Stealing corn.

--William Freeman was committed to jail yesterday by the Mayor, on failing to give $150 security to appear before the next Grand Jury and answer an indictment for stealing six bags of corn, the property of Capt. Henry C. Cabell, of the Fayette Artillery. The corn is now at the Station-House, and though not as "good as wheat," will be amply sufficient to curtail the privileges of the freeman who surreptitiously converted it to his own use. The accusation against Thos. Oakley for being concerned in its abduction, was continued until the 6 instant.
