Smith and John Clarke, the two men convicted of a robbery in the shop of Mr. Fletcher, watchmaker, &c. in Chester, were executed, pursuant to their sentence, on the New Drop, at the back of the city gaol. About a guar. ter before one, Smith mo►►nted tl►e platform in a firm and steady manner, followed by Clarke, who appeared much emaciated and very weak. The unhappy men having intimated a wish for silence, Smith addressed the immense crowd to the follow. ing purport:—He said, they beheld two unfortu. nate men, who were brought out to die, and in a few minutes must suffer the death ordained by the law. —lie made some observations on what he con ceived to be improper conduct in his prosecutor, and declared solemnly to his God, that he had never been in his shop and cheapened a watch, as he had stated in his evidence ; and that the man who drove the cart down Foregate-street, and who said on the trial that he had seen him (Smith) there, had for. sworn himself. Ile then drew from a side-pocket the petition, which was sent to the Mayor and Cur. poration in their behalf, and requested Mr. Hughes, the gaoler ? to throw it amongst the crowd, that its contents might be made as public as possi ' ble ; complained much of some malicious person who had written an anonymous letter, threatening the Mayor and others, which he totally disclaimed all knowledge of, and which could only have been done to prevent their receiving any inerey,had i amen intended to extend mercy to them ; declared he forgave Mr. Fletcher, and all concerned in the prosecution, from his heart, and died in peace with all mankind, in hopes of receiving that mercy in another world which he had never hoped fur 'here ; and desired the prayers of the spectators. Clarke, in his address, also solemnly denied, as he was shortly to appear in the presence of God, being in Cow-lane on the night of the robbery ; said he had not been in the prosecutor's shop for the space of I'2 years before the robbery ; and had not had a piece of watch-glass in his pocket for several months before lie left London. Ile then went on nearly to the same effect as his fellow-sufferer had done, and desired the people to believe him, as his dying nerds, that Alartin was nut the man who rubbed Taylor, and for which he is sentenced to seven years of misery and punishment for a crime of which he was totally innocent. in this declaration Smith repeatedly joined, saying, believe him ! believe him !—and hoped it would be a caution to juries in future, who might sit upon a trial of a similar nature to theirs. They then both called upon God to bless all around them, and bade the world farewell. After speaking they re. tired, till about twenty minutes before two, when they were tied up, and the curtains around the drop were withdrawn : after spending a few minutes in prayer, Smith g•ive the fatal signal, and the plat . _ . form dropped. They both died very penitent; and with manly fortitude. Their behaviour since their condemnation was exemplary. A wretched female, of the name of Troughton, who had been a few weeks on the town, and who resided in Tottenham-court-road, attempted to de stroy herself by poison on the night of Sunday last. She had taken a quantity of arsenic, and after she had au done she communic tied the fact to another of the frail sisterhood, who gave an alarM. Pow erful emetics were administered to the unfortunate woman, and a great portion of M. poisonous matter was discharged, but she was not expected to sur vive an hour yesterday morning. FIRE FROM A CURIOUS CAUSE.—At an early hour on Thursday last, the wind.mill of Messrs. Roe and Co. of Marrow-bone-lane, Dublin, was set on fire by a nail getting between the mill-stones and communicating with the machinery ; the build. ing was instantly in a blaze. The fire was most ter. rifle, and threw out such vivid sparks, that the adjoining concerns were in imminent danger; but the prompt attendance and great exertions of - the differant English Companies' fire-engines succeeded in getting it under before it reached the second story. COCKNIES.—The origin of this familiar term is thus stated :—An honest pains-taking Citizen, who had never seen a blade of grass beyond old Fins. bury.square, or the purlieus of Moorlields, was in. vited to spend a few days at the farm of one of his country cousins. Soon after his arrival, hearing a horse neigh, our Citizen exclaimed, 44 How the horse laughs !" but being informed that the noise was called neighing, and in the morning hearing a cock crow, he cried out—" Row the cock neighs !" Hence, the above appellation. Wa'reamEn.—Every waterman plying on the Thames shall have the number of the boat to which he belongs stamped and painted, ur coloured upon metal, well and sufficiently affixed or fastened in or upon the front of his hat, in a conspicuous man ner, so as the same may be seen by ally person re sorting to such plying place.—Penalty, any sum nut exceeding furl) shillings, nor less than five shillings. The Nobility, Gentry, Clubs, and Sncieties, are respectfully informed by Hour/say and Co. that the State Lottery will ue drawl on FRIDAY NErr. HORNSBY and Co. solicit favours of the Public on the present occasion, ou which Day they hope to divide among those wh4)mouour them with their commands, a large proportion of the Two Hundred 'Thousand Pounds Prize Money. The First.tirawn 20,0001. Prize, and the last. drawn (20 1 0001. were shared and sold by IlotttqsaY and Go. at No. 28-, Cornhill, and. St. :Margaret's. bill, Borough.

David Lovegrove, a disciple of Mars, Aas p ut to the bar, on the charge of assaulting a persim ozuwd Wade, on the night before, and creating a c bus i. derable disturbance by his riutuus and disunleni conduct. Front the testimony of the Complaina n t, i t op. peared, that the Defendant had forint:lll paid ho. nourable addresses to Miss W.tde, his si, ta , young lady possessed of all th /se engaging accoin. plishments so peculiarly attractive amongst the Bourgeois, and having wale a very warm impres, sion on her susceptinie he deserted her from some unaccountable reason, and enlisted in a march. ing regiment; thus at once c;,,ting off all future prospects of a connection with the fair damsel, to whom he had so lung paid his devotions. On M. day night, however, a little pot.valiont, he R. solved to present himself before the lady, and for that purpose proceeded to her house, but eased at the door by her brother, who refused him ddmi. sloe. A warm alwcation ensued, which terminal by the assault in question ; the discarded &verso consequently conveyed to the watch.house, abra the power of his passion had time to subside, u 4 by the ensuing morning, he heartily repentedothis expedition. Mr. Alderman Salim recommended en amicable adjustment of the affray, with which the parties concurred, and, after a short parley, a treaty of peace was agreed to, and thus the quarrel ended.
