MAJOR CAMPBEIrt.—The Dublin Papers of the
24111 state," that the respite granted to this unfortn-
nate Officer, conviOed of the murder of Capt. Boyd,
'in a duel, at the late Assizes of Armagh, -having
expired on Tuesday, the 23d, an order was scant off
on that day, 'from Dublin Castle, to Armagh, for his
execution on the 24th; and the Dublin Papers of
the 25th state; that, by letters from Arinagh, re-
ceived that morning, this unhappy .Man underwent
the dreadful sentence of the law; on the Precediti

supposed tod great for female strength. ~ Ott her
arrival at Windsor, with a Memorial to his Majesty,
supplicating Mercy, it was eigliCo'elock, and his
Majesty had retired, to his apartment., Her Majesty,
notwithstanding, presented the Memorial that night,
and Mrs. C. received the kindest attention .from the
whole of the' Royal Family ; but it appears to have
been a case to which the Royal mercy could not
be extended; and the law has been accordingly per-
mitted to take its course.—Major Campbell tirade

with his family undera fictitious name' tor several
months at Chelsea; but his mind became so uneasy,
