The idea that puldie• executions act in rer,v r ern upon the spectators cannot weigh with any one who has met the crowd returning from one of these horrid exhibitions, for he must hare seen the undimi nished joke of ribaldry pinving upon those countenances which had just Wit')V9o.(l the hairying of a set of miser eble sinners into the awful presence of an eteinal Judge. ) mitred we are convineed that the general feeling of those who visit such scenes is that of commiseration towards atry one who is thus deprived of life in omiosition to the declared law of the Supreme Being.

Wright, who was convicted of a burghtry an the house of Mr. Wilkinson, 6:messed an anxious wish to 'e his prosecutor, who immediately called at the prison and was admitted an the cell, where an affecting inter view took place between them. Mr. Wilkinson had used his influence to obtain a mitigation of NVright's sent ace, and went in the coarse of yesteillay twice to Lord Sidmnoth's office to learn whether any hopes might be entertained that extreme punishment would not be resorted tn. Upon heating that there was no ehance,lVright said he never had expected leaitr, and that his only view in troubling his pmseemor upon the PCC,SIOII was the grct;fic.i t ion of his riot- a ire, who kept hope full before her eves, chile even the shadow of it did not remain. Jeffcot and Albin were occupied in prayer a great part of the day, and in listening to the cons'ilation :liven by some atd the groans uttered by others of their friends. Ambrose was less prepared for the shock of the intelligence communicated in the Re. corder's Report. lie had been respitrtl, and persisted in declariii; that lie had never fired at his prosecutor. The cam of Bradbarv, who was convicted of having uttered forged notes, excited during the day the greatest interest at the Secretary of State's office, which Or.
