TILE J' AL WORTH MURDERS.

EXECUTION OF YOUNGMAN—(THIS DAY).
This morning William Godfrey Youngman, only 25 years
of age--who was convicted at the last session of the Cen-
tral Criminal Court of the murder of his mother, his two
younger brothers, and Elizabeth Ann Streeter, to whom
he had promised marriage, the murders taking place at his
parents' residence in Manor-row, Wal worth—underwent
the extreme penalty of the law on the scaffold erected on
the top of the gateway of Horsemonger-lane Gaol, in the
presence of a vast concourse of spectators, between 30,000
and 40,000 persons having assembled at every available
point where a sight of the scaffold could be obtained, and

amongst the vast crowd a large number of females were
present.

The circumstances of these horrible murders and the con-
vict's subsequent conduct in denying that he was the mur-
derer, and charging his mother with having committed the
murder of the young woman and her two sons, and that he
only destroyed her in self-defence, are fresh in the recol-
lection of the public ; and it is melancholy to state that he
has adhered to that statement unto death. Although con-
stantly visited by the Rev. Mr. Jessop, the chaplain of the
gaol, and apparently paying the most serious attention to his
exhortations, he has as constantly denied that he was a murderer.
His conduct in prison has been most calm and decorous,

and it so continued to the last moment after he knew all

hope was gone. Yesterday his father, brother, and two
sisters visited him in his cell, in the presence of the chap-

lain and governor. The interview lasted about an hour
and a half, and a most painful scene took place. The,
wretched man, instead of showing contrition, upbraided his•
father in strong terms, said he had been a bad father to
him, a bad husband to his mother, and bad father to his
sisters. The father recriminated, when the convict in his
replies was quite in a rage, so muck so that the governor
and chaplain thought it right to put an end to, it, and
induced the father to withdraw from the room. After the
father was gone he became more calm, and conversed with
his brother and sisters generally, but positively denying
that he had committed the murder, in fact adhering to his
original statement ; he then complained bitterly of the con-
duct of the uncle of the unfortunate girl Streeter, Mr. Spice,
of the Green Dragon, Bermondsey-street, in stating on the
trial that he had told him, Youngman, that he would sooner
see his niece with a rope round her neck than she should
marry him. The convict added with warmth, "Do you
suppose a man like me could hear such words with-
out striking him to the earth. I am not a mur-
derer, but I could take his head off." After
this he became more calm, and burst into tears,
but all the remainder of his conversation was
a protestation of his innocence. His father again entered
the room, when, afl er a little persuasion on the part of his
sister, brother, and chaplain, he shook hands with his father
and kissed him ; he then kissed and embraced his brother
and sisters, and took his last farewell of.them. In two or
three hours (the wretched man having expressed a wish to
that effect) his brother brought his wife, the convict's sister-
in-law, and her child, and he had an interview with them
for half an hour ; he was quite calm, and appeared to be
much affected in embracing his little niece, but in all his
conversation he protested his innocence. After they had left
him he remained quietly reading some religious books
given him by the chaplain until ten o'clock, when he was
visited by the governor (Mr. Keene) and the chaplain.
They did all they could to induce him to make a confession,
but he only repeated what he had before stated. The
wretched man then joined in prayer with the chaplain in
apparent fervour, after which he was again appealed to to
confess; when he did not, as before, assert his innocence,
but maintained a strict silence, which the chaplain and the
governor at the time took as a tacit confession of his guilt,
and that his sentence was a just one. He was again
visited by the chaplain about 11 o'clock, after which the
wretched man retired to rest and slept soundly
during the night, and this morning after he arose
he partook of a hearty breakfast of cocoa and
bread and butter, and in fact asked for more. An ex-
traordinary incident may be here mentioned, showing that
the wretched man had contemplated an escape or self-
destruction. On Saturday evening he desired to go to the
closet, but it being dark the wardens would not let him go
without a light. One of them left the cell to fetch one
leaving a warden with him ; this warden also left the
room to go into another cell, when the prisoner watched
them, and knowing the cells would not open from the in-
side he rushed out and pushed the second warder into a
cell, but the door of the cell in which the first warder was
in did not catch the look. The prisoner then ran down the
corridor, flod down tho stars, but at the bottom
he was caught in the arms of a third warder,
and on his being taken back to the cell he said he only did

it for a spree; but in the interview with his father and
brother he said his intention was to hare thrown himself
over the staircase and destroy himself.

At 7 o'clock this morning Mr. Tessop, the chaplain,
♦isited him, and remained with him to the last. He
earnestly joined the rev, chaplain in prayer; and in the
hope at the last moment some confession would be obtained
the rev. gentleman said to him " Don't go out of the world
with a lie in your mouth," to which he immediately replied
" If you want me to tell a lie,it would be to say I did it." When
the fatal hour came for the procession to move he walked
with calm firmness to the arch under the gateway, shaking
hands with the warders. Calcraft here received and
pinioned him ; he was then formally delivered over to the
Sheriff and Under-Sheriff, Mr. Hart and Mr. Abbott, and
Mr. Garland, the chief constable of the Borough. The pro-
cession then moved up the staircase to the drop, the Rev.
Mr. Jessop reading the burial service; the wretched man
ascended the scaffold with a firm step, and placed himself
under the fatal beam; he joined the chaplain in prayer;
his last words were, " Thank you, Mr. Jessop, for your
kindness ; see my brother, and say I cent my love to him
and all." The cap being put over and the rope adjusted,
he shook hands with Calcraft, the fatal bolt was drawn, and
the wretched man launched into eternity. His struggles
were brief ; in an hour he was cut down.
The body will be buried this evening.

POLICE INTELLIGE.NCE-(THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
ROBBERY BY A. WORRMAN.—Benjamin Shaw, of 29,
Liquorpond-street, Gray's-inn-lane, a journeyman engra-
ver, was charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing a copper.
plate, &c., the property of his master, Mr. T. Wiltshire,
engraver and printer, IA, George-street, Grosvenor-square.
Mr. Wiltshire said the prisoner had been in his employ
as a printer, and, in consequence of his being spoken to by
his apprentice, he stopped the prisoner as he was leaving
his premises and charged him with robbing him, and in his
cap found a copperplate and some brass. The prisoner said
he was very sorry, and hoped he would not prosecute or
give him into custody.

The prosecutor having recommended the prisoner to
mercy, Mr. Beadon dealt with the case as one of unlawful
possession, and ordered the prisoner to pay 10s. or seven
days' imprisonment.

John Stuart, a lad who has been before convicted, way
charged with having in his possession a cape, believed to
be stoles.

The prisoner was stopped by Sergeant Cole, 23 C, some
others, having a large bundle in their possession, managing
to escape.

With the view that something may be heard of the rob,
bery, Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoner.

THAMES.

ANOTHER MEAT STEALER.—Martha Hay, a dirty.
bloated woman, who owned to 20 years of age, but was in
appearance 40, was charged with stealing two necks of
mutton, weighing 151b5., value 95., from the shop of Mr.
Charles Barmore, a butcher, in Charles-street, St. George-
in-the-Bast,

Mr. Barmore has been a very great sufferer by the de-
predations of female meat stealers, and many have been
convicted and sentenced to long terms of imprisonment for
stealing prime joints from his shop. Last night the pri-
soner entered the shop under pretence ofinquiring the:price
of meat, and took from a block a piece of mutton and put it
under her shawl. A boy named Taylor, who saw the rob-
bery committed, followed her and gave her into custody.
The mutton was taken from her.
The prisoner said she was drunk when she took the
meat, and recollected nothing at all about it.
Police Serjeant Copping, a detective officer, No. 3;K,
said the prisoner was a most incorrigible thief, and she had
been summarily convicted at the Woolwich Police Court
for stealing meat, and sentenced to two or three months
imprisonment and hard labour, and afterwards convicted at
the Worship-street Police Court for stealing a coat and £6,
and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour.

The prisoner was remanded until Friday next for the
purpose of obtaining the evidence of the officer who was
present at her last conviction, and it was intimated that
she would then be committed for trial at the Sessions.

The Corriere mercantile of Genoa says :—" It
appears from the last accounts from Naples, of the 28th
ult., that the King, seeing himself reduced to the last ex-
tremity, consulted M. Liborio Romano and General Pia-
nelli as to what he should do ; and that both of them
frankly declared that any further resistance would be use-
less, inasmuch as the troops could not be relied on, having
become favourable to Italian unity."

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—MoNDAY.

Many of our subscribers leaving for Warwick, up to the
time of the train starting we had a very good muster, but
there was not much business done. For the St. Leger,
Thormanby seemed rather " shaky ;" we saw 50 to 10 laid
against him more than once, and he ultimately settled down
to 4to 1 (offered). Sabreur was backed at sto 1, and Urn..
pire was very freely supported ; the last transaction we saw
booked about him was 7to 1. For the Leamington Stakes
Crater was (early in the day) backed at 4 to 1, and Wild
Rose at 5 to 1, but later on higher prices than these were
easily obtainable ; and Royal Sovereign was backed at 11
to 2. Toward the close Crater came again, but we did not
see less than sto 1 taken. Closing prices :

VICTORIA ROWING CLUB.

There was an exceedingly well-conducted and respectably
attended race of the above club from Barnes to Putney-
bridge, yesterday, with the following result :
White
H. Brand, H. Mills, H. Stranger, H. Woody ; F. Che-
quer, coxswain
Red
H. Mills, C. Littlejohn, J. Harmand, W, Wallington;
C. Lawson, coxswain.
Pink
G. Arnold, R. Morgan, T. Scarritt, W. Lloyd ; A. Pugh,
coxswain.

Two others started. It was a fine race between the first
two boats to Chiswick, when the winners drew a-head and
won by three lengths.

LONDON UNITY ROWING CLUB.

A most admirable race was rowed yesterday by the mem-
bers of the above well-known club, but owing to the great-
ness of the struggle it will have to be re-rowed. They
came in as follows :
Black

T. Selby, E. Anson, H. Watson, W. Cock, stroke ; H.
Tammage, coxswain.

Yellow

T. Cosnight, J. Medlar, J. Burrows, F. Cock, stroke; T.
Morton, coxswain.
Blue 0

S. Saundorson, F. Symes, J. Gaze, W. Wilkinson, stroke ;
H. Morton, coxswain.
Red

F. E. Walker, J. Balbrets, G. Hirst, G. Watson, stroke;
H. A. Portch, coxswain.

At the end of a great race, in which Red and Yellow
were nearly level, Black, with the most surprising power,
came, up, and unadvisedly endeavouring to pass between
the two others, fouled them, causing Yellow to cant on
Red, who at once stopped. The umpire disqualified Black,
and the race will be re-rowed, as before stated.
