American Baronets.
There are no hereditary titles in this coun
try, though every other man-who is not called
Judge, Governor, .oohinel," or Major,. receives
the brevet title of tc honorable." -Tot,-though
the fact . may not be generally 'known, there
are among, the baronetkof England four who
actually - belong to thiecountry.
The first American baronet - Jai - created
was Sir William Goocfi, the_ Cadet of an old
Suffolk family, in England. He was born in
October,- 1684, during the reign of Charles
IL, and entered the army, then' the refuge of
ybungor sons, at an early ago. lie fought
gallantly during all Queen Anne's wars, at the
close of whieb, by the peace of Utrecht, tn.
1713, he retired and married. Soon after,
however, he was called out by George I. to
assist in putting down the Scottish rebellion
of 1715
forty-three years old, as Lieutenant-Governor
of Virginia; and it is to his credit that ho
was the only governor that George 11. had
against whom no complaint was lodged.
Campbell's History of Virginia states that
he ruled peacexbly and prosperously by.
surrendering, in a great measure, the helm
of government to his Council. In 1740, when
the expedition against Carthagena was about
proceeding, the command of the Virginia
troops about to aid the regulars from Eng
land became vacant by the death of Major
General Slr Addrew Spotswood, and Gover-
nor Gooch placed himself at the head of the
force, one compapy of which waa commanded
by Lawrence,•l,alf brother of George Wash
ington. Gooch was wounded in the attack
on Carthagena. In 1749, after having hold
office for pventy-two years, Governor Gooch
resigned and returned to England, *here ho
continued, Virginia's steady friend
in that province was calltal after him. During
his adminiatratiOn, the population of Virginia
nearly doubled, her settlements had increased
one-third, the taxes - had been reduced, indus
try revlyed, foreign commerce increased, and
general prosperity much augmented. Gooch,
albeit a man of mnclidetermination, was very
oourteons. In tbe.street of Williamsburg,
when talking with a ganileman, a negro tiw-
lated him, and he graciously returned the sa
lute. To his friend, who expressed surprise;
he said : cc Sir, I cannot permit a man of hie
condition to exceed me- in..good manners."
This reply has been' affiliated upon Washing
ton, and also upon the Earl of Chesterfield,
but properly belongs to Gooch.
On the 4th of November, 1746, during hot
reign of George 11, a patent of Baronetcy
was issued, and,: as Sir William Gooch bad no
son, his broth - er Thomas was named Us his
successor. Sir William died in December,
1751,- when, according to the limitation, the
title devolved upon his brother, Dr. Thomas
Gooch, brother-in-law of SherlOck, Bishop
of London, and himself successively Bishop
of Bristol, Norwich, and Ely. Dying in 1754,
he was succeeded by his eldest son. One of
his lineal descendants now holds the title as
seventh baronet, and is Sir Edward Sherlock
Gooch, born in 1842. -The family seat is Be-
naireHall, Suffolk.
On - Deem:ober% 1772, George III: conferred
the hereditary dignity of baronet upon James
Wright, Esq., who had been attorney general,
chlefjastice, and finally, governor of the pro=
since of Georgia.. Tho family came from Suf:
folk, and one of its memb e rs was Sir Robert
Wright, Knight, chief justice of England at
the trial of the'seven bishops, temp. James H.
Macaulay (HistorY of England,:vol. ii, p. 200)
speaksi most unfavorably of this judge. He
says he ce was ignorant to a proverb, yet igifor
ance was not his worst fault. His vices had
ruined him. He had resorted to infamone
ways of raising money, and had on one °eat
film made a, 4*Al ... davit in order to obtain
possession oi, fire hundred potiadd : = Poor,
dissolute, and' shameleis, he 'had becotne one
Of the parasites of Jeffrey's, who promoted
him and insulted him." Again, Macaulay
says: "Wright, who presided, [at the bishops'
trial, Jtine,lBBB,] had been raised to his high
place over the heads of many abler and more

lie was sent ont in 1727, being then
learned men solely on account of bia unecru•
pulons servility." 'Wright was actnallY over
awed on the trial by the unmistakeable public
opinion, and fearing impeachment by the next
Parliament if he favored the crown, looked,
a bystander said, "as if all the peers pre
sent bad halters in their pockets." He charged
the jury feebly, and the bishops wore ac
quitted, which virtually overthrew the domi
nation of King James. Wright was too useful
to the King to be dismissed. That came in
due time, when William of Orange became
ruler. Wright'e son went to America, where
be died chief justice of South. Carolina. His
son, the -first baronet, owed his title to his
tcloyalty" to George 141., and retained
Georgia, as, a royal province, as long as pos
sible.- Returning to England, where he died
in 1786, he received very liberal parliament
ary compensation for the loss of real and per
sonal property during the revolution, and his
office of Governor, valued at £l,OOO a year.
The second baronet died in 1816, without is
sue,- (he was married to Miss Smith, whose
father is said to hive been Governor of South
Carolina,) and the third baronet, who died in
1837, was born in Charleston. The present
Sir John Wright, called tiot South Carolina - "
onlis patent, ie fourth baronet. The family
neat Is Carolaide, Berwickshire, Scotland.
Athird American baronetcy is that of Leigh,
of South Carolina, held by one of that tangly
of whom a proverb says: • •
In Cheshire the Leighs
Aye as plenty as.tiess.
One of these, born in 1710,:was a barrister,
became high-bailiff of Westminster, emigrated
to South Carolina, was made chief justice
there, and died in 1769. His son, Egerton
Leigh, successively attorney general, surveyor
general, and member of council in Sonth'Oa
rolina,
was created a baronet In May, 1773.
A.nother, Egerton Leigh, his son, was the se.'
cond baronet, who died in 1818, and had
married Theodosia, relict of Captain John
Donellan, and slater of Sir Theodosius Edward
Boughton, baronet, for whose murder, by poi
son, Captain Donellan was tried, convicted,
and executed at Warwick, in April, 1781,
upon very scanty evidence. • Mrs. Donellan,
afterwards Lady Leigh, tell in love with Barry
O'Meara, (Napoleon's surgeon during his last
captivity.) .The lady was an enthusiastic ad
mirer of the Emperor, and was won by °lies
ra's book, es Napoleon in Eille, or a Voice
from St. Helena." The present Sir Samuel
Egerton Leigh is third baronet. Family seat,
Broronaoer House, Warwickshire, England. ' '
The last American baronetcy was conferred
so lately as October, 1776, after the Declara
tion of Independence had beensigned. The
Eden family flourished in Durham, England,
some four hundred and fifty years ago. Ro
bert •Eden, M. P. for Durban', was E made ba
ronet in 1672, and his great grandson, Robert
Eden, who was Governor of Maryland, also
received a baronetcy in 1776. This man's
I grandson, Sir Frederick, the third baronet, an
officer of the British army, fell at 'New Or
leans, 24th December, 1814, and was succeed
ed by his brother, Sir William, who, in 1844,
also came into the earlier title, and le thus
sixth baronet of West Auckland, and fourth
baronet of Maryland. The family estate is
Weindlestone, Bishop's Auckland, county of
Durham. The peerages of Henley and Auck
land are held by Edens, of this family.
'Two American-baroneteles are extinct.
Lieut. General--William Pepperell, a native of
Mapsachnsetts, and annually re-elected one of
the Royal Council there from 1727 to his
death, in 1769, was commissioned by the Go
'vernor of New England to invest Louisburg,
which he successfully did in 1745. In ac
knowledfrnsent, he was created baronet in No.
vember, 1746, lint'Aying without male issue,
at the age of sixty-three, the title became ex
tinct. Sir William's ' daughter married Mr.
Sflarhavik, of Boston, Whose'non William,
adqpting tho name of Pepperell, was created
Sir William Pepperell, of Boston, in the
province of Massachusetts, North America,"
in November, 1714. .He had no son by his
wife, (daughter ' of.. the Ron. Isaac Royall,
Massachusetts,) and, dying in op, the title
became extinct. ' '
These; we believe, are the 'only American
baronetcles, remaining :or extinct, ever cre
ated. - There are, hoWever, a great manyfinil-•
lies in the United States nearly related to the
British nobility . No more curious example
c.cinld be adduced than that of three danighters
of Richard Caton, Esq., of 'Maryland, one of
whom married Baron Stafford, the other be
came the wife of Marquis. Wellesley, elder
brother of the Duke of Wellington ; tlie third,
when widow of Sir Felton Bathurst Hervey,
13.4 rt., marrying the seventh Duke of Leeds.
Oddly enough, none of these three peeresses
had a child. At one time they were, consider
ed among the handsomest women IrrEngland.
• • An Afternoon in Alexandria:
(Prow our Special War Vorrespondeat.l
' WaaIp:NOTON, July 28, 1861.
As extensive preparations were being made
to place Alexandria in a position to repel any
attack which might be made upon the city
from, that.quarter, I deemed a brief visit to
that celebrated little town the most 'profitable
way of spending what threatened to be a dull
and languid afternoon.
Alexandria is within a few miles of Wash-'
ington, and occupies tliisame - posiMpn todt;
geographically speaking, that. Red Bank does
to Philadelphia. The means oftravel are very
Virginian, and therefore :very indweritent.
We Passed over.a dusty road, in a very Irene-
rable and nntiquated stage coach, which might
have seen its best days long befole the boy
hood of the present' generation. . The ; weak•
nese of auppoeing that eighteen people: can
ride in a vehicle in-tented for ten, Is not peen-
liar to Philadelphia, for aitet.,the • driver had
packed us in all the positions •in which the
largest number of human beings can be pack
ed in the smallest possible space, he gravAly
assured a corpulent old lady, who was carry
ing a basket of fish, that cc there was lots o'
room, either inside or on top." The old lady
being of a leisurely disposition,•"concluded to
wait for the next omnibus, and we of the coach
passed her a silent and unanimous vote of
A county
thanks.
There was a great deal of bustle at the Al
exandria landing. The inevitable orderly . ser
geant was present, with his sash , and sword,
enforcing order,
,among the newsboys, team
sters, negroes, and disorderly passengers.
-There was a sprinkling of . the Zouaves; with .
their picturesque costumeiri Three or four
were huddled up oti the dock, sleeping off the
effects of many a deep potation, while another
.was leaning over the windowrsill of -the tc la-
dies' saloon," earnestly recounting his hair
breadth escapes to a middle-sized lady in
spectacles, who alternately busied herself by
quelling the cries of a noisy infant, and weep
ing over the details of the affecting narrative.
This "ladies' saloon," by the way, IS a novel
institution, It is a small *Cobden building, in
many:parts guiltless of paint, and' resembling
very much a Western way, station' on some of
the Illinois railroads. There 'was but little
business done at the landing except of a mili
tary character, and the passengers who awaited
the arrival of the boat were principally offs--
tiers, soldiers, and endow civiliabs,'who . went
to the town as on a pilgrimages ,
The ride down the river was short and plea
sant, for few breezes could be .mote refresh
ing thart,that which,blows.firom the Potomac.over the hills of. the old<Donabfbn. - , This, ro-
gion of Virginia is. extremely -romantic, and
in some , partal could trims a resemblance to
our Schuylkill above the 'Wissahickon, al
though the breadth of thelflier, and the - green
and unsightly,flat which bp:;*ilens off from the
Long Bridge, and extendalown the Potomac,
takes away that peculiait charm which sur
rounds our Plills.delphist l imenery. On the
Maryland side of therivesthere are more evi
dences of improvement thins •we are accus
tomed to see in districts controlled- by capital
and tilled by - compulsOry labor. Small farms
are occasionally visible and many of them are
in an advanced state of C.ultiiiition. The houses
neat and tastefully built, and yet not without
that fetidness for ostentation which seems to
be characteristic - et the inhabitants of -West
ern Maryland and Virginia..
Alexandria is a large, well-built, and thrifty
town, and, in ordinary times, has exhibited
many evidences of prosperity and enterprise.
4IL. spell seems to have come dyer it, and under
the influences of this war le-has Wien into a
state of social and mf i tleS. A little
negro. p, landing
where we arriirid.;',. d 'One- WOlitildters
-were swimming tinder the wharf-piles and dis
porting in the waters of the river. An officer
in undress was examining a squad of soldiers
and taking notes. while against a three storied
dark stained, brick building a sentinel was
leaning, with his gun folded in a earelessly
affectionate manner, evidently counting the
weary minutes which would relieve him from
duty. The dark-stained building had once
been a forwarding and commission house, bat
-now its doors were locked, its windows bolted,
and the cobwebs were enveloping the broken
frames which appeared in' the upper story.
The owner was a secessionist and had gone to
the wars, while over his abandoned property
stood, as a means of' protection, a' soldier of
the United States.
King street is the thoroughfare of Alexan
dria and it was at its wharf the lamented Ells
worth landed on the morning of its occupation.
It extends up a hill which is not quite as steep
as Market street on the Delaware, and for four
or five squares both sides of the streets are
lined with stores: There was a general feel-
lag of listlessness and depression, and a long
Yankee, from Maine, who wore a soldier's
uniform, made:a 'very quaint remark, to the
effect that he thought Alexandria could be
4 g bought at a -reuonable redtiction, in order
to close up business." One-hall of the stores
were closed, and those which were open, as a
general thing, . were deserted. Clerks and
storekeepers" sat demurely at the door, or
lounged ovr the counters. An occasional
'resident might be seen standing at the'door,
and looked rather scowlingly at the soldiers
as they passed along. Stray sentinels were
patrolling from corner to corner, and occa
sional clusters '•
-of soldiers were gathered in
the streets, discussing the feats of the late
battle, or rehearsing:the sad fate of a gallant
comrade. Many had returned from a night or
two of dissipation in the city, and wore either
reeling along the sidewalk, or stupidly sleeping
on the steps and the pavements. -
- The Marshall House Is. the patriotic shrine
of Alexandria, and to the eye of every Union
visitor it . is consecrated by the blood of the
lamented:"Elliworth. It is, situated on King
-street, tboutn quarter of a mile from the land
ing,
,ia now occupied by a regiment of
tri:Hapiii third-claas hotel in Virginia,
and wonldhe ranked , WV a; filth-class hotel in
Pennsyliania. The entrance on 'Xing street
,is through' a broad open • door, whiCh is sup
"ported by two wide, stumpy drab-colored pil
lars:of—mortar and brick. - The appearance of
the hotel is one ot ruin. The floors were nn
scrubbed, soldiers were asleep on the bar, and
I,cod'friends ot the ilnion were gossipping in
the very rooms and lounging in the very chairs
where many a valiant Virginian had in times not
long since gone inveighed against the tyrannies
'of Lincoln, and mourned over the, insults
which were being inflicted without impunity
upon the cc sacred soil." There were traces
of relic-hunters in broken balustrades and
pieces of wood which had been chopped from
the steps. The rooms aro turned into a bar
racks. The scene of -Ellsworth's asiissaina;
tion is on the third-story floor on the stairs,
leading immediately to the traadoor from
which he descended on hauling dow% the Seces,
Mon flag. The Stair-case on which he fell has
been literally hacked away by those anxious
to obtain mementoes of the sad tragedy.
The room from which Jackson emerged
when he confronted Ellsworth has. also
been stripped- of nearly, everything in the
shape or a portable curiosity. I was offered
quite a piece of wood by one of the soldiers,
who assured me that it was a part of the iden
tical staircase, and that be kept an assortment
ot blocks on hand for ,the accommodation of
carious visitors. Be said that there had been
thousands to visit the scene, and that nearly
all had borne away some piece of the building
as a relic. I looked at his wood dubiously,
and certainly thought that-most-of the stories.
about its genuineness were apocryphal. • The:
least effort at a mathematical calculation would
have convinced•any one that enough blocks of
wood must have been carried away, as ,4 porr
tions of the original staircase," not only to
build the stairs but to erect another hotel 'as
large as the one made notorious by Ellsworth's
murder.
Beyond Alexandria are tho encampments of
a number of regiments. In a slope immedi
ately. on the outskirts of the city, the Mozart
Regiment'of New York is stationed. The en
campment is 'an advantageous one, for it is
skirted by a running stream of better water
than is generally found in Eastern Virginia.
The members of this regiment wore firing by
company at the time of my visit, and i under
stand that they spare.= pains to become pro
• flcient in the duties of the soldier. Immedi
ately above the encampment there Is a hill
rising abruptly, densely wooded, through
which is laid out a broad and well- constructed"
rosCwhich leads to Arlington Heights. "A
."14§0 . •. 4 1 . 10 . , ; New " York regiment ITere
camped on the side of the hill, as well as a
number of others whose names I was not cu
rious enough to inquire. • The soldiers were
busily engaged in felling trees and strengthen
ing the entrenchments which'had before been
laid out: Fort Ellsworth was oil a bill beyond,
and within a gunshot distance of the eminence
commanding Alexandria. I had barely time
to look at it, as the hours wore growing late
into the afternoon, and it was important theta
should return to the boat: It was - solidly
built, howeVer, of broad earth-works and sur
sounded by deep and deceptive ditches. It
was filled with all the men necessary to man
it, and bristled with cannon of the largest
calibre. I was assured that it was in a condi
tion to defy a force larger than any which the
rebels can by any possibility bring to bear
upon it.
The soldiers are confident and contented.
They labor on the fortifications with the great
est zeal, and say no word of dissatisfaction at
'the large amount of arduous though necessary
labor, imposed upon them. They avow them
•ftelves , ready to meet Beanregard, 'arid think
it is only a matter of time,. before they wipe
away the memory of Manassas and obtain a
splendid victory. -As I was conversing with
two or three of the Maine volunteers, a rather
elderly gentleman came riding.down the Ar-.
lington road, and atter a question relative to
his journey, joined in the conversation. He
spoke .of the danger which threatened the
capital; and the fears entertained by the peo

soldiers whether be really thought Beanregard

Bridge without baving:a pass , from old Scott

ated a little merriment among the party, and
the old gentleman continued his journey.
The view from the hill above Alexandria is
one of indescribable beauty: It commands
the country for miles around—the dreamy,
quiet; rebellious little town below the fortifi•
cations covered with cannon—the rows of
Lentil on' the flelds;the broad river, and the
distant city of Washington, with the capitol
and the monument plainly visible. And the
distant city never looked more magnificent,

WABILINGTON, July 26, 1861.
. Fanlt-finding is a very easy business ; one in
Which a person may engage without an apprentice
ship, and, if !ladens not prove expert enough to
pursue the trade without doing Wary or injustice
to others, I know of no raw to punish the malprac
tice. Withicash limited reeoriroes rtquired in the.
way of capital, it is perhaps not wonderful that we
find an over stook of professors of the art of fault
finding, foiit is an art—the art of the oerjurer
which Proepero laid down with such dignity,
making substantialities out of airy nothings, embo
dying immateriality—
As when the wetting sun has given
Ten thousand shapes to summer's even.
•In the bustling erste around the administrative
chair of our nation and in its enlarging waves,.
which weaken as they leave the cantle, rolling
Sluggishly towards our large Northern cities; if
fault-finding were the aubjeet of daily reports as
to, its " bulting.or bearing," like fancy stocks, it
would be difficult to note the rapid changes of sen
timent, and if truth were to go into the market to
piok up a few securities. U would be impossible to
allow margin enough for any speculative move
.meat. Your fault finder is so fiords, too; he is
like the 'comic dancer, who presents hie front half
to yeti, bespangled and beaatined, but with a rapid
twirl turns his back half to your gaze ' and shows
you the inevitable woolly-headed negroin the wood
pile. Oh, how, jubilant were all of the tribe, last
Monday, when it wee announced that - a glorious
victory had been won at Manassas! Who of the
• fiult-finders then dared' to mar the general key
: note of rejoicing with a single discordant doubt?
i The "bulls" were in glee that day, and "bears"

the news of the reverse was promulgated ; or who
neglected to praise all the admirable arrangements
which had attended the " onward march of the
grand army of the Union ?" Are the hopes and
destinies of our country to be at the mercy of these
aspriCiaus weatheroocke, whciare affiioted with chro
nic fault-finding, and frequent spells of it at that?
We niust learn to estimate croaking at its true de
preciation The people have theroomrgen tense to
understand that the warpath does not lead along
a rose strewn road, and they know that reverses
must happen to the beet of generals, and that the
issue of a battle is alwaye subject to chanties which
may convert a victory into a defeat. Let us then
arrest alt this senseless gabble about inefficiency,
and teach ourselves the duty of reposing all confi
dence in those who have always shown themselves
worthy of unboaaded confidence. Our army has
not been driven back; nine tenths of its force fell
book in order and leisurely to the positions 000n
pied by them before the advance. We are, .on
this twenty-sixth of July, no worse off than we
were on the sixteenth, with the deplorable excep
tion of the loss of life, so greatly exaggerated.
Washington city is as quiet as it wail before; Con
gress datiberatee uninterruptedly, and all the de
partments move with their everyday clock-work.
Large reinforcements to replace the three-monthe
volunteers are arriving in numbers far exceeding
those - who have gone or are going home to be mus
tered ant of servloe. Let the fault,finders and the
mercers be put under the ban of public' opinion;
let the Administration Jake all requisite time to
mature its plans, and let us calmly and reliantly
await the issue
Before we blame the troops for being thrown into
confusion,
let us reflect a little upon the public
panto and stampede which seemed to seize the whole
North and West two day. since. Let us make up
our minds, also, that there is no holiday work before
our army. Gen Johnson, the best field officer in
the Confederate service, has superseded the Toutant
de Beane/41*rd, and having been schooled in strate
gy, be will prove an unsleeping opponent. Happily,
our young sod gallant McClellan has been selected
to oppose him, and he comes with the prestige of
his victories in Western Virginia, and brings with
him popular confidence and enthusiasm to the
fullest extent. His eagle eye will eoon compre
hend the whole'situation, and we must let him re
main here in his eyrie, just as long as he thinks fit,
to make all secure before he takes his onward
swoop to conquer. With Scott to plan, McClellan
to eremite, and thousands of patriotic hearts beat
in ardently to retrieve the Magneto of Susiday,
we have the most glorious harbingers of suiteesst.

Your - oOrreePondent (3. IC Y.) has mentioned
some; of ' the causes of our 'seem , defeat, all of
which, no doubt, operated against' us; but there
is one, end'perhaps a prominent one too, which has
not beep mentioned. refer to the fact that the bat
tle was commenced on Sabbath morning. The sol
diers' were tired and' hungry, find they' certainly
should have' had 'relit and -nourishment,- even - if it
bad been any other day of theweek vbUt r ,stl.tt
VMS Sabba th , this. was a double reason Why they
should hive remained quiet: - Now, to say nothing
about the light or wrong of beginning a battle on
Sunday, does not all history teach that it would
be expedient to . obserrifthe Sabbath, if 'at all poe
Bible; as • dafel rcat V Look- at-the moves that
have' already-Amen made • upon the Lord's day,
during the present campaign, and, mark the sue
oess that'has attended' them. ' The advance upon
Alexandria' was made - - upon the Sabbath, -and
although something was gamed,-yet It resulted in
the loss of , a noble Ellsworth. So the same day
was chosen to - make - the move upon 'Old Bethel,
and the aotuarloss that.we smetained. there is yet
veiled in mystery: So you. may refer- to all lais
tory, and I 'do not remember 'a single instarme in
which the attacking party was vlotorians, if the
assault was made upon the Sabbath. Now take
it just ea a matter of , expediency, and would we.
not, be more apt to seenre, our own success by ob
serving the - Sabbath its' the way in which the Lord
has commanded it,to be observed, as a day of rest?
I wish that the minds of our commanding officers,
and all ourleading men, coold be directed to this
one simple fact; that all history shows that God
has never blessed the efforts of him who, in all
his plaris,, disregards his holy day.. ,

.I(ittanning is in Armstrong county, of this State,
and situated f.rtyfive miles north of Pittsburg,
and on the north aide of the Allegheny river. This
place has a population of about two thousand.
Like all other localities, it.is at present :very dull

The . Allegheny valley, through which courses

and extends northward over one hundred miler:
Steamboats can and de ,run up to and above this
point for a very Considerable distance. At pre.
sent, however, the water is unusually low, the
depth of which in the Channel is not more than
five or six feet.
This place is accessible from Pittsburg over
,the
Allegheny Valleyßillroad. Two trains came and
go 'daily. They, however, make very stow time
indeed. The spool is, scarcely fifteen mile 3 per
hair. The; reason fer"tbls is, that there are so
manywaystatiens to' stop at. .1 would soaroely

Having had occasion lately to handle a °onside
table amount of. Pennsylvania. " small - bills," i
noticed quite a' number of the issues of different
banks. not only with the dates and numbers, but
also with the signatures of the respective preri
dente and cashiers, engraved and printed on The
notes. Upon inquiry, learn this practice of .en
graving eignaturea to bank bills is highly reaom•
isiendett r hy the engravers, and becomiog.popular
among a" elate of bank officers who dealre a good
deed of lidaire time during the warm weather..
The. propriety of this pregame I think very.qnea
tionable, as, should the engravers, or any one ease
Ishii should:surreptitiously obtain possession of the
phites, take it lath their beads .to duplicate the
numbers, bow amid the bank avoid redeeming
those duplicates? having, to my mind, ne method
of determining.the identity of their own issue, the
one, signature and all, being a iwieet
of the other.
Signatures have hitherto.bsen one of the princi
pal criteria of genuineness in bank notes, and the
engreved name et an ofiloer was reffielent to give
them the stamp of condemnation. This should be
the Case still, whether den° honestly,' for the so
