A Remarkable Bank Note.

Not long ago well-known collector
of curiosities in Paris, who had devoted
considerable sums of money to the
gathering together of bank notes OF all
countries and all values, became the
possessor of Bank Of England g.
pound note to which an unusually
strange story was attached. This note
was paid into Liverpool merchants
office in the ordinary way of business
sixty -one years ago, and the cashier,
while holding it up to the light to test
its genuineness, noticed some faint red
marks which, on closer examination,
proved to be semi-etfaced words
scrawled in blood between the printedi
lines and upon the blank margin of the
note. Eventually the following sem
tsnce was made out: If this note
should fall into the hands Of John
Dean, of Long hill, near Carlisle, he
will learn hereby that his brother is
languishing prisoner in Algiers." Mr..
Dean was promptly communicated with
10y the holder of the note. and he APP
pealed to the government of the day
for assistance in his endeavor to obtain
his brothers release. The prisoner,
who, rs it subsequently appeared, had
traced the above sentence upon the note
with splinter of wood dipped in his
blood, had been n slave to the Dey OF
Algiers for eleven years, when his
strange missive first attracted attention
in Liverpool counting house. His
family and friends had long believed
him dead. Eventually his brother,
with the aid of the British authorities
in the Mediterranean, succeeded in
ransoming him from the Dey, and
brought him home to England, where,
however, he did not long survive his
release, his constitution having been
irreparably injured by exposure, priva'
tons, and forced labor in the Dey's
galleys.

Correspondence of THE CLARION.
OFFICE OF COTTON PLANT,
AUSTIN, TUNICA COUNTY,
Miss, September, 7th, 1880.
EDITORS CLARIoN-Gen. Chalmers is
here. He spoke to full Courthouse yes
terday in his best style. His speech was
full of vim, energy and eloquence. He re-
ceived an ovation and is making friends.
Hon. Casey Young, of Tennessee, also
spoke logically, clearly, grandly-the embod-
iment of dignity and force. We are de-
lighted with him. Hancock and English
and Chalmers are all right in Tunica.
Court is in session. The Grand Jury is
sitting. Very truly,
John l. BATES.
