CRIME IN NEW YORK.
The Irving Bank EmbezzIement-Arres
of the DefaulLer and Recovery OF the
MOney-ORIy $4,000 Involved.

rumor obtained considerable currency yes
terday in monetary circles, to the effect that the
Irving Bank, corner OF Warren and Greenwich
streets, had suffered heavily by embezzlement
Upon investigation we learned, from undoubted
authority, that the sum amounted merely to
S45,OOO, one-halt OF which has been already re-
covered, and the friends OF the embezzer have
given bonds for the remainder. young man.
one of The bookkeepers of the bank, and son of
prominent clergyman OF this city, whose name
we withhold from motives of delicacy, has been
arrested and imprisoned He admits his guilt
says he forced his balance-sheet to make up
the deficit, and has returned a part of the
money.
1t will thus be seen that the bank will lose
nothing whatever, and its business will not be
embarrassed IN the least by the affair, which, by
the way, only INJURIES those engaged in it. II is
simply another illustration Of the debasing infu-
ences of ntemperance and demOrallzing associa-
tions. We would have been glad to be silent in
regard to the matter, but the rumorS of the
street were so much worse than the reality that
we feel induced, for the purpose of allayng the
dlstrust aroused Yesterday by the whispered
report, to place the facts automatically before
our readers The guilty party will perhaps be
brought before a proper tribunal, until which
time any further history OF his crime may safely
be postponed.-N. y. Tribune
