New Counterfeits.
Among the latest counterfeits, and decidedly the
best, are 105 on the State Bank of Ohio. The
bill is letter B, No. 978, dated August 11, 1849,
mid payable at the Guernsey Brunch in Washing.
ton. The filling up is varied in thin:rent bills of
the same plate. The engravingis slightly coarser
on the counterfeit than on the genuine. The
whole appearance of the bill is well calculated to
deceive good judges of money. There is however,
one defect in the counterfeit by which it may be
detected. In the genuine hill the point of the
spear in the hand of the figure on the right, runs
to a very fine point, and intersects the shading of
the tail of the letter Tin the word Ten. in the
counterfeit the point of the spear is blind, mid
strikes very near the centre of the space between
the tails orr and E in the word Ten, and it is
folly one-eightli of an icicle shorter than:ln the
genuine bill.

twelve years, and is believed to be equal to any
Academy in the State in atibrding facilities to
young teen for acquiring a thorough academical
education, either for business or for college. Be
ing situated in a very pleasant neighborhood in
the country, the pupils are removed from those
temptations to idleness, dissipation and vice, which

high tone of morality pervading the community.

proved, and are large, appropriate and commodi
ous, constructed according to the latest and most
approved models of school architecture ; and are
believed to combine all the essential requisites for
the advantage and convenience of both learnerand
teacher. Pupils from a distance are required to'
board in the Academy with the Principals; but if
it is desired by the parents, good boarding may be
obtained in the neighborhood.

WESTERN LAND AGENCY.
A CAMPBELL, Land Agcnt at Lasalle,
A
linois, has openedagenend Land Agency for
Middle and• Northern Illinois, and Southern Wis
consin, where ho will attend to the purchase and
sale of Improved and Unimproved Lauds, payment
of Taxes, Location of Mexican Land Warrants,
making selections for those who may be entitled to
Bounty Lands under the late act of Congress, and
generally to all business connected with a general !
Land Agency.
Having completed arrangements whereby per
sons wishing to procure hands in this fertile and
rapidly improving portion of the West, can do so
at the minimum price of $1,25 per acre, without
she expense and risk of travelling there, any per
son who may pay to my Agent, James Maguire,
at Huntingdon, the sum of two hundred dollars,
will have ono quarter section (160 acres) entered
in their name, (or as they may direct) for which
they will receive the patent from the general Land
Office at 'Washington city, in their name, clear of
all charges.
According toexisting laws those lands are not tax
able for 5 years from the date of the entry. Sat
isfactory security will be given for all performances
on my part, and for the refunding of the amount
of the purchase, with 6 per cent., at the expiration
of five years, to any person who may then be dis
satisfied with the location.
The canal from Chicago to Lasalle, at the bead
of Steam-boat Navigation on the Illinois River,
the Railroad from Chicago to Galena, which is
now in process of construction, and the Railroad
from Chicago to Rock Island, on the Mississippi
river, now completed to Aurora, some 30 miles
west of Chicago, will pass through this country
from East to West, and the great Central Railroad
from Galena to the mouth of the Ohio river, pass
es through it from North to South, for the con
struction of which the late Congress appropriated
a large amount of land, thereby securing, beyond
doubt, its speedy completion; and there is no doubt
in the mind of any person well informed upon the
subject, bid Chicago will be connected with all the
Atlantic Cities by Railroad, in the course of from
two to four years from this time, thereby enabling
families to emigrate to this country in the short
space of from three to four days, from any portion
of the East, without the risk of travelling by steam
boat. Persons wishing to procure desirable homes
for themselves and Ilimilies, Will do well to mato
application soon, as the amount of public lands is
limited, and is being taken up tapkfly by actual
settlers.
Any information desired, can be obtained from
