DISCOVERY or SroLES GooDs.--Arrsst of three
persons charge Of connection Vith the thsfts.
For some months past, complaint have been made
by merchants and others of the loss of various
goods, and in some instances OF very considerable
amounts, several stores having been entered and
robbed, besides many dwellings,.
We understand that Messrs. Allen and Mocka-
bee of the Auxiliary Guard have arrested three
individuals, charged with being concerned in some
of the robberies above adverted to, to wit Messrs.
w. Naylor, Henry Crogan, and John H. Ray, and
that upon searching the premises OF Mr.. Ray, a
large quantity of stolen goods were found, consist
ing Of tobacco, segars, gater boots, Shoes clocks
pieces of cloth, pantaoons, vests Irish linen, Car
penters tools guns pistols calicos and in fact all
descriptions OF merchandise to the amount of
several hundred dollars, various portions of which
have been identified by parties from whom they
had been stolen.
1t is estimated that from eight to ten thousand
dollars worth OF property OF such descriptions have
been stolen from various persons in Washington
city during the last twelve months, and it Is be-
lieyed that most of the stolen property passed
through the same channel as the goods now found.
There were found in the house of Mr.. Ray, with
whom it ia said Crogan boarded, a bunch Of skele-
ton keys and other implements used by house
breakers and thieves, to the number of twenty or
thirty and the inference is, that very extensive
uuoiucnb nuu uccu CdTficu Ou ny tuc OWHcrb VI
said implements
The parties were examined before Justice Nor
sell and Capt. Birch of the city police; whereupon
Messrs. Crogan and Ray were committed to prison.
Mr.. Nsilor gave bail for his appearance, and will
be examined at p. M. to-day
RIor.-Last night about eleven o'clock, some
Hibernians on Capitol Hill engaged in a free fight
the noise of which was excessively dsagreeable to
the peaceable inhabitants of that part of the city.
The police interrupted their amusements and took
about dozen of them before Justice Hollingshead
who bound them over to appear before him this
afternoon when the case will probably be disposed
of In the course of the fight it appears that Dan
iel OConner and his wife we're severely beaten, as
were Misther Shanks and his lady. The rest got
more kicks than coppers but seemed to think the
fun of the old-fashoned row sufficient compensa-
tion for all their pains.
BURGLARY.--Last night the shoe store of Mr.
Thomas j. Forrest was burgaiously entered by
three persons who set about removing all the valu-
ables in their power. But our vigant Auxiliary
Guard we're on their track, and caught them in
the very act. They were taken in charge, and this
evening will have hearing
