A New MODE OF CoUNTERFEITING
"A teller in one of our banks, says
Boston paper, discovered the other day
very ingenious mode resorted to by coun-
terfeiters to make profit by little
manipulation Of genuine bills. The
plan is in this wise Take, say, ten FIVE
dollar bills. Lay one on the other
quarter OF an inch below the top, some
thing after paper bags. When they are
thus neatly laid off a knife is run through
them, and of course, from the first bill
quarter of an inch will be cut off,
half inch from the second, three-quar-
ters from the third, an inch from the
fourth, and so on to the tenth bill, from
the bottom of which there is taken
very small portion, nothing more than
the border. This bill is left as it is,
but to all the others the parts taken off
are neatly pasted on, and the result is
that there will be eleven bills, perfect,
except small reduction in the size of
each. OF course the operator makes five
dollars in every ten. The amount taken
from each is so small and the bills being
generally all of one kind, it is a very
difficult matter to detect them The
bill detected by the teller referred to was
bunglingly done-the top being part
of an Ohio bill, while the bottom was a
part of Baltimore bill. TIE names of
the places are prominent, and conse-
quently bills on the same bank or place
are preferred.

THIS AND NoTH1NG MoRE.-An emf
nent citizen of New York died, leaving
a fortune of three millions to be divided
between one son and three daughters.
The merchant was regular old SKIN
flint, and denied himself the common
of life that he might amass a
fortune. His great leading passion was
to have his boy wealthy and leave a
name among the rich men of New York.
The boy understood thing or two, and
as his bread and butter were sure, he be-
gan early to play the role of the fast
young man. He married young and
made his wife as miserable as a woman
ought to be who marries man she does
not love and cannot respect, for his mon.
ey. His father died and the youngstel
entered upon his possessions. His in
come was $4,000 year. After a ca
and dog life for season, in drunker
brawl, the man killed his wife aud ther
killed himself. He left his large prop
erty to be squabbled over by doubtful
heirs. Had this wealthy father giver
his boy good business education, indus
trial habits and a sound constitution
then left his money to some college o,
some missionary society, and bequeatheC
the boy saw and wood-horse, he woulC
have left him much better off than b,
did when he died and made the son
millionaire.

Observation-Disclosures k--Baker.

Senator Douglass openly declared in
favor of popular sovereignty. lie OPP
posed " Lecompton in the Senate with
that persistent pluck for which be was
more remarkable than any other of his
cotemporary statesmen. He was re-
moved from the position he had long
held-chairman of the committee ON
territories-and his influence with the
administration was destroyed. Never
theless he kept up the fight with most
admirable gallantry and with increasing
earnestness, richly earning the approba-
ton OF his countrymen, and receiving
the hearty plaudits OF the Republicans.
Among eminent men of the Democrat
ic party who sustained Mr., Douglass,
was Senator David c. Broderick Of Cali
fornia. Mr.. Broderick had risen from an
humble position in life. He spent his
youth and early manhood in the city of
New York, where his natural talents
and courageous spirit gave him large in
Auence. Removing to California not
long after the war with Mexico, he be-
came a prominent citizen in the new
State, and rapidly grew in intellectual
and moral stature. He was elected to
the United States Senate in 1856, and
there his commanding presence, chival-
ric bearing, and brilliant parts as de-
bator at once gave him prominence and
influence. Unless it we're by the ruffian-
ly assault upon Senator Sumner in 1896,
by representative from South Carolina,
the utter barbarism of the slave. power
was not more conspicuously illustrated
than in the case of the accomplished and
generous Broderick. The slave power
doomed him to destruction, and he fell
in duel in Sept. 1859, slain by the
Chief Justice Of the State which this vic
tim of horrible custom, had done SO
much to honor. The death of Mr..
Broderick gave occasion for one of the
noblest exhibitions of American elo-
quence, in the appreciative, majestic and
profoundly pathetic funeral Grafton by
Edward d. Baker, who met his death in
battle gallantly contending against the
same power at whose command Broderick
himself had fallen.

A Virginia city (Nevada) man is
said to have invented an ingenious plan
of keeping his house clear of insurance
agents and similar nuisances. On one
side of the path leading to the door, he
has fixed several sections of water pipes
filed with small holes, and on the APP
proaeh of suspicious character tap
is turned, and instantly numerous jets
of water en6lade the path in all diree-
tions, and effectually keep the invader
at q safe distance.

Andrew jackson was once making a
stump speech in country village out
West. Just as he was concluding, Amos
Kendall, who sat beside him, whispered,
Zip 'em little Latin, General; they
won't be satisfied without it." The "he-
70 of New Orleans " instantly thought
of few phrases he knew, and in voice
of thunder, wound up his speech by ex-
claiming :. E pluribus unum, Sine qua
non, Ne plus ultra, Multum in parvo. y
The effect was tremendous, and the
shouts could be heard for miles.
