The city was excited yesterday by the dis
closure OF great and most successful forgery
committed by Mr.. Henry Saunders, Jr., young
man only IS years of age, who was some months
since employed mainly out of charity as clerk by
Messrs Austen, Wilmerding & Co. auctioneers,
No. 2G William street. He was missed from the
counting.room on Thursday last at little after
noon, and had not since been seen there: but this
excited little apprehension, as 1t was supposed he
had failed to attend through indispositon. On
Saturday, however, Messrs. A., w. s. Co. learned
from one of the banks that their account there
was overdrawn. On examination it was ascer-
tancd that it had been occasloncd by success
full forgery; a close investigation was at once
instituted, and it was ascertaned, as stated in
the American, that forged checks to the amounts
designated had been paid by the following banks
