John nose alias ihsvid Healey, for the murder of James Hamilton, was executed upon the drop erected for the ot•rw•ioti its front of the county Courts in this c•ty. He conducted himself, not only with iu. propriety, hut with great audacity, during his trial, and even after the dreadful sentence of the law had been pronounced. On Sunday eporoino he made a confess of his guilt, and .'erlored Charlton (whom he had before cc. iced us the actual murderer) to be entirely inno seta of the crime; lie, however, continued in a .t.lte of such hardened depravity that, we under • ono,. the chaplain refused to sltnini-ter the sacra :zeta to him. This refusal worked upon lir mind, crud he threw himself upon this chapel floor in a ...ate of mental spiry, crying aloud that he dared 4:4 to up o roach the. altar table. The soothing ob servations and persua•ive language of the chaplain coon restored him, however, to a state of compare. t•ve calmtie.s, whey lie received the holy sacra ment : and it woe again administered to him on Sunday evening, but lie continued to suffer much f-orn the dread of Iris approaching execution. On Monday morning, when the time arrived fur his re :level from the goo!, lie lay upon the Boor of his orartment, apparently with a determinution not to be moved, mad it was found necessary to employ fuur melt to curry him to the Grand Jury room. As they bore him "slung pinioned he bit one of the ;..rtv, hut it was 101 Ward to be a coovulsive bite. Qu his arrival in the Grand Jury room he appeared toore collected. and entered i n to prayer with the ; floe service occupied some minutes. He was then ruipportrel to the scaffold, where be stood erect after 11,e rope wea 'sliced round his neck. and exclaimed, " The Lord have mercy upon me!" ,r.t the given signal, during the reading of the Lord's Prayer, the drop fell and be was launched Jute eternity. After batwing an hour. the burly was cot down and conveyed to the lofirtnary for 4 iirseetion. Thus ended. at the early age of nine •en, the life of a young man who. had he been trained in the paths ol virtue. might Wave been a useful menther of society fur years to come. His roelasicholy . fate is another proof of the necessity of roiocatton.
