Et tiCUTION POR MORDER.—Morsilay, pursuant to his
sentence, John Snrith, aged 24 years, a 'farmer's servant,
was executed at Lincoln Castle. The culprit was tried
on the Friday preceding for adMinistering" poison to a
young woman at Alford, in Lincoln...hire. We gave the
melancholy facts of this case to the Public, in detail, at
the time they occurred: The young woman, who co-
habited with him %vas advanced seven months in reg.,
nancy at the tine he committed the atrocious decd,
and they were to have been married on the ensuing
week. He purchased a pound of arsenic of an apothe.
cary at Ilford, and mixed it with some flour, which he
gave her to make cakes w ; she and four others par-
took of the cakes, and-she expired in great agony
nest day. Three of the other four recovere,l, after en-
daring great pliti and sickness ; and the fourth, a
I;ariie,l woman, is in a declining state, and .c.artro.!
survive long from the effects of the injury, which pr,-
trabry destroyed the coat of her stomach. The culprit
'on Sunday last admitted "his guilt, and dew ibed the
mode in which he committed tile•offence., His ignorance
was so great that he appeared not to have an idea be-
yond the conattott lahotir of the field, and of eating,
chinking-, and sleeping. There was •an extrar•niin ny
apathy about him to the moment of fis exit, when he.
admitted the justice of his sentence, and was lattiched
into eternity, in the pi e;.enee of a considerable concomor
of persons. body was given to the surgeons of the
unary for dissection.
