HEAVY ROBBERY OF GRoCERrEs.-The gro
Gerry store of Messrs Weisiger Thompson on
Seventh street, was broken open last Monday
night and robbed of a large amount OF goods.
The propre tors locked up the store at o clock
on Monday evening, apd when they returned
at yesterday morning, it was found that the
front door was unlocked. An examination
disclosed the fact that the paddock on the out
side had been wrenched off, and the catch
broken from the stock-lock inside. The rear
door was also found open. The thieves helped
themselves quite literally, taking three hun,
dred and fifty pounds of bacon (hams and
shoulders); two hundred pounds of coffee;
dozen bottles of wine; quantity of whisky ;
n box of cigars; box of soap, and another OF
adamantine candles; several boxes of con-
densed milk; besides three dollars and fifty
cents in silver, and one dollar in fractional
notes. The money drawer was on the coun-
ter, and papers scattered about, inducing the
belief that the thieves became alarmed and
beat hasty retreat. 1t is evident that they
made their exit through the rear door,
CARRYING the goods through an alley leading
into Marshall street. The police on that
"beat" could not have been very vigilant to
let the thieves escape with so much plunder
without detection.

CLOSE SHOOTING BETWEEN policeman AND
A NEGRo.-On Monday night last at 4 late
hour, whilst Policeman r. O'Dwyer stationed
on post No. 3, at the corner of Seventeenth
and Green streets, above the Central Railroad
machine shops, was making his round he met
n negro with a bundle in his hand, and
asked him what he had. The negro held
ont the bundle with one hand, saying,
Here, take it, and with the other presented
a pistol, with which he Immediately fired two
shots, one Of which passed through the cap of
the policeman and the other through the cape
of his overcoat. The policeman, appreciating
his narrow escape, and rejecting that If he
gave the negro any further chance he might
be killed, at once drew his revolver and COM
menced firing. At the second shot the darkey
fell, and uttered n scream, but Immediately
got upon his legs again and ran like quarter
horse, Mr.. O'Dwyer pursuing and discharging
three more shots from his pistol. The fugi-
tive plunged into n ravine and ran towards
Howard's Grove, and succeeded i'll eftectinG
his escape. Had the lamp in the vicinity been
lighted at the time, the negro would not, in
all probability, have ventured so near the
policeman.
