Robbery at the Exchange Hotel.

--Mr. Weith's room, at the Exchange, was entered through the window on Monday night last and robbed of about eleven hundred and seventy-nine dollars in money. Being mostly notes on Southern banks, they were easily identified, and yesterday a man named William Preston Knuckles was arrested while engaged in trying to exchange them at a broker's office. The thief, in leaving the room, passed out as he came in, and left the window hoisted after him. He will be examined before the Mayor this morning.
