I nmt urn j.aa"ni r.leresting Facts fcr Business Men. 1 S. H. Picker, noted as a skillful penman, vines to the New Yoik Mail concerning signature expeits," I La occasion being the i:i6 "Taylor will case," which turned in a i rt-nt meas-ute on the gecuinenons of the tes t titer's Eignaturo : More than twenty years ago, in Cincinnati, I copied the Declaration of Independence, ; pper.dit.g fuc similes of the eignere' narr.ei. Mr. Thomas Stevens, at the name time editor f the Cincinnati Atlas, took occasion, In a !!f arant way, to doubt my assertion that I I ad copied the signatures with a pen. To convince him, I asked him to write bis name i it a thect of paper, which he did. I itnuie ri&tfcly wrote ten copies of his signature t.bove and below the original, and handed I 'm the paper to select his own. After a careful examination he telected one as his cwn. He was wrong. Ho tried again and jgain, with the name result, and finally, by mere guess work, he hit od the right one. And it is a rcmaikable fact that after he had it-ally discovered his own L could Bee the most astounding absurdities in all the others. Some Fix years ago, I was speaking with r. well-known publisher of this city, who sat at his det-k sip-dug some checks that the boik-kceper had prepared for him. The tigaature was of the firm, and was a peculiar i tie, as he wrote it. I casually remarked iliat it was an elegant signature for a forger. lie promptly ropondtd that there was no Ifi-ger thai could sign that came so as to de ceive him. O. yea. there i?," eald I. "Where Is he?" He is standing at your elbow." Do you mean to say," retorted hp, "that you can imitate that signature so that I cau not delect the forgery ?" I mean to say," said I, "that I thiuk I can do it. and am willing to try it." "If you will write that signature." he r plitd, "so that I cannot delect U froiu my i wn, I will " 'There, there, don't be rash ; I should diblike to take advantago of your present incitement. If you will just writo the sig nature at the top of that letter ehoet, we'il tee what a little impudence c.-.u do." He did as rtijuesied. I took the shoot and want to the book keepei's desk. Hero I ex changed it for aiiotlter of the same kind, and in the ean.e raiativo positiou I. imitated the t-iguuttire in a very free, careless way, not attempt in;: a rcrvile copy, but preserving the characteristic strokes. I then very care fully wtote underneath it three faithful sig nature, all my own. These I took to the proprietor, and told him to select his owu signatute. Willi surprising little effort he pointed tut the first signature, and at once began to criticue with bov6rity uiy base im itations. "Well." said I, "I will confess they aro not as well dune as I expected to do them, or as I couid do them if my nerves were steady. Hut, really." said 1, "don't you think if one of thoeo "denatures were placed at the bottom of your ordinary checks your bank would h-nor the check ?" "Weil, no," said he, "I don't think It would." "I suppose," said I, "there is no doubt about the top signature that would bring the cash ?' "Oh, yes, I should like to see our bank refuso that r-ignature for an ordinary sum." 1 then went to tLe bock-keeper's desk and produced the original signature. "How about this?'" said I. He looked at the signature then at my "base imitations" then at the crowd of in terested spectators who had quiotly gathored around, aud who were beginning to take iu the richness of the j-ke, and finally he burst out into an txpression which was a mixture of astonishmont,' chagrin, merriment, vexa tion and perplexity, and holding" out his hand with unconditional surrender written all over his face, he exclaimed. Sold!" That was tho ouly word in the American language that could adequately express the situation. But the sell was a very easy one, and re quired no skill at all. The fact is. that when the original signature was compared with the forgeries, the diacrepencics were so pal pable that "a wayfaring man, though a fool." need not be taken in, and yet, if my frioud had not been what he was and is and if I had been as most forgets, I could havo won a very nice sum, had I offered to stake it on the issue. Finally, to convince the deacon that he was not th& only fool in the firm, I called up ue of the other partners, and, showing him the three faUe signatures, asked him to decide which was the genuiue. With a great show i f ready discernment, he selected the top one, a wd began at once to point out the weak points of the others, limply by comparing them with what ho considered the genuiue. "Yes," he said, "they are pretty fair imita tions, but don't you see the length of this g and tho tutn of this n? Now look at the original and see where this capital J swoops around. There is an attempt at it in the imitations, but it is a very weak one." "Then you couldn't be imposed upon by one of these lower signatures?" .said I. "No, not I. They bear forgery upon their very face." "Well, how about the first one? No mis takes about this? You would readily cash a check with that signature?" "Oh, yes, that is all right. Anybody who ever faw the deacon's sign manual could tell at a glance." So tho deacon divided up hia chagrin with the junior partner, and felt better or worse, I forget which. The fact is, no man la safe In swearing to his siguature not even Horace Greeley to his cm for no man writes twice alike, al though ho may preserve tho characteristics. And 1 would give very little for tho testi mony of ''exports," unless backed by pretty trong collateral evidence. It would not bo difficult, ordinarily, to identify a body of writing, such as a page, or even a dozen lines, but to dacide as t the geuuiuess tf a single word or signature Is more than 1 would like to do If either life or happiness d pcndod upon it. A KACniSB has recently boon prfeet4 in London, with which a writer, using a pea 5n the usual mauoer, can at tha same time, roduce a duplicate bo small as to be invisi ble to the naked eye, yet so distinct that a microscope will reveal every line and dot. A most useful application of the apparatus will be for the prevention of forgery, as pri vate marks can be made, on notes and secu rities, legible uuder microscopic power, but which no imitator could see or even suspect the presence of. The investor, a Mr. Peters, states that the entire contents of the Bible can, with the help of this machine, be writ ten twenty two times in the space of a square inch. Ast one may tainish the reputation of aa Individual, however pure aud chaste, by ut. taring a suspicion which his ensmies will be lievo and his friends hear of. A puff of idle wind can t.tko up a million of the seeds of the thistle, ami do a work of mischief which the husbandman must labor long and hard to undo tho floating particles being too light to be stopped. Just so it is with an inconsiderate word thoughtlessly pokn to the dttiimcut cf your ue'ghboi's character. 1871. SPRING. 1871.

Ift-llJ The following little story, with ita moral, though Writteu for the Macon (Georgia) Tele graph, is quite too good to be enjoyed by the South alone: . I knew a man, he lired in Jones Which Jores is a county of led hillj and stones; And he lired pietty much by getting of loans, And bis mules were nothing but f kin and bones. And his hogs were flat as his corn bread pones And he had 'bout a thousand acres ol land. This man and his name was also Jones Be swore that he'd leave them old red hills and stones. For he couldn't make nothing but yellowish cotton. And little of that, for hia fences were rotten, And bat little cotton he bad was bouhten. And he couldn't get a living from the land. And the longer be swore the madder he got, ADd he rose and he walked to the stable lot. And he hallooed to Tom to come there and hitch. For to emigrate somewhere whre tha land was rich. And to quit raising cock bnrs, thistles1, ahd eich. And wasting their time on barren laud. So him and Tom they hitched up their mules, j Protesting that folks wre ro:ghty big tools That 'ud s'ay in Georgia their lifetime out. Jest scratching a living, when all of them mought Get places in Texas where cotton would sprout liy the time you could plaut it in tho laud. And he drove by a house where a man named BrowB Was living, not far from the edge of the town, Aud he bantered Brown to buy his place, And said that seeing that sheriffs were hard to face, Two dollars an acre would gat the land. They closed at a dollar and fifty cents. And Jones he bought him a wagon nnd tents. And loaded his corn, and his women, aud truck, Aud moved to Texs. which it took His entire piltf, with the best of luck, To get there and get him a little land. But Brown nioted out on the old Jones farm And he rolled up hid breeches and bared his arm. And he picked all the rocks from off the ground, And he rooted it up ami ploughed it down, Aud towed his corn atid wheat hi the land. Five yeais glid by, and Brown, ote dr.y, (Who get so fat that he wouldn't wtigu,) V.'as u sitting down, sorter lazily. To the bulliest diLtier you ever see, When cue ul his children jumped up on his kcee And to. vg, "Van's Jones, which jou bought bis laud." And there was Jones standing out at the fpnee, And he hadu't no wisgon, nor iculea, nor loots, For he bad leit Texua afoot nud come To Georgia to ee if Le couldn't get some Employment, aud he was looking as hutcblo As it he had never owned any land. But Brcwn he naked him in, utul he tot 11 i m dowu to his victuals smoking hot, And w hen he had filled himself .ud the floor, Brown looked at him sharp and rove and swore That hether uitu'i l&nd was rich or poor, There wag more in tLe man than there was in the land." A long noskd, thin shanked old maid appeared at the door of a farmer's bouse in Iowa the other day, acd wanted the farmer's wife to fcubscribe to pome wo men's newspaper and sign n petition for woman sufFrnge. The wife called out : "Charles, Tom, Kichard, Lucy, Jane! ' and was soon surrounded by n crowd of rosy cheeked children. She then turned to her visitor and said : "Have you any of these ?" "No," was the Eharp reply. "Then," replied the buxom wife, "go get a few, and afterwards oomo to me about women's rights, if you feel like it."
