EXECUTION OF THE MUDS MURDERER.

.
Charles Normingtoa, connoted at the early age
of eighteen of the murder Of Mr. Richard Broughton, at
Harehills, near Leeds, in the Bth of August lard, expiated
his crime on the scaffitid erected behind York Castle on
Saturday. The brutal sal tiering character of the murder
will have impressed fits deeneetheroses than the public recol-
lection, and it bastion imam to enumerate them. The
assoatiocer. Thaws Aeon", of Maltby, near Rotherham,
arrived in York is Friday night between 6 end 7 o'clock,
sad took up his residence for the night within the Castle, in
nethiness for his mapkieleat duty. The state of mind which
the religious hestrnerien imparted to the culprit had pro-
duced was of a very satisfactory character, sad he evinced
gloat peekaboo nth earnestness in his latest moments to
prepare for death. We have already said he was unable to
read or write. At nine o'clock on Friday evening he
asked one of the officers in charge to read to him the
scripture narrative of Joseph and his brethren ; alter which
he knelt down and eppesath to be engaged is sonnet peeper
for forgiveness. The chaplain, the Rev. J. C. Thompson,
was in attendance upon the unhappy criminal, and endea-
voured, with all the power and energy of which he was
capable, to exhort him to prepare for his awful fate. He was
then perfectly resigned, entertained not the slightest hope
that his life would be spared, and was continuous in his desire
to prepare for eternity. The chaplain then left him for the
night. Normington desired one of the turnkeys to write
for him a letter to Mr. Stephen English, the chief con-
stable of Leeds, who since his conviction has had one or two
interview, with Normiegton. In this communication he
again admitted that he had had a fair trial, said he was con-
tented in his mind, and was mach happier than on his trial.
He added, " I hope you will look after the other man, end
try to find him." He again offered up prays.' and about
Meths o'clock retired to rest be the lest thus on earth. He
slept soundly ail night—end as calmly se the man guiltless
of mime • in fact, so sound was his sleep that the Mims in
:zsliad to awake him about six o'clock this morning.
Ha dressed, Normington again offared up prayer, seemed
y calm and collected, and requested that the 16th
chapter of Lake (containing the stories of the Lest Sheep
and of the Prodigal Son) should be read to him, which was
of course done. At 20 themes to seven. Mr. Green,
the deputy-governor' arrived at the oceulemned
accp
and the culprit's prison dress was then chin
for the apparel be wore on his trial—s white j et
sad corduroy trousers. About seven o'clock, wed before the
debton were released from their wards into the castle yard,
Normington was removed from the condemned all to a room
on the other side of the prison, neer the scaffold. He walked
firmly, and appeared perfectly calm and prepared. The Rev.
Mr. Thompson again visited the criminal shortly after seven
o'clock, and remained with him, importing religious henna-
lion, until nearly nine o'clock. Tree erection of the sod-
fold—the preparation for the mournful event of the day—
was tram emmostl about four o'clock, and wee completed
&hotly before the culprit was removed from the condemned
cell. Opposite that portion of the castle where the twofold
is erected there is is open space called St. George's-Geld,
end hen, so early se sight o'clock, were assembled a few
of these =sloth te mare "good plum" to view the degrad-
ing specter& of the day. The crowd was gradually in-
creased by strivab, both by rail sad road, many of the
pedestrians, apparently °oiling, having no doubt travelled

The barley trade vas dull, and mote appear to be on*.tis
decline. Good samples for malting purposes are still quoted
high, prime lots fetching PO high as 43a., and other kinds 36..
to 40e. Grinding qualities are dull and the tura °keeper,
prices ranging from 265. to 335. per quarter. Oats are ex-
tremely difficnit to sell, and prices are about 6d. to ls. per
quarter cheaper, scarcely anything feeling higher than 275.
Beans are held firmly, and are, if anything, the turn dearer,
prime lota fetching 495. Per searoely inquired for, but
pekes are about the same.

KIR/LCRLDT, Dec. 31.—We have had a week of change-
able weather—the frost mostly gone on the surface, and yet
fir from being fresh below, so that ploughing cannot be pro-
ceeded with. Neither is it good weather for thrashing, so
that ordinary farming operations are much at a standstill.
At our county markets, this week, we had only a very mode-
rate quantity of barley and oats offering, bat more wheat
than of late. Hardly any change in prices since Wet week,
and farmers by no means anxious sellers. Here, tc-day, we
had a very small supply of barley, but good of wheat and
oats. Sales slow; prices much the same as last week.
Middling and inferior lower. Wheat, 39e. to 49e. per yr.;
barley, 29.. to 39.. ; W 4,2011. to 28s.

veries of grain front farmers, and by boat this week, and
our arrival/ from abroad are but modera'e. Oar market has
continued very quiet since the date of our last, but buy ets
have shown rather more disposition for boeinesa the peat day
or two. The mall quantity of ferment' wheat on sale has
realised former prices, and for foreign we have a slightly in-
creased inquiry. Barley and oatmeal unaltered in mine
with very little doing in both articles. Indian corn : Prim;
having given way a trifle since this day Wei:tight, a good
many mere buyers have appeared in the market, and a fair
quantity has changed hands at our gat:nations. The imports
