EXECUTION OF FIVE MEN.

(From the Tipperary Free Press of Wednazday.)

On Saturday, John Lonergan, Philip Lonergan,
John Green, James Byrne, and Thomas Brien, the
five unfortunate men who had been convicted on
Thursday morning, in Clonmel, of aiding and assist-
ing in the murder of Mr. Barry, were executed at
Ardfinnan. It was thought proper that an example
should be male of the murderers of Mr. Barry, as it
was well known that his cruel assassination was in
consequence of his taking leec; given up by their
former tenant, and which New; deemed by those un-
happy wretches, who confederated for the irpose
of destroying him, es an offence which could only be
expiated by the forfeiture of his life. The critae of
threatening tenants, and obliging landlords to keep
their lands unoccupied, •is so prevalent, the: it wee
considered right, those who have been deluded either
into the countenancing, or for joining in the prac-
tices' of those illegal associations, should be shown
the frightful and dreadful termination of such prac-
tices, and how inevitably they must lead those who
connect themselves with there to a disgraceful
death. Instead, therefore, of the five murderers of
Mr. Barry being executed where they had been
convicted, in Clonmel, it was decided that they
should be brought to Ardfinnan, a place in
the vicinity of the spot where the horrid crime
had been cemmitted, and where all the families of
these wretched men resided. In pursuance of this
determination, at ten o'clock on Saturday morning
the five men were led out of the jail, and placed in
cars—upon the first car were bound together Philip
Lonergan, John Green, and Thomas Brien ; and on
the second car the old man James Byrne, and Jelee.
Lonergan. The prisoners on the first car were at-
tended by the Rev. Edward Brennan and those on
the second by the Rev. John Baldwin. The me-
lancholy procession then moved in the following
order :—First a troop of the Scots Greve, stationed
at Caher, then a party of the mounted constables
next the two chaise., in .ivhich were the Sheriff
and his assistants— then the unfortunate men, on
two cars, completely surrounded by the Police, and
after them the materials of the scaffolding on which
the criminals every to be executed—the whole pro-
cession was closed by a second troop of Scots Greys.
The entire attention of all the prisoners seemed to
be completely' absorbed in religious exercises, or
devoted to the exhortations of the two Clergymen
who attended them. There is but one exception to
this remark, and that occurred when the father of the
prisoner, John Green, who was hastening into town
to take a last farewell of his child, met the fatal pro-
cession on its way to Ardfinnan. The unfortunate man
was so horror-stricken at the sight, that he fell from his
horse—the accident was perceived by the wretched
young man, Green, who shrieked, and could not he
pacified, until he was assured that some one had
gone to the assistance of his father.—At Ardfinnan,
the procession was met at two o'clock by the
shrieking and distracted relatives of the prisoners.
About all hour was occupied in the erecting in
Ardfinnan Green of the scaffold; when it was
ascended by the criminals, and the arrangements
having been completed, and the ropes fastened round
their necks, Philip Lonergan, John Green, Thomas
Brien, and James Byrne, declared their innocence of
the crime for which they were about to suffer; but
John Lonergan acknowledged his guilt, and declared
the other four were not at the murder. A few mi-
nutes were devoted to prayer, and then those sve
wretched beings were launched into eternity. Their
frames quivered with mortal agony for a few minutes,
and all then were " still as death." After hanging
for the usual time, the bodies were then removed to
Cashel Infirmary, in order that they might, according
to their sentence, be dissected.

present course, many impediments impede Mr. Can-
ning's progress : but yet, whatever be the issue, we
think that it was on the part of his Majesty more
manly, and on the part of his Minister more dutiful
and loyal, to try the present plan. Of the arrange-
ments which are now making, we believe we may
mention the following :—Lord Granville to take the
Foreign Office, and Mr. Robinson, with a Peerage,
the Colonial; and Lord Dudley is to be Privy Seal.
In these appointments, which are but few, we see
nothing to reprehend. Tho private friendship of a
Minister should, at least, not be injurious to those
whom it embraces, provided their talents he equal
to the situations in which they are placed. Lord
Dudley is well known to be a man of ability, and
the two others were integral parts of the last Admi-
nistration. Mx usqui, therefore, hut no farther.—

Every dog has his day ; but with Lord Charles
Somerset we suspect that night is fast approach-
of which we spoke itt yester-

day's paper, as coming from the inhabitants of
the Cape of Good Hope, and as bearing 1,400
signatures, has, we are informed, actually arrived
in England ; but our informant misled us as to
the number of signatures, which appear to ex-
ceed 2,000. There is another petition, addres-
sed by Mr. Bishop Burnett to the House of
Commons, transmitted through the Right Hon.
the Speaker, and enumerating a lowg catalogue of
charges against the late Governor of that colony.
If these, or almost any one of them, be estab-
lished
th by evidence, there is an end of "My Lord
ac
e Governor." It is certainly unfortunate for
a
the character of Lord Bathurst,
and we may
dd, for the cause of publicustice, that the

when a person has once asserted what is untrue, he
will stick to it ever afterwards. Having a sincere
regard for Mr. Peel, we aimost wish he had the
benefit of a Catholic casuist for a few weeks to
probe his conscience a little. With respect to Mr.
Canning, Lord Harrowby, Messrs. Robinson, Hus-
kisson, and Wynn, we trust they will be able to dis-
appoint their opponents. The nation is decidedly
with them. There is not a man with a drop of
English blood in his veins, who would not feel
deeply mortified to think that his country was re-
duced so low, that an old Chancellor, who knows

as much of politics as he does of Arabic, two or
three stagers like Lords Westmorland,' Bathurst,
and Bexley, should, by base Borough interest, suc-
ceed in impeding the wheels of Government, and in
wresting from their opponents the helm of State.—
Morn/lig Chronicle.

It appears by the Court Circular, published in
another part of our paper, that the Lord Chan-
cellor has actually sent in his resignation, but
that he will continue to preside in the Court of
Chancery for one month, that he may give his
decision on those cases which are now ripe for
judgment. We regret his Lordship's retirement
from office, because we are persuaded that at no
period was the office of Chancellor filled by a
man who took more pains in investigating, tho-
roughly sifting both sides of the question laid
before him, and finally giving a judgment on the
merits of the case—so sound that not one of his
decisions has ever been yet impeached. We
speak upon the authority of Barristers in the
Court of Chancery, when we say that he never
yet delivered a judgment in any case which was
not perfectly just. His Lordship too has ano-
ther paramount claim to our estimation—he re-
tires with the general character of unsullied inte-
grity.—lt may be briefly said of him, that none
of his judgments have been impeached, nor his
integrity called into question. This is as much
as can be said of any man, inure particularly of
a Chancellor, whose extent of business and of
influence must naturally subject him to imputa-
tions and surmises of a less qualified nature.—
That his Lordship has been slow in examining
the merits of a case is generally admitted ; but
when we consider to what a length cases in
Chancery may he carried, on account of the
number of parties who may have an interest in
them, sonic of whom may die in different stages
of the proceedings, and therefore induce the de-
lay of having their successors brought before the
Court, that justice may be dealt out to all—and
when we consider the ingenuity of Counsel in
drawing long bills, which must necessarily cause
long answers to be put in in reply—not to mention
the very long and ingenious speeches with which
three or four Counsel on each side will occupy
his Lordship's attention—when we reflect upon
this, and the mass of other important business
which he has to transact, we do not feel sur-
prise, so much at what Lord Eldon leaves undone,
as at the quantity of business which he contrives
to get through. From these considerations we
have no hesitation in stating that his Lordship will,
carry with him into retirement the respect and es-
teem of the country at large, and that his decisions
will go down to posterity as rules and precedents
by which causes will be determined. We see,
also, by the Court Circular, that Mr. Peel has
sent in his resignation; We are sorry for this,
and we are sure that the country generally will
sympathise in our regret. This Right Hon.
Gentleman has been for some time past indus-
triously and meritoriously engaged in getting rid
of sonic of the obsolete old statutes with which
we have been so much embarrassed, and substi-
tuting in their place others of a plain, intelli-
gible, and useful description. We had hoped
that he would, as Secretary for the Home De-
partment, have continued to discharge a duty so
becoming. his situation, and that he would pro-
ceed in his career of amending our system of ju-
risprudence. The Evening Papers of yesterday
have again repeated that the Duke of Wellington
has retired from the Cabinet ; and some of them
intimate that he will resign the office of Com-
mander-in-Chief also. Should his Grace retire
from both situations, we think it not improbable
that the Duke of Cambridge will succeed him as
Commander-in-Chief. It would also appear, by

mitted to paper is more likely to be accurate and
authentic than what is casually committed to the
memory, and afterwards reported through various
hands, with incessant variations. We shall be anx-
ious to see how the twelve Judges deal with this
part of the argument. They cannot blink it, even
if they would ; and, though some of their Lordships
are, we know, no great admirers of the Press, we
have a full confidence in their wisdom and integrity,
and that they will not leave the subject involved in
the dilemma we have stated—the only way to avoid
which, we apprehend, would be, if they declared the
publication of report* to be illegal, to render the
hearing and repeating them no less so ; which would
necessarily close the doors of every Court of Justice
in the kingdom against all but the parties engaged
in them, and their immediate advocates and agents
—a consummation neither very devoutly to be
wished, nor very likely to take place.--/bid.

(From the New London Price Current of Friday.)
St;GAR.—The demand for Muscovades this week
has been very limited, no further reduction in the
prices can be stated; indeed, if there is any change
it is rather an improvement, as the holders continue
to watch the Mauritius Sugar sales, and the one of
yesterday went off with some briskness, and the
prices were Is. per cwt. higher than the last sale;
about 7,000 bags Mauritius Sugar have been die-
posed of during the week. In the refined market
the prices this week have rather given way; the
low goods for shipping at the reduction of about
6d. per cwt. and one or two purchases are reported
even below this quotation, but it is not a general'
currency. Grocery goods are is. lower. Molasses
have given way 6d. By public sale this week, 516
chests good white Havannah were mostly taken in,
but afterwards disposed of at 435. a 475.; the Siam
Sugars sold at the previous prices.

off heavily at the prices of last sale, and about 6d. to
9d. per lb. lower than the previous rates by private
contract; but owing to accounts from Bengal to the
end of December being received, confirming the fall-
ing off of the crop 30,100 maunds being received
against 69,200 at the same period the preceding
year, and also on account of extensive buyers
coming forward, the remainder of the sale went
off with much briskness and generally sixpence
to one shilling higher than last sale, or about
the previous prices by private contract. The 1,071
chests of the East India Company's sold at last sale
prices to 6d. higher : the private trade, consisting
of 1,506 chests, were tirmly supported by the pro-
prietors ; and about 300 chests Bengal and Benaries,
and 300 chests Oude, were bought in 3d. to Is.
above the January sale prices: the Madras sold at
the rates of last sale. The attendance of buyers
from the country was numerous, and most of the
purchases appeared to be made for home consump-
tion or re-sale; the shippers have taken compara-
tively a very small proportion.

There is not in England so fine a road as that
from Vittoria to Madrid, a distance of about '2OO English
miles. It would be hardly proper to call this a 'Maca-
damized road, because the mode of making and repairing
it, although similar to that adopted by Macadam, was, I
believe, practised in Spain before Macadam was born._
Here the repairs are managed with greater care even than
in England. When any part of the road becomes faulty,
a bed of stones is not laid upon it, as in England, until
the foundation, to the depth of eighteen inches, is entirely
dug out. The hole is then filled up with stones broken,
as in England, and the bed of the road becomes as firm or
firmer than ever. In order to support the expense of re-
pairs, there are toll-houses on the road, but they are not
quite so high in their charges as in England—sixpence for
every hundred miles will clear a traveller on horseback.—
The usual toll is three quartos (about one penny English),
an average, once in fifteen miles. You
amaynd this

this, that the poor fellows who labour
on the roads are not paid at a very high rate. The in-
spectors of the roads receive about one shilling and sixpence
per day.
