of a quantity of sausage, lard, bacon, beef tongues, &c. Yesterday officer Davis and Capt. James B. Pleasants, of the night watch, received information that Robert Patterson, a white man living over Russell's stable on Wall street, was the thief, and immediately went in search of him. They found him and a woman named Amanda Logana room in the third story over the stable mentioned, and in the room, on search, found the sausage, lard, and most of the stolen articles. As Davis was bringing Patterson down the stairs, the latter jumped out of the 2d story back window and tried to escape by running. Davis followed him out of the window and pursued him and shotlace. He dodged into a back gate. Davis followed him close and arrested him in the boarding house over Mr. George I. Herring's store. He and the woman were locked up in the cage. Patterson has already been twice in the penitentiary, once for larceny and once for shooting a soldier who he alleged was stealing one of his geese.
