Mr. Cotton, the Ordi nary, in consequence of the awful event which was so soon to succeed it, via . the e x e cu ti on o f fa ur f e llo w crea tures. Menton, Mahal", Josses, and Abbott. At the usual hour Mr. Cotton entered the chapel, when a mul titude of prisoners %etre conducted to their respective departments. Lastlyscame the Rev. Peter Fenn, Ma bony, James, and then Abbott, attended by Mr. Baker. who, as well as Mr. Cotton, had been previously engaged with them in private conversation and devotion. Feen took the extreme angle of the pew that he occupied last Sunday, and sat parallel with his fellow convicts. They entered in the order above stated, and all evinced that they were aware of the awful circumstances under which they were placed. Mr. Fella, however, appeared to be anxious to render information to the three unfor tunate men at his right hand, by pointing out to them the prayers and lessons appointed for the day. Winton did not attend the service, because he had religious friends of his own community with him in a room near his cell. Early in the evening Mrs. Fly and Mr. Gur ney visited Hinton, when he appeared to have aban doned hope; and subsequently a number of that re spectable society of which be was once a member, joined them. Abbott, for whom within the last few days great sympathy has been felt, and exertions made to save him, although he behaved with decorum in the House of Got), complained bitterly of his fate, and said, that under all circumstances. he ought not to suffer death. His conduct, however, during his confinement, was such as to gain the respect of those who by Royal clemency have been respited. as well as those in government over him. James was respectably dressed, and appeared during the service to be the pe culiar object of Fenn, but he said at the conclusion that it was a hard thing that he should die. Mahony togtther displayed a consistency of devotion which is seldom manifested by those who have only 20 hours to live; when any patticular passage was read which ap plied to his fate or to his friends, the handkerchief was applied to his eyes, to prevent the tears from falling upon the book he held in his band. From the time of his commitment down to this day, his conduct has been exemplary. The pavement on the front of Newgate was all day occupied, so much so that there was difficulty in obtaining admission at the felon's door, or even the Governor's entrance, and so it remained till a late hour. XECUTION OF HUNTON, ABBOTT, MAHONY, AND JAMES, AT THE OLD BAILEY. This morning the awful sentence of death war carried into effect in the Old Bailey upon Joseph Hinton. aged 58, for forgery, James Abbott, 2'B, for cutting and maim ing his wife John James, aged 19, and Joseph Mahon', 26, for burglary. At an early hour the Old Bailey was crowded by an immense body of persons, so much interest did the exe cution of Mr. Hunton, and the unfortunate Abbott excite; a general hope was expressed that those two persons would be respited; but it was determined that the law should take its course. Upon the arri. val of the Under Sheriffs at the prison, they pro ceeded immediately to the Press Room, where they found Houton sitting at a table, reading to a Gentle. man a beautiful prayer 'frith he had composed during the night, and in which he expressed his firm hope of Salvation. His manners were serene and calm, and he did not evince the slightest fear or alarm at the awful ceremony he was about to undergo, and which so soon was .to ,terminate his existence. When he had con cluded the Prayer, he turned round and said, N 1 am ready now, Gentlemen." He was • desired to re main seated until the other prisoners were pinioned. James, Mahony, and Abbott. were then severally brought from their cells, and had their hands and arms secured by cords. They appeared perfectly resigned and penitent; Abbott was particularly cool and com posed, but said not a wcrd; Hunton addressed limes, and said, 41 Put thy trust in Cita= ;" James replied, «1 have—it's all for the best." ..When the gr ;cella/ere securing his arms, Hunton complained they drew the cords too tight, and asked leave to put on his gloves,. which be did ; be al,o untied his neckcloth. His man ner altogether was firm, collected, and serene; ,nothing could exceed the courage and fortitude he displayed—it was worthy of a better fate.' At,a quarter past eight o'clock the four prisoners were led to the scaffold ; !Altana spoke but little, yet he seemed in mental prayer. James, upon ascending the scaffold, advanced to the railing, acknowledged the justice of his sentence, acid begged the surrounding crowd to take warning by his melancholy fate. Mahony was nest placed on the ,c4fold, Abbott third, and Milton last. They all stood calla and erect while the executioner was adjusting the rope, and in a few minutes the drop fell, and they ceased to exist. His Excellency the Loan LIM/TENANT, and a large party of distinction, leave town on Wednesday nest, oa a tint to Castle Forbes, the seat of Viscount Fosses, M.P. We understand that his Excellency, previous to his return to Dublin, intends spend ing a few days at Florence Court, the seat of the Earl of Una. tuxes. —Dublin Evening Mail. Sir H. HAuroan firmed through this place early on Monday morning, on his way to town ; and we are glad to learn, by a communication from Sir Hem, that "he left the Marquis of Ctsva.ma much better."

Friday morning a meeting took place lathe borough of Leeds, for the purpose of getting op an AdJress to his Majesty in favour of Emancipation. At an early hour, some of the lowest Irish resiJeat in the town posted themselves in the Cloth Hall Yard, f r the purpose either of annoyance or approbation, as cit. cumstances might require. JOHN MARSHALL, Esq. M.P. was called to the Chair. As a matter of course he disavowed all party feeling, and processed himself, in the usual cant of the day, a friend to civil and religious liberty. A Mr. Tome then came forward, and, after predict. ing the most dire calamities to the empire unless Eman cipation should be gr anted, proposed a resoltition and an address to the Crown in favour of thst measure. HOMY HALL, Esq. with much good sense and sound reasoning, opposed both the resolution and address, and was seconded by the Rev. T. GALLAND. A show of hands was called for, and slier repeated trials the CHAIRMAN declared the numbers so eqtkally balanced that he could not decide on which side the majority lay. The appearance, however, being against the Catholic Claims, he was pressed by the Reverend G. Wray, Mr. Alderman Hall, Mr. Baines and others, to come to some decision, and after much hesitation he said, 4. I must honestly give my opinion that the Reso-, lotion has the majority. Mr. Alderman HALL then demanded the appoint ment of tellers, to ascertain with accuracy which way the sense of the meeting lay. Thii was refused, and the refusal proves beyond dispute that the pasty who boasted of victory were well aware that the result of a mote accurate division would have been defeat. This refusal was at breach of promise, for it had been previously agreed upon, that in the event of any diffe rence as to the division, four tel.ers should be appointed on each side. Some mischief was done by the rabble who assembled on the occasion, but fortunately no serious occident occurred.

They also stated, that with the consent of the trustees the principal building its the park, called Wan. stead House, had been pulled down, and the materials sold; but that, without any such consent, Mr. Long Wellesley bad cut dots n a great deal of valuable tim ber, and bad recently marked 2.000 trees,ot various kinds, which were advertised to be sold on the 9th of December inst. To prevent this additional injury to the estate the present application was made. The Leaned Counsel observed, that the trees just marked were highly ornamental to Wanstead Park, as they clothed sevesal pieces of water, and otherwise formed groves, avenues, and vistas. The Loma Cussimioa—To cut them down, then, would be a general injur y to the property, and slier its value, by destroying the beauty of its appearance ?

SIT JAMAS SCARLITT stated that this WILI an action brought by Mr. Green to recover a penalty of 1001. from the defendant, by reason of a nuisance. from which the plaintiff himself had on one occa,ion suf fered ; for on going up to bee what a crowd was about, at the door of the defendant's florae, he had his pocket picked. Tie nuisance of which the plaintiff complained we., the keeping of a disorderly 114 by the defendant ; and he sued 14. r the penalty under an Act of the 25th of George the Second, by which it was enacted, that no public entertainments, I consisting of music and dancing, tkc. should be given at any house in London and Westminster, or twenty miles around, without a proper license had and ob• tained for the same from the proper authorities" The defendant was the landlord of the house called the King's Arms public-house, Has bleats, in tte ward of CI ipiegate, and had allowed entertainments of this kind to be given in his house, without any license fur that purpcsw ; and the consequence was, that for every person admitted by him to such entertainment, he was liable, enc!er the Act, to pay a penalty of one hundred pounds to any person that should sue for it. The object of the Act, as manifestly appeared from the recital, was to place the houses giving such entertainments uncle, the contioul of the p..lice, bons the apprehension that otherwise such houses might become receptacles for, and encourager. ut, robbers and thieves and infamous women, and all manner of vice and debauchery. Some persons certainly were of opinion, that such houses ought to be left free, like other houses; but they were not here t s discuss the policy rf the law, but only whether the law had been violated? He had a specimen sat the bills which were issued to give public notice of these entertainments, and it appeared that this baseness was conducted with great economy, for one bill was so printed as to serve for many days. The admission prce was 2d. but that was not the only nor the principal profit. The great profit was from the drinking and smoking ; and by the time the entertainments were ton. eluded, which was about 12 o'clock, many of the cons. pony became drunk, and sallied out into tie street. some for the purpose of raising riots and disorders, and others for still worse purposes.
