The Public are cautioned to
beware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills of
the Bank of the United States, and Twenty
Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America,
several of tahiTh ha ve appeared in circulation
» quit bin a feiu days pafl; they are a good ge
e neral imitation of the genuine Bills, but may
11 be dijlinguijhed by the following
MARKS.
— jFive Dollar Bills of the Bank of the
United States.
ALL that have appeared havs the letter F.
for their Alphabetical Mark.
Q The Texture of the Paper is thicker and
whiter and it takes the ink more freely than
r. the genuine paper.
The O. m the word Company is frfialler
( e than the M. and other letters of that word,
so that a line extended from the top of the O,
to touch the top of the M. would extend con
fideiably above the range of the whole word.
In the word United the letters are narrow
erand closer together than the reft of the bill
® The i and fin the word promise are not
parallel, the y'inclining much more forward
than the i.
The engraving is badly cxecuted,the strokes
iV of all the Letters are Wronger and the device
in the margin particularly is much coarfcr and
J appears darker than in the true bills. Some
ol the counterfeits bear date in 1-91—Where
as the Bank was not in operation till Decern
ber, and 110 five dollar bills were illued in
t ihat year.
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
t America.
e ALL that have appeared have the letter
, B tor then alphabetical inai k.
'» Tiiey are printed on a puper neatly fimilav
e to that of the counterfeit Five Dollar Notes
above defenbed ; the engraving is bote* £xe
ucted, and they approach nearer to the ap
pearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Tnen
(v, in the body of the bill, are in number thir
teen in the genuine bi]U s and but twelve in
the counterfeit *.
The \void Company is much like the fame
/ word in the Five Dollar bills «.s defer ibed a
t bove, the 0 being ieis than the m, and others
following.
There is no stroke to the t in the word Forth
whereas in the genuine bill's the stroke is well
defined.
The letters ent in the word la'W/j, to the
left hand at the bottom, do no: come down to
1 the line, but are so cut-as to give an irregular
appearance to the word,,the Jui and ihej- go
ing below them.
The signature |. Nixon, has the appear
ance of Ining written with lamb-black and
01, and d liters troth other inks uicd in
printing the bills and the cashier's signature.
It ivfuppofed thefc forgeries weie committed
in 10me of th« Southern btates, as all the coun

thence, and two peifons nave been apptehend
