litaLs-vate Sow. The %semen are still employed in erecting the gal- 1 lows. The work is now half perfected. It will not be 4 completed until four o'clock in the morning. Thurtell is in a part of the prison where •the st dreadful note of preparation" is not likely to mar his meditations. Mr. Clutterbuck, the Magistrate, was in close confer ence with Thurtell for a considerable length of time to-day, at Thurtell's own particular desire. The sub ject of the conference, it is said, related to matters of a private nature. FURTHER PARTICULARS. • TRUZSDAT Mom. We understand that previous to the departure of Mr.l Justice Park from Hertford, he informed Mr. Fentonl that he might, if he chose, petition the Crown for the delay Thurtell's'exe:mtion till Monday, for tbe -pur pose which the unhappy man had stated, of seeing and taking leave of his friends. Mr. Fenton thanked his I. ordship far the intimation, and proceeded to consult with Mr. Jay, his principal, on the subject. Mr. Jay, however, at once said that the delay could be produc tive of no earthly good, for that he was sure Thurtell's friends would not come up from Norwich to see him ; an interview of such a descriptiOn could only be pro ductive of unnecessary anguish to all parties. Under these circumstances, be declined taking the course sug gested. Both Mr. Jay and Mr. Fenton were dreadfully affected, and evidently felt the strongest commiseration for the situation of their client. The rumour of Miss Thurtell having been in Hertford, we learn, is unfounded. The/ sisters, since the apprehension of their brother, have con• .ned themselves to their father's house, and have aban dined all those pursuits of plea s ure and amusement ' which previously occupied their time. .The father too, has altogether abstained from v•ciety, and remains at home a prey to the deepest melancholy. We have heard that an application has been made, on the part of the flmily, to have the body sent down to Norwich to be interred. This airangemeot may, by a proper under standing, be made. To fulfil the sentence of the law for dissection, it is only necessary that such incisions should' be made as that the heart may be exposed. It may then,- without further distiguiernent, be given to the friends of ilia criminal: and this is surely an indulgence to the' afflicted surviving relatives of the wretched man, that no feeling person would withhold. Thurtell wrote' a letter to 14is father yesterday ; but on a representation being made to him that it was such .a letter as would not give satisfaction or afford any cOnsGlation to his di,cousolate parent, it was suppressed with his own consent. After the execution of Thurtell some very important , statements will be made public, respecting his connec tions with the abandoned men who live by pandering to the vices and preying on the lollies of the metropolis.— Martell is disposed to make known fully the proceed io,o his former associates. Great fears are enter. twined amongst them as to the danger of his revelations. Thomas Thurtell was conveyed back to Newgate this •afternoon, by Nu is's coach, in the custody of Smart, the turnkey. He held his hand beibre his face the whole and did not utter a single sentence. Probate, the livery-s:able-keeper, came clown here with the identical gig and horse" of which the Public have beardoo much.. Ile.this merning left Hertford, On his return to London. The horse and gig were o'rjects of mach curiosity. The horse is rather a smart one, and exactly corresponds with the description given of it in evidence. It is exceedingly remarkable, and could err(ly fail to be again recognized by any one who has once seen it. Ike sombre appearance of thi place presents quite a contri4 to the bustle and activity of the two preceding :;ays. It seems, comparatively, a deserted town. . The exorbitant prices (amounting literally to acts of gross extol tiefn) have subsided, and accommodation may now he had here on somewhat more fair and equitable terms than hitherto. A dispute has taken place between Mr. Nicholson, the Under-Sheriff, and Ritthven, the officer, as to the clothes and other articles produced on the trial as the pr o perty of John Thurtell. Mr. Nicholson Claims them as forfeited to the Crown, by the convictirm of the pri soner, while Rutlivert insists upon having them for the zssignees, Thurtell being an uncertificated bankrupt, and consequently incapable of possessing any property of his own. Tice Rev. Mr. Richards, of the University of Cam bridge, arrived here this evening ) for the purpose of putting a question to Thurtell respecting the disappear ance of the Rev. Mr. Colton, who enjoys a living by virtue of his station, as a Fellow of king's College. The Rev. Gentleman was not admitted to see the convict, but the Rev. Chaplain of the gaol commur.icated with him on the subject of the Rev. Mr. Richards's visit. Thirteen said most unequivccally, that he knew noth:i.g t the absence of Mr. Colton. We believe there is no 4:ooht as to-the personal safety of the Rev. Mr. Colton, as he was seen at Paris long since his departure froze }.agland; and we believe bts friends are quite satisfied uat he is in America. The younger brother of Hunt arrived in Hertford this evening. PROBERTS DISCHARGE. Frobert might have taken his departure on Wednes day night, but he preferred. going to the jail, as there s were man/ of 'Lumen's friends in town whom he had no desire to encounter. He was yesterday morning quitting the prison. without paying some small debt which he ossed Mr. Wilson; upon which that Gentle man stopped him, and insisted upon being paid before he went. Probert, re!uctantly, put . his hand into his pocket, and dischargq the debt. On going forth, he turned towards the town, but got out of the main sweet into back -street as soon as possible, manifestly wishing to escape the observation of any person he might meet. .defore Ps obert had proceeded far he met his wire, Miss Noyes, and Thomas Noyes. Their recognition of each other was cold ; and after conversing for a fesi minutes, I rebert left the party, and proceeded in an opposite di :ecrion to that which they took. He was afterwards - - ..;en walking round the town with a man of respectable 4 ?pearance. lie himself was well dressel, and walked with a swag . geri% air. Ile afterwards proceeded to the hart Inn, where his stile has been residing. A c'awd followed him; and in the first moments of his nrerty, he heard audibly the moral judgment passed 't son him by the tribunal of public opinion, from which f!)ere is no evasion, by any treachery he can practise to :4;:rds his confederates. The Rev. Mr. Lloyd felt such ?dignation at the appearance in public of Probert and - 11 % wife, that he hired a chaise at his own expense, 4.1 d sent then) to London at four o'clock this day. i': - obert's manner, on leaving the jail, was,offensive and `vagisering ; he passed through the streets, nodding -4calliarly to several persons whom he accidentally knew /repenters of the jail i his indecent behaviour created a genez al feeling of indignation and disgust ; he was . advised, j ust b e f ore hi s libe r a t iin;to quit the country; 'be replied that he had no mean,, and thetefore could not if he was inclined ; which, from the harmer of em• phasising his words, he seemed to intimate he was not. The rebukes he afterwards met with induced him to hide himself at the inn, and when. heleft town in the post-chaise furnished by the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, the blinds were drawn up. Where can this unhappy wretch hide his head ? The grave is his only refuge. Ai the waters receded when the Lama approached them, so must society recede when he. attempts to mingle with it. In the midst of mankind, Itewoill find himself worse thin in solitude.— Ig the latter he would, indeed,'be inflicted by the pangs of conscience, by the gnawings of " the worm that never dies(' but, should he appear in society, he will, in addition, hare to encounter " the slow and moving finger" of public scorn, which will point 'him out at every step and turn. • EXECUTION OF THURTELL, THIS DAY. HERTFORD, FRIDAY, NINE o'CLocx. I The influx of persons from all parts to witness the execution of Thurtell is even greater than on the occa sion of the trial. Every road leading into the town is pouring iii its swarms ; and among the strangers not a few of the Fancy and 1 and Jerry schools are i emarked. Morten has ceased to protest his innocence, but yet makes no acknowledgment of his guilt. When told by . the Reverend Chaplain that his sins need only to be .repented of to be forgiven, lie pertinently remarked, Well, Sir, if I repent them, which from the bottom of my soul I do, is it necessary that I should also confess them, when no good is to be done by the disclosure?' Drurtell seems to be actuated in his silence, •by the delusive expectation so common to malefactors, of les sening the ignominy of their fate by withholding to the last their own concurrence in the justice of their sentence. HERTFORD, 11 u'CLocz. The county of Hertford seems to have emptied its whole population into this town, the streets of which resemble those of the metropolis during au election, or a public procession ; the number of countrymen whose innocent and anxious gaze look at everything and - everybody, is thickly intermingled with Londoners, whose knowing looks form a singular contrast, and give no very favourable specimen of the inhabitants of the great city. It is not, however, to the lower classes that the curiosity to ir itness one of the most awful scenes that human nature 'can behold, is confined; every minute sonic coach, private carriage, postchaise, or other vehid cle, is seen forcing itself through the dense population which fills the strvets ; and I learn Korn several persons , who have arrived from town this rum ning, that the whole wad is one continued throng of eauestrians, pedestrians, ' and vehicular travellers. Broken down carriages and broken down horses, are met ss ith in all. parts of the road ; nor is it on the London side of Hert ford alone that this bustle prevails—every avenue to Hertford presents a similar scene; and even now, country people are arriving every moment, eagerly en quiring when and is hei e the execution is to take• place. So eager is the anxiety to behold the appal.ing spectacle, that I much doubt a greater number of persons were assembled to witness the execution of Holloway and Haggerty, when such calamitous consequences marked the event; or when Thistlewood and his* associates paid the forfeit of a traitor's life. The plate where the gallows is erected is by no means favourable for afford ing a view to a great crowd, and it is much to be feared that curiosity may get the better of piiidence, and that sever al accidents may arise from the pressure. BY EXPRESS. HERTFORD, HALF-PAST ONE. Every spot which . conimalided the most distant view of the melancholy scene was occupied by spectators. — There must have been at least 80,000 'persons present, About eleven o'clock a cow house on the side• of the road opposite to the jail, the roof of which was covered with people, suddenly gave way, with a great crash.— Happily Mr. Wilson, the gaoler, anticipating the possibility of such an accident, had providently stuffed it with straw. Only two persons .were injured by the fall-4 lad, who had his thigh broken, and another, whose knee was put out. The arrangements connected with the execution did the High Sheriff and all concerned under him, the highest credit. No person whatever, ex cept those officially engaged, were this day admitted within the walls of the prison, or within the space enclosed for the drop in front of the walls, in order that the pi soner might not, in his last moments, be subjected to any needless or wanton intrusion. But with the view of giving every expedient accommodation to the Gentle. men attending for the Public Press, and others with various claims to superior consideration, a space was assigned to them of about ten feet all round the boarding inclosing the drop, which was not only strongly railed in, but placed under the charge of a sttong posse f Bow-street officers, who shewed their usual.effi cie...cy ia keeping af the crowd, and preserving order —We had a station directly in front of the drop. The assemblage of spectators was of a more respectable description than we have usually observed on such occasions, at least in appearance ; for, according to some good fancy. authorities near us, the proportion of ;idling coves Asia blackguards was considerable. For our own parts we were glad to learn that so many of that dissolute class were in the way of a most edifying exemplification of the Sc'ipture precept so judiciously enforced by the Rev. Chaplain (Mr. Franklin) of the Jail, in his sermon of yesterday, that , " the wages of sin are death." Among the more pub lic characters present, we observed Mr. Pierce Egan, who is said to have obtained a legaci of Thurtell's pa pers, of which he is to make tit Use in a forthcoming Memoir of the wretched ir.dividttli—and Mr. Williams, - . u ~+~- ~- - - ti e pc_prietor of the Surrey Theatre, who, asue are in-' formed, intends, with his usual good taste and reeling , to dramatize the awful scene of which he was an eye witness, without ant fear of being interdicted on the ground of any prejudite that can ensue to the unhappy Penalefaear. At half:past eleven another cow-shed, ad-, joining the former one, also fell down,• and some fifty or sixty persons seated on it, were tumbled into a bed of ' straw provided for them, without any of them being in the least injured. At five minutes before twelve, a buitie within the drop 'compartment announced that, the tragic spectacle was about to commence. Precisely as the clock struck twelve-Mr. Nicholson, the Under Sheriff, ascended the scaffold, and was immediately followed by tell who ascended with a firm step, and a countenance which displayed an almost inconceivable degree of calm ness and resolution. He had the same dress on which he wore in Court on the trial. He held forth his manacled hands to Mr. Nicholson to shrike, an:l said a few, words to him which were inaudible.— Thurtell was followed by Mr. Wilson, the Jailer, lick Ketch, and a Turnkey; but, contrary to the general ' expectation and usage, neither die ChAplain nor any °Ocu spiritual comforter made his appearance. We I understand that this took place in consequence of ' Thurtei's owa special desire. The executioner theft proceeded with his distressing office. Thurtell took c i if his hat and made a slight inclination of his head to the' assecnOled multitude. The executioner toric off his cravat, put on Lis bead a white night-cap, and immedi ately pulled it dOwn over his face. The rpectacie which the wretched mars exhibited at this moment, with his strong features protruding themselves under *the thin covering which shrouded them was most appalling.— While the executioner was fastening the roe round his neck, Thurtell spoke to him once or twice, as if giving him directions to make his exit as quick and easy as possible. The-ernutiener assured him all was right. Mr. Wilson also whispered .unto him some words of comfort. Thurtell, turning round towards Mr. 'Wilson, shook; handS earnestly, and was heard, to say emphati cally----" Gon bless you." He also took a farewell of the turnkey who was in attendance, and tke signal being given, he was launched into eternity. He seemed to die without a struggle. The whole scene did not oc cupy more than five mint•res. ' None of the prints which have been published as likenesses of Thurtell present at all a correct idea cf the man ; and yet his physiognomy was striking enough to have been easily delineated. His face was by no means one to frighten you at first sight. The solid fleshiness and satoothness of the whole, the calmness which seemed seated on his unwrinkled brow, and the bold relief which an ashy complexion and whitish-brow n hair derived from dark penetrating eyes, shaded by still darker eyebrows, were all rather .calculated to produce an agree.ible im pression on a superficial observer. It was only on a narrower inspection, and bringing, perhaps, a little of phrenological science to your aid, that von became struck with the disproportionate smallness of his fo:ehead And the protruding oviirahundance of ad the inferior parts where sensuality and passion preside. A large mood), thick bps, the upper one much larger than the. other, and projecting over it:—open curled-op nostrils, long jaws, and a neck broad and thick behind, all served to proclaim hint the more than Zanga which his conduct proves him to have been. A simple and inexperienced person surveying his features in a state of repose merely, might possibly be slow in arriving at such a conclusion; but no man, not even the most learned sceptic in matters of this Sort, could have hesitated for one instant in acknowledging its truth, had he only been present when Thurtell, in the course of his defence, spoke ofe th persecutions which he allegcd to have suf fered from Mr. Barber Beaumont—had he seen the nlomentary fury that kindled in his countenance — had he heard the louder tones in which he gave vent to his execrations—and above all, had he witnessed the vehemence with which, suiting the action to the word in his defence, he exclaimed " The flesh will quiver where the pincers tear, And the blood will flow where the knife is driven." It was plain to all eyes, that when at large and flee from all restraint but his own will, John Thurtell was, in spite of all his protestations, just the sort of man to commit the crime of which he has been convicted and for which he .has suffered.
