FORGERY OF TEXAS BoNDs.--Important arrest IN
Nsac York.--There has recently been put in circu-
lation in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York,
quantity Of spurious Texas certificates with the
forged signature of the auditor and officers of the
Government so handsomely executed that several
brokers have been victimized An arrest was
made in New York, on Wednesday, which will
probably put stop TO the game, al least for the
present. The Times says:
The accused called at the exchange Office oil
Mr.. James, in Wall street, and offered for sale a
packageof these certificates; but Mr.. James, sus-
pectng something wrong, left the party until he
the broker, the holder of the certificates was
missing. Meanwhile, Gen. Ward, United States
Consul at Panama, accompanied by several Tex
an gentlemen, happened 10 visit the Office of Mr..
James, and while they were scrutinizipg the GER
thcates the applicant came back TO close his bar
gain. The aggregate amount of those he offered
10 sell was about SS000 for which he agreed 10
take 81 300, and would have been paid this
amount by Mr.. James had not the Consul and his
friends pronounced them gross forgery.
When accused the prisoner declared that he
met man in Broadway, who boarded at the Me-
tropolitan Hotel, and desired him 10 negotiate the
certificates and meet him at ihe Hotel in the eve-
ming. The prisoner was brought before the Ma
glstrate at the Halls of Justice but he refused 10
give his name say anything concerning his
place Of residence or business. He had pre-
viously given the name of G. A. Keene and under
that cognomen the Justice committed him.

HON. MOSES NORRIS.

The short but serious illness of this gentle
man, which excited the apprehensions and fears
of all of his friends on Wednesday, terminated
fatally on Thursday evening, at ten o'clock.
The suddenness of the attack, and the brief
struggle which nature made with the disease
rsnder it an occasion of more than ordinary
solemnity. 1t is, however, source of conso-
lation to his survivors, to know that he was
cheered in the last hours of his life by the
affectionate attentions of his nearest relatives,
that the hand of friendship ministered to his
wants, and closed his eyes.
Moses Norris, jr, entered Congress as a
representative from New Hampshire, in the
year lS43, and remained in that capacity until
the year, l847. His course in the House, his
strict attention to the business of his constitu-
ency, and his devoted adherence to the prin-
ciples of the Democratic party met with the ap-
proval ofthe legislature of his native State, who,
in the year ls49, elevated him to the Senate
Of the United States In this exalted position
his integrity, and his industry, his capacity,
and his unwavering devotion to his principles
gained for him the esteem of his :ompeers.
He died in harness, respected by all who
knew him, and henored by those to whom his
merits and his worth had endeared him. His
remains, we understand, viii be conveyed to
his native New Hampshire for burial, attended
by a joint committee Of the two Houses of
Congress, and by his mourning friends, who
watched over his last hours .
In further testimony of their regard, the two
Houses adjourned, after the adoption of the
usual resolutions of respect

1NTERCHANGEs OF KINDNESS be-
TWEEN THE NORTH AND THE
SOUTH.


SOUTH.
The following dispatch shows that charity is
not bounded by geographical lines and that
philanthropy knows no latitudes or longitudes
in its diffusive and pervading bene6cence:
"NEw ORLEANS, Jan. 8, l855.-The How.
ard Association Of this city voted today the
sum Of two thousand dollars for the benefit of
the poor Of New York"
This is, as it we're, but the return Of a loan
it is but the reciprocity of kindness and charity.
1t will be remembered that when New Orleans
was suffering from the fearful ravages Of the
pestilence, summer before last, New York con-
tributed literally Of her means TO alleviate the
miseries Of the poor, as she did during the
past summer for the relief of other Southern
cities which were desolated by the same dread
ful scourge-the yellow fever.
Such friendly interchange5 contrast pleas
antlY with the sectional ordinations and re-
examinations that occur with melancholy fire.
quency between the Northern and Southern
portions of the Confederacy, and tend to show
that, despite the acrimony sometimes displayed,
there is solid substratum of kindness and
brotherly feeling beneath ruf1ed and agitated
surface.
Judging from the accounts that reach us in
the New York papers, never before, in this
country, was there so much suffering among
the laboring classes as now exists in that great
city, and never was relief more opportune than
that afforded by the Howard Association OF
New Orleans.
The working men, thrown out Of employ
ment, occupy their time in holding excited
meetings and in listening to inaammatory ha-
rangues. The burden of their complaints is the
want Of work and the want Of bread. Such q
dreadful condition Of things always draws out
with repulsive and alarming dstinctness the
worst qualities Of man, ingratitude to Provi
dence, disaffection towards Government, dis
obedience to authorities, and envy and hatred
OF the rich There is something ominous and
lmenaeing in the inscriptions on the banners
used by the two thousand discontented and
desperate working men who assembled in the
Pars- on Wednesday last. These inscriptions
were-a,VE WANT WORK, AND ausr HAVE IT.

THE JUDICIARY REFORM.

We furnish, this morning, for the information
Of our readers, the bill for the reform of the ju
dicial system Of the United States, as reported
from the Senate committee by Hon. A. P. But
Ter. 1t will be recollected by our readers that,
on the 18th of May last Judge Douglas pre-
sented a substitute, by way Of amendment, to
the bill. The two measures of reform are now
before the Senate, and are engrossing much Of
its time and attention. We will insert the SUBJ
stitute in our issue Of tomorrow, and reserve
for some future time our comments on the rel
ative merits of the two propositions. Mean
time, we would say, that the necessity for some
reform, and the general Importance Of the sub
ject, entities it to the deliberation and full in.
yestgation which it has and will secure.
Washington sentinel., 1855-01-13

ment to the wisdom and prudeuce.of the pres
ent Cabinet, it is evident that Santa Anna
takes his measures, in case of an eventualty,
which his well-know recklessess would perhaps
seek after, was he not kept busy at home by
the insubordination Of the people, and in gath
ering, what he is so much in want Of the nerve
Of war-money. However, it is ft and proper to
notice the feelings Of our neighbors towards us.
The time comes to nations, as to individuals,
when all accounts, old and new, are to be bal
anced When that day comes, we will not for
get the kind wishes of our neighbor.

1LLNEss OF JOHN y. MASON.

Letters which reached this city yesterday, (by
the Baltic,) announce the serious illness Of
Judge Mason, our Minister to France. We
learn that he was suddenly attacked by par
alysis, which left him in a critical condition.
This intelligence, which has caused us more
than common sorrow, will awaken general
regret throughout the country, for no one en-
Joys more universal and better deserved
popularity than the distinguished Minister to
France. We sincerely hope that the next news
will inform US of his complete restoration to
health
