Burglary. --Some time between one o'clock and daylight Saturday morning the restaurant on 12th street, between Main and Cary, kept by a free negro named Dick Singleton, was broken into and robbed of a pocket-book containing two hundred and fifty dollars in State bank notes, six or eight dollars in specie, eighteen dollars in greenbacks, and other papers of value to the owner. Entrance was effected through the back door, by cutting out one of the panels, thereby making a hole large enough enough to admit the body of a man. When Singleton opened his front door in the morning he found a bundle of cigars on the floor and a bottle of brandy near by which had been carried there by the thief. The robbery must have been committed about daybreak, as at that time a gentleman sleeping next door was awakened by a noise like some one kicking against a door in the story below, but going down stairs he found everything secure and returned to bed without pursuing his investigations further.
