forward state, and will be ready fur distribution before the end
of the present month) will contain voluminous details, the re-
sult ci minute personal inspection, to which the attention of
purchasers is particularly directed.

TURKISH SAILORS.—The absence of clean-
liness and comfort I experienced was amply compensated
by the insight which a week's close cinfinement with eight
or nine Tusks afforded me into their character and man-
ner?—an insight more extensive than had resulted from a
long residence at Pera. The imptess:on made by them
was highly favourable. The harmony with which they
lived together, captain and crew, like so many brothers;
the alacrity with which they went through the business of
the ship, and which was, no doubt, inspired by the interest
every man took in the success of the voyage ; and lastly,
the unfeigned piety wi ich appeared to influence all their
formed, certainly, very pleasing oh.. thoughts ald actions,
jects of contemplation.—Longtoorth's Year among the
Circassians. .

EFFECTS OF TERROR —At the execution of
a man at Coutances a short time since, a young man who
made his appearance for the first time on tl.e scaffold, as
assistant executioner, fainted on seeing the blood spout
from the neck of the criminal. When restored to anima.
tion he was found to have lost his reason, and has ever
since been confined in a madhouse, where no hopes of his
recovery are entertained,

Greenacre, executed for the rnurder of Hannah Brown.
Lees, executed for the murder of his wife.
Merchant, executed for the murder of Elizabeth
Paynton, in Cadogan-place ; and thong;; last, not least,
CourvaiLier, for the murder of Lord William Russell.
The beholder of the casts of these murderers is im-
mediately struck with the extraordinary thickness of
the lips of ell, with the exception of Lees, whose
mouth forms a singular contrast to that of any of the
rest of the fraternity, the lips being very thin. In-
deed, the countenance is like that of a person not at
all fitted for such company. A countryman, upon
looking at it the other dav, said, " For sartain, Sir, the
Jury was out in their judgment in hanging that man ;
he was a reg'lar good-tempered smoke-a-pipe fellow,
with whom It body might drink in the dark." Upon
being told that Lees was a person of that character,
but bad fallen a viaiaj,ia gin, 4 Aye," said the country-
man, "for sartainbloollvas not his habit. Gin might
ha' done it, but nature never did."

The cast of Greenacre resembles very strongly the
face of that monster, as it was some days before his exe-
cution, when he scorned to have made up his mind to
meet death boldly. There is a placid expression upon
the features, not unmixed with an expression of pain,
but not at all denoting the agony of mind with which
his countenance .was marked, when we saw him pass
from his chamber in the press-yard, now called " Green-
acre's room," to the spot on which he made his final
appearance. The upper lip of Greenacre was, if we
may judge. from the cast, thicker than any other lip on
the murderer's shelf. His nether lip fell in when the
strippers of the body were plastering the face, so that
those who had not frequently seen him, would fiad a
difficulty in ascertaining kis identity.
The casts of the Burkers would inspire horror, even
if the stranger who glanced his eye upon them were
told that the beings they represented had died in their
beds.

The cant of Courvcisier gives a face in which more
court ers could he read without drawing much upon the
im.Agioation. It looks as the original looked, while he
was writing cn a piece of paper for Sheriff Evans, the
words Written on the morning of my execution."
'nue is nothing remarkable in the two remaining
casts. The neck of.each of the seven casts is
dis-
tinct;), marked with the rope. The exhibition cannot
be easily forgotten.
