A Petersburg in Trouble.

--Thursday evening, a box containing one hundred dollars was stolen from a wagon in Washington City. A man named Williams, who said that he lived at Petersburg, Va., was arrested, but they found nothing on him to show that he committed the robbery. They, however, turned Williams over to the police. Yesterday morning they found the money-box near where the theft was committed.
