LOT INTIRVIIIV.

On Saturday alterimon, Samuel Churchill, who lives at
' Pinkhaus near Knowle St. Cites, and Tim Caroline
Priddy, who lives at 'Mulish, paid their last visit to their
I mother. They left Chard by rail at half-past twelve,
I and visited the gaol during the afternoon. They found
I the prisoner in her usual health. Several of the prism
0111C1411 were present at the interview. From her long
confinement within the orison walls, and latterly within
the walls of the condemned cell, the convict was rather
pale, and said she could not eat so heartily as she did.
The visitors sat', however, that, all things considered,
the convict looked well, and we, in comparatively good
health. The convict's daughter was again very much
affected, and cried, saying she could not bear to see her
mother in the position the was. The convict replied,
Never mind, my dear daughter; perhaps it is an for
the best. They ha' been very kind to me. Perhaps I be
more prepared to die new than I should ha been if
anything else had been the case." Then, brightening
I up, and speaking with a seeming eagerness, she
added, "But I bftn't guilty, mind you! I be as
innocent am a babe unborn. My life has been sworn
away wickedly and falsely. God above knows" The
uaughter cried very much at this. The convict then
asked after her friends and neighbours—people whom
she had known. She said the Bev. Mr. Phillips had
been very kind to her, and remarked on his visits to her.
She asked," How is the garden getting on?" and Samuel
told her. She then asked, What have you done with
the house where do 'ee liver She advised her non to
either sell the property or live in the house, and not let
it remain unoccupied. The convict then gave her wm
some advice as to worldly matters "when she was dead
and gone" She expressed her wish that they might be
happy and live long, and concluded by remarking that
those who had wronged her would receive • fitting punish.
moot some day. The interview lastel an hour, and then
the son and daughter parted from their parent for ever.
The parting was a most tender one, the whole three
wpe_ping bitterly.
Stanwood arrived in Taunton on Saturday. No great
preparation was required for the execution, as the gallows
used for the last execution remains in the vanhouse. The
position of it is at the western angle of the prison, facing
the carriage entrance, opposite the County ball, and it is
only divided from the road by the boundary wall, • yard
some 'lO yards square intervening between it and the
porter's gate. The culprit walks upon • wooden platform,
which is on the level of the Boor. This platform is
divided into two 'actions which are supported by •
movable upright. Overhead is • croft beam, to which the
rope is attached. When the support to the false floor is
removed the culprit falls into a kind of well, and nothing
is visible but the rope.

A few minutes befii;e-eighi-Jcloc-k. the gaol bell began
to toll. and the melancholy prooession, consisting of the
gaol officials, the High Sheriff, the chaplain, the prisoner,
and the executioner, made its way to the van-house, the
place of execution. The culprit having taken her posi-
tion beneath the drop, her feet were pinioned, the rope
was adjusted, and the white cap was drawn over her face.
A few seconds afterwards the bolt was drawn, and
Catherine Churchill was • corpse At the moment the drop
fell, • black flag was hoisted over the porter's lodge, and
those amenibleol outside knew that the dread sentence of
the law had been carried out The body hung for one
hour, after which It was taken down and Placed in a
wooden shell. A formal inquest was subsequently held
before Mr. W. Munekton, coroner for the Western
division of the county, when the surgeon and others
deposed that the deceased had been executed according to
law, and • verdict to that effect was returned by the jury.
A printed document was afterwards placed on the wall
near the lodge attesting, that the execution had taken
place. The body was subsequently buried within the
precincts of the prison.
A crowd of about tire hundred people assembled outside
to witness the hoisting of the Rag, and many of them
knowing the position of the van-house went near that
portion of the building, and they state that they distinctly
heard the drop fall A mounted messenger galloped 4
in the direction of Chard immediately the flag was
hoisted.

THS account of the flourishing state of the Bulgarian
Exchequer reads very hopefully for the future develop-
ment of the country and its resources. A reserve of
12,000,000 francs has been formed during the Russian
administration. This is available for public works, the
necessity of which is greatly felt, among them being the
construction of a harbour at Varna, the improvement of
Rustchuk harbour, and the formation of connecting
railway lines.
HORB fires are reported from Russia On Tuesday
there were two in Moscow, which destroyed eight houses.
On the fflerl a youth was arrested for an attempt at
hicendiariam. The chief of police has ordered all persona
above fourteen years of age to provide themselves with
certificates of residence. From the additional particular'
which we receive by special telegram from St. Petersburg
of the political trials at Kieff. it appears that of the two
persons who were recently condemned to he shot, one woe
a woman. The third prisoner, a student, was sentenced
to ten ream' hard labour in the mines.
