Mail Robbery.—We understand that the mail between Canterbury and Windham, in this State, was lately broken open, and notes, checks and money to the amount of about $5000 taken from it. Suspicion rested on a young man of the name of Oliver Sherman, aged 19, who was employed in carrying the mail from Canterbury to Windham. He was arrested and a part of the money found deposited in a tin box, in the barn yard, near his residence. He was taken before a magistrate, when he confessed that he had opened the mail four different times from the 14th of June to the 26th July. He had taken from the mail two quarterly remittances to the General Post Office. He is now confined in Brooklyn Jail, where he will await his trial at the United States Court at Hartford, the 17th of September.—Middletown, Ct. paper.
