FORGERY.

THE Proprietor of the Hibernian Press, King-street, has much pleasure in letting the Bankers, Merchants, and the public generally, know, that he has purchased from the widow of the late Mr. Price, engraver, of this city, that celebrated machine with which he executed the Sydney Bank Note Plates - work which will defy any one to copy without immediate detection - which if the public avail themselves of, will be the means of avoiding a great many prosecutions in our Courts. Work reasonable; and in a superior style. 6703
