A DANGEROUS CoUNrRFRLT.-It
is reported that a most dangerous
counterfeit SIS treasury note is in cir
culation. 1t is said that the easiest
mode of detection is by the green Or
namental engraving lengthwise, which
in the counterfeit is a paler color and
consequently has a brighter look than
the dark green of the original. Seen
under the microscope, the engraving
of the countefeit is coarsor than the
original, and there are some misplace
ments Oh omissions but to the naked
eye it presents a genuine appearance.

ed was SIX hundred millions. 1t is
calculated as many more are used

of the Rev. Mr.. Robinson, Pastor o.
the Presbyterian church of this place,
will be pleased to learn, from the no.
tice in another column, that it is pro-
posed to pay a tribute of respect to.
him on the occasion of the 25th ami
versary Of his installment as pastor
of this church. When we say friends,
we do not restrict our meaning to the
membership of Mr.. Robinson's charge.
We know that among the various
christian denominations ofthe placeas
well as with the more respectable
portion of our community, unconnect-
ed with the church organizations, the
name of Mr.. Robinson has been a
synonym for purity of character,
christian department and enlarged
benevolence. After a quarter of a
century of devoted and Jealous labor
for the moral and intellectual growth
of u village and vicinage, the pro-
posed reunion of his friends, is a COM
pliment as honorable in its inception,
as deserved by the recipient. We
trust that the entire community will
respond to this invitation and join in
token of respect to one VIII has
go long and worthily ministered to the
spiritual wants of this people, and
who has always been foremost in all
projects for the advancement of the
moral, mental and physical condition

How TO REDUCE GAS BILLs.--As
many of our readers complain of high
gas bills, we give them the following,
which we clip from an exchange:
LIST In lighting your gas, turn the
gas on the meter about one-half, then
light the gas, and regulate the lights
by the stop cock that lets the gas into
the meter. This prevents the pressure
of gas from making the index move
SO fast. The greater the pressure of
gas on the meter, The faster it moves,
and the larger-wM be.the: gas bill.
: 2d-From the time th- gas is us
ually lighled until halfpasf eight or
nine o'clock the pressure is the same
After ibe stores and Stops are closed,
the p,<ssure is then grester or the
mesers in the use, and the stop-cock
should be turned at the time so as to
regulate the pressure.
An observance of these directions
may entail some little trouble. but it
will most certainly reduce gas bills
very materially. Many persons pay
as much for gas hat is vast.
ed, as for what they consume. and
waste may be entirely prevented by
following these rules.
