HEAVY RoBBERY.-Lsst night about
eleven O'Clock daring and heavy rob-
berry was perpetratsd at the residence of
0. P. Cobb, Esq, 10 Court street. The
as near as we could learn
them, amid the confusion attendant on
the affair, were as follows: There was an
entertainment consisting of tableaux or
something Of that sort, at Mr.. Cobb's
during the evening, and all the
family were in the lower story,
leaving the upper part of the house
open and uuguarded. About quar-
ter to eleven O'Clock Mr.. Bigley
OF the firm of Bigley, MeIlersh & Co.,
who was q guest at the house, noticed
something peculiar in the actions of
man in the back yard with light in his
hand, and informed Mr.. Cobb OF the
fact. On haiIing him, the party in the
yard proved to be 3 negro man named
Jim, who was in Mr.. Cobb's employ.
in his manner attracted Mr..
Cobb's suspicious, and he Immediately
thought of the unprotected condition of
the upper portion of the house, and of
box containing several hundred dollars
worth OF vaiuables which had been
carelessly left in one of the rooms.
He Immediately went TO see to its
safety, and ON entering the room
in which it had been left, found that
the box was gone. The alarm was
raised forthwith, and Col. Beaumont,
Nuo lives uiASSblg oRPO9ASSi Oh SouAL
street, called in. He took Jim into Gus
tody, and on searching the back yard
found three other negroes concealed, all
of whom were arrested and carried to
the First District station. At writing
nothing has been heard OF the box or its
contents-some $1,000 in bonds and $500
worth Of jewelry-but it viii come TO
light to-day, as the parties arrested were
without doubt the robbers or their &C
complies.
