NEW YORK RAscALITIEs.
Arrest of Forger-An Express Cler
Changes HIS Base. w

George Gladwin, aged twenty mine, and o
native of Connecticut, has been arrested in
New Haven, charged with forging an indorse-
ment on stolen draft on Trowbridge 4 Sons,
Of New Haven, for 81, 900. He paid for some
jewelry with the draft, and received the bal
ance in cash. He also forged the name Of
Aaron Smith, and by the forgery he obtained
possession Of over 5000, 900 in bonds Of the
TifHn and Fort Wayne Railroad at the St.
Nicholas Hotel, after which he decamped.
The thief is In the Tombs at New York
The bonds were recovered.
The New York Commercial says:
The latest sensation is n defalcation BY one
Of the employees Of an extensive express
company. He has had charge of q certain
branch Of the business-the principal re-
ceivership-for some years, and was always
considered very correct In all his transac-
tions. His salary was good, and his family
not large, so that he could live very COM
fortably upon his earnings. But he sought
to bo ''fast, and not satisfied with pursuing
On honest course, permitted some of the
money which passed through his hands to
stick to his fingers. He might have evaded
detection for some time to come, as his ac-
counts always appeared regular; but fearing,
perhaps, that investigation would be madc
into his affairs in consequence Of the crashes
in Wall street, he concluded to effect
change Of base, and sent q note to the Off
GERS Of the company, stating that In conse-
quence of little arrangement in his domes-
tic affairs he wished to resign his position.
He did not wait to have his resignation &C.
cepted, nor TO take an atfectionate farewell
of his fellow clerks, but made tracks for
parts unknown at tho present-perhaps to
that asylum for thieves, assassins, and other
scoundrels, Canada-where the extradition Of
criminal Is seldom thought Of.
The officers Of the company ''smelt mice, i"
and proceeded TO examine the books Of their
late employee. A very brief investigation
reveals the fact that the amount is large, but
how great cannot be now stated.
Another employee Of the same company
has decamped, and II has been found that he
has been in the habit Of sponging on the sta
tionery, which he was employed to buy.

The Illness Of Governor Brough-In-
teresting Explanation by Surgeon
General Barr, Of Ohio.

The illness Of Governor BRoUGH has been
Of very singular character. Tho following
letter from Surgeon General BARR to Secre-
tary STANTON makes an interesting state
ment Of the case:
Hon. 3. NJ Stanton, Secretary Of War, Wash
fngton city:
siR: From your kilograms Judge that you
have felt much interest in the case Of Gov.
Brough, and much anxiety for his recovery.
1 have, therefore, taken the liberty to ex-
plain his condition a little more fully than
can do by telegraph. To be brief, in the
first place he had been much broken down
by over-labor and anxiety since the death Of
President Lincoln.
About Eve or six weeks since he slightly
injured his foot by stepping on small peb-
BILE one evening, an injury which he sup
posed to be simply bruise or sprain of the
foot, and TO rest that foot walked about for
a week after, leaning heavily on q cane,
which produced the same condition In his
left hand. Violent Inflammation Of the peri.
osteum and entire cellular structure Of both
hand and foot followed with phagedenic
sloughing and gangrene Of soft structure,
which was followed with much irritative fever
and deterum, death Of some Of the bones ol
the toes, and also frequent hemorrhages and
sloughing Of small arteries and enormous alb
scesses in different parts of the limbs and
body. He was in his home in Cleveland at
the time Of the most violent onset Of the
| attack.
Not apprehending so serious q matter, ]
had, three days before he telegraphed me Ia
see him, advised him to go home and rest,
and nurse his sores. Immediately on seeing
him the first time, on consultation with his
family physician, advised free, deep, nu.
merous incisions in his hand and foot. These
gave him great relief, but, owing to the con-
dition Of his system and the virulency Of the
attack, much sloughing and frequent hemor'
rhages followed and, as suppose, by alb
sorption Of morbid material through the
lymphatics, or from great prostration and
poverty of blood, followed these terrible alb.
scesses.
By the most perfect ventilation Of hit
apartments, diligent use Of autiseptics, with
free use Of wines and iron, with nutritious
diet, have been able TO keep life in him
To-day the sloughing process, for the second
time, seems to be arrested at all points, and
the process of granulation and suppuratior
seems fairly commenced, and his general con
dition as favorable and comfortable as coult
be expected.
Very respectfully, your ob't sery't,
| r. N. BARR.

The Commissioner for the Eastern Dist rict
of Arkansas reports for the month Of July no
increase in the number of rations issued to
the destitute since his last report.
He says, in order to guard the freedmen
from oppression and abuse, he has sent two
companies of infantry to Madison, on the 81.
Francis river, and two companies to Laconia,
those two localities being the centre of a
community opposed to the freedmen.
