About three o'clock yesterday morning John Hughes, Tesiding and doing business as a grocer at No. 303 Monroe street, was awakened by @ gentieman named Sullivan, residing in the same house with him, who in- formed him that there were pereons in the store beneath. Rapidly attiring himself, Mr. Hughes at once proceeded down stairs, and opening the back door leading to the shop found an individual inside of whose intentions and business there could be no question. Withoat parley Mr. Hughes at once aimed a blow as the intruder’s head with a club, which had scarcely descended when the report of a pistol fired by some other party, further back in the store, the bail from which grazed Mr. Hughes’ side, tearing tbe clothing, and just glancing along the flesh, buried itself in the woodwork of the door, rang out in startling menace of the presence of a confederate, Alarmed by this demonstration and evidence of the desperate character of the burglars, Mr. Hugnes hastily ved up the rear into the wi ren ‘ancth: er aot en fired ao “Noe tate ‘wo men ran out of the store into the entry Py n= ep gg ig Sa Mes. Hughes, who had followed her husband down stairs, seized hold of one of them, who imme- imed a pistol at her head and fired, the ball just the ear, So close was the range and mar. derous the intent that the ear was scorched with the flame of gthe discharge. Freeing himself from Mrs Hughes’ grasp the ruffian then followed ee who had ‘Subsequen: lughes ee ead Jimmy in the store which the bi bad le Anche (es in aA V4 a q of the Thirteenth precinct, arrested John w et one of the wonceraed i ; following testimony burglary was elicited :—The was identified as having at while Mra Hughes that one of the ruffians in the yard and t Fy Tear door, and then pushing back the bolt with some taatrament, But a very trifling amount of property, ; some cigars, was carried off by the burglars, al- though a Fenian bond for Qhinsing since their visit $10, which was in the store, is COUNTERFEITS AND COUNTERFITING. Never in the history of any country has the system of counterveiting been carried on go extensively and scientifically, and reached such a high state of perfec- tion, as it has in thig withia the last four or five years. ‘Tho bost artists, the most accomplished engravers, the smartest “shovers,”” collected from all parts of the world, have banded together, and, with the assistance of a liberal outlay of capital, made common cause im @ warfare against the currency of this country ina manner so well planned and carried out as to ingure for themselvesan undoubted, one might almost say @ very liberal, success—a success 80 COll- plete in many instances that it would hp a mistaken sense of propriety—nay, it would be downright guilt—to conceal the fact from the people or to omit giving them the necessary caution and advice, so that i: may be in the power of those who read the Hxratp to detect readily those spurious fgsues,so many of which are, even at the present moment, thrown upon thecountry — injurious to the rich, ruinous to the poor and embarrass. ing to the value of the mational currency of the United States. PRECAUTIONS AGAINST COUNTERFEITING. In Grst issuing the greenbacks and national currency notes precautions were taken which were ex- pected to defeat all attempts at counterfeiting. Upwards of $300,000 were expended by the government on plates. ‘The best artists in the country were engaged, none but the most experienced engravers employed, and to ren- der imitation stil! more dificult the vignettes on the notes were taken from the finest of those historical paintings that grace and adorn the interior of the Na- tional Capitol at Washington. For instance, the engraving on the back of the ten dollar note represeats De Soto @iscovering the Mississippi; that on the back of the twenty dollar, the Baptism of Pocahontas; on the ifty dollar, the Embarkation of the Pilgrims, aad on the hundred, the Signing of the Declaration of Independ- once, SKILL OF THE COUNTERFEITERS. Splendid though as were those paintings, so true to history, so exquisite in conception, equally good and equally perfect, as copies, are the vignettes engraved on the currency; and yet, despite the expense, labor and artistic skill required, spurious imitations have been “shoved,” to use a technical expression, op the country good enough and sufficiently per- fect to deceive experienced eyes and to be recelved as genuine over the counters of some of the largest and most extensive banking houses in the country, and go secretly and silent has the manu- facturing of ‘them been carried on and so cleverly have they been put in circulation, that only in a few instances have the secret service police, composed of very clever men in their profession, been able to bunt any of the leaders *‘vo earth” or to prevent the fruits of their labors from appearing constantly—at least trom time to time— in different portions of the country; and, do what the government may, in the way of improving plates, those clever bad men unerringly follow and pause not at their illegal work, but continue with a perseverance really wonderful to imitate and imitate from day to day, and the newer the currency, or coin or device the more ac- ceptable and suitable is it to their purpose and desire, Even mall five cent com has been already counter- fei and the eounterfeits are in circulation and have been within the last few days. The die or r matrix by fnich they are made is almost’ perfect, Dut the metal is bago, in many instances not better than common lead. COUNTERFEITS NOW IN CIRCULATION.

CURRENCY MOST LIABLE TO IMITATION, The above gives a very fair ides of the extent to which coun! ing is and has been carried on. No note of a lower denomination than two doliars is given in the list, mocerthelens, 1 le on the fractional currency that counterfeiters have most successful. The: rious imitations of the fifty cent stamp bave been all but perfect, and go like the genuine did they appear that ‘at one time it was considered a loss of time to question the (ineness of one, as the counterfeit passed cur- rent as quickly as the original, and the older they be- @ leas fiable did they become to the slight made on their first appearance, and invariably the par- ties who fell into the cluches of the law were in posses- sion of sums varying in amount from $500 to $15,000, A party of Italians on their way to Nashville wore ar- Louisville, Ky., and on their per- ‘sons were found no less than $14,000 worth of this bogus money, the greater portion a spies we poh ow cent currency, engraved and printed as well as, not excelled by, any of the kind that ever emanated from the United States Treasury. cual current Paiforea. greater facili to the ‘The fractional cu! of counterfeiters than do those bills—$5 and up' hieb vignettes are engraved, and invariably, as & rus role, the imitator fails much more in portraits fe a os jormer ouerall ly gives "a otaken and Teas expression uot bill, and found — in for been also copied. On the other hand, the most im} it is that of Chase: Siaeeeety wees ewe ve dependence;”’ and of names, signature of F, E. before being signed; the only thing therefore counter- feit about the bill is the signature, and these are es} cially dangerous, as, if the name be of only a local im- portance, strangers are unable to detect the forgery on ‘the signature, while they see that the main body of the document is perfectly correct. When counterfeiters ase a national currency plate and the spurious issue is detected, they have nothing furtber to do than change the name of the town, substitute a new one, and then push the new counter- feit on again, 80 before the note could be com- pletely tioned”, the “flyers” would have run it through every town and State in the Union where there may be a national bank. ALTERATION OF NOTES, business 1s also done by altering notes and bills, whicb is done in various ways, in some cases evincing an ingenuity and invention that in another, an honorable sphere would undoubtedly lead to a happier goal than the felon’s cell. In some cases notes are altered by raising the denomination, which is done by scraping the genuine number untit it is vory thin, then pasting the counterfeit number over it. This, however, can be detected by holding the bill to the light, when the pasted portion will appear thicker and darker than the remainder. Poople neglect te take this precaution, and often suffer by the neglect, as the pasting is by no means an unusual occurrence. Some time ago in a New Eng- land town a fellow passed a fifty dollar greenback of this ciass, He made it look thoroughly genuine by pasting on a portrait of Hamilton cat from a two dollar green- back, and from neglecting the above caution it passed through several hands betore it was detected. The rogues sometimes, and successfully, the game of puaneing genuine bill ona b 10 a good a ‘The denomination is often taken out with an acid and a higher number printed in its stead with a counterfeit die, as, for instance, from ‘one dollar’ to five, however, is liabie to detection, as the “tive” will be en- graved by hand and “dollar” by genuino means; an S must also be added, which will give ita crowded ap- arance, The acid will also spread, infringe on the Fetcers of the word and take out more than the counter. feiter desired. The paper will also be stained, as can be seen trom the back. On United States biils or green- ‘backs this change can be still further detected by the fact that the ones, twos and threes have acircle of green lines radiating from the denomination, and this circle can be found on no higher notes than threes of genuine. ‘This is very the case in removing the names of A very 1 genuine bills in thi whieh, with one piece of bill, abd that is the profit, case is safe against loss, as banks will redeem the genu- ine parts at tue fractional value.

In the manufacturing of gename notes the chief and Tost important feature is the geometrical lathe work, which cannot be successfully imitated. Jt produces ‘those fine lines that can be seen in the bills and which are the characteristics of the genuine note. All the figures on bank notes of ovais, cil ‘squares, &c., upon which the denomination is usually pi ‘are composed entirely of a network of these fine lines, crossing each other at such angles and distances as to produce the desired effect. This fine line in genuine work can be traced by means of a lens throughout the figure, never breaking or losing in another line or pursuing any irregularity whatever, It 1s usually white on a black or green ground, or sometimes red; but may be a black, green or red line on white, On the $10, $20, $50 and $100 bilis the lathe work is really beautiful, and a carofai comparison of it (with the aid of ‘a lens) with a suspteious note wilf at once determine the real character of the bill. The patterns produced by ‘this lathe, which was invented by Asa — of Con- necticut, and Urst brought into uso in 1818, aré various, the fine line the characteristic of them all.
