During last fall abou. 100000 in counter
felt Ilaytien notes were manufactured in New
York City, and sent to Hayti, where they were
placed in circulation. The Hayticn Treasury
Department at length discovered the counter
feit5 and informed the New York police. The
manufacturers of the money were arrested on
the 7th. The mon were employed to do the
work by John Russ. Russ says that he was
employed TO prepare the plates by an Admiral
in the Haytier navy, and that the Admirars
story was TO the effect that he had been depu-
tized TO have the work done, by the Govern
ment. He duplicates three officers in the Hay
tien Government in the transaction. About
100000 of the spurious money was put in cir
cttlation in I1ayti, before its real character was
discovered. The note is very poorly executed,
and how 1t escaped detection for so long time
is mystery

TIE World Il grumblihgly. asking the Gin.
6innail Eaqth6r what kind bf Democracy
they havc In Ohio, y and the Eaqairor is, no
doubt equally in doubt as 10 what kind Of
Democracy they have in New York The an
swer for both is that there is no kind of gcnu-
inc Democracy either in Ohio or New York
that goes by the name They are all merely
diversified patterns of shoddy sham.
"vismbE AbMrxruBE 4cr."--A more mh-
nous law thar, that known by the above name
which the Democratic Legislature or this
State, passed at its last session, is not to be
found upon any statute book Itprovides that
a negro shall 30 TO the penitcntiary from one
TO five years for voting, while non on-resdent
white man or an unnaturalized foreigner, for
the same ofensc, is punished sufficiently if he
goes to the county Jail and spends from one to
six months there. 1t also enacs that if per-
son induces negro to vote he must atone for
his offense Ivy spending from one to five years
in the penitcntiOry, but if he induces a non
resident to cast fraudulent vote he can salts
fy the vengeance of the law by spending from
one to six months in the county Jail. The
State Joul7Gl remarks "Our statute provides
that nonresident must know that he is an IL
legal voter before he can be convicted of lille
gal voting, but our General Assembly says
that 1t is not necessary for negro to know
that he is an Illegal voter" Aud this outrage
upon the commonest principles of justice, we
have 10 doubt, will be admireda and commend
cd by tlIree-quarters of those who call them
selves Democrats in every State of the Union.
