I'VE learn that there is now being cir
culating in Pittsburgh and along the
Pennsylvania railroad. one of the most
dangerous and best executed counter
feits of our national currency that has
yet made an appearance. The bill is IT
the denomination of five dollars, on the
Traders National Bank, Ill. We have
not heard that any of our business men
have yet been yictimized, but it would
be as well to give i've dollar bills of the
above bank most rigid scrutiny before
accepting any of them.

It. W. Renshaw, the popular drug
gist Of Summit Ill., was in town
Thursday night. He reports all quiet
among the miners at that place, and
says there has not as yet occurred any
occasion for the services of outsiders to
maintain order. We gather from his
remarks that the men go about their
business quietly and orderly, but with
the determination to stand firm till the
'bitter end"-that they will succeed
In getting what they claim as their
just rights. ...
