notwithstanding ihese difficulties the most
 vigorous measures were immediately adopted
 by the officers of the bank tO apprehend the
 tUrger and recover the money. Officers were
 sent in different directions. The President,
 Matthew Vassar. Esq. with deputy sheriff
 Osborne, went in pursuit iO Orange county,
 the banks at Newhurgh having been previous
 ly notified of the forgery. What is singular,
 it seems that the gentleman fOrger. although
 he had whole day the start, had. in cOnse-
 Quence of the success of his first attempt,
 concluded tO defer his retreat till he could re-
 peat the experiment at New burgh. About
 an hour or two after Mir. Vassar had arrived
 at Newburgh the purported Mr. Smith again
 made his appearance. and cOolly offered an-
 other forged note of SI6OO for discount, sign
 ed and endorsed as ibr first. A messenger
 was immediately sent tO notify Mr. Vassar,
 who fortunately was still in the village, pre-
 pairing officers to start for the west in pursuit
 The fOrger was kept waiting until Mr. Vas.
 sar's arrival, and then at once identified and
 arrested.
 On his examination DO money could be
 found about his person. and from papers in
 his pocket book his true name was found to
 be James Tyler Patric. from Cayuga county.
 Mr. Vassar was satisfied that he was the iden.
 tIcaI PersoD who obtained the money at the
 r. and M. Bank, but all efforts of the officers
 Of justice tO draw an acknowledgment from
 him were unavaiiing, and he was placed in confinement. MT. Vassar then determined on making another effort to extOyt from him confession where the money could be found, He accordingly entered the prisoners room alone. and by judicious management, after a. bout half an hours conversation, succeeded 1nAu hS A1NA sp.
 could be found; which was at the house Of Hiram Wright, a respectable farmer in inc town of Beekman, where the prisoner had been visiting. He gave MT. Vassar the key of his trunk in which the money was conceal ed, and directed him where to find it. Mr.. V. with Mr. Osborn, proceeded directly to Wright's house. where all the money, except S20. was fOund. according to the prisoners disectian. Great credit is due sO the officers of the F. and M. Bank for their prompt and exertion in arresting the forger and rec". ering the money.
 We understand that the prisoner is yourg man about twenty-sx years of age, that he owns good farm in Cayuga county. has here l0Gore sustained good character. and that his family and connections are highly respec- Eagle.
