A Remarkable Counterfeit Note.

The secret service has come into pos-
session of the most remarkable counter
felt that has ever been discovered. 1t 10
a bogus $50 United States legal teuder
note, and is calculated to deceive even a
person accustomed TO handling notes OF
that denomination. What makes 1t 30
remarkable Is that the work on the note
is executed with pen and ink. All tho
intricate figures and curves, all the
heads, the seal, the tine engraving work,
and even the fibre in the paper are almost
perfect, counterieited by pen and ink.
The signature of John Allison, formerly
register Of the treasury, is perfect. The
whole bill, back and face, Is a wonderful
piece Of pen work The bill was detected
at the sub.treasury at New Orleans.
Unless the Individual who executed the
counterfeit Is as rapid as he Is a wons
deriul worker II would take at least a
month TO finish piece Of work Ike this

AT NIGHTFALL.

Coming along by the meadows,
Just after the sun went down,
Watching the gathering shadows,
Creep over the hillsides brown
Coming along In the cleaning,
With never star in the sky,
My thoughts went a-roaming, a-roaming,
Through days that are long gone by
Days when Desire said: Tomorrow,
Tomorrow, heart, we'll be gay l"--
Days ere the heart heard the sorrow
Which echoes through Yesterday.
Life was goblet Furnished
That with love for wine was filed;
The cup is bruised and furnished,
And the precious wine Is spilled.
But to the traveller weary,
Just coming In sight Of home,
What does 1t matter how dreary,
The way whereby he has Gomez
Coming along by the meadows,
And watching he fading day.
Dusl ier than Nights dusky shadows,
Fell shadows Of Yesterday.
In the northern sunset's glimmer
The Great Bear open ed his eyes;
Low in the east a simmer
Showed where the full moon would rise.
Lights In a window were cleaning,
And none who stood at the gate
said: " Why do you stand there dreaming
And why are you there 30 late ~
Yesterday shaaow and sorrow
That moment all vanished away;
dere were To-Day and o-Morrow-
What matter for Yesterday.

On the arrival of the Ieinforcemepts,
the British army in Zululand will be consid.

at Waterloo or the Alma. At the memora ole
battle which ended in the overthrow OF Ma

Crimea the British forces consisted of 26,-
