How TO DETECT CoUNERFEITs.-A
rule by which counterfeit greenbacks or
national bank notes may be detected
has lately been discovered, which, up
on thorough trial, has proved infallible.
1t is this: Divide the last two figures OF
the bill by four, and if one remains, the
letter on the genuine will be A; if two
remain, it will be b; ifthree, G. Should
there be no remainder, the letter will
be d. For example, note is registered
2,461 divide 61 by 4, and you have one
remaining. According to the rule, the
letter on the note will be A. In case the
rule fails, be certain the bill is q coun-
terfeit.
That it is not reliable is apparent from
the following letter from General Spin
ner referring to the matter
TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES DIvf-
SION, WAsHISGToN, December Is, 1867
SIR: Your rule for the detection OF
counterfeit notes, while it applies to the
genuine, cannot be regarded as infalible,
for the reason that through accident ol
by design, it might apply equally well
to the counterfeit.
Very respectfully. F. L. SPINNER.
Treasurer Of the United States

RADICAL CoNVENTIoN.-Att the meet
ing of the Radical Executive Commit
tee, to fix the time and place for hold
ing their nominating conv ention,
(which, by the way, is to be at
Chicago on the Goth of May neXt,) it
was proposed by Governor Ward, of
New Jersey, member friendly to the
nomination of Grant, to formally
change the name of the party from
Republican" to "National Union"
In support of this proposition it was
urged that many outsiders could be
brought into the organization under a
new name, but Mr.. Horace Greeley
thought otherwise. He considered the
proposition, If carried out, fatal to the
success of the party. 1t would amount
simply to striking their colors in the
face of the enemy, and the majority ol
the committee agreeing with Horace,
the proposition, it is understood, was
voted down. This is regarded as Il
triumph for the Chase men, as it was
only in the interest Of the Grant faction
that the change was desired.

THE CAT TRADE.-The New York
correspondent of the Rochester Demo-
crot, in speaking of the eat trade of the
metropolis, says:
"Cat skins are now used extensively
for mufis and sleigh robes, and hence
Il heavy slaughter is done of those ami
mails; but the highest value of the cat
is found in domestic life. A frst-rate
mouser is worth twenty five dollars.
Therc ere now several persons dealing
in cats, which are in great demand, and
shipments are made from the country.
An invoice of twenty-five cats was late
ly received by one individual. They
were confined in box, and came
safe at small expense. We understand
that II market can be obtained fora large
number of these animals at paying
prices"
We hope the proprietor Of that mar
ket will establish an agency in this vi
cinity.
