The Constitutionnel asserts, that a Consul-General
and a Vice-Consul have been appointed by the Trench
Government for the Republic of Hayti. The former is
said to be the Gentleman who was French Consul at
Rio luieiro; He is to enjoy an income of 50,000
francs. The Vice-Consul is the well-known literary
tharacter, MOLLIEN, who wrote Travels through Co-
lombia ; and his salary is 25,000 francs.
EXECUTION.—The 17th inst. Cornelius Keating, who
had been (in conjunction with a man named Wall, trans-
posted) tried and convicted at the last Assizes, for at-
tempting the life of Mr. Bourke, and attacking his habi-
tation at Rathnasere, near Ratbkeale, was executed at
Limerick. He most strongly • protested hi innocence
to the Sheriff and those immediately surrounding the
drop. He then turned to the populace, whom he ad-
dressed in. the Irish language, with great facility and
correctness, and in a style above the common peasantry.
He substentially avowed his innocence, but added the
following admonition :—" Boys, do not keep arms on
any account, lawfully or unlawfully. Be attentive to
the voice of your Clergy—mind your religious duties—
and do not neglect receiving the Sacrament once a year.
And now, before I die, I beg you may all go upon your
knees, and pray to the ALMIGHTY GOD for my soul:'
Simultaneously the populace knelt down, and in loud
ejaculations continued in prayer. The executioner ad-
justed the rope, and drew the cap over hi:, face. Keating
begged the Clergyman to remain near him; hut the
fatal moment having arrived, the Clergyman gently
stepped off the scaffold, and the drop fell, when the
unfortunate man was launched into eternity. He died
lm ost without a struggle.
TOurists in all parts of the kingdom will find Gray's
Rook of Reeds a very useful travelling Companion, possessing, as it
does, peculiar features of utility and ready reference; its plan alto.
;;ether novel, and distinct from every other work on the subject.
.eor instance, it brings into one point of view the various lines of
',Jute leading to any required point of distance; and the Index is
13 arranged as to enable a direct and immediate reference to any re-
quired route, an important feature which has long been wanted in
tinerat int. Besides which, it contains several new lines of road, and
inch information relative to the roads, not to be found in any other
work ; whilst the readiness of its arrangement, and its compression
within the limits of a pocket volume, accommodate it to all kinds
,f excursions, and render it an useful auxiliary to every other Road
Book extant. It is further accompanied with a complete County
das, geographically arranged in the order of the Counties, thus
:.•:_rbining the advantages of a large folding Map without its in-
esn icaiences.—Published by Snrawoon and Co. price 12s• half-
:3,4.J, or with the Maps coloured, 15s.
