GIFTED EXPERT.

One Of the most skilful experts in Ame-
rica is j. y. Tandy, coin examiner ut the
treasury, TO whom | am indebted for much
saIuaUfc turvs y@-.-%@-~+
remarkable gift for discerning the slightest
fraud 10 specie, aud yet he can hardly tell
how il is done. Ii couuterfeit piece be
concealed in heap of money he will detect
il blindfolded. All that is required is to
run bis Gugers through tbe msss, and in u
few moments every one il trsted. This Is
the result Of that remarkable power Of
touch which is orly perfected by long prac.
tice Such man is of immense value IN
place like the treasury. Coin in this in-
stitution is handled IN large sums, and il is
wheeled on trucks like other inerchandise ,
but in weighing bag the loss Of single
piece would be noticed. The treasury is
Iloorei with marble tile. but these would
roon be destroyed by the heavy trucks that
roll through the specie department. For
this reason the strongest wooden fosr is
u.ed. being made df maple strips set in
edgewise and fastened in the most secure
manner. Even .ueh bottom is none too
solid for the incossaut triturs,ivn Of iron
wheels aud heavy burdens.
