Five Dollar Bill of tbe dank of the United Statej. ALL thai have appeared h«*vß the letter F. for their Alphabetical Mark. The Texture ot the Paper is thicker and whiter and it takes tfie ink more freely than the genuiile paper. The O. in ine word Company is fmalter than theM. and othei ittters of that word, so that a line extended from the top of the O, to touch the top of the-M. would extend" con (ideiabiy above the< of the whole word. In tlie word United the letters are narrow eraud closer together than the left of the bill The i and J in the word promise are not parallel, t'K f inclining much more tor wan* t»j«n the i. The engraving is badly executed,the ftiokts of all the Letters are itronger and the devi- e in the margin particularly is much coaikr and appears darker than io the true biiis.

The fine ruled hues through the wc t\ y in the body of the biL, are in nuuibei th.r tsen in the genuine l>;lis, and but twelve in the counterfeits. The woi d Qompa/iy is much like the fame word in the Five Dollar Bills as defer ibed a - bove, the o being ieis than the and ©tueis following. There is no stroke to the t in the word North whereas in the genuine bills the ltroke is we' defined. defined. The letters cnt in the word Twenty > to the left hawd at the bottom, do not come down to the line, but are so cut as to an irregular appearance to the word, the Tw and the go ing below The has the appear ance of with lamp-blacic 'ami oil, and differs Irom the other inks used in printing the bills and the cashier's signature.

Hqujt of Rcprefentatrvee 1 _ ,• M ""- Gilcs ' s reply to Mr. W. Smith's ob ( lervations on the palling of the naval , armament bill. ( Continued.) Mr. Giles observed that it had Jjecn said and repeated in the committdßßk t. i proposed measure, was war. lajoS nied that the measure in ttfelfvns w* or that it furnifhed a jufl oaufe of war. He believed, however, that it was problema tical whether it would eventuate in peace or war; indeed, he remarked, that the crisis of affairs is already such i that whe ther the measure be adopted or not, he viewed war as a probable event, peace as. a poflible event ; but the point he con tended for was, that if the towards the United States be fulficient to juftify reprisal, the exercise of the right dpes not furnifh a just cause of war. The exercise of a right by one nation, can ncv ver involve the absurd consequence, of giving another nation the right to exercise a iwrong. He said that gentlemen on one fide of this ; question seemed to ast upon an ima ginary, instead of the real state of things, he was not therefore aftonilhed at hearing the committee cautioned against the viola, tion of neutrality. He did not conceive that the present state of things between the Unjted States and Great Britain would juftifv the use of the term Neutrality. Neutrality is a term used ta fignify the relation, in which two nations stand towards each other Neutrality, therefore requires two parties; either party may destroy the relation of things between the parties. It therefore appeared absurd to him to fay that Great Britain was in a state of depredation and war towards the United States—and the United States in a state of neutrality to wards Great Britain, It has been said that the United States have not abandon ed their neutrality—this is true—but it is no evidence that neutrality exists. Great Britain has abandoned it for them. He said however, that this was disregard ing the substance and entering into a mere cavil about names. It was not material in his opinion/what name ought to be given to the existing relation of things between the United States and Great-Britain: Whether it was called a state of pcaee, a state of war, a state of neutrality, a state of reprisal, a state of retortion, or a state of"very unci vil conduct on the part of Great Britain s nor did he conceive it material to afcer- •J .
