Turner had his en with •Braintreth on the 6th, 7th, and Bth ' of June. • They both continued to express much 'anxi y th r Brantheth should become penitent •and .urro for for his cruelties and bloodshed. 'Ludlam expressed a strong wish that the people would he ratter be submissive and obedient to the King and the laws. • This morning Lizeildni and Turrier looked sl►ncic inlV and spiridess. They had watched the whole night in prayer and psalm-singing. At nine the Chaplain viSited them, and assisted then in , Their devotions. They afterwards continued to pray aloud till the Moment of immedUte prepara tion arrived. Their expressions were always the saute :—" 0 Lord, have mercy P' " 0 Lord, save my soul !" " If lam on a bad foundation, upon a sandy fontidation, 0 Lord, take it now as ay, and set me coon the rock." " 0 pardtm all my sins, for the sake of thy Son, who died once for all mankind." " 0 Lord, come now with thy strength, and support my soul." While the out' fervently tittered these expressions, the other Itet-tans•wering " Amen." Then the other took op the prayer, and was accompanied in the same manner by his companion. Their voices were dejected in the extreme. Brandreth slept as usual, rose in good spirits, and showed no sign of despondency or fear. From an early hour in the morning the scaf folding and drop were erecting in front of the •• gaol, and a considerable number of persons were collected in the street, goietly looking on, and listening with Visible alarm to each lad note of preparation. At half-past 10 all the prisoners went to the Chapt.l. Ludlam and Turner looked like walking • i:pectres. Brandreth stepped forward firmly. All the other prisoners appeared to feel much sympa thy. At the same moment the crowd without felt some trepidation on seeing the horse led into the gaol that was to draw the hurdle along -the card. At half-past eleven, all the prisoners; excepting the three men to he executed, and GeorgeWeight man, left the Chapel. All held their handker . chiefs to their eyes, and sobbed deeply. Shortly . after they had collie into the }ard, , William Tur ner's brother, EdArard, shrieked horribly, and was carried into a room by two men. The Chap lain then administered the Sacrament to the four convicts. At twelve precisely, Mr. Simpson, the Under • Sheriff, appeared with a few javelin men, and considerable number of special constables. The prisoners then descended from the Chapel to the room aliich lhanclreth and Weight man had occu pied. Here their irons were knocked off. Tur ner and Ludlam kept praying all the while. When Ladlam's chains wefe knocking off, he exclaimed, Q Lord Jesus, Thou art tender-hearted ; 0 be now my portion 17 At a quarter past 12 the hurdle was drawn up at the dotir of this room. it was a Very simple machine, formed or a few hoards nailed upon two long beams. Brandreth Caine out first,, and, While placing himtelf on the hurdle, said " Some one hold me, lest I tall off." A man held him while time horse was driven slowly round the yard. lie nodded to the several prisoners as he passer; along. Turner was next drawn on the hurdle. When he came to the other prisoners they all screamed and wept most bitterly. When Isaac Ludlam was placed on the hurdle, he clasped his hands and *raised 'a fervent hiok towards Heaven. The prisoners cried out still more bitterly. Tur ner and Ludlam kept their eyes' shut while.on the hurdle. Ilrarxireth and Turner were kept in a narrow pas Sage - of the gaol till Ludlam joined them. Ile, seeing . them stand there, asked if he might not walk there for a, little time. Turning to theClniplain he said, " You remember what I men ' tinned to you," e% e bdieve something relating to 'his family). They then proceeded immediately in the same order to the scaffold. 13randreth luoked coolly around upon the immense multitude of the spectators, and in a loud and firm voice said, " God be With 'you all and Lord Castle reagh." He stood resolute and silent while the executioner adjusted the rope round his .neck, Tallier came out next, and advanced with un usual firmness of step. IlThile time executioner , was putting the rope round his neck, lie exclaim.: ed l o udly and distinctly, ".This is all _Oliver and the Government.'' The Chaplain at this moment came iu front of these two, ,ind prevented any farther observations. Isaac Ludlam came out last; and when the rope was applied to his neck, he devoutly said, " I re ceive this at the hand 'of the Lord :" then raising his voice to a louder pitch he prayed thus ~..rpay m .soul now, tower up to glory. 0 may I now go where angels worship thee. May I meet this great concourse of people in Heaven. '0 ' Lord I pray for high and low, rich and pOor, hond and free. INlay this awful dispensation.of thy pris rr . vidence he sanctified." _Here the - Chaplain's A • Voice in prayer having become louder than Lad lam's, Ludlam ceased td use any expressions of his own, .and joined' the Chaplain by repeating, " Amen" to every particular petition, They all repeated the Lord's Prayer very dis tin-ctly, and immediately afterwards the drop fell. B r4n d re tn appem'ed,perfectly.omposed during The whole time. He held a black silk handker ehiet (time same which he. had worn at the trial, stud which had . inSt been taken 'from his neck) in ,his clasped banns,- while at their last' devotions.— This he held exactly. in the same ,manner after life forsook his frame. He dropped quite still, and teenied dead at onee: His beard, which re &brained untouched, goofed very' frightful from un tiet neath. the white cap that was drawn off his face. 'runner, too, seetaed sufficiently firm on his .laSt'rtoments, mitt diedLuiffani, % Traying;lannediately be the drop fell, was vi agitated,.aud seemed to die . with much pain, for he was repeatedly eonvulsetl after he had been thrOwii off. 'The drop fell a quarter before 1"; and at a quar ter past 1 they tver'e : cut flown.. Their, •cothos , L ucre piled upon the scaffold.

Two axes and two knives, With black handles, were at the same time exhibited, Smut: s:awcist wa then strewed on the t`caffold. The .crtmd, considerably more than six thousand persons, kept together all this time. Brandreth's body was then laid upon the bloe:lt, with the face downwards, and the bead tiiwatds t he street, in the full view of the people ; the scaffold not being more than ten feet from the ground. The exc.: cuiiutier - raised: the axe, and struck at the neck with all his force. At that instant there wAs a burst of horror froth the Crowd The eXeentioner, then took up tie brad, and hidding it by thelsair i , addressed the people, " Behold the head of Jere-- miah Brandreth, I he-trait or." liithertis the triul► iitude had (Neu quiet and motionless. The instant the head was exhibited, there was a tremendous shriek setup ; and they ran violently in all diiections., as it under the impulse of sudden phrenzy.. Those that resumed their stations groaned and booted. The javelin-men and constables were all in mo tion, and a few dragoons, who bad been stationed, at both ends of the street, drew nearer with drawn swords. lintall became immediately calm. Very few of the immense multitude now remained, and these looked quietly on while the heads-of Turner and Ludlam were successively exhibited in the sante way. The heads and - bodies *ere then thrown into the coffins, and all spectators dispersed. OLD BAILEY.

(From " Tice Morning Post.") BRIGnToN, Nov. 6.—Yesterday being the An trivets:try of the 'Gunpowder Plot, the usual pre parations for a display Of fireworks, in squibs and cracker's, had taken place in the town. On the Steyne, the populace began to assemble afteetwi•- light, in one immense crowd, and defying, by their numbers, any effectual check to their genetA iu tendons. The High Constable, in this dilemma, applied tcr and obtained the assistance oldie mi litary, the 21st Fusileers,. about 300 ot. whom had marched into the town the same morning . , and nearly the•whole of these in the end were called' forth to subdue the growing Nitride. Matters at length assumed an aspect so hostile, that it was considered reqUisite to read the Riot Act, which was accordingly done, Mr. Sergeant RUNNING TON having the personal courage to react it, amidst theitnrhulent uproar that prevailed. Many cuts and bruises were received from missiles; and. a stone was cast with violence through the Window of the High Constable ; but the catastrophe most to be deplored,- was a bayonet wound, which mie of the Headboroqhs, Mr. ROwLes„ a shoemaker by professiob;' and an industrious 'and respectable man, received 16 the contusion front one of the military, which Massed from the lower part of his back, completely through his body, inflicting, it is feared, a mortal hurt. The trimOltuous assem blage had 4lispersed itself by midnight, before which many persons had been taken into custody by the Police, the whole of whom mrderw.ent ex asninatiOnS before Mr. Sergeant Itt:NNINGToN, at the Town-half this morning, and the greater part of them were bound over in recognizances to answer for their conduct .at the next ensuing Quarter Sessions.

The accused communicated' this reply to Fonseca Nives, assuring him that the conbpiracy had no existence. The.eccused. received the ob noxious proclamation in a letter through the Lis bon post-office, 15 or 20 clays before his arrest, and was astonished and perplexed at its lie hesitated what lie ought to do, and went ,to take couasel of Gomez Freire, who advised him to show the proclamation to no one. The ac Cured said, that as to the paper,containing abusive expressions with regard to the Marstkal.General, it „as written with - hiS own handi. that it wai not his composition, but that it came to his hand in the same way as-the proclamation, and that he took a copy of it, sending the. origin at to England . by the .packet, to show the state of public'opinion . in Portugal. lie declared in .his answers to the lourth interrogatory, that he picot, the-original to England, addressed to the Duke of .Sussex, .and that he did not place its receipt in. his diary, be. cause be was is the habit 'of not doing so with many litters of dcsciiptiOn.. lie had shoWn both the Proclamation and the other paper to Fonseca to see if be knew the hand. It appears with respect to the accused Francisco Leit e 'trdre da (lama, that he declared upon oath that heprestuned that he was•apprehended 'on ac. count of his having been tor a few days..in posses sion: of 'certain papers deliYered.• to hint . by his brothet-in-law Antonio Cabral Calheiros, who,. after - an absence of a year, visited them twice, and on a third-visit left the papers, et the same. time describing their purport, and explaining the schemes of himself and friends for overturning the Government. The accused asserted, that ke ex • pressed the ntmost horror, and dwelt so strOugly on the shocking nature of the crime, that his brother-in-law appeared to repent sincerely.; but before he conlil know .whethei this repentance was sincere, he was apprehended ; • his brother-in-law Cabral was, he acknowledged, a man of the worst conduct, and of the most perverted mind ; that he, th'e accused, had not revealed the plot toil to Lint, because. lie. firmly , believed that HS brother-io-law bad repented of it. This accused basil concealed all knowledge of the papers, but • when they we e taken front his closet itito which he had the own them, he identified them. • With resp at to 'he accused Antonio Ferreira da Costa, Item -Colon t of a reglinentrof the line, he declares on oath that limit 15 days before histapprehensioa, Cabral, With whom he was on familiar thuagh not friendly terms, called upon It Tui a at - began to talk .about the existill-Puli tica circa:use aces which, he said, the whole mitten was disgusted, party on a count of the Soverriga being in Ame rica, partly On account of the stagnation of esonmeree; and when the accused asked him in a decided tone what bis o'iject was, he answered that it was to produce a change of eitensa stances, to revolutionise Lisbon, and to make-an independent Government; upon Ythich the accused told him that he was ignorant of the Portuguese character, and of the 'actual' cotb. ditivn of the kiugdom; for of all the [cations of Europe it was the most happys-i-happy iu its population; happy in its adlni nistration of Government: Cabral appeared to aggree WM,. all Cr said would desist Irons- his project : Cabral; hose ever, asked What, part be (the accused) would take in case of a revulution : to which he answered, - that being in the com mand of men ist the service.. of the-King, he sttoulsl.foll+nv,tbg same party as his Stildiers did : that Cabral did riot open him self further,mut.did 'he-point out anyatarticular persons ;Ihe mentio r ned, as if by accident, the name of Gomez Freire,.but asserted, that he was not yet au associate, which the accused believed, nut, thinking it ,possible that Gol,ez Frtire. could hairCunited himself to such purposes; that the aetaised made tro.diseloaute, thinking the whole business a foolish - levity of Cabral, who even protested that he would burn alt tie papers and rid himself of his insane sehemia,that the accused thought it a duty to make an exposition of the state of publiC opinitm, and of the general circumstances of the nation to the Govern ment, in order that it might take such measures as it. deemed Most adequate, and fur •that purpose' drew up a paper to be presented to the president Souza (which paper, chiefly con sisting of military regulations, was found on the accused.) ' The rest of this persoWs deposition went to exculpate biut self both on the scot , ' of his zeal as officer, and of his.at - tempts to divert Cabral from his mad purpose. lie concluded .by giting the lie direct to albiliose assertions 'of Cabral which pretended that he (the accused) knew any thing about the so ciety of conspirators.
