MONROE EDwARDs.-This man, whose extensive forgeries won for him the uuenvia- ble reputation of being the most expert for ger in the United States, died yesterday morning in the Hospital of the Sing Sing Prison. We stated few days since that he had the consumption, and was not expected to live much longer. He was a man of tal- ents, and if he had devoted himself to an honorable calling, he might have attained to an enviable distinction.

 We are told by a gentleman who returned from Sing Sing last evening, that his death was horrible in the extreme. For three weeks past he has been delirious, and the chaplain, knowing that his end was rapidly approaching. attempted to converse with him, but the wretched culprit gave no heed to him, bu. kep, whistling all the time until he spoke of the forgery, when Edwards denied that he had committed that crime. For an hour and half previous to his death he conceived that he was already dead, and asked the doctor to feel his arm and see if it was not so. The doctor told him that he was not dead, when he doubled up his forefnger, pu, it in his mouth and commenced biting on it, saying that he must be dead, as he had no feeling in it. The remainder of the time he spent in tearing his flesh. and otherwise endeavoring to injure himself.-.E F. Ere. Post.
