Dangerous CoNnteFfeits.

The followin" which we clip from the
daily Miner Of the 8th, measurably con-
firms the opinion expressed ty the COuR-
IE. two weeks ago:
Look out for counterfeit $50 notes on the
National Banking Association Of New
York. Several OF those bogus bills have
lately come under the observation of Mr..
W. a. Clark, who gives the following points
to facilitate their detection. The face work
of the counterfeits is well executed, offer
ing remarkably close imitation of the Or
iginal, but on the back the vignette engra-
wing is poor In the extreme. On the face
the signatures of the bank officers are moi
in handwriting, but instead have either
been Autographed or put on with stamps.
Altogether, the counterfeit is so well exc
c,,tcd that anybody except an expert or a
money dealer is liable to be taken In by
them. All who are not experts will do
we'll to submit for examination ut one OF
the banks any twenty dollar bill on the
above mentioned bank that may Be odesed

Fruit CuAGuPe iN GsaoSatis.

We we're most acroe~oiy surprised on
Monday last I.,.ssBrigham Reed laying
mo, ovr ~-ntcrial desk slip Of 4 currant
49," literally loaded with ripe. luscious
fruit. Seldom. If ever. have we seen in
any country, such an abundance of cur
rants on a single stem. The slip was only
about IL inches long, and not much larger
in diameter than a good-sized lead pencil,
yet, with the clusters of currants attached,
It weighed over three-quarter Of pound.
Mr.. Reed informs US that he has but
two currant bushes in bearing, yet they
are SO large, thrifty and prolific that this
season they produced about eight quarts
each. This shows that small fruits, at
least, can be successfully raised in Gala
tin county, and should be sufficient en-
enlargement for every one having farm,
or even garden patch, to try and do
something without further delay, in the
way of fruit culture.
