Charlotte, a tale of Truth,
• IN TWO VOLUMES.
By Mrs. ROWSON, of the New Theatre,
Phladelplua, Author of Victoria, the In
qtntitor, the Fille deChambre, &c.
Of Charlotte, the Reviewers have given
the following character.
IT may be a Tale of Truth, for it is not
unnatural, and it is a talc of real cliltrefs.—
Charlotte, by the artifice of a teachei, recom
mended to a school, from humanity rather
thari a convi&ion of her integrity, or the re
gularity of her former conduQ, is enticed
from her governed, and accompanies a young
officer to America.—The marriage ceremo
ny, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Char
lotte dies a martyr to the inconstancy of the
ov.er, and treachery ot his friend —The situ
tions are ai'tlefs and affe&ing—the defcr ip
ations natural and pathetic ; we fliould fe
or Charlotte if such a person fever existed,
who for one error scarcely, perhaps, d.eferved
so Tevere a punifhmept. If it is a fi&iorj,
poetic justice is not, we think, properly dii
tribute <t '

Tl\'e r Pubfic' 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 us which have appeared in circulation
nvilhin "few days pajl; they area good ge
neral imitation of the genuine Bills, but may
be dtjlmguijhed by the following
MARKS.
Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the
United States.
ALL that have appeared havs the letter F.
for their Alphabetical Mark. # ,
The Texture of the Paper is thicker and
whiter and it takes the ink more freely than
the genuine paper.
The O. in ihe word Company is
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
siderably 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 /in the word promise are not
parallel, the/inclining much more forward
than the i.
The engraving is badly executed,the strokes
of all the Letters are ftronfger and the devke
111 the margin particulariy is much coarser and
appears darker than in the true bills. Some
ot the counterfeits bear date in 17gx—Where
as the Bank was not in operation till Decern
ber, and no five dollar bills were iflued in
that year.
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
America.
ALL that have appeared have the letter
B. for their alphabetical mark.
They are printed 011 a paper nearly similar
to that of the counterfeit Five Dollar Notes
above described; the engraving is bettei exe
ucted, nearer to the ap
pearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Twen
ty, in the body of the bill, are in numbfcr thir
teen in the genuine bills, and but twelve in
the counterfeits. "
The word Company is much like the fame
word in the Five Dollar Bills as described a
bove, the 0 being less than them, and others
following.
There is no stroke to the t in the word North
whereas in the genuine bills the stroke is well
defined.
The letters ent in the word Twenty, to the
left hand at the bottom, do not come do\vrt to
the line, but are so cut as to give an irregular
appearance to the word, the Tw and go
ing below them.
The signature J. Nixon, has the appear
ance ot being written with lamb-black and
oil, and differs other inks used in
printing the bills and the calhier's (ignatute.
It is supposed thefe-forgenes were committed
ill some of the Southern States, as all the coun
terfeits thai have appeared, have come Irom
i hfncjt —.»«>riVtng h ?u p frppn appiehend
ed in Virginia, oq iutpicion ot Dcing uie auihor
of them.
The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
will be paid to any Person or Persons who shall
discover and prosecute to convi&ion the several
offenders of the following descriptions or any
of them, viz.
The person or persons, who manufactured
the paper on which the Bills are printed.
The perforl or peifons, who engraved the
plates.
The primer w printers, of the bills.
Every person who has a&ed as a principal in
any other way, in the counterfeiting and utter
ing the said bills.
Philadelphia, March 28, 1794 *
April 22, 1794,
Other counterfeit bills
of the. Bank of the United States have appeared
in circulation.
The denomination is of TWENTY DOL
LARS,and the alphabetical mark is the let
ter B.
They may be diftmwuiftied irom. the genu
ine by the following MARKS :
The paper of tire counterfeits is of a more
tender texture and glofiey furface than the
genuine, and there is no water mark in them.
The letr»r C. in the word Cashier, in the
true bills tsftrongfy marked, whereas in the
counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair
stroke, evidently in an unfinifhed state. The
letter a in the word demand, is badly formed
and the whole word ill done, and there is no
comma at the end of it, as there is in the
genuine biHs.
The marginal device, is much darker in
1 un * n t^lc £ e " u »tie bills owing to
tne shade strokes being coarser, much nearer
together, and conlequently much more nu
merous. Ihis difference strikes the eye at firft
view. >
J^ e me reward of ONE THOUSAND
» DOLLARS, will be paid for apprehending, &

THE grand principle of Equality,if right

universal justice, factcd order, and perfed
freedom, can be firmly built, and permanent*
lv secured. The
" "eTlay, at "the* la me" tunc that it rcpre/Tfis the
insolence of office, the tyranny of pi itfe, and,
the outrages of oppreflion ; confirms, in thp
most forcible manner, the neceflity of fubcw

thority. So far "indeed, from loosening the
bands bf society, that it maintains inviolate, j
every natural and every civil diftin&ion,
draws rhdre closely every locial tie, unites in
one harmonious and juflly proportioned sys
tem, and brings men together on the eve*
ground of the inherent rights of humau na
