Custom-House fraud.

--Eugene A. Kozlay has been arrested in New York, on the charge of committing the recent fraud discovered in the Custom-House in that city. Kozlay was a clerk in the warehousing department of the Custom-House, and had charge of the books of the warehouse where Goodrich & Walker had stored their invoice of silks. Suspicion was directed towards him from the fact that the permit was evidently filled out in his handwriting, slightly disguised, and was written with the exact shade of blue ink that he ordinarily used. There was also a slight mistake in the warehousing book copied into the permit. The prisoner denies the charge, and says that the filling out is a forgery. Mr. Kozlay is a Hungarian, and came here in Kossuth's suite.
