Classical Larceny.—Professor Horatio Nelson Harrill, a flute teacher, was committed to Prison this morning for stealing $115 worth of Books from the store of Mr. Little. The Books were all of the most valuable description, and were selected with classical taste and judgment. The books were found at his room, and, upon being taken to the Police office, he confessed that he took them. This Flute Professor is a young Englishman, of good education, and insolent deportment, who rails at every thing American in a spirit worthy of Captain Hall, Mrs. Trollope, or even the Rev. Mr. Fidler.
