Shop-Lifting. --On Saturday, three negro men went into A. T. Peebles's watch and jewelry establishment, on Fourteenth street, near the Exchange, and pretended to desire to purchase a watch. Mr. Peebles showed them several watches, which they handled considerably, and then declined to purchase, and left the shop. Soon after their departure, Mr. Peebles discovered that they had taken one of his watches, and made pursuit, but did not succeed in coming up with them. Yesterday, however, he had a negro arrested, who, he says, is one of the parties who were in his shop when the watch was stolen. This negro is Soloman, slave of Mrs. Ro. Nelson. If Soloman is guilty, he has been, so far, too wise to admit it, but declares he knows nothing about the watch.
tall interfering with his business and would not go away when frequently warned. The negro was larger than the accused. The Mayor dismissed the case. Jerry Dunnavant was charged. with selling liquor without a license. No witness appeared to substantiate the charge. Policemen stated that accused was an old pauper, from the poor-house, and the complaint had been made against aim by a female pauper with whom he had been on intimate relations, but with whom he had recently had a falling out. This case was also dismissed. Solomon, slave of Mrs. Robert Nelson, and Lewis, slave of McKinney & Dupuy, were charged with stealing a watch from A. T. Peebles. Solomon confessed that he had taken the watch and handed it to Lewis, who carried it off. The confession was extorted from Solomon by Mr. Peebles under a threat that he would thrash him if he did not tell the truth about the watch. The Mayor therefore threw out the confession; but hold on to the negroes for the present.
