COUNTERFEIT FRACTIONAL CURRENCY IN THE
SoUTH.-A Washington letter to the Baltimore
Transcript says: Reports received at the Treasury
Department state that the Southern States are at
present flooded with counterfeit United States
notes, national bank notes and fractional currency
of every denomination. One of the Treasury de-
tectives, while on an official visit in one of the
Southern cities, observed that an immense guam
tity of this spurious money is circulating there
among all classes, who, with few exceptions, ac-
eept it as readily as the genuine. The detective
having received, while making some trifing pur-
chases, nearly one-half his change in counterfeit
money, and being desirous of ascertaining some
estimate of the amount Of this trash in circulation,
seized upon the money 'tis' of several merchants
doing quite an extensive business, and discovered
shat about onehaf their contents were counterfeit
which consisted of United States notes of the va
rious issues and denominations of fractional cur
rency, and quite number of eounterfeits the
national banks of the North and West. A post
mistress in one of the Southern States recently
turned to the Treasury $780, which she had re-
eeived from the sale of internal revenue stamps,
and upon examination $50 of the amount was de-
tected as spurious, which unfortunately for her.
she must make good"

THE MASONIC CELEBRATION AT pERcETowN.

1t was our privilege on Tuesday, oath inst, to
be in attendance on the Masonic Celebration at
Piercetown in the upper portion Of this District,
but want of space in this issue prevents an ex-
tended notice of the occasion. Upon arriving at
the place, we Immediately Joined the brethren at
the Lodge Room, from whence procession OF near
two hundred Masons of various Lodges was formed
and marched to the stand, around which had as
sembled an immense concourse of ladies and gen.
tlemen The exercises were opened with prayer
by Rev. ]. NJ. CARLISLE, after which Bro. u. j.
BARNETT introduced Capt THOMAS HALL, who en-
tertained the audience for three quarters of IN
hour in polished and excellent address upon the
subject of Masonry. The next speaker, Rev. W.
E. WALTERS, for more than an hour illustrated the
beauties and advantages of the Order, combating
popular errors in regard to the institution and
claiming its superiority for general good. Both
addresses were well-conceived and happily de-
liyered, and impressed the vast auditory with the
excellence and purity of the principles advocated
When the speaking was concluded, the procession
was reformed and marched again to the Lodge,
and the entire assemblage invited to participate in
the discussion of tempting eatables, which were
spread with prodgal but fair hands for the enter
tainment of the inner man. 1t was not long ere
the various baskets and tables were duly consulted
and everybody was diving into the mysteries OF
the cuisine. None were allowed to go away empty,
but on the contrary each individual was surfeited
-almost-with the profuse array of substantials
and delicacies.
The entire day passed off with unalloyed pleas
ure and qualification, and especially were the
friends of Masonry glad to observe perfect good
order and sobriety regning throughout the occa-
sion. The hospitality and liberality of the com
munity will long be remembered by the hundreds
of strangers who were the recipients of courteous,
kind and generous attentions

TIE CABINET CHANGEs.-The New York 7Fi-
6une, in its Washington correspondence, has the
following:
"Judge stansbury, of Ohio, is mentioned as q
successor to Attorney-General Speed. He is the
most prominent candidate. 1t will be remembered
that he is the reputed author Of the veto message
of the civil rights bill.
"Governor Sharkey, of Mississippi, is in town.
Cabinet makers have his name down on the slate
as Secretary Harlan's successor. The unrecon-
structed patriots of the South demand one of the
seats in the Cabinet, and Sharkey is their avaia-
BILE representative.
Secretary Harlan is ready to go at any time, but
may not resign for several days, while the course
of Secretary Stanton is more uncertain, although
he is as unsatisfed as any of the others in his dis
approval of the Presidents coursc.''

1t is probable that the President will sign the joint
resolution so as to provide for the admission of
Tennessee Representatives, but he will protest
against sending it to him, because he has nothing
to do with the admission of members of Congress,

stating the truth, inasmuoh as it asserts that the
Tennessee Legislature has adopted the proposed
amendment to the Constitution, when, in fact, it
has net been adopted by quorum of both branches
of the Legislature.

OF the bitter compounds you are solicited by the
proprietors to accept as universal panaceas are

poison almost as deadly as prussic acid, The
basis of the regular tinctures of the Ma.cli Ia
