UMW/ —James Whalen, the murderer of Mr.
li'Oes, was emended on the morning of Ilfobruory 11 in
the town of Ottawa, Canada. An thernedree crowd
witnessed the esseutloo, and precautions wen taken to
prevent an attempt at rescue, which it was audiaipated
would be made. Whalen somported himself with much
firmness. lie was genially and neatly dressed, Mil
whee under the drop he reenethell perfeelly quiet wit:le
the noose was being adjusted. When asked by IA •
Sheriff if he had anything to say, he made tbe following
remark.: "I beg pardon for any offeoca I may bane
committed. I forgive all parties who have injured ma,
sad I ask forgiveness of all whom I may bam injured.
God save Ireland, and God save my soul r After the
execution the crowd dispersed quietly. A Mann was
seat to the gaol for the body of the dammed, but the
Sheriff declined to surrender it unless Kn. Whalen.
would undertake to inter the deemed privately. Tithe.
she refused to do, and the body was moordingly retained,
within the preeinote of the gaol.
lirirreatom Catne.—A mime has been soutatitted

Miller cam It memo that on the Paris sad Lyons •
; Railroad,. as on many English limes, the wines of the •
company s servants at the various steams are paid by
Werke, who travel at stated periods thug the Moe. On
the morning of Sunday week • certain Y. Morella, one
of the cowpony's paymasters, was travelling on big
rosier round betimes' Dijon and Basamea. He was sitt-
ing alma in • erthelamoompartment—the train 'magma
passing from the statics of Dunmire Mame of Francini
at the rate of some thirty miles an boor—when the
door of his carriage was palled mese. Two otrangere
entered suddenly, and, wittiest kis being able to offer
any resistance, threw him out of the carriage. The
oddest part of the story is, that M. MorieLle was lordly
injured by Ms fall. He was, however, so stunned and
bewildered that he did not reach the station of Francis,
which happened to be only • few huadred yards Irma
the spot where he was thrown oat, till three-quarters el
an hour after the train had left it. Tim telegraphic
wires were forthwith mt in motioa, but no tracemald be
found of the men who had perpetrated the crime. K.
Merielle's portfolio ma found in the carriage where her
had been meted, but minus some eleven hundred pounds
that contained. A number of business of Ho-
use to any one bet the owner, had been 11k untouched.
Altogether the story is singular; and K. Morielle can.
I hardly complain if various solutions are offered to
I amount for the mystery.
