Another Js that the work wus carried on fn tho kitchen of a dwell- ing-houso ina populous section of tha Clty of Oswego,and that no extraordinary meanures wero used to cover up the doings of the operntors, Tho transactions of the concern wero com- menced in a amall way nenrly a year ngo, tho citizens of Oswego and tho surrounding towns occasionally potting hold of a spurious 10 or 20 cent piece, und on longer fntervals a half- dollar or a counterfeit trade-dollur would tind its way into some one’s till, Some time tu Octo- Der Inst a grocery merchant in Oswego, named Danlel McSweeney, with whom Frank Gibson wns n partner, found on severn! occusions counterfoit coin in tha monoy drawor, and warned Gibson to be more careful.

In making Mrs. Ingersoll’s nequaintunee ho Brought to bear all tho art that a shrewd and calculnting mind can, and was gratitied to sco that a favorable iinpression hid beon made, Mrs, Ingersoll, tay be inferred, was ono of tho londora in the gang, though there 1s con- Hleting evidence; nt any rate she was a shrewd and business-like Ieutenant, and to her appare ently was given tho selection of those who ‘wore to net ns commercini-men in disposing of the “goods.” Van Horn ronewed his calls on special invitations, and on once occasion was permitted to visit tho Kitchen, whoro 1 job of Blivorsplating was golng on, und frum whonce ho ‘was the proud bearer of a counterfeit allver dollar, for which ho pald Mrs. Ingersoll fifty gonts good money.

In one pictures aro conspicuous; in nnother, tapeat rion and porce- Ining; but nothing is clnssificd in groups. Ob- dects of art mingle with tho furniture and seem tobe dis 4 entirely inn decorative point of view; and, although tho taste of threo pro- priotors—tho Princes Nicolas und Anatole Demi- dof, ana Prince Paul—has arranged nll this, nothing 1s discorinnt; the harmony ts perfect, All that tho genius, tho industry, tho Intelli- gence of man can creato aro here united; ane nt evory atop we behold specimens of tho in- dustry and art of atl ages.
