cured. hicks escaped, but was taken this morning within a

building at the corner of the street, one of the Doctor's waist-
coat's was found. The robbers left a chissel behind them.

a fellow in the passage, who had entered by picking the lock
of the street-door. On seeing Mason he ran off, but the latter

the fellow, taking advantage of the state in which Mason ap-
peared, roared out " Murder ; for God's sake seize him—he is a
madman wants to murder me." The passengers, thinking there
was some truth in this, suffered the thief to escape a considera-
ble distance, but Mason meeting with some of his brother offi-
cers who recognized him, they kept up the pursuit and suc.
ceeded in apprehending the offender.
