The country, almost ia the com.
mencement of the rebellion, was cleo
trifed by the order Of General Dix -
"If any man attempts to haul down the
American flag, shoot him on the spot"
The same spirit should animate the pso-
pie now, and if any man attempt to
desert the Union cause, or refuses to
fling to the breeze the banner of that
holy cause, let him be riddlsd .by the
batteries OF public indignation.

De based Gold Coto-- dangerous Conn
ferfrsts IN circulation.

The withdrawal OF gold from circulation has
given time to experts In counterfeiting % mann
iaeture large quantities Of TILED coin. which are
nov la extensive circulation. The resumption
of payment OF custom duties In gold. In coilse
qaencc Of the scarcity of demand notes, has
brought out the false coin IN company with the
genuine. and the counterieits are ~ we'll made
that none but experts can delec' them.
Many Of the banks 81 this city have received
and paid this false issue, brokers tske and sell IL
aud IL l. sent 90 the Custom House 90 paw dutie-
without criminal knowledge or intent. The pro
portion of the filled coin now In use Is not large
as compared with the genuine currency; but IL j.
nevertheless true that lev of the men handling u
know whether the coin Il genuine or not. and the
unintiated cannot possibly detect the work OF the
tamperers.
At the Custom House almost every day the
filed pieces are sent In for payment OF duties
while the rejection of number Of them In one
day j. not uncommon The discovery Of these
pieces II followed Immediately by cutting them in
halves with a chise. when they are returned to
their owners, who Of course replace them with
good coin.
The system OF filing as now practised. is said
10 have originated some years ago California. and
was first detected in England in the process Of
melting the coin The business is now. if posi-.
BILE, more carefully. and also more extensively
conducted. The process j. 10 split the coin, TO
take from the centre third to one half. and in
some cases larger proportion of the gold, which
is carefully weighed and an equal amount Of pla-
tina. or alloy OF patna of an inferior quality put
in its place--in what manner IL Is not precisely
understood The sides Of the coin are then
closed. and the edge is re milled. and the whole
of the work is 80 accurately done that not only
the weight of the pic' remtins unchanged, but
the size remains the same. or so nearly the same
that the difference is not perceptble. and what is
most singular the ring is perfectly clear This
test therefore, which is generally employed tC
detect spurious coin. is quite useless although
some experts think they can by this means Oh
serve and detect the filled pieces. The milling
of the coin most frequently reveals its charac
ter
AT the present rate of premium. six to seven
dollars worth of gold can be taken from a ten
dollar gold piece while the filling il estimated TO
be worth about tour dollars per ounce one fifth,
perhaps. of the value of the metal distracted.
The skill with which this fraud is committed
constitutes its chief danger, but it is by no means
likely that any large proportion OF our gold coin
will ever be debssed.

Mr.. Biair's speech at Concord.

The speech OF Postmaster General Blair, at

lecture. We will state briefly its salient points
His discussion OF the new origin of the war was
not literally different from that which il

views OF ultra Aboltionists Mr.. Blair thought
it "A ft occasion To condemn Tiituns theory of

serious extent in the Administration party. he
certainly wasted much force and argument upon
a subject of little Importance He assumes
emancipation to be a settled fact; that slavery
is abolished by the rebellion and its consequences
by the war. and the constitutional means accord
ed 20 the Government tor its defense" But he
says: "Our civil war, closing in the mahumis
sion of four millions OF slaves, to take equal
rank with six millions of enslavers. would be but
the prelude to a servile war of determination. |

We now propose TO try the Journal by its own

States. IL preferred dsnnion TO civil war. 1t

We ask. why these constant efforts upon the

that will justify the placing Of loyal States and
loyal people under the ban of martial law?
