THE CONWAY MURDER..—Soon after eight o'clock on
Wednesday morning, John Roberts, the murderer of
Jesse Roberts, at the village of Roe, near Conway, in
May last, underwent the extreme penalty of the law.
The execution took place within the gaol yard, an aper-
ture being made in the .5% -all, by means of which alone
the unhappy culprit and h is executioner were exposed to
public gaze. Thousands of people were assembled, and
lined the quay walls, occui3ied the shipping on the river,
and every available spot. On the scaffold were the
deputy-sheriff, Mr. H. B. Roberts, the governor of the
gaol, the chaplain, and the ielebrated philanthropist, Mr.
Wright, of Manchester. I.lds gentleman and the chap-
lain, the Rev. T. Thomas, v sere unceasing in their minis-
trations towards the culprit, who manifested sincere
repentance, confessing the justice of his sentence, and
acknowledging the treachei y he had shown towards the
murdered man, who had fi !Nequently written letters for
him, and shown him muc h kindness. When on the
drop the unfortunate man, addressing the crowd, said,
" Good people, take wan ling by me ; this comes of
Sabbath-breaking and poac !ling. All that I said about
William Evans (the man wi aom he had accused of hav-
ing bribed him to the deed) is false. He had no hand
in the murder." He then sr bid, " Jesus, remember me !"
and continued in murmur& I prayer for a few moments,
when, at a signal from the Sheriff, the drop fell. The
executioner was from York, and it is thought is inex-
perienced, as the knot was ,tk.‘,cl on the wrong side, and
above the ear. Death did nof ensue until several mi-
nutes'
severe convulsive sti •uggle. The body, after
hanging an hour, was cut de 'wn and buried within the
prison.

table persons of both sexes. .1 It 8 o'clock the criminals
were brought into the Court-h o use, accompanied by Mr.
Reid, chaplain of the gaol, a; Id Captain Mullen, the
governor. After the lapse of a few seconds the signal
was given, and the fatal bolt vi as drawn. The struggles
of the wretched creatures wi e painful and protracted,
especially in the case of the woman, with whom life
