Arrest of Thieves.

Two thieves, one named Morton and the
other Brown, were arrested at Lawrence,
Mass last week, by Marshal Turkey Of Bos-
ton, assisted by several others of the Boston
police. The rogues were attempting to rob
the Counting Room of the Essex Manufactur.
ing Company. They had been overheard some
weeks before, in Boston, laying their plans,
and on the night they had designated for the
attempt, Turkey and his posse went to Law
renee, and secreted themselves in the cellar
and around the building. The robbers entered
the building, and were attempting to open the
safe, when, alarmed by the approach of the
officers, they attempted to escape, but were
seized on the outside and secured, after des-
perate struggle, in which Morton was severely
injured Two accomplices, who were on the
outside of the building, made their escape.

Of two sailors, who we're killed on shore
