Acknowledged his guilt.

--John, a starchy little negro, belonging to John B, Davis, was discovered on. Wednesday night last with a large basket in which was secreted three bams. Inquiries on the spot elicited from Jolm the confession that be had bought the bacon from a fellow servant; but he readily confessed in examination yesterday that he had taken them from his master, and accounted for his equivocation when arrested from fear of the position in which he had been caught. With considerable complaisance he received the announcement that he was entitled to 39, well laid on.
