Christian, to 4-ebiga myself to my fate. For me. my
Lord, fallen and degraded. as I am, life has no allure.
'swots ; and a momentary pang will at once put an end
to thy mental agonies and to my earthly existence. But,
my Lord, I have numerous relations,—amongst them,
my dear and venerable mother,—whose feelings I re-
verence; and for their sakes, more than my own, I
venture to supplicate that I may not be doomed
to suffer a violent and ignominious death. If crime,
my Lord, can be atoned for by suffering, tin of-
fences, heavy as they are, have long been expiated,
not merely by tlrb overwhelming embarrassments of the
concern in which I was engaged, but by years of anxious
terror and agonizing apprehension; and if, my Lord,
the anguish of mind I have endured for the last sixteen
years of my life, and the peculiar circumstances in which
I have been !Aimed ever 'since I arrived at man's estate,
could be made known to my Most Gracious Sovereign,
I venture to hope that his Majeay's benevolent arid feel- .
ing heart would be mottled with compassion for my
situation, and that I should not be considered an object
wholly undeserving of the Royal clemency. May I,
therefore, my Lord, presume to solicit your Lordship's
humane interposition, to communicate, for his
.Majesty's
merciful consideration, the circumstances to which I
have alluded : and on behalf of my dearest telations, I
supplicate that the awful punishment of death may be
remitted." •

The unhappy man read audibli and distinctly, except
at that past of the address which alluded to his mother!
there his voice faultered, and he struck his hand forcibly
on the bar. When he concluded, he resumed the calm
demeanour which had previously characterized him.
The Recourse then passed upon Mr. Fauntleroy and the fol-
lowing other capital convicts the dreadful

volumes for the manner in which the Jail of Newsate is toyer -0 :.
