CAUTION. We copy the following from the Philadelphia Saturday Courier: The knave who lately drew six thou sand rlollari trom the Western Bank, by an allied rheck, has not been arrested, aud probably has still in his pocket the notes which he received. The check was aid with five one thousand dollas notes, one

' ! well lo repeat thai the We-tern Bank has iu cucuialion only eght one thousand dollar T,otts, numbered 3, 20,22, 20,33, 42, 45, 48 --.ill payable to Michael E. Israel. But Jivt Jivn hunlrcd dollar notes ate now out; their number;- being 15, 23, 31,49, 90. All these notes are printed wiih black ink, and all is-ued since will be in red, with dates later than the 1st of January, 1833 The j ornals with whom we exchange, by noticing the paniculate mentioned above may aid the B ank in detecting the rogue, and recovering the money.1' Machine for spinning hemp Mr. Joseph W esteiman, of New Yoik,says the New Yoik Couiier and Enquirer, has invented a machine, by which rope yarn is spun from hemp, without the process of hetrhelmg, aud, in consequence, without 1 11 ""ft' ' 1 ' I the usu il loss of eight or ten per cent. from that cause. 1 be machine 15 simple and it-, utility has been tested. It produ I ces a yarn far superior iu smoothness and strength to that produced by hand spinning; and the saving, it is said, would be fifty pel cent, but it appears that the operatives m the ropewalks at Brooklyn, N V. has prevented this machine from heing introduced to uBe; and the inventor is about repairing to Russia, to introduce it into that country, uuder the patronage of the emperor. MOXSTKOSITY. Dr. Scontellen, of Metz, has communicated to the Academy ol Sciences, in Paris, a wonderlul ca of monstrosity.

It is a white tly, with black stripes on its winps and back, similar, to a bug J Lut of a larger size These insects have come in such swarms that, like locusts of Egypt, they sometimes darken the sun. They alight on a field of ripe corn, where they remain for 21 hours, leaving on the ear an infectious matter which immediately dries up the stalk, and changes the grain into a paste similar to taich. It is eaid that if the corn were used for bread, it would prove mortal. Fortunately, natnre seem to nave uenieu m mis neiruc. live insect the instinct ol self preservation. It suffers itself to be approached and caught. It only alights on wheat, Indian com, and rye, and disdains all other com The country people, encouraged by the uiithoiilie6, collect these insects with as much care as olives. They are put into bag, and afterwards destroyed. The cornfields are then et on fire in the presence of soldiers sent by the authoiities, in order to prevent the inhabitants gather ing the dangerous pmdure Gal'mnani's Mtsstnger.
