The convict Jobe Richard Jefferey was mended in
front of Newgate, on Tuesday morning, at eight o'clock.
It will be remembered We in the middle of the night
he took hie child—a bon of six, to a cellar. The poor
child became terrified and Hinted, and while be was
insensible, his father pat • rope round his neck
and hang him to a poet. Siam hie medemna-
tioa, Jefferey has explored great oontrition. As
usual, many thousand assembled to Nee the banging.
Mr. Sheriff Waterlow and Mr. Sheriff Lyeett, with
Mr. Under Sheriff De Jersey, arrived at the gaol loon
after seven o'clock, and subsequently proceeded in
procession to the interior of Newgese, to superintend
the carrying oat of the law. Having peered through
a series of gloomy pongee, the proemial emerged
into an open mart-yard, at one angle of which is
situated the condemned sell. Simultaneously with
the entrance of the sheriffs at one gate, the convict,
in the Marge of a mole', emerged at an opposite one.
He walked very firmly, and having half eramed the yard,
he stopped, and bowed respectfully, with • smile on his
countsoance, to the sheriffs, and also to Yr. Jonas,
who stood by their side, end then passed on into the
pinioning room. Haring reached this gloomy apart.
went, be seated himself on a form, and was attended
by the Rev. Mr. Jam, the ordinary of the prison,
and the Rev. Mr. leCress, who stood all the time
with his hand on the wretched man's shoulder.
Upon the sheriffs reaching the apartment the heavy
Joor we. closed, and the prisoner then eoranienoed
thanking Mr. Imes, and the other officials for the
uniform kindness be had replayed sines 11. condemnation.
He then proceeded to pray most fervently, calling
upon Jesus to support him in his last zootnenre, and to
save his soul. He prayed that his wife and mother
might be forgiven, and that be, haring his faith in
Jesus Christ, might have power to meet death with
fortitude. The wretched man was thee silent for •
moment or two, and again closing his eyes and
raising his bead, he poured forth a aeries of ejacula-
tions for hie spiritual welfare, which were responded
to by all present in a solemn "Amen." Tbe chaplain
then addressed • few words of eonsolatioo to him,
which he appeared to bear with an expression
of delieht. At this moment the knell of the Prison
bell iodicated thst hie laat minutes had some, where-
upon be again called upon Christ for fortitude, and thee
moved forward with • firm step, prayiog senestly.
He ascended the scaffold with great firmness, and
a few . minutes afterwards was launched into eternity.
He struggled very much for some moments and then all
was over. Ho has eft no writings of any description
behind him, nor, as far as could be learned, any spesial
request to his relations- The body hang till nine
o'clock, when it was cut down, and interred within the
precincts; of the prime.
THE WEST RIDING REFORM DEMONSTRATION.

Another "Reform demonstration" took place on
Woodhouse moor, neer Leeds. cut Monday west It is
estimated that nearly 80,000 persons ware present.
There were five platforms erected, from each of which
three resolutions were moved, advocated, end serried.
At the evening meeting at the Town Hall, Loads,
Mr. Bright responded to an address which was pre-
sented to him. He said he wished them to bear in
mini that they must not think of carrying their pro-
joist to • successful issue by one throw of the shag silt
were, but that it meat be doe, by the combined and
resolute efforts of millions of the people—(eheers).
The noise of the West Riding had spoken
oat that day in a manner which would be
heard throughout the length and breadth of the land.
and their opponents would now see that they were
determined they would no longer be excluded (MO the
fraoobise—(bear and cheers). :yanking of the represen-
tation of the people, he contended that a fair represen-
tation was that which made •freetrountry free (chtsrs)
—and that Parliacoent was not entitled to the name of
that popular assembly unless the voles of the people was
beard within its walls. Parliament ought to represent
all classes of society—no matter whether a man had •
vote or not—in that all cleanse might feel the House
watched over his rights and intereste—(obeers). At
some length the bon, gentleman pointed out the great
inequalities which existed in the small boroughs, men-
tioning that at Brecon there were no more than 23D
voters. It was at such please as these that bribery and
corruption were encouraged and nursed, but this abom-
inable system would be swept away as soon as ever the
representation was extended to the working claws-
(cheers). The vast and coontlese multitude which had
assembled that afternoon on the Moor, assisted by
kindred gatherinp throughout the country, were deter-
mined to stand up for their rights—(eheers). The
working classes, to attain their object, mass combine
together and •shiscribe, nay, la penny per week or a
penny per month, which will rare • fund to enable
them to carry out the most gigantic agitation ever seen
—(cheer.). They most rely mainly upon themselves,
and, devind upon it, they would ultimately succeed.
By their united efforta they could for ever overthrow tie
dominion of the class, of whom they had so fait
reaecon to complain. Such meetings as these would
have great weight in future legislation, it biing
said that the Tories were already half repenting
of the course they bad paroaed last
Their (the Reformers') object was to make the Howie of
, Commons the popular representation of the People, and
Ito make freedom ever aura. Tbe hon, gentleman, who
I spoke nearly an hour, eat down amid loud cheers.
