A Philadelphia paper has these remarks
upon the making OF paper money: The gen.
eral public, while capable Of recognizing any
laws IN the impress OF bank notes or fractional
currency, knows very little of the care exer-
cised by the government in protecting itself
against their fraudulent ISSUE or of the many
safeguards thrown around the various stages
which greenbacks undergo before they are
placed IN circulation. Every possible contin-
gencyi so surrounded with strict enactments
and so much red tape is necessary, that the
expense Of printing Treasury notes is enor-
nous In the first place, the manufacture of
the peculiar paper used is supervised by gov
eminent inspectors. against whose integrity
numberless checks and counter checks have
been devised and are strictly enforced. In
The mex. stage, printing the backs of notes, the
closest supervision is exercised and the strict
est account required. 1t is safe to calculate
that before lfty cent note reaches the public
it will have been counted at least TWENTY-FIVE
hines.
