tofore noticed the arrest of two young men, one
calling himself Charles Dean, and the other William
B. Emmett who were captured by the watchmen
on the morning of the 10th inst while enjoying
themselves before warm fire, in an unoccupied
house on Main street, owned by the heirs of the
late William M. Fulton. These strangers are now
In the city JAIL where they are confined as suspi-
cious characters, and they both hail from the CITY
of New York, and processes to have spent few
weeks in Baltimore short description of their per.
and what occupations they follow. Dean is spare
made, delicate looking man, dark skin and hair,
about twenty-five years old, and stands about five
feet eight inches. He is very quiet in manner and
not at all disposed to make himself known. Emmett
Is about the same height Of Dean, rather stouter
built light hair and whskers grey eyes, very talka-
tive, and professes to be most respectfully connect
ed in the city Of New York. When taken to prison
they had between them silk and steel bead purse,
with steel slides and tassels eight drawer KEYS Of
various sizes; one silver pencil case; one prayer
book bound in red velvet with gold or plated clasp
and ornaments; one small ivory handle pocket
knife with one blade, and one with six blades; and

bed the name of Sarah Anna lennon or Janson, and
s. Anna lennon or Jsnson. II may be that they
came by these articles in proper manner, and
that they are, as they represent themselves to be-
respectable men, without means, but as the card
case seems to be very valuable one, from the vast
amount of labor bestowed on its manufacture it is
the impression OF the police that they have gotten it
by nocturnal visit by accidentally getting their
hands into the pocket Of some other person. A no.

papers may be Of public service.
JOHN Jackson. This unfortunate Der.
son who met with such shocking death in this
city, on Wednesday afternoon last is said to have
been a most worthy and estimable mankind
hearted and charitable to ALL and dearly beloved by
large circle of friends and acquaintance, to whom
he was greatly endeared by his many virtues He
had been married only about eighteen months, at
the time of his death to an estimable young lady
who parted from him on Wednesday morning full
Of hope and anxiety for his welfare and success
and who expecting his return in short time, TO
the happy home he had but few hours before left
when the sad the maddening news reached her,
that him for whom she would gladly have given
up life, had been suddenly stricken down by death
Who could have looked upon that young, devoted
wife, msddened with grief as she was, ON seeing the
nangled form other husband, after an absence of a
few hours, borne back to her lieless, crushed
inanimate form, without exclaimng from the depths
ofthe heart, '.what shawows we are and what aha
dows we pursue" Terrible as was the death of
poor Jackson, it was but delightful dream com
pared with the agony the excrucating torture that
was thereby visited upon the heart broken wife
whose brightest treasure has been thus suddenly
snaiched from her grasp, never again to be recoy.
cred Poor creature, she need only look for conso-
lation to Him who tenpereth the wind to the shorn
lamb. IS
