New York, Nov. 17th, 1849.—Having taken lessons in counterfeit Bank Note Detection, as given by Mr. H. C. Foote, I hesitate not to say that I am fully satisfied that if strictly followed and practised upon, any man may detect the most ingenious counterfeit. It has the advantage of being reduced to system, and the information imparted respecting genuine engraving is worth double the cost of lesson.
