MORE FRAUDS. .- By the following from the Tribune of last week. it appears that the Wall street frauds had not all been discovered.
 The fourteen thousand dollars wa al- luded to yesterday as having been stolen fiom the safe of A. Belmont was return ed this morning through the post office in blank envelop, addressed Augustus Belmont, No 76 Beave, st., New York. , Suspicion had been attracted yesterday to the cashier of Mr. Belmont. Mr. Paul, by various circumstances, and he was ar. rested when lie made a full confession. and was committed. He stated that his cash accounts were deficien. by reason of losses in stock speculations, and that this money was to supply the deGciency.- About $20o in gold and small notes ta- ken with the larger notes. was not re- turned. He had been long with Mir. B. and enjoyed his fullest confidence.
 The f,aud was co mmitted by abstract ing from the deposit u make in bank. of WUlCu hC udu CHWSCs N"tiOuS SuuS 1H bank notes and gold. as his needs requi> red. The checks to be deposited could not be thus used without detection, in consequence of stamp placed upon them. The amount entered in the bank book by the bank teller. of course disa> greed with entry in the check book. but it appears the two boz ks were never com pared. and the discrepancy escaped dis covery. Mr. Paul was in the habit of keeping the bank book locked up con stantly. but this was looked upon as one of hts mslhodical ways. Such was the extreme confidence reposed in Mr Paul that no one thought of examining the bank book at the monthly settlements 10 see if the balance agreed with the hal. ance shown by the check book. Mir. Paul remains in custody. but there is much doubt entertained if he can be pro. ceeded against c,iminally. He has since been released.
