" OF tlie many remaikable trials which
the present extraordinary system of crimi
nal jurisprudence in G. Britain and Ireland
has brought before the public eye; this,
certainly is moll entitled to universal pe
rufaland attention. It developei, more
fully than any publication extant, the lat

cial prosecutions (or persecutions( and de
cifionsare now more the result of the pre

ed attachment to the laws or the conftitii

wonder and admiration of mankind, the
the firm, manly, and patriotic conduct of
this devoted vidtim—this' Second Sydney,'
as he has justly and deservedly been called;
who in thecourfeof one of the longest tri.

drew involuntary applause from the venal

The Public are cautioned to
be<ware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills
of the Bank of the United States, at.d
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
America, Several of which have appeared
in circulation within a few days pajl; they
are good general imitation of the genuine
Bills, but may be diflingui/hed by the ftl
owing
marks.
Five Dollar Bills of the Eut.k of the
United States.
ALL that have appeared have 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 the word Company is fmalltr
than the M. and other letters of that word
so that a line extended from ihe top of the
O, to touch the top of the M wouldextend
confiderab'y above the range of the whult
word.
In the word United the letters are nar
rower andclofer together than th* reft 0 f

The i and /in the word promise are not
parallel, the/inclining much more forward
than the a.
The engraving is badly executed, the
ftiokes of all the Letters are stronger and
the devi e in themargin particularly ismuch
coaifcr and appears darker than in thetrue
bills'. Some ol the counterfeits bear date in
I Whereas the Bank was not in opera,
tioii* till December, and no five dollar bills
were iflued in jhat 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 on a paper nearly fimU
lartothat of the counterfeit Five Dollar
Notes above described; the engraving is
better executed, and they approach nearer
to the appearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word
Twenty, in the body of ihe bill, are in num
ber thirteen in the genuine bills, and but
twelve in the counterfeits.
The word Company ismtjchlike the fame
word in the Five Dollar Bills as described
above, the 0 being less than the and o
thers following.
There is no stroke to the t in the word
North whereas in the genuine bills tlieftroke
is well defined.
The letters ens in the word Twenty > to
the left hand at tne bottom, do not come
down to the line, but are so cut as to give
an irregular appearance to the word/ the
Tw and hey going below them.
The signature J Nixon, has the appear
ance of being written with lamb-black and
Oil, and differ* from other inks, used in
printing th bills and the caftiiei's figna-
ture.
It is supposed these forgeries were Commit
ted in/ome of the Southern States, as all the
counterfeits that hav<* appeared; have come
from rhence, and two persons have been ap
prehended in Virginia, on suspicion ol being
the author of them.
The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOL
LARS win be pa'd to any Person or Perfouj
who dial 1 discover and to convic
t'on the several offenders of the following
descriptions or any ot them, viz.
The person or pcrfons, who manufactur
ed the paper on which the fiiih are printed.
The person or persons, who engraved the

The printer orprintcrs, of the bills.
Every person who has acted as a principal

uttn ing tUe said bills.

Other counterfeit bills
of ihe Bank of the United States have ap
peared in circulation.
The denomination is of TWENTY
DOLLARS, and the alphabetical maik is
the letter B.
They may bediftinguifhed from the ge»
nuinc by the following MARKS :
The paper of the counterfeits is of a
more tender texture and glofley furface
than the genuine, and there is no water
mark in them.
The letter C. in the word Cafliier, in
lie true Mils is strongly marked, whereas
in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a
fine hair llroke, evidently in an unfinifhed
(Lite. The letters in the word demand,
is badly formed and the whoJe word ill done
and there is no comma at theend of* it, as
there is in the genuine bills.
The marginal device, is much darker
in the falfe, than in the genuine bills ow
ing to the shade strokes being coarser, much
nearer together, and consequently nnich
more This difference ft» ikes the
£ye at firft view.
