The Texture of" the Paper i s thicker and whiter and it takes the ink more freely thaa the genuine paper. The O. in the word Company is smaller than the M. and other lexers yi' that word so that a line extended from the top of the O, to touch the top of the M. would extend considerably above the range of the whuJe word. In the word United the letters are*nar rower and closer together than the reft 0 f the bill. The i and fin the word protnife are not parallel» the much more forward than the t, .

The signature |. Nixon, has the appeal ance of being written with lamb-black and oil, and diffeis from other inks used in priming the bills and the cashier's iigna ture. It is supposed these forgeries were commit ted in foine of the Southern Stales, as all the counterfeits thai have appeared, have come from thence, and two pcrfons have been ap prehended in Virginia, on suspicion ot being the author of them.
