ct paramount enormity. Tel. New-York, May 3. Pel ice OJJJcCj Ci:v cf Nezu-7crk9 Af.r 3, 1819. The following letter was placed some weeks since in possession of the police magistrates of this city. They immediately acted, as far forth as their means admitted, on the information it contains. A duplicate has been transmitted to Cincinnati. In consequence of the total want of pecuniary resources to dcvelope a coospirar -:' ni.acTnir.ndtv rhp magistrates m the odice have concluded to place it, for the purp;vie of greater precaution, before the public. The writer is known to them, but at present, is not within their power. It is believed that L. J. P. has exaggerated yet there is no doubt of the process of a forgery extensive beyond precedent. O'ditors throughout the United Srates may serve the public interest, by publishing the letter and this introduction. " Cin :;;;.?:, (Ohio,) September 1, 18 13. Sir I have succeeded beyond my most sanguine expectations in getting plates engraved. I have enacred Mr. " . W." to engrave plates for the Ust you list forwarded me. He is a most superior engraver ; but as he will not be able to execute the whole as soon as I could wish., he has employed a Mr. 44 L. R." and Mr. " N. IV to assist him. Mr. " N. P." is ako an excellent engraver. Since I left New-York, I have had employed no less than seven engravers, all of thein pretty gv)od workmen but you must be sensible, that it would require a great many to perform the work I have had done. They have, all of them, except "Mr.'N. P." engaged to take the bills weshallhavestruck own from the plates of their engraving in pay for the work.. Mr. " N. P." is such an infernal coward, he will not consent to take any part of his pay in his own notes, so that I wish you would forward me a hundred or more dollars in good money so soon as you receive this. Wc shall feel the loss of Mr. Emmons very much, You

have doubtlcS3,T'card the particulars of his apprehension and confinement, for being concerned in robbing the Farmers and Mechanics' Bank of Pittsburgh. I cautioned him aga'mst having any concern in it, but he would not hear to me. 1 would not have believed him such a cursed fool as to have disclosed the whole transaction, and. where the money was concealed. You have doubtless heard the particulars of this affair from some of our assoc iates, as it occurred last spring. A Pittsburgh piper of the 5th of June, mentions the circumstance. I must confess I have had some fears that the poor penitent sinner would disclose something that would send our plans to the devil, if not us with them. However, the time has pas-cd on so long, that I think we may consider ourselves pretty secure. If you have asirood success in procuring paper for the bills as I have had in getting "the plates, we shall be able to inundate the whole United States and Canada. If we undertake to dispatch business on the scale we have commenced, we rh iii require at least three presses. The expense of erecting these you know will be no object. I should think well cd having one in New York, under your immediate inspection;, one in lioston utucr "tiic. uiiccUon ut Mr. "L S B" and one at this place, which I w ill undertake thcchaireof ivvselt. As the Lids tf theb?nksin your state arc generally more current in the dirtercnt sections cf the union, you will perceive Oy the following list I have had more plates made for them than anv others. To rive vou an idea of the unprecedented success I have had, I will rive you a list of the plates I have got under way, proceeding in alphabetical order, viz.
