Singular Case Of Forgery.-A short
time since a man made small pur-
chase of Messrs. Everts & Curtis, OF
Fulton street n. Y, and rendered in
payment 500 bill. Not having the
change, he took their check for the
balance, and left, saying that he would
send Tor what he had purchased. On
Saturday the genuine check was paid
at the bank, and shortly after, forged
one for S63l was presented, and an
unsuccessful effort was made TO arrest
the boy presenting it. The forgery WAS
done so neatly that one OF the firm pro-
nouuced the signature to be that Of his
partner. 1t has since been ascertaned
that the same trick has been played in
Philadelphia and other cltlcs.

TAE SHADOW oE DrAru. II is almost
certain that Daniel Webster lies on the
bed OF death. Perhaps even already,
he has ceased TO live. 1t is, therefore
probable that The approaching Prtsiden-
tlal rIerIion viii have new element
added 10 it, beyond those we noticed
yesterday As peculiar. The shadow OF
Death will lie upon it. 1t will he above
the grave OF Webster, perhaps, and
while the bells still toll .or his funeral.
that the struggle Will be carried on, and
the ambition OF the successful candidate
graTifed.
When il is remembered that Mr..
Webster hims, If was originally one OF
The post prominent competitors, al
that until 30 late an hour as yesterday
his naUe remained before the people,
this fact fleets the mind that is proper
~ regulated with indcseribable emotions
ofmelancholy. The angry strife OF par
ties becomes almost Il sacrilege. Even
the ordinary tumult of canvass az
pears out of place. 1t seems an insult
to the ashes Of the dead to struggle
around his bier Tor honors 10 which he
was an asprant Never before has a
Presidential contest been iraugurated
under such solemn circumstances. AS
the voters enter the Temple, there 10
deposit their suffrages, the funeral bell
tolls, and the shadow OF Death falls
across the threshold. Ii will be nation
in grief that will elect the next Prcsi.
dent.
This reflection should stop at once the
bitterness of party and the angry vehe.
mence OF political hostility. Lips that
are still foul win the abuse OF the dead,
and will whiten with remorse for their
injustice, cannot surely repeat The crime
against another, but will be shamed in
TO silence. Even should Mr.. Webster
llnger beyond the election day, even
should he surprise and delight the ma
ton by recovering the peril IN which
he lies, or has lain, ought equally TO as
suage the violent rage of parry. The
hand that could! pen libel, or the
tongue that could speak slander, we
should think would palsy at the shadow
Of Death falling dark across them.
We have had two Presidents to die
in office.-But we have never had
Presidential election TO be ushered in,
as this one promises to be, with The bier
Of n candidate, as it were, borne in pro-
cession to the hustings. Death mas
been at the White House, but never
thus at thel polls. And it comes, il
come it shall, TO cut down one, whom
all acknowledge as the great intellect OF
his country, il not Of the age, and whose
loss if troublous times should arise, wi
