Stealing Pies and things.

--Sam Short, slave of Mrs. Elizabeth T. Smith, was arrested and placed in the cage yesterday, for effecting a felonious entrance into his mistress' house on 4th street, on the night of the 25th of February, and stealing therefrom ‘"a basket containing divers cakes and pies, valued at $10."’ The warrant was issued on the oath of a fellow darkey, who is suspected also of being concerned in the abduction of the edibles enumerated.
