THE„ EXP4,III34,_,I4ONANY EVENING, NOV ER 19, IsBo.

Till STEPNEY MTIRDER.

MECUTION OF MlTLLD7B.—crins DAY.)

The last sentence of the law Was this mein ag
anted into effect egos James Manias, who was esmisted
at the last erosion of the Central Criminal Court of the
murder of Mary Fthalery, a widow lady, living at Ore m.
road, Stepney, under circumstance@ of great barbarity.
The facts bare been so recently before the public that
will be unmoormiry to recapitulate them, and although the
primer has all aloe( asserted his itutocenes, and to the last
moment of his existence did so in • qualified manner, the
olden= against him was perfectly conclusive to the minds
of the jury and the Chief Baron who tried the sea.
The primmer, who is • Roma catholic, has bees attended
Mee his coovictioe by the Rev. Mr. O'Oallseser, • catholic
print, and besmears to have paid peat attention to hi
exhortations. Whether be made any oonfersion or statement
than the one that will be found subjoined, to this gen-
tleman, will of exam remain • secret, but in aU
the interviews that the authorities of the prison and the
sheriffs have had with him he has pertinaciously insisted
upon his innocence, and declared that his was not the hand
by which the deed was committed. Hs on several 00C11.110111
argued the matter with considerable warmth, remarking that
Emma., whom he so unjustly and cruelly charged with
the murder in the first instance, only established an alibi
for • certain period, and that it did not prove hie
innocence conclusively. It is most satisfactory to find that
at the last moment be made • statement acquitting
Emma of any participation in the murder ; and this, uo
doubt, amounted to some extent to an admission el his own
guilt, for if he knew that Emma was innocent, it follows
that he must have been aware who the real culprit was.
The prisoner slept a eonsidenthie time on Sunday eight,
and at an early hour he was visited by Mr. O'Chllagher
till the execution. Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Abbe, Mr.
Sheri.f Lusk, Mr. Uoder.Sheriff Eagletoo, and Mr. Under-
Sheriff Gammon, arrived at the prison at hall-past toren
o'clock, and the prisoner was brought from his cell.
He appeased quite calm and collected, sad walked
with a Urns step up to Mr. Aldermen sad Sheriff Abbiee,
mod handed hint a written paper. The prisoner had
previously expressed his Intention of addressing the crowd,
but it WWI understood that Mr. O'Caligher dissuaded him
from doing so, and he drew up this statement instead.
After he had handed the paper to the sheriff, he said that
kis wife and ohilthen were reduced to great di-
tress "in consequence of this," and he hoped the charitable
and religious public would do something for them. Shortly
before thefatel time arrived, Mr. Alderman and Sheriff
Abbess asked the primer whether there was anything else
that be wished to make public, and he said "No, he only
hoped the public would du something for his poor wife and
family, who were reduced to great distress, and
thrown out of work in consequence of this charge."
Calcraft, the executioner, was now introduced; and after
he bad pinioned the culprit, the latter addressed Mr.
Sheriff Lusk, and remindedhan that be had promised to do
what he could for his family, and the worthy sheriff re-
plied that ho should not forget the promise he hail made.
The usual procession was then formed, which proceeded
to the scaffold. The culprit walked up the steps without
aey assistance and calmly surveyed the crowd. It
was expected that there wood have been some
Newton of feeling on the part of the spectators,
bat this was Dot the case ; indeed the crowd was
much more orderly and decorous then is casual on such aces-
Muss. When all the rosemary preliminaries had been gone
through, the drop fell and the prisoner appeared to be dead
almost in an instant.

The crowd that was assembled was immense. It was
estimated variously, by competent judges, to consist of from
twenty to twenty-five thalami poems.
This following is a copy of the statement referred
to, which the culprit handed to Mr. Alderman and Seenff
AbLin as lie was about to proceed to the scaffold :
" lemmata, November IS, 1860.
" I. Jason Mullin; do maks this true statement against
the charge of murder, which bas been committed on the
night of the 13th of Aneuel epee Mary Ernsley, at Groves
mail, Stormy, and for which crime I was charged and
found guilty through the mot false and grim perjury
that was ever gine in • court of junta. Ido solemnly
decLire before my God and the public that I returned
from my day's work on Meader evening, August the
13th, between the hone of ell and seven, as sworn to by
• man named Tyne'', where I had been ilme day at wort,
at ;.i. 1, Terepaammee, Collingwoodotreet, Menem,
when I returned home as above stated, and remained is the
room with my two some talkie( till sapper, and after the{
retired to bed ; well do decker, 1 did not leave my bed tin
8 o'clock the seat monies, the 14th.
" I also selentaly declare that the two witneeres from
Hones, Raytown sod Mitchell tee dock Labourer—l
melees to my God that every word they have ewura is
tonally false mod estrum They MAN theta felesamis
me in the hope of getting many-4he prise of my
as was stated by my high-taloned 01111111 miler, Mr.
Best, sad that mean Mitchell ham been the imam of
making my wife a widow and my sheik= fathorisso.
There was • boot produced which was found is the dust
hole of the home is Orfordatnese Chelsea. when I bad
lodged, bet I had left that hems three weeks before. This
said boot belonged to • men named Mr. Malkaary, who
lived is the treat parlour, but left some time
before mid who since lived in Prioceestreet, Drury-Line,
This man came forward on Friday evening, but too lea
to give hie evidence to prove that ilia shoe was his, and
that he bad cat it away when ho left the house. This
slim may have had great effect on the minds of the
jury. I wlreenlyr swear I never sew it until it was
produced at the Theme. Police-court. As regards Ser-
geant Tanner's evidence, be did not do me justice as to
what took Oen et the shed. I first drew hie attention to
some bricks that were in a heap, and then to the flagstone,
soil the deputise was the only thug he mentioned, in
order to make it appear that I must have some knowledge
of it, although I believe Ecanetto be innocent of the murder
of Mn. Penney.
Mae last-mentioned words, " Although I believe Emms
to be innocent of the murder of Mrs. Linsley," appeased to
have been written only just before the statement was
handed to the she. iff. Something else had previously been
written, which was erased, and the words stated inserted in
il their stead.)
.1 The statement then proceeds—" I declare I never came
out of my room horn between six and seven on the Mon ay
evening, the 13th, until I got up from my bed on Tuesday,
1 the 14th. my two sons sleeping le the tome room with me,
and they both swore at the trial that they did so. I ask
I any man with a family if any cheer wan brought against
them, however unjust that charge might be, who they
could apply to under such eireurnirtencea, except
their own family, to Blear them of it! My chil-
dren proved the truth, but the troth would not
do—the troth wns not believed, but those who proved
nothing bet lies. and swore my life away by the
blackest and fonlest perjury ever given. I make
this statement in order that tin public may know
that my life has been token away by the most
greme end false evidence ever given in • court of jtutice, all
through the horn of getting moon. Imy that they have
no right to any part of the reward, and I hope the, will
get none of it. I beg most sincerely that all the religious
and charitable people of England will extend their hand
to my poor widow and fatherless children, in order that
they may gain • livelihood for themselves. The Rev.
Mr. O'Calleglier of No. n, Finsbury circus, has kindly ma
muted to receive any donations for my poor family, whose.
in great destitution thrush this shade. My best thanks
are duo to Mr. Hubert Wood. of No. 4, Coleman-street-
buildings, my solicitor, and Counsellor Rest for the kind
attention paid to my cese. and I also thank the two sheriffs,
the governor, and Dr. Gibson.

A o extract from a letter written by one of the officers of
Leicester Gaol, where the prisoner was confined under a
sentence of six yearn' penal servitude, wee also comment-
ated to the reporters, as bearing epos the character of the
primmer. It was to the following effect :
! " His *seduce here was very bad, lied he required con-
' stain watching by the officers. He was removed to NAOMI('
with mother menet as incorrigible in Nov., 1854. While
crossing the Dartmoor-hills, on account of the difficult
read, it was usual to let the wievieta walk up one or two

blow struck me on the left cheek bens and almost broke it,
and I shell hare the mark. Not content with striking mem
epproschiug the prison he ' acted drunk,' laying, ' I will
have that jecket off your beck, somehow.' It was seen,
however, by all the authorities that ha wee only acting."
The body was out cloven at 9 o'nuck, sad is the cowls of
the clay was burned in the interior of the poi.

The public are aware that the prisoner, through the
agency of he solicitor, Mr. Hubert Wood, and the sheriffs,
has sect several statements to the Home fiseretaty, alleging
avian, facie which he urged SP koding to throw a doubt
upon the propriety of the vsedict of the fury, the priacipalone

they were in anecdotic* at the pill early on Saterday

napalmed to have bees esed as a pocket-book. The primmer,
from hie former position as • police-condeble, wee well
aware that all these articles were forfeited to the Crown
upon his conviction, but he applied to the sheriffs as • peat
favour to allow him to distribute them among his fanny,
and the request was at once complied with, and the sheriffs
sent • commendation to the officer requesting him to bring
all the arteries mentioned to the gaol, cad be accordingly
did so on Saturday afternoon, cad placed them in the
hand. of Mr. Jonas, the governor. The prisoner was subee-
gamely asked bow he wished the articles to be distri-
buted, and he requested that the pure and the coin,
upon which he seemed, for some lesson or other, to
set peat store, should he given to his wife, and
the other things to be divided &roam his children. He wee
promised that hie request should be complied with, and he
appeared pleased at the ready compliance with his wields.
The prisoner has been visited titres times darting the week
by hi.
wife and family. and at the last interview that took
betweeniplace them he gave to each of his children, and Woo
his wife, a lock of hie hair. It appears that he was airy
anziote that the plasterer's hammer which was found at his
lodging, and with which instrument, it was supposed, the
murder was effected, should be gives to his eldest eon, but
this has not yet bees dons, and the harmer still remains in
the posseasion of the ofnopr who found it.
There was no condemned sermon yesterday ; indeed, the
system of having a sermon specially preached on the day
be:ore • prisoner's execution has been abolished for many
yearn. In former times the culprit win made • complete
,how of on the Sunday before his execution, but under the
prevent improved system, even if the prisoner bad attended
the ordinary chapel service, he would have been placed in
such a position that no one could see him. The prisoner,
however, is • Roman catholic, and be has never even been
to chapel since his conviction.

An interesting ceremony took pito" at Owens
College, Manchester, on Saturday. The alumni, past and
present, of that institution, deeply sensible of the Mt-
portant services rendered to the college, from its In-
fancy down to the present time, by Protestor Scott, deter-
mined that ► bust of their distinguished teacher should be
planted in the ball, there to remain as a tangible record of their
high appreciation of the labours and genius of one of the
most profound thinkers of the age. The bust, which has
been admirably executed by Yr. Liefchild, was on Saturday
formally presented to the trailer el the college.

At a meeting of the Royal Dublin Society, held
on Saturday, one of its officials informed the omnell that

unanimously to accept the invitation of the Royal Dublin
Society to hold their next annual congress in Dublin,
whereupon it was resolved—" That it be referred to the
honorary officers to con rider and report upon the steps
asseseary to be taken is order to secure the most efficient
reception of that body.°
The Californian papers speak of a curious traffic
between San Francisco and Hong Hoag. It appears that
the emigration companies at the latter port agree to take
back the remains of defunct Chinamen, and one ship alone
had 200 corpses boxed up in her hold.
Letters from Munich state that the Castle of
Bittentein, in the vicinity of the Bavarian capital, is being

of the most prominent emaciates of the Young Ire-1

CONIMITAL OP • YOUNG WONAN TOR MAN-
si.Aucirrua. —On Saturday • fashionably-deemed and good-
looking young swim, about 2,3 years of age, was bre t
before the South Shropshire magistrates at C nor
with " killing and slaying Christopher " a
tayrrld years of age. It appeared from the evidence that
the prisoner had for some time filled the situation of house-
k to the landlord of the New Inn, at the village of
th near Bridgnorth. The landlord had also
lately placed • young man in the house to manage it during!
his absence. In addition to this parson and the house-
keeper there was also the decased, who acted as errand
boy. For some time past the housekeeper had treated the
lad very cruelly, frequently striking him, and always on the
head. On Sunday, the 21et of October, she broke a large
jug over his head. On the following Wednesday, the 21th,
she told him to do some work comsat-tad with the house,
end be not immediately complying, she seized a retry roll-
ing pia, and struck him several blows on the head with it.
Not content with this, she afterwards struck him on the
same place with the sharp edge of a metal crean: sieve.
The led then said be would stay no longer in the inn, and
went home to his mother's home. Here he was so ill that
he was obliged to be placed in bed ; and ou medical assatenes
being sent for, and the boy's head examioed, it was found to
be ia a friOthd state. On one part of it a large 'theme had
farmed, which, on being cut, left • space on the skull the
size of a crows piece, completely bars. He remained in •
comicse state up to Sunday lest, when he died. On a
poet *orient examinetina being made, a quantity of bloody
serum wee found in the cavity of the brain, and the brain
was highly congested. Au inquest was held on the body
on Friday last, and • verdict of " Manslaughter " returned
against the prisoner, and on tlaturdity she was committed
by the magistrates to Shrewebury gaol, to there await her
trial at the Dent assizes.—Manchester Examiner.
THE Id Aiffl•CßE ALT D•It•OCUS.—A traveller, in
whose veracity we place full confidence, and who bas jest
retuimil from Syria, assures us that the providential aassppse
of the Jews from the massacre recently p
masons wee chiefly owing to the following :
After the slaughter of the Christians the fanatics meditated
an attack on the Jews. When deliberating on the subject la
sheik whoa held in great intimation, and whom the Jews
had Lefriended, strongly opposed the measure' it: al. I lowed themselves to be dissuaded for a moment. the
next evening they resumed their deliberations. Once more
the sheik succeeded in dimmed* them. Another day thus
elapsed. Fur the third time, the munierers now met more
firmly than ever, resolved on the massacre of the Jews. Thal
sheik. seeing that his opposition would be overruled, pre-1
tended to acquiesce in their determination, and only asked
them to ascertain previously whether the proposed attack
' was the will of Ood. Fur this purpose he propeesd that the
trigger of a loadt VI with which one the fanatics was
armed should be If it went oil at once the project

of the divine dimpprolation. So said, to dour,. Fo4°'
lately for the Hebrews, the pistol did not go off. The fa-
natics dispersed once mole. Meanwhile help came. The

MONEY MARKET-(THIS DAY.)

Two o'Chocra.

News of a rise of I per cent. in the French
funds has occasioned a somewhat more
favourable impression this morning with re-
gard to the immediate course of French
finance. Within the last hour, accordingly,
an improvement of 4 per cent. has occurred in
Consols, notwithstanding the dulnees of business.
The other departments of the Stook Exchange are
likewise very inactive, but firmness generally pre-
vails. One of the principal features is a rise in
Turkish Bonds. Orsnd Trunk of Canada Railway
stock is rather flatter.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter'sl
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were
,quoted 70fr. 07c., showing an improvement of
per cent. since Saturday.
Consols are officially marked 93/ and * for
money, and 931 for the account. The present
quotations are 9n tofor cash, and
931 " buyers," for the 6th of December.
The official business report is as follows :—Bank
Stock, 233, 235 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 911, I,
1 ; New Three per Cents., 911, {I ; India
Stock, 2221, 2241 ; ditto Five per Cent.
Stook, 1869, 1031 ; ditto Four per Cent.
Debentures, 1858, 96*, 1 ; ditto 1859, 96} ; ditto
Bonds, 12s. die. ; Five per Cent. " enfaoed " rupee
paper, 941 ; Exchequer Bills, ss. dia.
The foreign stock market is very inactive, but
firm. Turkish Bonds are in demand, and buoyant.
The Loan of 1864 has risen fully 1 per cent.,
and that of 1868, 1 to 1 per cent.

It is understood that of the 18,000,0001. to which
the bullion in the Bank of France has been reduced,
according to the latest accounts (the last published
return having stated it at 17,380,000/.) only
4,000,0001. is in gold, the rest consisting of silver.
This circumstance explains the eagerness of the
establishment to draw in gold, which is wanted for
the export demand.
No bullion was withdrawn from the Bank on Satur-
day, the large remittances from Australia sup-
plying the present wants of exporters to the Conti-
nent. The 322,0001. by the Water Nymph has
reached London, and will be sent abroad early this
week.

With regard to the transactions of the Bank of
Frame, the circular of Messrs. Joseph Travers and
Sons observes :—" Our commercial readers will un-
derstand the simple method by which the Bank of
France contrives to borrow gold from us. They
contract with some banking establishment at Paris
to obtain a specified amount ; this firm draws or
buys bills on London houses at 60 or 90 days, as
the case may be. These bills are taken to the dis-
count establishments here, notes fare obtained foe
them, the notes are taken to the Bank for gold, and
the gold is shipped to Franco. When the dis-
counted bills arrive at maturity, tbeßank of France
will have to provide for them, and we shall then be
re-imbursed the fall amount now withdrawn."
There is obviously, however, nothing to prevent
the operation from being repeated. We believe that
a not iaconsiderable proportion of the paper re-
ferred to is discounted by the Bank of England
itself.

It appears from the advice. from Constantinople
that strong hopes continued to be entertained of
the successful negotiation of the loan which is
sought to be introduced on the Paris market.
Here, however, opinion is very adverse to the
transaction ; and it is believed that the French
government will lend no countenance to any pro-
ject calculated to aggravate the embarrassments of
the money market.
