TUE Universal Counterfeit & Altered Bank NOTE DETECTOR. THE Subscriber desires to call the atten tion of the business public to a system of Counterfeit and Altered Bank Note detec- Wm by which any counterfeit or altered note of any modern plate in the-L. S. can .be infallibly detected at a glance. The sys tem consists of eight simp le rules which ex plain the principle of the work of the sever al kinds of expensive and perfect engraving enaines in general use by all bank note en graving Co., and show wherein all counter feits fail in imitating some one thing or oth-. er. Counterfeiters may be ever so well ac quainted with the system, but their knowl edge will only serve to demonstrate the fol ly of their ever attempting to imitate exact ly a genuine plate ; fur the capital necessa ry to do this may be much more profitably employed in executing genuine notes fur the use of banks. 'rho,Subscriber's brother has published a little work embodying, this system which May be briefly described in the following terms: The Univer.•al Counterfeit and Altered Note Detector at Sight ! applicable to any bank in the U. S. now in circulation or hereafter issued ; a small pamphlet of• 20 pages, with illustrative diagrams. The New York Scientific American of February 2:3d says of this work : Our readers will see in another column the advertisement of H. 0. Foote's Universal Coun terfeit Bank Note Detector. We have examined the system, and have no hesitation in stating that ;; will do more than all others now in use, to. wards .'alding the country of counterfeit notes. The instructions wLic.h accompany the magni fying glass, will enable a per.zon with very little trouble to determine between good and bad notes. We notice among those who have reccom mend ed the system, the names of E. \V. Edmonds, Esq., cashier of, the Mechanic's !hulk N. V.. E. if. Ar thur, Esq.. of the Union Bank ; C. S. Sloan, bro ker, Wall Street, and many other prominent money-dealers. From what - we can learn we should think it a subject of Universal interest."
