Mr. Roma, of Limehoust, has, agteeably to the call made upou him, furnished the following statement : " number of contradictory statements having appeared respecting Hussey's confession; it has been judged advisable to give, in an authentic shape, the whole of what really passed from his lips in his cell lon the morning of his execution. It must be admit ted that the situation in which I was placed with re spect to this wretched man, was one of great dilS• culty, and of peculiar delicacy. I had been requested by a number of respectable persons to go down to Maidstone. He had himself strongly urged me to see him. I was sensible, that if any confession ac ceptable to the people at large, and satisfactory to the inhabitants of Greenwich in paricular, could be made, much would depend upon the manner in which the conversation was conducted, and the ques tions were put on my part. That there was some thing which burdened and troubled his mind, 1 had every reason to conclude, from what I discovered at my first interview wi;h him on the day (Sunday) pee- 1 vious to his execution. I went, for the first time, sc- 1 companied by the Chaplain and jailer of the prison. When the humane and worthy clergyman had con- I eluded the pra y ers, and reading a sermon, he and the jailer retired, leaving me alone with the prisoner. l in the course of a long and interesting conversation,) chiefly on religious topics, I saw enough to give force and strength to the conviction, that if he were aot the actual perpetrator of the horrid deed, he was possessed of that which would be of the utmost im portancc to have communicated to the public. I had recourse to every means of persuasion : I pressed dis closure as a matter of religious duty—as one of per sonal favour ; but they had no avail ; and I saw the time • as not yet arrived in which I should succeed . in carrying my point. One observation which he made, in reference to the murder, was remarkable, and heightened extremely all my anxieties on the subject, What good will it do for me to disclose any thing I know of the murder, now I am going to suffer for it ? The secret had better die with me. You must not—must not press me further. lam innocent of it !' In the course of this day I was fre quently with him, but in company with the chaplain and jailer. On the Monday morning we settled with him to administer the Sacrament of the LORD'S Sup per at an early hour. On some person coming into the cell, and entering into conversation, he told me he had slept little in the night, and that something so troubled him, that he could not compose himself to rest. It had a reference to the Sacrament, for which he thought hi:nself not duly prepared, though he said he waim Charity with all men, and had made,lie hoped, his peace with that Goo before whom he was shortly to be summoned. I thought it might now be pro 'lductive of good, if, after having shortly explained the nature, and pressed the importance, of this duty, enjoined by his dying SAVIOUR, I was to avail my self of the opportunity of urging him to disclose the state yf his mind, and make a frank confession of .my thing which either interrupted his peace or trot bled his conscience. The words, as far as I can te- 1 ,6 collect, in which I addressed him, were theses— And now, Hussey, before , we communicate, and le this-Sacrament to our comforto request you to declare as a dying man, for the satisfaction of the , public at large, and of the inhabitants of Greenwich in particular, did you or did you not perpetrate this horrid murder? or, if you did not, do you know who did? Tell me as a matter of personal favour.' His answer was, ' As . GOD is my judge, and you are my witnesses, these uplifted hands were never stained - with the blood of Mr. Bird or his servant: He was now on his knees, and giving me a keen and expres. sive look, he added, in a tone scarcely audible I know—but—more presently !' " After the Sacrament had been administered, which was done by the Rev. Mr. Argles, with great solemnity, the chaplain and jailer took their leave, and left me alone with him. We were together up wards of an hour. Immediately as the door of tl.e cell was closed, I entered into a religious conversation with him---41i4coared on the state of the soul after death, on a future judgment, and on such other to pics as were calculated to affect his heart, and to Fro duce within him true repentance beibre Goo, and faith in the LORD Jesus Ciintsr! I thought that my endeavours seemed now to be pre-eminently sue .cessful. Hussey himself said that this was the hap piest moment he had yet experienced. I seized the favourable symptom, for 1 saw that the. heart was disposed to be communicative. After exhausting al• most every other topic of address, I descanted upon the comfort of possessing a true friend to whom we could unbosom our heart, and reveal our sorrows. ' You,' said he, ' are that friend that I ought to coif- cell nothing from ; I never can make you any return for all your goodness to me.' ' Yes,' Hussey : there's one return which you can, if you will, make; it will be a sufficient reward; tell me all you know!' He cast a look at the door, and listened for• a moment; and then began to address me in the following words, 'to which I have strictly adhered, giving the name. tive, as far as my recollection will enable me, in the very same language in which it was related. The scene was a melting one; and he was occasionally so agonized, as to be obliged to take a little breath, and give vent to the feelings with which he was agita • There was a moment, indeed, in which I almost de spaired of his being able to proceed, such was dm difficulty he experienced in embodying in language the horrid narrative : - HUSSEY'S CONFESSION TO MR. RUDGE, IN HIS CELL. u All along have I resolved never even to my dearest I. bons to divulge the secret, but to let it die with me. Trerrisil• ter staggered my resolution, but I got over the &Kathy. las not the murderer, but I planned and instigated the robbay-7 The At ismerr gives me the power to declare this, and to ay, des in the blood of Mr. Bird, his servant, or any one else, my Loses were never imbrued. A man of the name of A with one B did it. We had accientally met at Greenwich, and we became inti mate with each other. We had learned that Mr. Bird was very fah, and that he sometimes wan to London to receive large sums of money. It happened the same day as I was sitting with A and drinking st the Tiger, we observed him sitting in one of his rooms at a table, whereon was a good deal of geld, and a number of what we thought were banknotes. I observed this .would be a fine job. This led to something further being said, ii..d I proposed the robbery, saying, let us meet this evening, anal we will see what can be done. It happened, however, that seething was attempted that night, nor was any thintfulally set. alai upon, we not being synod as to the parts we *auk pike • rt the rot4ey, . We iegatl so; be aim* t Weilk after an my adult: sus, that We shot& try that very evening, anti that I had pi welded sham:der to opels the door with. We wont all three, about half-past eleven; but finding no anetiel *as re* turned to our knocking, and as there was a great many people pawing and reputing, we became disheartened ; and recollecting what my washerwoman had said about Mr. Bird'searly hours, we all agreed to meet In the path at a Cettiiiii spot ; and to go from thence to Mr. Bird's house, which we accordingly did, be tween sight and nine of the evening of the murder. The plan was this :—lt was to knock at the front-door, and B to get over, or break open the tide door, and to proceed round to the ' back window. While this was doing, A was to engage the se,.. 'ant in eonverution, until such time as he found B bad got in. I understood afterwards B had great difficulty in doing It, but he at last did, when A immediately knocked down and kMed the servant with a ma/let he had provided himself with, and B rushed through the passage, and strangled Mr. Bird, whom be soon did for with the hammer I bad given him. Whife this was going on, I was standing out close to the Tiger's Head, and was to whistle It I saw any one was coming, which I did twice, is there were two,persoos that passed—but as the night was very foggy, and it was a little before eight in the evening, they seemed to take no notice of the light of the candle which the servant had in her hand at Mr. Bird's door. I kept watch for about twenty minutes, and thinking them a long time, and that they might be discovered, I crossed the street, and gently tapped a: the door. No one answered, nor did I hear any noise. Thinking this strange, I went to the side door, and tried to get in there, but Ibund it quite fast. I then returned to the (rent die , but could nsit van it. I knocked again, and was at hat tat in. I forget now by which of the two, but be said, " We were at the top of the Mine, looking over what we had found, and you alarmed us." I went in, and in going up stairs, stumbled over the body of the servant, which we then moved out of our way. I was shocked to learn from them the fate of Mr. Bird and the maid servant but B said It could not be helped, as they found them (and particularly the old man) so resolute. After being In the house about five minutes, It was agreed that I should go out, and in ten minutes after they both came to me, I was then ln the middle of the street, nearly opposite to Mr. Bird's house, and it was so dark that no one could see me. We now went into the park, and by the light from a dark lanthern, which A had brought with him, we berm dividing the property, which was tied up in a sheet. There were a great many articles, but the smallest part fell to my lot. They said that in the bureau a great many guineas were found, whici it was agreed they should have, and I the bank notes, and watches, Ike. We then sepa rated, and I went and changed myself. When I had done this I came down privately, and went to a pond Dear Vansittart's. place, where I threw in bath the mallet and liammer, which bad been tied up in my bundle, and which the other two men requested me to take with me. I met A and B only once or twice afterwards. Their ship waist the*** of the murders about to sail for the Bast Indies, and in going to look after them about four or live days afterwards. I learned that the ship was gone. This was on the litb or 12th of February last." The above is, to the best of my recollection, a cor rect statement. (Signed) . Jamas ALTDQZ. Limehouse, lids August, 1818. Immediately after the execution, the Rev. Mr. Ruacie transmitted copies of Hussey's confession to Lord Sinuiitrut and to the other authorities, that steps might be taken to ascertain how far his decla ratroq attributing the guilt of murder to others might be relied on; and that. if true, speedy measures might adopted. by stsdiag 'such proper instructions abroad, as would lead to the apprehension of the crir The names of the two men are not men tioned, as their public designation thus early might frustrate their seizure. The sa e praiseworthy motive induced the Rev. Mr. Rust to withhold. for a few days, the above statement from publication. Mr. SMITH, a Magistrate at Greenwich, has as sumed to himself the arduous task of ascertataing, by inquiry at the Docks, and eAamining various ships registers, whether the men named by Hussy ac tually sailed from England for the East Indies, or any other destination, shortly after the murders. The following are the letters written by M. Rudge to Hussey, while in prison, aad which produced the desired impression upon him, as stated in his confession: TO CHARLES MDSSEY,MAIDSTONE GAOL, MAIDSTONE. • 0 Limehouse, July 24, 1818. 4 Charles Ilutazy—The period approaches in which you are to be tried on a charge of baying been concerned in the murders of Mr. Bird and his housekeeper. his my present intention to visit you in Alaidstone Gaol on Monday; but as it is possible that I may be prevented, on account of my numerous prelims airmail engagemeats, I am anxious to write a few words to you, to thew the interest which I take in what concerns your tempo ral and spiritual situation. You will recollect the circumstance of my having visited you, when iu eoninement in one of our London Prisons. I was pleased with the candour with which you opened your mind, and asserted your innocence; and I am bound to believe that what you stated to me was the troth. I c.une to you from no vain curiosity, or from any desire to ones' tire. you on paints which are between you and your Goo ; but • simply and sincerely to offer you my advice, and suggest the course of conduit which I was anxious for you to adopt, during the long pericd of your confinement in prison. I hope you have adopted my advice literally, and hare derived strength and mat fort f.ons the COMO of leligiali, discipline Upon which I strongly in gee( you to enter. As to your temporal situation, allow me to suggest, as a friend, what appears important for your most serious cussideration. I think you told nut yoe should take.no step to make chair your innocence. My advice, on the contrary, is that you take every step to prove it; for, to deal fairly by you, you cannot but be sensible that appearances are against you, and that therefore it is your duty to meet by facts on your trial the state ments which will be preferred by those who conduct the prose 'cution against you. Weigh the point seriously in your mind, and give to yourself no cause to weep bitterly for having ne glected the advice which I have thus kindly tendered to you.— As to your spiritual situation, I speak with the same kindness, though with less reserve. You avowed to me. that though your hands had never been stained with the blood of a brother—you bad, notwithstanding, been guilty of many offences. For, the same, repent--haartily repent. Think of tie mercy and good ness of GOD, and blush and weep for your ingratitude and re bellion. Give no sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eye lids, till you have made your peace with hint. Remember, that all dissimulation with him is of no avail ; that if you die with one sin unrepeuted, or one transgression not confessed, what must be your fate hereafter ! 1 write with affection to you, and I tell you frankly, that were I in year case, I Should avow with candour all my offences and that, did I keep back the de claration of them, from a 'mistaken motive of shame, I should act the hypocrite. and throw myself out of the pale of futons mercy. I should not, perhaps, t h ink myself hound to tell every inquisitive person my guilt • but what I should do is this: were imy crime one, which would hereafter, if lot avowed. be likely to implicate or endanger the life of a fellow-ceatule, I should then deem It my duty, both to Goy and to Society. to reveal it. I What would the world be to sue, or what should I care for its I judgment of me? Were I brought to a true state of penitence. , 'I should despiser it, sod thiuk of mithiug, but of propitiating ! the favour, and averting the wrath or, Goo, my Serious and my Judge.
