Cunning Fraud.

--Beale McCarthy, a young girl, was arrested by officer Chaikley yesterday for feloniously and fraudulently obtaining one gold watch of the value of $200, from Wm. A. Spott. The watch had been left with Spott for repairs by another girl, and the prisoner being aware of the fact, called at Spott's store in his absence, represented the watch as her property, and took it away.--Miss McCarthy was committed to jail for examination to-day.
