ns- IRRESPONSIBLE COUNTERFEIT,

Frs. One of the most serious annoyances which
the proprietors of an article in unusual demand
have to encounter is the piratical imitation OF 1t by
parties equally INSCRIPTIONS and irresponsible.
II An individual or a firm with mtnas engages IN
this nefarious business, the damages awarded by Il
court of Justice for the offence are collcctable, and
IL is some satisfaction 10 the party wronSed that
the wrongcr Is made Ia suffer but In most cases
the ,irut.S are meA or Strn,c, who cannot respond
in dollars to the laws award.

Oh its face, has been extensively counterfeited and
simulated. The proprietors have spent many thou
sand dollars in huntiny up and hunting dotrn ire
sponsible individuals and firms who have given
their minds to this dirty work. These parties
some of them, at least-have a way OF changing
their base, though they never change their bdSe-
ness. When an injunction is laid upon them In
one part Of the country they sometimes
to another, and try the trick again. In some cases
IL is necessary TO kill them two or three times over.
Perhaps the best thing that can be done under these
circumstances Is to I" lay on injunction" upon all

they can trust. In every city, town, and village of
the United States and British America this famous

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THURSDAY, August ., 1866.

There is ~stsgnation In business gene
rally. The large cities complain very
much. New York, with an abundance Of
money at s64 and $685. to 7 per cent.
Der annum, finds little demand for it,
owing to this ~stagnation. Speculation is
therefore inviting, and too many that are
in search of fortunes 90 to treacherous
Wall street, where so many are swallowed
up in the whirlpool Of adversely. II the
holders of capital could only remember the
number that perish there to the one sue
cessful adventurer, they would be per-
suaded to invest in something more tangi-
BILE and enduring. We have in this State
lands, mines, water power, and improve
ments, offering the finest of opportunities
for profitable investment, in which there
can be hardly q possibility of loss, and out
of which handsome profits will almost
surely be realized. If they who peril their
all in Wall-street gambling could be in.
duccd to put even a part of their means in
such property as this. they would at least
be saved from utter ruin by untoward en-
counters in the strife of the Bulls and
Bears.
A number of Wall-street dealers have
pctitioncd Mr.. McCulloch not to keep gold
in the vaults of the Treasury, but to sell il
once a week. They are supposed to be
"shorts," who are exceedingly anxious to
get the Secretary into the humor to sell,
They will not be gratifed. When the Sc.
cretary sold this gold on q former occasion
it was to ease off the foreign demand and
prevent the oppression of the trading com
munity. There is no such demand now
and he will not undertake to relieve the
shorts" of Wall street.
Gold opened in New York this morning
at l4sN, and maintained its rates with lit
tic variation, closing at 1881. No change
in stocks and exchange.
