On the 17th August last a woman of the name of Rosalie Gabrielle,Jallaquier Pitra, widow , was tried before the Court of AMYX for the department of the Seine et'Oist (Versailles) for the murder of her bus . and, Jacqties Pitra. As it is possible that the details of the trial have already found their way into the Eng. lish papeii, I shall present to you only a brief summary tif the evidence given on that occasion: It appeared that the unfortunate deceased had re. sided in London f.)r several years, during which be had realised a 'considerable sum of money by giving lessons in the French language. He frequented daily a coffee house in the Haymarket, but lodged at the house of hi, sister, a milliner in extensive business, and who, dying, left bins a large sum of money. Ile remained in Linidon for only -a short time after the death of his xis. ter before he took his departure for his native country (Frarice}, with the intention to spend the remainder of hit days in ease and independence. Tempted, however. to enter into certain specuthiOns, be lost the whole of his fortune within a few months after his return to 'Paris. in the mean time he had formed an illicit cr'u. nection with tbe woman at the bar, who was then a dressmaker, and subsequently (namely, on the 21*t of May, 1844).marriid her. The Man was unfortunate the wife was of . it hasty violent temper ; the husband gave himself up to drinking, out of which circumstances' arose frequent quarrels. Some time before his death, Pitra said to one of his friends that be found himielf so unhappy with his wife that he was often tempted to shoot himself. On the Ist March last, about three o'clock in the afternOon, he returned home to dinner, which was com• posed of peas soup and bestial, mashed up with pota toes. When the woman who bad cooked this little meal left the kitchen to serve. it, the prisoner followed her, and said hastily, " Empty it all out; emptlit all." She then left the.roum, and tmt deceased ate of the dishes .with great appetite. In a abort time afterwards he was seized with pain and vomiting in a most alarming r Manner. It was proposed by the senrantanct a neigh. hour to send for a doctor, bat the prisoner refused, say ing her husband's illness was merely indigestion. A female neighbour, at Lloissy, approaching the bed of the sick man, asked him how long be had been ill. 64 Only since I took the soup," replied he • 64 1 am poisoned." 44 How can you say such a thing, M. Pitra?" said the prisoner. On further explanation it appeared that, al though the servant had made it, the with had re.beated the soup. " 'Tis enough," added Le; that is the eery thing." . At six o'clock in the evening a woman of the name of Yincemaille arrived, to whom, the moment he saw her, Pitra said, in the presence of his wife. 64 My dear Midame Pincemaille we must part; sh 6 has poisoned all over r 'He seplitd to nothing said by the, priioner, but once •of Wits said, 44 You unfortunate WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5, 1828. woman ! unfortunate woman !" They had so only child, a boy. whom he recommended with his dying breath to the care of his servant, and not to his wife. About ten o'clock she left the bed chamber. and the servant having come to tell her that her husband could not survive the night, the prisoner said, "1 shall be so happy as to get rid of the beast;" although a few mi. notes before she had expressed a desire to lie by his side. The illness of Pitra increased; and shortly afterwards he expired. The servant having run to acquaint the prisoner with the death of her master, the prisoner asked. 'ails he teeny dead?" " Not yet," replied the servant ; " but, if you wish to see him. alive, come quickly."— She, however, went mit. The servant and Madame Pincemaille only remained with the corpse. The pri soner did not enter the room. The death of her. husband caused her as little un-. easiness . as hi, Obsess. She required that he should be interred the next morning, and proceeded to exhibit a win which the.deceased had made in April, 1826. con. 'stituting her his sole legatee. Her neighbours reminded her that, having since had a child, the law altered the testament (a fact), giving to the infant a portion of his father's property. Then, for the first time. did the prisoner show any feeling. She shed tears, and made a display of deep regret, seeking, by these appearances, 'to remove the effect on her neighbours by t4e.previous indifference and hardness of heart which she had so im prudently manifested. The better to carry on this semblance of affection, she took to her bed on the neat day, the sth of March, and sent for a Dr. Bernel; . to whom she deplored the death of her husband. It was immediately alter his decease ascertained that Pitra had been poisoned ; the prisoner was, consequently, arrested. She made every effort to learn - the nature and the parttculan of the evidence given by the witnesses called before theJogedinstruction. In a conversation with a young man of the name of Lacroix. she had said, speaking of her deceased husband, " He is very happy . in his trate, the great hog I He no longer thinks of his husinest. Suppose I have poisoned the great hog, be enraged me enough to provoke me to it. Besides,' added she, " though I should be found guilty, they can only do to me that which they did to Madame Bonnier, the grocer's wife, who poisoned her husband in the Rue de la Paix; and she was only sentenced .to a year and a day's-imprisonment. If I don't confess they can only serve me the same." To all those strong presumptive facts were added proof that the prisoner bad bad arsenic in her po,ses sion, which she had procured by indirect means. After a long and patient investigation the prisoner. who bad throughout exhibited great presence of mind, was found guilty, and condemned to death. The fatal sentence was pronounced at midnight. The unhappy wretch appealed sobsequently to the Court of Cessation, but her appeal was rejected about the 16th of September. been particular in laying berme you the facts of this extraordinary case, which, as you will hale were purely circumstantial against the prisoner, became' I think in England she:would not hell been convicted; and particularly on account of her condott, sleep My trial and at the pla - ce of categoric's .yesterday... I bad almost lost sight of the wretched woman, al. though determinedto follow up nay inquiries respecting her until her tate was certainly decided—and was yew" terdiy morping, at an early hour, apprised by a fr iend that the execution of the widow.Pisra, and of another murderess (parricide I should .say), would take place in the course of the day at Versailles. Linsiantly start ed for that puce, accompanied by a Gentleman whose acquaintanCe with some of the authorities at Versailles promised to me facilities in obtaining all the necessarj partieUlars of 'the conduct of the condemned. and of the sangu nary scene in which they were to be the prin. cipal actors. • The unhappy companion of Rosalie Paws was a girl of the name of Catherine D'Alcy. who, at the sable assizes, had been convicted of ukurdeting'het own tber by strangulation, Like Pita, she. hack appealed to the Court of Cessation, and her appeal had, in the same manner, been rejected about the middle of September. Owing t.l the long interval, upwards of two monthi, that had el ,peed between their several trials, the Public had almost forgotten every thing respecting tbetint owing to which circumstance. and the suddenness of the order for their execution, which had been sent down to Versailles only the evening belOre, I found very few people yesterday morning assembled round the scaffold On which steed the guillotine, in the market-placi of Versailles, and of these fourteen out of fifteen were fe- males. Perhaps the singularity of the horrid spectacle about to be presented to them, that of two of their own sex being about tp suffer a 'violent and sanguinary death, might have attracted so large a proportion of women; but one would have rather expected a contrary effect, there being something so revolting in the shedding of blood. On recollection. however, the exhibition' of Cruelty and unfeelingness by women, and a saiagide sire to witness the effusion of blood, was no novelty at Versailles. . From the period of their condemnation the conduct of the two prisoners presented a striking contrast. Ro salie Pitra, during her trial. had shown great saxg-frold, but on her return to prison after her conviction, die abandoned herself to despair—protestingincessantlyter innocence—appealing to die infitite of GOD against the judgment by which she had been condemned. Cache- , sine d'Atcy, on the contrary, bad. daring her trial. appeared to be sunk into the most brutal stupor, appa rently, perfectly ignorant of the frightful fate that, awaited her.

On perceiving them, she cried..... " Lhooe they will give five francs to poor Jerome one of them an old man, to whom she pointed W is one of my last s‘ ishes. I am sore they will not refuse me. It is the last request of a dying woman. Farewell once more, Jerome (said she to him); when • yolsa* me arrive here you bad no idea that you would have seen me seatedin this chair." Here (although she still retained perfect posses-iov of her senses, her ner vous excitenree; appeared to increase, and she exclaimed, in a half shriek." Behold the justice of man ! To con. derail' a woman on mere suspicion —such is man's jus tice !" The sisters of charity endeavoured to soothe her. and., presenting a mucifix to her view, reminded her - of the sufferings of opr Saetova, 'shorted her in subinis, sion, end recommended her to place 'her confidence in Gov. " His justice! (cried she) will his justice sieve me for the injustice of man ? wh4t remorse will not the false witnesses be made to feel who have sworn against me? What ! to come, at my time of life, to die" —(here deep feeling almost choaked her 'atterance)--; and she added, in a voice scarcely audible, " to die ea a scaffold!" The executioners were during this rime engaged its arranging heridress, and in tying her hands behind her back. .. You tie me too hard — you hurt me," said she, in a meek voice, to the man engaged - in that shocking duty. "It will only be for a moment," said the fellow: "Alas!" said she, again dropping tears, " I know it well; but why tie meat all?

Here bee grief overwhelmed her. The attendant bed, during this discourse, put upon her head a a bite handkerchief,. which, just as she was about to be led to the coil that was to bear bey to the scaffold, she observed, and egclaisned—".jenu•t have a !deck bandkrrchief—l ought to_ be in black—pray don't.!efuse me that gratification." Her request was coMplrd witk and she was immediately Idled into a apirket Cart, and was followed by the Ladies of Charity 'sudsier Confessor, who, with a crucifix in his hood, took his slit beside her. 'The distance is very shottbowees cre gig' and the marke t -pl ace .

Divine justice will avenge me of human justice Tell it all to my son.' In another moment the plank fell into its horixonial position, the axe descended, and she was no more. • The, cart having been sent back for the prisoner lD'Arcy, she was placed in it. During the whalers( the preparations that preceded this Circumstance she had not uttered a single word, but remained perfectly un moved; the consequence war, that not a tear was shed nor a. sigh uttered for the unhappy wretch, • white as. turd ugliness was increased by thostunid sullen stare with which she regaided tbe crowd. " One would have supposed (as a Efentlempto neer me exclaimed) that the apathy of the, unhappy wretch.badcommunicateditself to the spectat9re A dull silage only prevailed during the long and horrible.preparations for her execution.
