IN THE COUNTERFEITING BUSINESS.

On Monday, Mayor Endom received
information that one v. Angeles, an
Italian who has been vending fruit,
was about embarking in the business
of counterfeiting. Angeles has a little
fruit shop at Five Points as base, but
peddles his fruit around town, after the
manner of his people. A search war
rant was procured, and placed in the
hands of Constable Tim Larkin, who
at once proceeded to an Investigation
of the alleged charge of counterfeiting.
Angeles was arrested. Across the
street from the fruit stand is large
frame building, with loft. Into this
loft, or second story, the Constable,
with Angeles and another Italian,
found their way. The search was
frnitless for awhile, but, very soon, the
Constable found what he was after, hid
away in the loft. The mint for coming
counterfeit hard money was seized and
brought to the city calaboose.
Tho outfit is entirely new, and has
never been used. 1t consists of lot OF
mouids, metal, and plaster of Paris.
The moulds are made of the plaster,
cast in two pieces, none of them having
q surface of more than four inches
square, with 4 thickness of about one
inch. Each mould is confined with a
cord, and has a hole at one edge. Upon
removing the cord, the two pieces of
plaster readily separate, and the i'm
preston of the coin to be counterfeited
is exposed. Pouring the metal into
the hole on the edge, it runs down into
this impression, the same as in mould
ing bullets, and the coin is made, ex-
cept that there is a ssneck" on the edge
which has to be dressed off. Among
tho outfit was found three new files, to
be used for this purpose, no doubt.
The metal found will weigh about 10
pounds, not enough to have flooded
the country with hard money, but
sufficient to have inflated the peanut
currency for some time. There arc
numbers of small bars OF this metal,
bent like croquet hoops, and also a
solid chunk weighing eight Or ten
pounds. The metal rings clear. It is,
no doubt, Il composition of metals. The
denomination of tho counterfeits to be
issued, as shown by the moulds,
ranged from one dime to a half-dollar,
with a quarter Intervening. stIn God
we trust' is plainly to be seen on the
die for half-a-dollar, and on the dime
zone dimc.'' The moultls fit closely
and the impression of the coin is per
fect-as near like Nature (quotine
Cia1cb Plumbcr) as it could be made.
There is 4 cup of olive oil, bucket
partly filled with plaster of Paris mo-
used, and some small wooden blocks
among the paraphernalia of this new
and benevolent enterprise.
1t seems that Mr.. Angeles had ;
partner i'll this business. This partne
went to New Orleans about thre
weeks ago, and returned last Saturda,
was week, on the John Wilson. IL
brought up tho material with which
to start the "mint.'' Tuesday, he an,
