THE DELI: DEO IRISH COINERS,

The three Irishmen lately stated to have been inveigled by
conspirators, and convicted of coining, still remain in New gate.
'l•he following is the account they 2i% e of the u•ansartion :
Thomas Connell, who is about 2-1 of aie, and James
who is About 20, are oat sec of Headfort, in the west 411
Ireland; And have been in England about ten months. They
left home in consequence of the dilicillty of obtaining an em-
ployment, And the poverty of wages when employed, which, in
that part of Ireland, is generally not more than utl, or bd. a day
for the most severe agricultural labour. Hence they. einignittel,
and in the hope of hieing enabled, through a better remuneration
fur their labour in this country, to spare something for their
aged parents (each of which is encumbered with a large family)
•t.t assist in paying their rent. !loth are extremely ignoront,
s.nd, as may be presumed, very imperfectly acquainted with
llieEnglish language.. . _

Drools Reardon, who is about IS sears of age, was born in
the sicinity of 'roam, and was urged to emigrate by the Same
considerations as the other two. He had been only three weeks
In England at the time he was taken into costotiy. To this
youth, chose simplicity is obvious, one of the conspirators
t Bally 1 first applied at the market in Cheapsitle, where the
dry looosirers assemble to wait fur cmplo)ment. But Reardon
being totally ignorant of the English i:1117,11/Itte, Quin became
Ilia interpreter. Barry then asked Quin himself a Moller lie
wanted a jolt, telling Min that he would also hire his coimia talon,.
Connell, who stood beside him. The three were accordingly
engaged ; but each hat ing a hod and shovel, in expectation of
being emplossed by bricklayers, for whom they usually worked,
they were told by Barry, and two of the tither conspirators, to
leave their hods and shovels at home, as they would have no
occasion fur them. The conspirators accompanied the prison-
rs for some distance on their way home to Golderelatte, where
they lodged. On leaving them, the conspirators desired the
prisoners to get some breakfast, and tat meet them again at nine
o'clock at Cripplegate church. The parties met according to
uppointruent, and proceeded together in the room in door-yard,
where they were immediately set to work in tiling copper.
This copper was cut by scissors into the tiwin of buttons, by
Harry and another conspirator, who is not yet in custody. Twn
of the prisoners were furnished with a file each, and directed
to file the edges of these copper pieces, while the third was oc-
cupied in rubbing each piece with sand paper. Thus the con-
spirators anti the prisoners were employed till about one o'clock,
when the prisonor (Connell) expressed a wish to go with his
comrades to dinner. But, upon this expression, Barry anal his
ce. ladjutors said they should not go, as they had previa' of fur
them a better dinner than they were likely to get at bonne.
Vith the professed view of in ging this dinner, Barry iii c-
diately left the room, and the other conspiratorsflilloweal, say-
hag that they would return with the dinner. But the conspira-
tors had not Leen absent above five minutes when Brock aual
Pelham, with the Police officer, Taylor, entered, and took the
prisoners Mtn custody.
Such is the istranionatits statement of tlin prisoners, confirmed,
as we have already said, in es ery material point by the confes-
sion of the conspirators. '1 he prisoner's satisfactorily account
for tilt 0.41111er in whirl' they II:1Se been employed move their
arrival in England, an several respectable bricklayers, under
-whom Connell and Quin worked, have voluntarily come for-
ward to bear testimony tat their industry amok hoot:sty. Reardon,
having been only three weeks in England, is nut of course SO
will known.

On Monday night, or Tuesday morning, the wise-vaults in Davis-
street, 11._skeles-ispuire, were broke open and robbed of SO dozen of the
beat wine. The robbers broke open three stromg 4biors ; and after that
Vase is no doubt but that they regaled themselves profusely with tone
of the moat choice wines, smoked tobacco, &c. they had also °perks'. a
munber of bottles of wine, to :iscrrtain the best sorts to carry off; for
which purpose they had put a truck together in the cellar, and used it
to rare) off their booty, which they did publicly on 'Tuesday morning,
on the truck. The persona who saw them taking away the wire had
so smincion of their being robbers, altliom.fh at an early hour, form the
tablie uomner in which they carried it .itE; they appearing to la wel
acquainted with the premises, and putting the truck together with the
peoest ease, as if they had been accustomed to it.
Mr. the Barrister, of berjeant'irlfm, bits met with an ar-
aident. by which he broke his leg. and is now oontinial to his room at

die. to witness the exeetiti tttt of Joseph Boyce, Wi!hone

His koyal Hight', As the Prince Regent was most graciously
pleased to respite Esther Sampson.
leph Boyer, who was an aged man. was found guilty on the
Ist June i.f having forged a certain deed for the transfer of
11441. 3s. 111 d. with intent (in the first countl to defiant! the
Bank ; anti in the second count, to defraud John Tacker and
Wimstnallhonc.
Woo. Gregory, who was a genteel yosing man, of respectable
conneetions, was convicted on the same day of having forged
transfer of 2:11. in the 5 per Cent. Annuities, which sum stood
in the name of Eliza Coward, to whom he professed a strong
attachment of love.

Geo? ge Alnyeack was convicted on the 4th of June, of having
forged, and published as time, a 21. note.
They were confined (hiring the night in one cell, and were
attended by the Rev. Mr. Cotton and the Rev. Nlr. Rndge.
These three unfortunate men have cmiducted tiwinselves
with the most exemplary propriety, devoting the whole of their
time to prayer, and scree truly penitent for the various sins of
which they had been guilty; and particularly Gregory., who
was very young, and by a melancholy coincidence suffered the
sentence of the law on his birth-day. In allusion to this cir-
cumstance he observed to NI r. Rudge, jest lii-fore his if on* were
knocked off, " I shall spend it joyfully ; for I am going, I trust,
to keep it everlastingly with my Saviour and God."
IVith respect to Boyer, as some apprehensions had at first
been entertained, that lie %%mild not leave the world in that fit
and desirable frame of mind to which lw was event nally brought,
we give the thllowilig letter, which, in the name of himself and
his unhappy companions, lie addressed to the Clergyman (the
Rev. James Midge) by whom they hate been attended since the
order for their execution was received :

DEAR Sia,—T sincerely beg pardon for taking this liberty to write
to you, but my present situation. 1 humbly trust, will he accepted by
you as an excuse. Ni doubt but you have heard that the Report has
come here, aad that Gregory, with Maycock, and myself are to
suffer on Saturday next. We therefore most humbly beg to tell you,
that we hope you will favour us with your kind advice to direct us in
the best road to heaven. We are well satisfied no Minister is more
capable, and we sincerely hope that you will be kind enough to come
to our relict' and assistance. I remain, dear Sir, praying to God to
have you always in his holy keeping.
Your obedient, humble Servant.
Rev. James Midge, Limehouse, J. BOYCE.

At eight o'clock the .Under Sheriff, followed by a few friends,
proceeded to the Press-yard. The unhappy delinquents were
most strenuously employed iu singing psalms and spiritual songs:
and it was tomid necessary to re.ort to persmuiion to get them
from the cell.

At twenty minutes past eight they were ushered to the fatal
scaffold. (:rectory evidently laboured undera strong sensation
of the fear of death, which he exhibited to the last moment :
on being turned off, he by some means loosened nis hands, and
world have succeeded in removing his cap, had not theCxecn-
tioner pulled him by the ICKA: he died in great agony. Boyce
manifested considerable agitation, and died rather hard.; but
May cock parted this transitory life without a struggle or sigh.

After hanging the usual hour, their bodies were cut down, and
consigned over to their friends fir interment.

Gentlemen took their scats within the Bar of the Court of King's
Bench.

On Monday an Inquest waF held at the Spread Eagle, Millbank, on
the laxly of a woman who was found drowned in the river. .1. Tipper
deposed, that, as he was going to work, he perceived a person opposite
the bout-house. apparently walking in the water. In a few minutes
after a man requested his assistance ; saying, a woman was drowning.
He instantly assisted in bringing her on shore. apparently quite dead.
B. Beveridge was on Ranelagii Bridge, and observing a person strug-
gling on the surface of the water. he called for :ix-is-tame, and pulled off
his clothes, in hopes of getting her out; but not being able to reach a
boat, he was compelled to go to the boat-house, ;Ind with assistance
brought the deceased on shore. A surgeon was instantly sent for, but
he did not conic. Witness believed when he first saw the body it was
alive : but no means were tried to restore life. W. Boyc and J. Baker
confirmed the foregoing evidence. H. Clark searched the body. She
had no property ; but had a letter, signed " .1. Franklin the re-
mainder could not he read. The Coroner lamented that the means re-
ecrnmenoled by the Humane Society had not been tried; and the Jury
returned their cerdiet—Found Drowned.

iag, he insisted on his going to his cottage, at Brompton, to sce his
children, whore be said a soldier war killing. Witness aceompanied
him, and on his arrival at the door, the deceased grasped his hand, and
fell dead in his arms. Mr. hiller, surgeon, of Piccadilly, stated, that:
a few eLays bethre the fatal event, the deceased laboured under violent
nervous irritation ( and, from his observations of the body after his de.
taw, he had no doubt his death was -occasioned by the rupture of a
'blood-vessel. Verdiet—Hied by the Visitation of Hod.
