The Troy Times says that another swindle,
in which rural residents are made the vic
tins, Is for agents for the sale of phosphate
purported TO be manufactured al Troy to
make a contract for the sale of the article
with farmer, thereby getting his name. A
quantity of the phosphate is purchased of d
regular agent at some adjacent town and de-
livered, and receipt taken. The contract
turns out to be note and the receipt is held
to verify the genriineness Of the note. The
time will doubtless come when farmers will
make their purchases of people they know
are regular dealers, and sign no papers for
strangers. Until they exercise such care in
their business transactions they must expect
to be swindled

lighter in weight than the genuine ones,
The Philadelphia Bulletin says there are
counterfeit national bank notes in existence
upon no less than 70 different banks. Those
of comparatively recent appearance are the
counterfeit fives of the Fort Stanwix national
bank of Rome, n. Y, and the National
bank of Pawling, n. Y, and fifties on
the National bank of Commerce of New
York. The general list includes counterfeits
on the Manufacturers bank of Amsterdam,
the Albany city of Albany, the Mutual OF
Troy and the Saratoga bank at Waterford.
The Balletia says:
The notes of national banks afford special
opportunities TO the counterfeiter by reason
of the facility with which counterferfeits can
| be changed from one bank TO another, the
notes of each denomination being printed
from plates precisely the same in all respects,
except the title Of the bank and the sigma
lures of the officers A common device OF
the counterfeiters is to prepare a plate in
blank, emitting the title and location of the
bank and the signatures of its officers, from
which great number of impressions are
struck. 4 second plate, usually of copper,
is then prepared, bearing the title of some
bank and fac SMILES Of the signatures OF lis
officers by the use of which the notes print
ed in blank are completed. As soon as the
counterfeit is detected and public attention
called 10 it, a second plate is prepared bear
ing the title and officers signatures of some
other bank, by means Of which another lot
of bank notes is completed. This process.

and bank notes are captured.
