the Chapd to the place of execution, at the exterior of the north-
*estate part tithe Cantle. Alleluia walked with a hesitating step,
and appeared dreadfully dismayed ; Alexander was more collected,
and his lips appeared as if moving in silent prayer.
At half-past seven o'clock precisely,. a window which opens on
hinges like a door, and which led ortmediatefy to the sea:fold,
opened, and the moment of expiation had strived. No bell tolled.
or was there any other funeral rite to mark the approach of these
murderers death. All was conducto.d with imposing silence, and
not a murmar of pity appeared to escape from tire crowd. Every
thing hying arranged, the cars were drawn over their eyes. The
Chaplain read r. part of the burial service, the drop tCll, and tie
wretebt d men were launched into eternity. After their bodies had
hung the yowl time, they were cut down, and delivered over to the
surgeons fa dissection.

The two unhappy culprit•, (Mills and Gardiner) left for execu-

the law on Saturday, about twelve o'clock. They were brought to
the drop in front of the Comity Gaol, and after a short interval
spent in prayer. were lunched into eteroity. An immense con-
course of spectivors were present. at amongst them, it is said,
the father and umilier of coo.. of the unfortunate men. It is stated
that they both acknowledged the jostimosuf their at mence.

condemnation of the wretch. d man who murdered the unfortunate
Mr. Fidget; It was thought that no jury in Bermuda would have
found him guilty, but the evidence was an strong that it was found
impossible to acquit him he was aceordittgly sentenced to be
ingisl. The lirclutencon, and the Rev. Messrs. Lough and Potts,
attended him after his condemnation widi great zeal. and endea-
v mred earnestly to bring hint to a proper frame of mind, but their
efforts were not so successful as could he wi•hcd. It is so many
years %Mee an execution has taken place in these islands, that the
office of Jack Ketch is unknown, and it was supposed that there
would have been great difficulty in finding a person who would
perform the office of that rrsprrfahlr character. But such bad been
the behaviour of the wretched criminal to his servants, and those
over whom he had ever Mal any power, that when it came to the
point, a great many people came forward, who were ready to hang
hint with the greatest pleasure; and the man who did hang him
was nn old apprentice, with whom he had parted in anger some
Years since. It was thought nee. twerp to disguise the eftecutioner.
but just as he was tying the fatal knot, his mask fell off; end the
ill-toted man immediately recognised him. The expression of their
countenances at that moment farmed a subject worthy the pencil
of Wilkie. Upwards of three thousand people were assembled to
witness the awful scene, upon most of whourit appeared to pro-
duce a very powerful effect. The greatest order prevailed, and
the multitude retired peaceably to their own homes.

THE EXECUTION OF
ALEXANDER AND MICHAEL APKEAND,

FOR THE MURDER AT WINTON.

LANCASTEI, AUGUST 21.

At the earliest moment of the dawn of this morning, the great
roads leading to this town presented groups of people hurrying to
the place of execution at the Castle, to witness the last moments of
these two wretched murderers; and it would appear as if the neigh.
bouring townahips bad sent forth their entire population, from the
dense mass that thronged the leading thoroughfares. By six
o'clock the hills contiguous, and the immense area behind the Cas-
tle, St. Mary's Church-yard, and every elevation that commanded a
view of the gallows, were thicliy occupied. and in many places by
(dusters of horsemen, who evidently had travelled a considerable dis-
tance to be present at the awful example. The fatal engine was
erected under the ramparts of the Castle, opposite St. Mary's
Church-yard, and was surrounded by the Sherifte javelimanen,
bearing halberds.
. The early hour of seven o'clock was appointed for the execution,
in order that the whole might be over before the Judges ar.
rived at the Courts, as their Itm6lhipe would have to pass that
particular spot.
It may be here necessary, in detailing the conduct of these cri-
minals, to describe their demeanour after condemnation, in order
Ito show the great obduracy of heart of Michael M'Keand. Af-
ter receiving sentence, he protested his innocence in the dock,
and when removed to the dungeon in the place called the " Hound.
house" of the Castle' bitterly accused his brother for not popport-
ing his statement. He was placed in a cell by himself, and
Alexander was also contir.7ted to a remote cell, in order that nei-
ther could have communication with any living being, 'and they
were only interrupted by the visits of tile turnkey upon going hts
stated rounds,

MARKETS.

(From the New Orkans Price Current, July 51
Our market remains much the same as no.iced in our last, with
the exception of being rather more steady. In the beginning of the
...reek the weather was very wet ; since when it has become dry aid
warm.
The Alisaissipi has only fallen two inches since our last, and the
Ohio river, by the last account, continues too low for steam-boats
of heavy burden to navigate. Our city may be fairly considered
healthy, there being but few strangers in It at present.
COTTON has and a moderate demand at the prices of last week,
which are continued. The sales were between 3 and 4000 hale' of
the usual descriptions, and would have no doubt been more exten-
sive, but for the great exertions made in shipping former pure habil,
of which many warehouses and presses are incumbered.

During Friday night and Saturday morning, the Rev. IL Row-
ley, the Chaphin of the Celtle, visited them, having, indeed, been
with them an the previous evening, and found elicited much al-
tered in appearance ; he still persisted in hi. statement that he wits
not the men who stabbed Mrs. Blear!, and declared that he knew
nothing of his brother'e murderous intention until all was over.
Ile requested pens, ink, and paper, and wrote several letters to fe-
male' of Ilia acquaintance, and also, during the forenoon, he had in-
terviews with two women. After this the Rev. Divine exhorted
him to prayer, but he seemed reckless, and declared again that he
rue perfectly innocent, and ought not to suff:te insinuating that his
brother had alone perpetrated the foul deed.
In consequence of this some inquiries were made, and, indeed,
Mrs. Bleats was again questioned as to her identity of Michael.
She persisted in declaring that he was, the man that nl e met on
the stairs (while running to the assistance of the murdered woman),
and his the hand that wounded her. She said she was positive she
was not mistaken. as she had a candle in her hand, nod they were
abreast of each other. Other lam have been elicited, which leave
no doubt of Michael having taken the active pan in the horrible
transaction deposed to upon the trial.
Alexander fel•Keand had long since prepared himself for the
wont, and bad fixed his attention entirely upon religious exercises.
upon being interned of the statements of his unhappy brother, he
exclaimed. " 0 God, forgive him ! he is guilty, and well he knows
it: it was he who stabbed Mrs. Blears below stain, while I mur-
dered the woman above in the room, foe which I hope God will for-
give are ; I was drunk when I did it." He declined stating any
thing as to his motives, and it was judged prudent not to disturb
him by further questions. This wretched man appeared to possess
much !determination and tirnine.es of nerve, and, throughout the
whole of the awful scene which we describe, was cairn and penitent.
Ile declined seeing any person, and expressed a wish not to be
disturbed by any visitor whatsoever, and begged the Reverend
Clutplain to have it made :mown that this WAS his first crime, as
it had been circutated he had been concerned in a murder and
robberies before. Yesterday these unhappy brothers met in the
Chapel for the first Gate since their curt emotion, but Michael
averted his head, and seemed tle.ierent of avoiding any converts.
tion or notice of Alexander. They were placed in a pew by
themselves. The service was commenced by the usual prayers, in
which Alexander joined with much apparent fervour. Michael
also appeared devoutly fixed upon a p eyer-book, hut when he
raised his head t.r look round, his sullen and disturbed look be.
tokened the distress of his natal. The Rev. Chaplain ascended
the pulpit,and in a peculiarly impressive manner read the Litany and
prayers for the dead; and at the words, " 0 God, save those in tri-
bulation. and let thy mercy shine upon those that need it," Alexander
raised his hands and covered his face, seemingly in a great agony of
grief; he repeated aloud the responses. During the reading of rite
ritnal and Litany, several of the prisoners burst into tears, and all
appeared as if impressed with the affecting solemnity of the occasion.
The Chaplain then read the text front the 10th verse of the sth
chapter of the Apostle Paul, 2d Epistle to the Corinthians—" For
we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every
one mny receive the things dente in his body according to that he
bath done, whether it be good or bad ;" from which text the Rev.
Gentlemen delivered a most excellent discourse, pointing out the
effects of crime, end its punishment hereafter. After the service
Michael was again asked if he persisted in his story, and, he doing
so, was informed of the utter impossibility of its being true, and
was advised not to persevere in fad ehood, when he so shortly would
be in eternity. lie however again repeated the story, with much
indifference of master, nod WAS conducted back In his cell. At
nine o'clock last night the Chaplain again visited hun, but no ap-
parent charge of manner was manifest. although he seemed atten-
tively perusing a book of prayer; be presented to his statement of
innocence. and declared he would do so to the last. As there was no
poen,bility of working any change in the wretched man, he was
locked up for the night.
At sit o'clock this morning the two criminals were led to the
' Chapel, and received the Sacrament, and remained in prayer for
above an hour. Alexander exclaimed, " O God, have mercy on
me!" almost incensantly,
they were pinioned,
slichael was quite sullen, and seemed
scarcely able to stand or walk. A few minutes after seven o'clock
and the Under-Sheriff and his officers entered
the Chapel and demanded the culprits. Mr. Thomas Higgins,
the ("accrue, caused the )I.l(eands to advance to the Chapel.dooe,

upwaids rate high in proportion to the inferior description, on ac-
count of their scarcity. Scarcely any lower Brown Sugars offered
under 625. The Bat badoes public sale to-day went off 2s. higher,
the 700 air,s of Bengsls at the previous prices good and fine white
365. 6d. a 375. The Market opened this morning with very great
firmness, and the holders generally asked a further advance of Is.
a 2a. per cwt. which prevented the usual sales early in the day. At
the close of the Market the purchases by private contract were esti-
mated at 2000 Wis. generally at prices 2s. per cwt. higher. The
cause of the improvement of the Sugar Market to-day is the report
of distillation from Grain being prohibited in Ireland, the steady
and extensive demand for the home consumption, and also the con-
tinued request for export. The late deliveries frum the ware-
houses are fully as extensive as last year, averaging nearly 4000
hhds. each week ; the difference of the stock this and last year is
now only about 4000 casks.

The prices are about Itis. per cwt. lower. In the Refined Market
last week there was a steady and extensive demand, and the quan-
tity of goods t fleeing was inadequate to the request : yesterday there
was again a great revival in the trade, and a general advance took
place; no Lumps offered under 765. and for which there was a ge-
neral request; also for Bastards for exports, which are IN. higher.
The Grocers purchased extensively for the home trade, at also ad-
vancing prices; Molasses were 275. The Relined Market is again
brisk, this morning scarcely any goods are left on sale ; at the close
of the day no Lut»ps offer under 17s. The Grocers continue their
purchases of tine good., Molasses are 275. In Foreign Sugars no
sales are reported, the small parcel of Bengal Sugars at public sale
last week went off at the previous prices.
TOBACCO.—The sales of Tobacco since Tuesday last are con-
fined to small parcels to the trade ; the holders, however, evince no
inclination to force sales, and yesterday and this forenoon the in-
quiries are renewed, but the buyers offer prices a shade under the
currency, which the holders refuse to accept.
SALTPETRE —Yes•er.lay an exteneive den-and for Saltre're
took place, end the prices. which were last week 19s. 61 and 205.,
advanced to 21a. and 21s. 6.1.
COTTON.--The demand for Cotton has been general and ex-
tensive; some Bengali and Slams sold id. higher, but generally
the Market pricer are unvaried, the holders meeting the demand
freely ; the purchases far the week ending last night are 2200 Bags:
the particulars are 1400 Sneers 4ad. a 51d.; 700 Bengali 411 a 50.;
20 Boweds ; 20 Madras 611 duty paid 20 Denteraraa 911 The
Cotton Market to-day appeared checked by the reported sale at the
East India Hoare 15th proximo. It is understood 51100 Bags Ben-
gals, 4000 Begs Stints, 1600 Madras will he put up, and the
quantity probably will be still further increased.
(mirk:E.—After the day of our publication (Tuesday) last
week, St. Domingo fell from 50s. to 411 s. and 435. 61 The British
Plantation gave way in the same proportion ; the latter has not only
recovered this depression, but we think at the Friday's public sale
went higher than any previous prices; the Market looked exceed-
ly firm, St. Domingo remained steady at 47a. 6d. a dik 6(1. The
two public sales this forenoon consisted of 132 casks and bags Bri•

RUM, BRANDY, and HOLLANDS.— The Ruin Market
was exceedingly firm last week, but the transactions were not ex-
tensive, owing to the holders advancing the pricer. The Mark t
yesterday received a farther briskness from the advance in the Corn
Market; a parcel of proof Leeward. realized 2e. Id. Brandy is

ago. All the particulars of this drea.deul deed have not yet trans-
pired; but it appears that motives not dissimilar to those by which
Mr. Bruant was actuated drove the wretched Mr. B. to the perpe-
tration of the crime. The latter had been niarried for many years
to a lady whose virtuous conduct had never been questioned by the
public, or doubted by her husband, until within th-se seven or eight
months. A traveller who was on a visit to this touter. and eh,

municated their suspicions to the -husband, and it is said that, hm.
ing watched his wife with extraordinary care, he, on one occasion,
fuund her alone with the above-mentioned person ; but it is tot
stated whether Mr. B— de:wed her under such circumstances
as to make him believe that he had suffered in his honour; it is, nit
the contrary, more naturally conjectured that no such feelings cotna
have existed at the time, as, from that period till. within these fee
days, they had lived together, it not on the moat friendly terra, at
least no molent altercations were remarked to have occurred betwur

and that if it were possible to read into the hearts of those *he

were supposed to have fixed their sear. It was asked whelk;
this remark alluded in any way to his wife, but no positively
satisfactory answer was obtained. Loot Thursday Mr. 8., who hie,

violent scream was shortly after heard; the persons in the house

ceived several stabs in the neck and bosom, and a large gash in the
