The large decrease IN exports Is the result OF the
lower prices obtained for Cotton, aS well as by the
much smaller quantity which has gone forward.
Thus deficiency has not been counteracted excepting
in a degree. by the increased export of Breadsluhs
All the leading articles of produce show decreased
quantity exported, excepting BreadstuiiS. The ex-
ports of the year. however, thus far, show an IN
crease over last wear

EXTENSIVE FoRGERIEs. Some days
ago we mentioned the arrest Of a lad
about eighteen years Of age, named
Edmund D. Woodruff, who presen-
ted forged check for payment at
the Seventh Ward Bank. When
first examined Woodruff refused TO
make any disclosures, but he has
since been prevailed upon TO turn
States evidence, and the revelations
he has made have led to the exposure
Of the wholesale system OF forgery
unparalleled since the DAYS Of Mon.
roe Edwards. The persons implica-
ted are Augustus T. Rowe, formerly
agent for a line of steamers for this
city and Philadelphia; Benjamin
White, a lottery dealer; VIM. Fl.
Webb, a resident Of Stamford, Conn.,,
Mr.. Earle, and several others whose
names are for the present withheld.
Those mentioned have been arrested.
Their operations are said to have
been conducted in the method thus
described:
Six or seven men combine togeth-
err one or two are in possession of
stores, for the purpose Of establish
ing a show Of responsibility; goods
are purchased of merchants, from
whom, by receipting Of bills, or by
exchange Of checks, the signature Of
the firm is procured. The merchan-
die thus fought is again sold, and
the check of the firm received in
payment. From these checks forge
ries are perpetrated, executed so
closely 10 the original that, in near
ly every instance, not only has the
paying teller in the bank been decei-
we'd, but the merchant himself was
unable TO select the forged one, when
placed among several Of the original
checks"
A list OF the forged checks discov-
cred, were produced before Justice
Osborne, who is conducting the in
vestigation.
Woodruff has further testified that
Rowe had bundle Of forged checks
ready for use, and among them was
a check drawn on the Seventh Ward
Bank for $4,000. purporting to be
signed by Walter Bovine, ESQ.,
Two checks, with the counterleiied
signature of Mr.. Bovine, are said TO
have been presented TO that Bank
and paid. The operations Of this
gang Of forgers seem 10 have been
so numerous and extensive, that it is
by no means improbable additional
frauds may yet be developed. The
police are actively engaged in the
endeavor to discover every psrlicu-
lar connected with this villainous
and skillfully executed scheme, and
there is reason to hope that all who
are implicated will be detected and
brought TO justice.--N Y. CONNER

New CoEsrIrurzox-l5TH Sec
TIoN OF THE BnL OF RIeHrs.--A
motion was made before Judge Hoad-
ly, Of the Superior Court Of Cincin-
mai, ihe other day, TO enter an ex-
oneraior upon a special bail found
where party had been arrested by
a capias.
II was contended for the defen.
dent. that the 18th section in the bill
Of rights in the New Constitution
required a case of fraud to be made
out. not merely charged, before any
person could be imprisoned for debt
or compelled 10 give special ball.
The 18th section reads as follows:
"No person shall be imprisoned
for debt in any civil action, on mesne
or final process, unless in cases OF
fraud"
In deciding upon the motion. Judge
Hoadly was Of opinion that the real
question was, whether the New
Constitution repealed the "practice
act" under the old. He held that
the policy of The practice act was
not altered by the new Constitution;
for had it been the intention Of the
trainers Of the new Constitution to
introduce so radical and important
a change, they would have done so
in express terms, and not have trus-
ted to the chance of mere construc-
tion.

A most frighauI catastrophe oc.
cnrred here ahis evening, about 3
O'Clock, just as the pupils Of the ward
school No. 26 were about being dis
missed. The principal Of the depart
ment in the third story, Miss Har-
rison, was seized with sudden i'll
ness, OF a paralyiic nature. which
took such curious effect on her face
as to cause great alarm among the
children, the majority Of whom were
girls from s to s years Of age. The
CONSERVATION gradually increased,
and in the midst OF it the alarm Of
fire was raised, and the children at
once rushed for the stairs, which in
their eagerness they completely
blocked up, becoming wedged be-
tween the balustrade and the wall
Suddenly the banislers gave way and
scores Of children were precipitated
to the ground, distance of 80 feets--
The parents OF the children quickly
arrived, and as body after body Of
the dead or injured children was ta~
ken up The screams Of their mothers
were heartrending. So far as can
be ascertained, As are said to have
been killed. aud the same number are
more or less injured. Some cannos
survive, and probably before morn
ing many Of the injured will die.
