A Black Burglar.
--About 2 o'clock yesterday morning, while watchmen Franklin and Edwards were making their rounds, they observed a light in the house of John Munn, on Main street, between 22d and 23d, and on closer inspection discovered a negro man behind the bar, making a general examination of articles.
After watching him some time, the officers opened the door, whereupon the negro hastily retreated through a window, leaving his cap behind.
The proprietor of the house subsequently captured a negro named Cyrus, the property of Jno. Taliaferro, and the testimony against him was sufficient to justify the Mayor in remanding him for trial before the Hustings Court.
The negro effected an entrance into the house by forcing open a window.
The amount of his plunder was 150 coppers.
