A successful attempt was made Friday night to enter, the basement of Rev. Dr. Burrows' church, on Broad street. The motive actuating the thief was a lot of cloth and soldiers' clothing, on which the ladies of the congregation had been at work. After a quantity of the goods had been removed, the base wretch tried to set fire to the church, but did not succeed in injuring the premises.
