All that we have done is to be counted aa nothing—worse than nothing. It is to be construed against us and distorted into evidence of disloyalty. " e a ^e to be allowed to do nothing voluntarily, but in all things are to act under constraint and compulsion, The President said—“We must trust the south.” The Radicals say—“The South cannot be trusted." It must be suspected, discredited, humiliated, disgraced and punished to the last extremity of rigor. This may not be brave, may not be magnanimous, but we are powerless, and may aa well be silent.

There are now In circulation very dangerous coun terfeit $50 compound interest uoler i-0 national bunk notes, and $fo greenbacks. As these are of recent issue the following description may be inter esting : “One of the moat dangerous counterfeits of the national currency that has yet been issued is tlie $50 compound interest note. It. is a fac simile of tlie genuine note. The general appearance—like the $100 of the same issue—is calculated to deceive tlie best judges. All that have come umler our observa- tio i tnus far bear data July 15, l-W, and letter C.— [The date and letter, however, may easily lie altered.] •• The female figure on the left end is rather coarse ly executed, and the visage of the male portrait on the right end is not so well done—having much the appearance of a mulatto face. Tlie lettering is al most raultless, but the shading is much heavier ami darker than the genuine note. The counterfeit is aliout oue-slxteenth of au inch narrower than the good note and a fracti u shorter. “Counterfeit twenties of the national currency are being extensively circulated throughout the Western States. All that we have yet beard of bat e been on the First National Bank of Indianapolis; but the plate may be easily altered to represent the same denomina tion of any other national bank. "There are some three or four different plates of counterfeit $20 legal tender notes in circulation. Iu many cases the defective engraving and baa general appearance of the fraudulent note will enable its de tection. The discrepancies noted in the following en graved points will be found useful in many cases in determining the genuine from the bad bills, though it does not hold gotsi in all cases. The point to which we allude is the letter H in the word THE, in the in scription in lower center.” The same “extra” contains the following: “Naw Yohe, Jan. 22.—A new counterfeit $100 na tional currency note, well executed, lias made its ap pearance." “WiSHraoTos, Jan. 2 *.—Several well executed coun terfeit coupons of the seven-thirty Treasury notes were canceled at the Treasury to-day. The coun terfeit is a very close imitation of the genuine cou pon.” I Si UE.VEHAL. A revivalist in Binghamton, N.

There was a debt of nearly $350,000 on it. —The Galveston News is glad the negroes are petitioning Congress for their rights, and it hopes that each particular negro in the South, man, woman and child, will petition that body lor something. They all need something, and should appeal to Congress for it, and keep that body out of mischief by confining it to the reception of their petitions. —A man and woman named Brandon have lately been charged before the Tribunal of Correctional Po lice in Pai ls with annoying a neighbor named Faucon- net, by training a parrot to repeat Ihe words, “Fan- connet is a thief, a miser, a pig,” Ac.

Railroad Cars, Church Pews, Arm Chairs, for Promenade and House Dress, as the Skirt can be folded when in use to occupy a small K lace as easily and conveniently as a Silk or Muslin iress.
