Old notes.
--In these days of skillful note engraving, it is interesting to examine the bank paper of days gone by, when art was imperfect and counterfeits were rare.
A gentleman has placed in our hands two notes which are curiosities in their way. One is a ten, of the Farmer's Exchange Bank, Rhode Island, dated July 6, 1808; the other a two, of the Franklin Bank of Alexandria, D. C., dated March 25, 1817. We have an older one, issued in 1776, and intend to hold on to the whole batch until somebody gets ready to accept them in payment for "value received."
