The young seamp gratefully accepted the offer, and daving the evening: made himself useful in various ways about the store. This morning about four o’clock the boy, who slept in a room adjoining that of his employer, arose and going into Mr. Edwards’ sleeping apartment, rifled his pants of the sum of $150 in greenbacks. Not content with this theft, the young thief proceeded down stairs to the store, where managed to wrench the money drawer from its place and conceal it under his coat. He then left the store, and has not since been seen or heard of. The police are on his track, and it is hardty possible that he will escape.
