PROBERT'S LETTER TO. HIS WIFE.

MY DEAUEsT WIFE—I sit down with dread-
ful agitation to inform you that my fate is at length decided.
The Privy Council met this afternoon, and the Rev. Mr. Cot-.
ton, our Ordinary,.has just communicated to me the awful in-
telligence, that myself and three others are to suffer on Monday
morning. Oh ! my dear wife, the shock I experienced o:t
hearing it overpowered my feelings; it was quite unexpected,
as I was in hopes his Majesty might have been induced to havi
spared my life.—The thoughts that I must soon join the spirit
of that man whose blood crieth for vengeance, and. whose dying
declaration was, that he knew ere long I should follow litm—
I have often thought of his words, and trembled : from place
to place have I wandered, seeking rest, but 'found none; the
deed rose in my mind day and night, and my sleep has been
disturbed by imaginations frightful end horrible. It will soon
be finished, and the glove will soon close on my ; anal
I shall only 1 are to meet that di.tndful day when in the secrets
or all hearts will be disclosed, and every one will receive his
reward of his earthly existence. On that grind day may
receive the forgiveness of an offended GOD, ant hear that
heavenly benediction which will be pronounced on all those
who have repented with earnestness of their p•st sins. ' To
leave the world, to me will be gladness ; but you, my much-
loved injured wife, who will protect you ? Aly fate must
operate as a sting to you, and the remembrance of my critn9
sink into your heart. Rely in that than who halds out happi-
ness to all ; may lie cause you to forget one w:to brought in-
famy and disgrace upon you, and cause the remainder of your
days to pass in comfort. Pray to him for your unfortunate
husband. I shall see you before I die ; and I must now con.
dude as your wretched husband.
