Passing counterfeit money. --A detective connected with the Provost Marshal's office arrested, on Saturday night, a man named Robert Blossingham, for having in his possession a ten dollar and twenty dollar counterfeit C. S. Treasury notes, and a pass from Gen. McClellan. Blossingham yesterday had an examination before C. S. Commissioner Watson, when it appeared that he was a resident of Williamsburg, Va; had lived there a long time, and formerly kept the old Raleigh Tavern before it was burned; that being found there when the Yankees came into possession of the place, he had been forced to stay and accept their protection, such as it was. One of them passed on him as genuine the bogus money, and he received it not knowing its worthless character. A number of refugees from Williamsburg were examined pro and con in this case, which was finally sent before Gen. Winder to be determined by him.
