CITY INTELLIGENCE.

RoBBERY.-Night before last. the iewelry store
and dwelling of Charles Mattfeldt, No. 52l West
Baltimore street, was entered and robbed of a sum
of money, in gold and silver coins, amounting to
about $40 The burglar, it is conjectured, must
have stealthily entered the premises through an
alley adjoining the house the west side, and
while the family were at supper concealed himself
under bed in one of the chambers on the second
floor. Before hiding himself he took the precau-
ton to take the caps off of revolver which was
hanging up against the wall in Mr.. Mattfeldts bed
room. About 1019 o'clock the family retired to
rest, and they were sound asleep the rob-
Der issued forth from his place of concealment and
took from the pantaloons of Mr.. Mattfeldt all the
money they contained-about $40 He then pro-
ceeded to unlock q ''strong box" containing some
$500 in notes and con with a bunch of KEYS he
had distracted from the pantaleons pocket, which
were left lying across the bed. The noise made in
opening the box aroused Mrs. Mattfeldt, who by
the light of lamp left burning on the mantei-
piece, at glance what was going on. She
Immediately cried out that thief was in the house
and alarmed the whole house. Her husband sprang
out of bed seized his revolver, and tried fire it
at the retreating robber but it would not 90 off,
By his forethought the thief saved his life. The
robber made good his escape by running out the
back way and jumping over fence into German
street.
Notwithstanding during Wednesday night
the shoe store of Mr. Peter Cramp, Dallas street
near Lancaster street, broken into and robbed
of boots and shoes the value of $500. The thieves
effected an entrance by forcing open the front shut
ter. Small robberies becoming of almost
nightly occurrence, and the police should be more
vigiant.
THE FIRE AT ELLrcorr's M1LLs.-About ten o. 'cloc /
last night telegraphic despatch received from
Eicott's Mills soliciting the aid of our tremen ant
apparatus, in extinguishing disastrous fire thel

stating that the flames were pretty we'll subdued
and that no assistance was required.
