On Tuesday evening, Mr. Henry Buck, a retailer m th.- upper part or the city, came down to the Bay and effected several large purchases of supplies for lils store. He travelled around to several of the large houses a- d ordered his pur chaves to be packed up, In readiness to be called for by his dray. This was all done about dusk, between 5 and 6 o'clock, and soon after Mr. Buck left for up town. Sbohly after Mr. Buck had le t, a dray Stoppel in front of the store or Messrs. Wagener A MouBees, and a colored man jumping OUT, asked 1* Mr. Buck had purchased anything there. This was answered lu the affirmative, and the gruff drayman said he had been sent Tor them. Everything went as naturally as possible, and, without notici-g the man or the number.of the dray license, the goods were delivered, to-wit: three bags of shot, Nos. 6, 7 and 8, one box of scap, on -pound bars,' and two pounds of cloves. Btsidts the goods, orders were given to the draymaD, as Mr. Buck had directed, for goods bought at tbe other houses. The dray with Ita mysterious dtiver left, and, following its orders, called Sr. t at the es? tai? lshment of T. M. Cater and made a handsome raise or t- n barns, which had been bought by Mr. Bock, and which were ready at a moment's notice to be delivered to bis dray. Keeping on the dray next arrived at Messrs. Steff-n', Werner A Ducker's, and handing In the order, a keg of but? ter, a half-barrel of bacon strips, a dozen brooms and a barrel of potatoes, marked H. B., were tnmbled out in a hurry and placed upon the dray. Still further on, the driver halted his team In front or Mr. J. S. Schlrmer's, and hln'ing the talismanic name, a tierce of middling rice was quickly rolled ont and placed on the d ay. Amazed at this windfall, the dray with Its driver disappeared in the railing shades or night, and has not since been heard from. Yesterday morning, Mr. Buck sent around for his goods, and the my&tiOeation or the parties con' cerned can better be imagined than described, lt was some time before the true state of the case was understood, but the absence cf the goods and the explanations following at each store, proved that a cool and systematic robbery bad been effected, it was evident that the party bad watched Mr. B. during his purchases, and went to Messrs. Wagener A MonBees's SB soon as he left. The orders given him may have suggested the following np or the trick and extending tbe robbery. The matter was reported at once to the Detective office, but so rar no trace has been dis. covered OJ the rascally drayman.
