IN TWO VOLUMES.
1S By -Mrs. ROWSON, of the New Theatre,
s Phladelphia, Author of Victoria, the In
lC| quifitor, the Fille de Chambie, &c.
r; Of Charlotte, the Reviewers have
c- given the following character.
IT mav be a Tale oi Truth, for it is
11 not unnatural, and it is a talc of real dif
's treis. Charlotte, by the artifice of a teach
r» ei, recommended to a school, from huma
nity rather than a convi&ion of her inte
' S r 'ty» or the regularity of her former con-
dust, is enticed from her governess, and a -
ccompanies a young officer to America.-—
The marriage ceremony, if not forgotten,
( is postponed, and Charlotte dies a martyr
to the inconstancy of the over, and treach
j cry of his friend.-—The situations are art
less and affelting—the descriptions natu
c ral and pathetic; we fliould feel for Char
g lotte if such a person ever existed, who
for one error perhaps, deferyed
,t so severe a puniihment. If it is a fic
1r tion, poetic justice is not, we think, piO
n perly diitributed.

'I! Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of tlx
United States.
t, ALL that have appeared have the letter
F. for their Alphabetical Mark.
:li The Texture of the Paper is thicker and
j. whiter and it takes the ink more freely
than the genuine paper.
The O. in the word Company is smaller
than the M. and other letters ot that word
_ so that a line extended from lire top of the
~t O, to touch the top of the M. would cxtei d
considerably above the range of the whole
fford.
In the word United the letters are nar
rower and closer together than the reft 0 f
- the bill.
a The i and /in the word promise are not
e parallel, the/inclining much more forward
than the r.
The engraving is badly executed, lie
strokes of all the Letters are ftronge* and
d the devi ein themargin particularly is much
coaifcr and appears darker rhan in the . ne
j bills. Some ot the counterfeits bear date i n
r ' "9 I—whereas1 —whereas r he Bank was not in opera.

~ were issue:! in that" ytir.
. r Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
t America.
s ALL that have appeared have the letter
d B. lor their alphabetical mark.
Pi:ey are printed on a paper pearly fimi
r lar to that of t he counterfeit Five Dollar
Notes above deferred; the et? raving is
better executed, and they approach n a ret"
to the appearance of the genuine hills;
The fine ruled lines thiniif.il ,1c
e '"""h'f '« the body of the bill, are in rum.
t 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 defctibed
. above, the 0 being lei's than them, and o
thers following.
3 There is 110 stroke to ;thc t inihe word
r North Whereas in tl>e genuine bills tlieftroke
is well defined.
s The letters <nt in the word Twenty > to
. the left hand at the bottom, do not con e
j down to the line, but are so cut as to give
* an irregular appearance to the word, the
Tw arid ihejt going below them.
Ihe (ignature | Nixon, has (he appear
ance ol being written with lamb-black and
" 01J, and differs from other inks used in
printing the bills and the cafhiei's signa
ture.
It is supposed these forgeries were commit
ted in fomeofthe Southern vtafes, as all the
counterfeit* thai have appeared, have come
from jhcnce, and two perf« ris have been up*
p:chended in Virginia, on suspicion ot being
the author of them.

Other counterfeit bills
of the Bank of the United States have ap
peared in circulation.
The denomination is of TWENTY
DOLLARS, and the alphat e.ical mark is
thie letter B.
They may be distinguished from the ge*
nuine by the following MARKS :
The paper of the counterfeits is of a
more tender texture and g'oftey fr.rface
than the genuine, and tnere is 1/0 water'
mark in them.
The letter C. in the word Cafliier, in
he true bills is strongly marked, whereas
in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a
fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfinifhed
state. T®e%rter a in t* f word demand,
is badly formed and the wix>.V wordifr dure
and there is no comma at theend of it, as
