gaol, to see the awful sentence of the law carried
into effect upon Matthew and Henry Pinnell,
were, at the last Assizes, convicted of highway rob'
bery, accompanied by circumstances of such sggra;
vation, that the Learned Judge (Sir James parka)
though deeply aff«cted in passing sentence lir°
them, admonished them not to entertain the slightest
hope of mercy being extended to them in this work
This humane injunction was not applied in vain'
for, from the fatal hour their dreadful doom was Pr
flounced, until the moment in which they expiate
their offences by an ignominious death, they were
deeply and earnestly engaged in making their peace
with Heaven. They ascended the platform, Winch
was erected over the new lodge in front of tiled
prison, at a quarter' before twelve o'clock, an
appeared entirely occupied in prayer and pre-
paration for the awful change which they "'I:-
about to undergo, and in a few moments theit
mortal career terminated. They were remark:
ably powerful men. Matthew was nearly six feet
in height, and well-proportioeled. Henry was sho!tec
in stature but of much more muscular formation
The latter had apparently turned round. to address
his brother at the instant when the drop fell, and int
consequence of this change of his position the knod
of the rope got rather to the back of his neck, b 613
t
he suffered somewhat more in the last agony r,1.;
a few convulsive struggles and all was over.
crowd assembled on this occasion was more nu°ls
rous than has been witnessed for some time; of ;
strange to say, the majority of the persons tol
drawn together to behold two of their fellow-creai
tures suffer the death of ignominy, was composedto
females—maNy of whom requested permissi°ll
touch the bodies, almost as soon as life was extinct;
in the hope doubtless of obtaining " a chortle'
cure" for some disease. About half an hour after Oa
drop fell several heavy peals of distant thunder Were
heard.—Chellenhain Journal.

EXTRAORDINARY LEAP OF A HOBO'
On Monday evening a gentleman and lady were do°
out of a gig in the neighbourhood of Low-hill, but fir
what cause we have hot been able to learn. The ge"et:
man, who, we understand, was Mr. Guy, of Duke-street'received, we regret to state, considerable bodily initr7r;
but not such as to endanger his life. The horse, 'lk, ~14
freed from the controul of the bridle, dashed off,
himself loose of every portion of the' gig, except t""
splinter-bar and shafts, and with these trailing aftee:thilf;
galloped down London-road, but on reaching neelli
the corner of Greek-street, he, by some means had h.'
career directed towards the wall, and, incredible as the eir;
cumetance may appear, sprung over the iron railing in fe,:d
of the house, ten doors from the above street; and desoenn,e
into the area, which was about five feet.belew the level of n't
footwalk. The horse Leatly cleared the palisades, bat
so the splinter-bar, it caught in the railing, and irnP7i,t
the descent of the hind part of the animal until ite,wei4sji
brought down a portion of the iron work, together
the masonry to which it was attached, and all fell into be
hole, thus the horse was entrapped, and its bearil°7o
course terminated, though standing upon its legs a+ 3i 0
an enclosed stall. To extricate the unexpected visiterd
became necessary to pull down the rest of the railing sio
stone work, and by the application of ropes be winvilleet
up from his singular situation, apparently very btujest
worse for the dangerous and surprising feats he
performed.—Liverpool Courier.
