Forgery by a BanI. Bookkeeper.

LOUISVILLE, February 29.-It has be-
come known here to-day that Chas. J.
Brent, bookkeeper at the Falls City Tol.
iaco bank committed a forgery last Thurs.
day, but as he sent n telegram from Gin
cinnati on.that day to friend here that
he had gotten married by clipping with q
well known Louisville belle, his absence
excited no suspicion. The lady was in
Frankfort at the time and therefore the
marriage report was believed. To-day
the bank officers discovered that
Brent had clipped regularly
made out check from the bank check
book, filled it for $4,000, and written
the name Of the Merchants Bank Of New
York as the one who wished to draw. on
this check. Brent presented II TO the
Kentucky National Bank Of Louisville
for collection. In return the teller hand
ed him S., 400 in cash and the balance in
a check against his own bank. Brent
had been considered an excellent young
man and his fall has produced much

THE POSTAL QUESTION 1t is an.
nounccd that the Senate PostolIice Com
mittee finds that the Department loses
$S,OOOOOO a year on second-class mail
matter, which includes all newspapers
and'Other periodicals sent to regular sub
scribcrs, and that the object Of their
consideration just now is an increase
Of this class OF postage and de-
crease Of letter postage. We are
inclined to doubt the correctness Of this
report. There Is no dissatisfaction with
the present rates Of letter postage, and,
as the postage on periodicals to regular
subscribers is now generally borne by
the publishers, an increase Of second
class rates would fall on comparatively a
small part OF the public.
What the people are complaining OF is
the law doubling the postage on third
class mail matter, which it was expected
that the present Congress would at once
repeal, but which the Senate Postofiice
Committee keeps in force. Let us have
report on that subject at once, -

WASHINGTON, February 90. - The
President sent the following special mes.
sage to Congress to-day:
" EXECUTIVE MANSION, February %.
T6he Senate and Housc Of Representatives,:
Hay before you here communication
from the Secretary Of the Interior, dated
the 26th inst, upon the subject Of the de-
ficiency Of supplies at the Red Cloud In
dian Agency, Nebraska. This matter
has been already presented to you by the
Secretary, and the House of Representa-
tives have requested an investigation, by
a military officer, Of the cause OF this
deficiency. l have taken proper steps
to comply with the request Of the
House, but the present need Of supplies
Is not disputed. A prolonged delay in
supplying these Indians will cause
great distress and be likely to provoke
raids upon white settlers, and possibly
lead TO a general outbreak Of hostilities.
I Therefore deem it proper to invite
your attention to the importance Of early
and favorable action on the estimates
heretofore and herewith submitted. These
estimates and the views Of the Secreta-
ry in regard 10 this emergency meet
with my full concurrence, and recon-
mend that the appropriations asked for
be made at the earliest day practicable.
Signed. U. S. GRANT.

The Democracy atS Sea Oh the
Finances.

Our dispatches. this morning announce
the inability Of the Democratic Caucus
Committee to agree upon ilnanclai
policy. Up to yesterday there was
strong talk that the so.cHlled Payne bill
published in the ISrELLIoENcER Of the
9th of January last) would be adopted
a, , compromisc measure. This bill,
while il provided for repeal Of the act
Of the l9ll Of January, 1875, fixing the
lat of January, 1879, as the date for re-
sulning specie payments, was neverthe.
less regarded as II conservative measure
and one that would steadily work TO-
wards specie resumption, although ap.
proaching 1t gradually. Its main fea;
turcs were (l) that it obliged every Ma.
tional Bank to set aside annually (cOm.
mrncing July lst next) per cent OF its
circulation, out Of its coin interest,", as an
ultimate resumption fund, said coin how
ever to count in meantime, rs a part OF
ils reserve now required by law. Next
it obliged the Secretary of the Treasury
in like manner to set aside 5 per cent in
coin Of the outstanding obligations OF
the Government, with the proviso that
said coin should be counted as part Of
the Sinking Fund for the purchase Of
bonds and the gradual cxtinguishment Of
the bonded debt.
It was said at the time this bill was pro-
posed, in January, that it would bring
shout resumption OF specie payments in
.i1 and half years. Those OF the DEM
ocracy in Congress who favored its adop-
ton as compromise measure, proposed
to amend it by reducing the annual re-
serve OF the National Banks, and Of the
Secretary of the Treasury, to three per
cent instead Of five, which would, Of
course, have heightened the timeio re-
sumption 10 over eight years.
Now that the time for Presidential
nomination is drawing near, there will be
increased curiosity to see what measure
the Democracy will adopt in lieu Of this
bill.

Snrgison, while riding in the Mardi Gras
procession yesterday, was thrown from
his horse on Main street, near 10th. The
animal fell upon him and hurt him quite
severely. We understand that the acci-

frightened at the "dour balls" with which
he was pelted by the citizens.
