ARREST FOR CIRCULATING COUNTERFEIT
MONEY, Gov. II. Deane, of Abingdon,
Va, was arrested at that place on Sunday
last by Colonel George T. Egbert, chief
operator in the secret service division Of the
Treasury Department for the southern
States.
The accused was brought to this city and
examined before United States Commits
sioner George r. Buffum yesterday. The
examination disclosed the fact that Deane
was at the head of large party who are
engaged In circulating this bogus money
throughout the South, and had in his pos
session when arrested $3.50 in bogus twenty
dollar greenbacks, together with dies and
moulds for counterfeiling silver half dollars,
and receipt for making the metal -.
! The United States Treasury notes are oil
of the denomination of twenty dollars, and
gotten up in such manner as to deceive the
most expert detective. They were dated
| Washington, March 10th, 1852. Over the
female figure in the centre the note Ii
marked series 6, and on left end the letter
B. The robe or drapery about the female
is coarse, and not so well executed as the
balance Of the engraving. This is I'M
doubleday the most dangerous counterfeit
| in circulation, as notes from the same plate
have been received by the revenue depart
| l1ltLG ucic uouoCo LII Dhh 'A'S =,
| in weekly remittances from the collector
there, and passed without being detected.
| Deane was sent back to Abingdon last
night. and committed, in default of $50, O0O
bail. to answer before the United States
Court, at Richmond, on the 18th of March
Virgin,an.
The Republican says: "Col. Eebert sent
q detective to the county with orders
to ascertain the names Of the counterfeit
ers, form their acquaintance, and trade
with them. The agent followed instruc-
lions to the letter; introduced himself to
VIM. II. Deane, who is supposed to be the
chief of the gang, spent some time at his
house, and negotiated trade for $3.50 in
| counterfeit greenbacks, to be delivered in
Abingdon on Friday last. True to the ap'
pointment, Deane reached Abingdon, where
he met his supposed confederate, with the
money he had promised. Growing conf:
DENTAL and communicative, he exhibited
dies and moulds for the manufacture of sill.
yer half dollars, Boosting that he was the
leader and ruler of the clan, and had I'm.
limited facilities for the manufacture OF
both paper and specie money. Deane
| has heretofore borne a good character"
