute is subjected, is
ridiculous and disgusting. He is strip
ped TO the skin, percussed, ausculated
examined from top 70 toe, like horse
showing OIL his PAGES. A lovely bust
ness, truly.
Where are all the thousands who wer,

The BURNSIDE ExPEDITIoN.--A letter
20 the Philadelphia Inquirer dated Beau
fort, March 81, gives some further par
ticulars of the condition of affairs at
that point. We make the following
extracts:
The chief interest is at present mainly
centred in the proposed investment of
Fort Macon, which is situated about
equi distant from, Beaufort and Moor
head City, across Bogue Sound. The
distance from these places to the Fort
is about mile and quarter. 1t is a
small fortification but very strongly
built, aud is garrisOned by about six
hundred men, under the command OF
Col. White (not Smith, as before report
ed) formerly an officer of the United
States Army, and graduate of West
Point.
The Fort is supplied with sufficient of
certain kinds of provisions to last for
several months, but Of others the stock
is very short Col. White, who appears
TO be misanthropic, sulben and unheal-
thy style of man, threatened TO shell
Beaufort If his fresh provisions were
stopped. They have been stopped, but
as many of his troops belong to and
have relatives and friends in that city
he has probably thought better if it, his
threat not having been executed. He
compensates himself for this, however
by firing upon every fishing smack or
other craft, however small, which at
tempts TO pass between Beaufort and
Moorhead City, both Of which places
are occupied by Union troops. The re-
ductiOn of the Fort is but question O
time and labor, but Col. White is cvi'
IDENTIFY disposed TO put our forces TO al
the tronble possible, there seeming to b.
no other reason for his refusing to sur
render at discretion what he must sOOr
be forced TO give up.
The stars and bars float deliantly
over the fort, and with glass the sen.
tinels can be seen pacing TO and fro up
on the ramparts Col. White has taSeI
