Alleged robbery by a drayman.

--On Saturday last, J. P. Noel arrived at Rocketts in one of the steamers, and placed two trunks in the possession of a drayman to carry up town, since which time he has heard nothing of them, and he believes they have been stolen. One of the trunks was blue, with no cover, and very much out of repair; the other was covered with canvass, and considerably worn. The trunks were filled with ladies and gentlemen's clothing, and if the their manages to elude arrest he will have made a pretty good haul.
