First, Oa the left band end f tb bills is asailer et&adtsg up; aad afeare bts bead is ashield as wliieh the fbilowiag waris are

: " Beeaivable ia paysseat of aM doesexcept xpert daea." In the tbeieirerpaiet of tais sfataid is abaai ne 16th at aa lachaW tbe sailer's bat Ia tbe ceaBrerieH tbepeiatef'the sUieW is imprrftxi : tbe jaiar knotmade. If perfect, it would ease dawn lowerthaa the tap of tbe bat. Ia tbe geauiae tapotet m Bearijr over toe caster of tbe aauorsbead a little to the Ml ; m the eeaaterfeit tbepeiat of tke shield (if it had the paint) wauldbe over tbe left baud side of tbe sailor batbrim, or near where the briia joins tbe creVa ofthe hat. ibis deieet m tbe poiat ot tba shield,aad its beia? placed tartbsr to the left af tbe '

sailor's bead, aud exteadtng kwer dowa ; aadset directiy obovt the bead as in tbe geatuae, UtheaaostpreaMiteat Bark of diatiaetiea.

The-- wagon wheel thai urn has tbe properaaaaW ot spokes aad thy are dial aad darklike the geoatae eary a lUtie mere 90 net tightaad oety exeeated, like the former couaterleit.Tbe aaule attached to the cottoa press is aleodim, aad more Hrdistiaet thaa the fwrmer eean-terfeit,a-

the haftteM aannot be &tea, Lot be isaot quite so laach Uumd as tba gaica. Intbe genuine tbe left hand hied wheal of thewar on has the spokes canieriag to the hah, atOn corner nj tke teagon bed ar ioWy. Ia tbeoouateMeit the attu appears to tke bed.

and out of sigfet the point where the spokesoou verge at the hub or axle, being conaatilcdfreai the view by tbe bed of the wagon.

The signatures are a qaicfc test to haoaa whoknow aad have the raa f all af theat; bat' oulybankers, or men wbo naadte UMmey largely, canmake this a test. We amay however, thataaarly all of thea apaaar to ta forgaiias atace, to a practiced ey. They ate eracaped

aad bear evtoaaoe at betas', slowly wrutan, inorder tbe better to iaiitata tba genuine. Theyare in a heavier haad and blacker ink. A manskilled in sock matters aa see at once that theyare written br an effrt, and sot by a free, easy,natural baad.

We have seen only aae ooanterieit nfty,though several of tbeai have been detected intms aty. Xy are also a sapenor lauauioa ottlie geaaiae ro perfect are they that we are un-able to discover any striking points or dissimilarity Bone that we oau describe which thecaaieioa reader can understand, save perhapsone. The tall before us is signed A. W .

Gray, for Treasurer." Tba ward "for" is mBMll coaiaMMi italics, and "Treasurer" is in

eautll caeitaS ; thus "fvr TKKASUrteiR.". Iaiba counterfeit, the hir liae oa which the signature k writlan, passes across toe '' is theword 7r' and touches tbe tops of the letters'or." Ia the genuine the word "W" is below

the line on which tbe signature is written. ItBrasses the upper portion of tbe "f," but doesnot touch the "ot" being above tbeai. This iatbe only distinction we are able to describe thatwe thiak can be comprehended by reader gen- -erally. The mallet is made bUck, tli- - srikx's dir- -

heveled aairjis smoothed down, tbe handle on tbeiron box is right, and we wenaaa s bead isin the right place. All the points of differenceare reoiedied, so that only an experienced personcan detect taem by tneir general appearaqoa.

Is ow what are too people to dor We advisethem to refuse every 20, 5U and 100 of the Hoyer& Ludwig plates. Ins government has calledfor them. Let titem be seat in and no merecirculated.

Much credit k doe to CoL W. W. Clayton, ofe Georgia railroad bank ageney, for defecting

the countetfeits of the treasury notes. He wastbe nrst to detect the toraaer counter tatIs aadalso tbe first to detect tbase. The country ovmsMat a debt of gratitude for hk skill aud rigilaueein ttus matter.

The Duly of the JPlaaters.The grand jury of Fayette county, G., at

their recent session, offered tbe ioUowiar sue- -

gestions in their presentments :

"in regard to piaatiog cotton in our cBatatv.for the next year, if planted to aay great extantwe cannot bat regard it as a fatal step towardthe destruction occur Confederacy, aud wouldrespectfully recommend our representative fromtnis county to use bis lnnueace ia the wmizeof such a law as will prevent it from beingplanted, only in such quantities as are necessaryMr nestesttc purposes. We would also astc htmto ase bis infloeaee in tbe passage of such a kwas will prevent tbe dutiUstioa of grain."

wnet&er tbe leguiatare enaets sach a law ornot, paUiotteua should dictate to our planters arepetition of the plan which they so generallyadopted iu the past planting seasen. If the wardoes not close by the time ior patting in the newcrop, it will be as great a folly to plant a fallcrop of cotton as it was tba past season. Enoughfor domestic uses and for seed should be planted,but fall crops woald be tba ruin of tbe countryBat at the present tiaae, the planting of largecrops of wheat k the policy which should beadapted throughout the Confederacy. Flour isranch more useful to the army than corn meal.because it can be much better saved and morereadily used ; and, iu order to supply tlia armywith fleer, large crops of wheat must be planted.It will be profitable to the planters, as the pricesduring the' war, though it is to be hoped thatthey will come down Considerably from theirpresent alrijada. And even if it ware not profitabk, itis a pntrioiie duty that the paiatecs oweto tae country aa to tbe oanse ot boutbern independence, to sow aa abundance of grain. Asto its diiHIlatiea, we do not knew whether complete legislation against it would be altogetheradvisable or beneficial. There is a roveramdntdemand for liquor, at It ait for medicinal pur-poses, whteh must be supplied; and if the distil-iatie- n

of .grain i effectively and totally prohibiiea, in any 01 e ot the S.ates, it vrjll greatly di-

minish the supply, and embarrass the eovern- -ment iu this respect. It will be the duty of thelegislature, therefore, at its next session, to legisiaie caudousiy on asairs ot such general in-terest. While attending to the rights and inter-ests of tbe people, it must also have an eye firstto the wants and interests of our armies; and anylegislation which regards the one aad not theother would be unwise and unjust.

Bat whatsVer may be tbe course of tbe legis-lature, tbo duty of tbe planters fc plain sad un-mistakable that is to pl&at, and plant largelyof grain. It will be a pieaeure to the press torecord a repetition of the patriotism whichmarked their policy in the past nee-to-n; and thatit will be deae. no one con reasaably doubt.Apgusi CoattitutumaluU.

The prisoners spenttour days pleasantly, on the way to Richmond,and were treated kindly aud hospitably by theircaptors, aud by all whom they met on tbe reute.The cavalry regiment of Colonel Chamblosswas handsomely mounted and uniformed, andtuny equipped. Ihere appeared to be an abundance ot salt, Hour, tresli beet, and shoes amongthe soldier, and good discipline prevailed.They treated each other with great kindness andcenrtesy. No whisky drinking or card playingwas auowea. .Much comment is made bv tberebel troops as to the csreless manner in whichour dead were buried on the plains of Manassas.AU the rebel soldiers denounce General Pone,but speak m the most complimentary terras ofjucCIerian. lhe country districts are exhaustedoi feed for mau and beast, and, in consequence,apprehensions exist of great distress among thepeople during the coming winter. Everybodybaa plenty ot paper money ot all descriptionsand denominations. The treatment of Federalprisoners at Libby Prison bas been changed fortbe better, and those confined with Capt.

Itseems that early yesterday morning, John Morgan, tpo. guerrilla chief, with his own aud bcott'scavalry, m all about three thousand men, entered tbe town, meeting with no opposition,General Sill having advanced beyond them,leaving no guard, and Damont not havingcome up. The only object of the raid seems tohave been mischief, and the only mischief effectedwas tho completion of tbe destruction of theturnpike bridge across the Kentucky river. Thismorning Duraont came upon them by surprise,and, after a short engagement, put thorn to utterrout. The report savs that Morgan's band isdispersed, and his men are wandering about thebills adjacent to f rauKlort, endeavoring to Keepout of the way of Duanonts pursuing forces.

Thenrspapproaeh ot the enemy wis heralded by aloud report from One of the Yattknn onnUt.and upon oxamination, it was discovered thatinree other gunboats followed in tlie wake of tbefirst. A largo- - number of Colonel Ferrebee'spaiusan angers, irom Aorta Carolroa, were.quickly posted in the dense UBdargrowth oh thesides of tho river. No sooner had the gunboatsgot within range than the sliarnhnotrH nneorIen them, quickly clearing the decks. For several nours the gunboats endeavored to moveforward, but as fast a3 they could supply thepmceg ot ineir Killed and wounded, the newcomers ware picked off, when the enemy at lastBecame disheartened, aad a retrograde- - meve-rse-nt

of tho steamers commenced. Oar nJitm- -suuoiers ioiiowed the boats lor several mibvidown the river, blazing away at every creviceand aperture, whero it was thought a bulletwould be kkelv to find its wsv to a YftnWabody. It is estimated that at loast oa hundredof tho enemy were killed and wounded in thissffalr. The fight on our side was conducted

Isolely by the sharpshooters, not a piece of can- -non .having been brought into action. Our casualties wero very triniug. nut two men werewounded, and neither of them mortally.

jjurmgthe aiiercoon ot inday, tbe enemyw&3 seen approaching in considerable forceacross the country, coming from the direotiea ofbimolK. This new demonstration was made byabout two thousand five hundred infantry, sixpieces of artillery, and from three to five hundredcavalry. Captam Uraham s Petersburg battery.and two sections of Captain Wright's Socketbattery, were ordered into position, and whenthe enemy got within range, our gunners openedon ths vandals with fine effect. The fight continued ior two hours, when our shot and shellfell so fast among the enemy, that they fled ingreat contusion. Our men behaved admirablythroughont tho engagement. Captain Graham'sbattery fired one shell, which exploded in thevery midst of a body of Yankee infantry, aud,as has been since Stated by a farmer living near,killed six men. The enemy carried ott threewagon-load- s of killed and wounded. Tbe Confederates bad one man wounded ; none kilted.

Captain Wright's rocket guns are said tohave played havoc with the Yanke cavalryTbe fierce whizzing rocket, and its fiary train,as it leu among the .Northern horsemen, produced great terror ameug the horses, and tbeanimals snorted, cavorted, pi tchel and reared,aud then scampered on in the wildest contu-sion, unhorsing many a Yankee equestrian.One fellow, whose feet were jolted from the stirrups, reignod up hk animal, to regain a feetk'g,when a rocket struck hk horse's head, and thenext momont the rider lay helpless and bleedingagainst a tree near by.

Our forces are in high spirits at the result ofthis first formidable demonstration, and anxiousto get another chance at tho dastardly iuvaders.We have now there a lorce sufficient to repulseany effort tbe enemy may make to cross the river,let him try it when he may.

it is a Jitue singular, that in tbe mormnr werepulsed his gunboats with our infantry (it de-mounted rangers may be called infantry.) andin the afternoon, the Yankee infantry, artilleryand cavalry, were compelled to take tbe backtrack by our artillery alone.

Ait Cngliah Opinion of a Muveboldiajfnation.

Fiom the London New nJ Abolition) Sept. IT.

Tho mends of secession in this country arejujtmcu in celebrating tbe military exploits ottae boutbern army. Their praieeM very high,tbe achievements of the Confederates beingfound te bo almost witbout a parallel, it is,moreover, we observe, iadicionslv Lightened bva tribute to the courage and tenacity of the Fed-erals, sueh 83 they would probably not have received bad they been suocessfjl. Far from wish-ing to extenuate or disparage the exploits of tbeContederato army, we desire teat they should re--coiva the fullest justice, and be considered in alltheir significance. We do not know ot any political object,, not of consequence immediatelypractical, to which tbe attention ct Englishmencan be more usefully directed than to the remarkable teats ot arms by which tbe Confederates assert their pretension to the mastery otthe new world. Certain we are that such astudy will overthrow many wide-sprea- d delu-sions which have been artfully propagated iuUii3 country.- -

The picture of Southern success which weare now invited to admire must destroy the notion that a people whose social system is foundedon slavery, is by that fact condemned to militaryweakness. When this war brose out, tba effortsof the North, to keep the slave power within tbepale and under the restraints ot the Union wereascribed to tka passion for empire, and our sym-pathies wero asked for a people greatly outnum-bered, and feeble in all but their indomitablepatriotism, who desired nothing more than to balet alone. Thousands of per-so-as

in this couatry accepted these representations. A slaveboMing nation, they thought,might very well be allowed te achieve its inde-

pendence ; by the very frame-wor- k of its societyit was condemned to feebleness, and in a stateof isolation it would learn the necessity of conforming its institutions to tire moral opinion ofthe wjorld..

We shall not now repeat the considerationswe nave urged to show that slavery, far fromunfitting a State for war, k itself a nursery forsoldiers. We have y waat k more con-vincing thaa any arguments a great fact. Hereis a power which has for eighty years had

liberty to spread itself overera portion of .the Union ; nobody has until nowdared to oppose its extension ; its character hasbeen developed witn a ireeuom unK&own, sincetho time of tho Greek republics ; its liberty inthis respect is absolutely- - incapaule-o- f addition,it cannot point the world to a single circum-stance in its condition and say, " Tbk k thatwhich warped my course this bas hindered mein the path of civilization." We know as muchof the character of. tbe South as we could knowafter it had procured the recognition of its independence, and tms is the sum : it is at thismoment the most barbarous" Anglo-Saxo- n community under the sun, the one whiok pursuesthe lowest ends in the present and takes leastthought fortthe future but it can fight. Its sys-tem of agriculture, precluding the intelligencewhich only attends freedom, turns tho most fer-

tile portions of tifs earth into wilderness tart itcan fight ,

From IhcLincol the Potomac.Silence still reigns along the lines of the Pe- -

tomac up to the latest hour of our adviees onyesterday. The Federal army continued to restupon their arms m Maryland, some five milestrom the positien our own, at Bunker s Hill, inVirginia. Tho latter locality is about twelvemiles from Winchester, and immediately overlooking the I'otomac, aud at night our soldierssee the smoke from the camp-fire- s of the enemy.For several days past tbe ! ederal cavalry bavemade three cr four raids into Virginia and, vis-iting old hospital stations at whieh a tew of ourmen bad been necessarily left, bave made a hundred or so-- prisoners and ient them back withinour lines. A number reached this city last eve-

ning. The entire force of the enemy now onthis side of the Potomac, in and north of thevalley, k estimated at between fifteen andtwenty thousand, of which number only tbecavalry have thus far been active.

It was reported ou yesterday at btaquton tnatthe enemy was crossing in force at Harper'sFerry. We have no confirmation of the report ;

and, as far as we are able to see, its simpleprobability k its only recommendation.

The condition of our army is excellent. Anabundance of everything is at hand, and thesoldiers now, for a timo at least, at their ease,erjoy the luxuries of that favored region, tothe full extent of their wishes. Fresh meats,butter, eggs, honey, and other good things, arecirculated copiously through tbe camps. Plentyof forage is also to be had, with tbe single ex-

ception of corn, which, however, k sufficientlyplentiful to meet the present demand.

The conntry in the rear, on both sides ofthe Blue Ridge, is almost completely desolate.Hundreds of fine farms are rained for the sea-

Wasiiisuton,. October 6. President Lincolnhas passed the morning in consultation with themembers of his Cabinet, and it k believed thatimportant results will follow bis vuut to thearmy of the Potomac. He undoubtedly left herewith tbe opinion that Uenerai .MeCieuan bad anavailable force of as many thousand men as therewere regiments set down at the War Departmentas under hk orders. Bat he saw, to hk surprise,that iu many instances not more than two or evenone hundred brave fellows marched past him inreview around their regimental fligs, and somebrigades were not equal to one lull regiment.Thk demonstrated the propriety of General McClellan s repeated demands tor reinforcementsduring the campaign on the Peninsula, andshowed at once why certain movements have notbeen made.

KEINFORCKSfKNTS.It is believed here that skeleton regiments

will at once be filled up with recruits, or consoli-dated aad be reinforced by new regiments, ifmen cannot be obtained witbout officers. Thereare some thirty thousand men in camp, scatteredover the Northern btatee. wbo can be Droughthere, or rather sent into upper Maryland withina fortnight. These men are wanted, now ornever, aad should not be withheld under any pre-text. There are' arms, uniforms, equipmentsaud ratlsBS in abundance, but men are wantedin order to make the army of the Potomaceffective, and to insure a quick and decisive campaign.

GUARDING FREDERICK.President Lincoln was doubtless somewhat

astonished at finding some twenty-fiv- e thousandof the new levies hovering around Frederick,instead of being on the Potomae, learning tbeart of war from tbe veteran, regiments thereencamped.

Y-ir- volunteer, now commanding the militarypost at K'-- West, Fierida, bas, by eur lastnews from that point, seen fit to keue a procla-mation declaring all the slaves on that island tobe free.

It k difficult to imagine s more unwarrantableassumption ef authority than that of ColonelMorgan in tbe issue of such a document. Itbeats Fremont and Hunter all hollow, aad al-

though causing inconvenience for the time, mustaud will be set aside, and the colonel desirous,no doubt, of a little abolition notoriety be re-

called aad laid en tbe shelf, as one partly, if notentirely, bereft of bk senses.

The public must know that Key West, although part of tbe State et .Florida, has neveryet been out of the Union. That many of itapopulation desired to be under the Confederategovernment is true; but they did not succeed,and all now remaining on febe inland have takentbe oath of allegiance, which entitles them to beconsidered as m all respects ioyai people.

There were some slaves oa the island whosemasters or owners had left when the militaryauthority compelled the oath to be taken. Theseslaves could have been declared free by ColonelMorgan jjgth perfect propriety; for they werethe prepeTly of men in arms against the govern-ment ; but tbat all among them the propertyof some as loval people as ever lived shouldbe declared free bv merely affixing hk signatureto a document of hk own framing, k simplyabsurd.

of the elective franchise. Never wimt thereso great a satire on republican institutions asthe compulsory voting required by PreeideatLincoln. But when a man a property k madeto depend not oa whether he chooses to votehimself, but on whether bk feliaw-ritiae- n

choose to vote, and whether the number votingunder thk executive compukion happens to bea majority, we are lost in astotrisnment that acbkt magistrate of a free country should under-take to make citiaens perform what ought to betheir freest act, under coercion, aad to convertthe ballot box into a criminal tribunal. Whatbaa the number of votes east in a particularelection to do wirh the question whether a par-tteal- ar

citizen k' guilty of treason T Whywemes, minors, and orpbaae be deprived

of their property in consequence of the neglectof ctnseas to vote 7

Thk extraordinary proclamation wiR bring nowfor someadvantages to the negro raee at all pnporaonato the obstruetieas it throws in the way of re-

union. It k certain tbat the Union will neverbe restored till tbk ill advised action of the gov-ernment is reversed. It converts every inhabi-tant of the Soutii into a zealot, whose all k em-

barked in tbe success ef the rebellion. The ideethat tbey will succumb to threats, tbat tbey willvote on compulsion, that they will fool terror ormisgivings, or anything but increased indigna-tion, at such a proekmetioa, shows small knowl-edge either of human nature or of the temper oftbe Southern mind. Such a. proclamation can-

not pooeibly be enforced, aad its only effect willbe to strengthen the determination f the rebekto fight to the very last. They are shut up ia xlane which bas uo turning. When too militarypower of tbe rebek is broken webave laid befeceourselves a still harder task to perform. At tbevery crisis of tbe contest of arms the Presidenthas reinforced them as effectually as if he haddoubled their squadrons in the field. We maylearn from our enemies. They will rejoice.Their leaders will make af tbk proclamationtheir efaiefest moral weapoft. It is powerless inoar bands for good in theirs, it will be potestfor evil. Our only salvation now is in th bal-lot--

x. To tbat it yet remains possible for thepeople to resort. There the battle feet y

may be woh there alone the insultedmajesty of tbe Constitution may be vindicatedby the people against its faithless custodians.

Tba Army and the Proclamation.The Washington correspondent of the New

York Express says:Tho proclamation seems ta excite but very

fittio attention among army officers. Indeed, eflate it k talked of with bat a smaH degree of in-

terest. If the intention of those wbo pressed itsissue Hpon the Exeeative, bad tbe derigB, atleast, of ousting General McClellan from bk po-

sition as eommander-in-chie- f of the army, tbeywero sadly mistaken.

No army officer has resigned in consequenceof tbe President's preelsraation, nor k it proba-ble tbat any will. It k a secondary maHer tosaving the Union. If the intentions imputed toseme of tbe loyal governors were carried out,viz: the creation of General Fremont as com-mander ef tbe army in" place of the rtreeent chief.there k no doubt but tbat several of tbe most I

etncient omeers in tne army would resign ineluding, most probably, Buraside, Hooker andSumner. By $0 united efforte of those bravem n, with the armies under their command,there k a ebaeee for tbe war being brought to anend before January, lb Southern States repre-sented in CtwgieiP, and tne proetemakioa ofAbraham Lincoln rendered mill and void, whiehwill be tbe most severe blow the radieak ean

iu the course of the war for tbe Unionand the Constitution.
