Stolen hog.

--Officer Perrin yesterday morning arrested in the Second Market a negro fellow who was offering for sale a live hog, weighing about three hundred pounds. The negro gave his name as Burwell, and says he belongs to Frederick Widemeyer. He had nothing to show how he came by the hog. The case was brought before the Mayor yesterday and was continued, that the owner of the hog might be ascertained.
