The Great Forgery in New York.

The New York H,rd'd of the oath ult. speaks
as follows of the forgery and Huntington the for
ger and fnancier.
There arc many people in this great metropolis
who live in fine honses wear purple and fine linen,
drink Burgundy every day and make their wives
walking advertisements for jewelers. and dry
goods dealers These persons have no property
- they toll not, neither do they spin-but in the
magnfcencc of their establishments they rival
the famous robbcr Of the Arabian Nights who
had two or three acres Of diamonds and precious
metals at his disposal Everybody wonders where
the magnificent Mr.. Snob and the splendid Mrs.
Snob get the money to pay for all their lu1ures
but once in a while there comes grand crash
some Of the lights of Wall street are let in for
half million, and the fHale Of Snob, who has not
saved enough to clog the wheels Of justice is
tour to Sing Sing.
Such seems ro have been the case with the note
broker Huntington, WHO now lies in the Tombs,
awaiting trial for forging notes of hand to the
amount of over half million Of dollars. Hunt
ington was undoubtedly man OF considerable
ability which he used for bad ends lie had the
implicit confidence of many men in the mercantile
world and put his nearest friends in for large
amounts. Perfectly familiar with the manner of
conducting business in Wall street, he ascertained
what notes good houses had out, and duplicated
them without fear Of discovery. a single re-
lapse into the carelessness which, on the part of
others hau caused the success Vi HlS lt-
ined him in moment. il is q solid proof of the
truth of the maxim that honesty is the best policy,
that all great rascals, no matter how able they
may be, always do have their relapses, and are
always discovered.
The career of Huntington has been like 4 dis
play OF fireworks. brilliant but evanescent. For
a little while lie spent money like water. He had
six or eight horsestWo pairs for carriages for
himself and wife and several fast trotters-his
sideboard was brilliant with massiAc plate
lie was great man Of Saratoga, Niagara and
Rocbaway, where his wife had more trunks and
more diamonds than any one else and in town
he kept up two matrimonial establishments, one
regular aud thg other irrcgular-one a Christian
home. the other a Mahonmedan seraglio-onc
according to the laws Of New York and the other
according to the customs Of the MormOns-wtth-
in a few doors of each other, lie was prince
for an hour. People ate at his dinners, drove his
horses. drank his wine, borrowed his money. and
wondered how he got ii all. But the crash came
at last and what are all his former spendors
compared with his present position: lie bought
his uXurios at a tremendousy y high price.
