During the Ciller Justece,hip of the late Loril Er,
LENIOROUOH, there was a horse cause, to which a certain Privy
Counsellor was a party, and who, as of right, took his seat upon
the bench at the hearing, and there (while his adversary's Coun.
sel told his tale) ventured .a whisper of remark to the (Thief Justice.
you again address me, Sir, I shall give you in custody of
..the
Marshal." It was a settler fur him, and, as it turned out, of his
cause—for be lost It.

one day a storm of wind and rain had dr'ven an rn•
tire regiment Of Wesindriater VolUnteers, although under atin;,tto
-seek for shelter within Westminster Hall, when Lord F.t.tar•
itaaovan's attention was attracted by the clatter of the musketry.
4, wile is theca se of that interruption, usher?" vehemently de-
manded the Judge. " Ily Lud, it is a volunteer regiment exorcising,
your Lordship " " Exorcising! we will see who is best at that—
go, Siriatid intorm the regiment that, if it depott not instantly, I
shall conimit it to the custody of the tipstaff." It was really Sim
to see the legal but unniiiitary speed with which the battalion Med
tiff at the first report- It was a word id command they bad no
- inclination to disobey, and readily did they dare the fury eDthe

The deceased wax a fellow servant of Irons' in the (A.
mil). of a G. ntlesoart affo. tune, residing a-Camber* ell ;
and it appeared at the' trial on Friday last, they had
continually quartelled, and in a parraism of rage he
murdered her, by shooting her with a. pistol.
Immediately atter his conviction at 'Kingston, he Iv
taken back to Horsemonger-lsne Gnal by Mr. W
the keeper, and in the course of the journevisaid,
that the deceased woman had driven him .almos,
to madness by her continual abase and threats ;•ar:cl
being of an irritable disposition, he determined upon
destroying her, thereto: e procu: ea the pistol with which
the dreadful crime was aczomplisl7ed. 'Fits was the
only assignable motive which. the wretched.man gay,-
for tak:ng away the life of a fellow creature. He admitted
(hat he deserved death, - and said he, was prepared to
meet it. The Rev. Mr.M A Ntl, Chaplaixof-the Primo, bl-
ended him from the first day of hisi'mprisonment ; and
by the assiduous exercise of religious exhortation,'pre-
pared the unhappy than for the sdrful change that
awaited him. He appeared perfectly. resigned and pe.
nitent, artd more than once said he -wished it was all
over, alluding to -his execution. This Morning, at seven
o'clock, he was reTioved from the cells And conductei
to the Chapel, where he remained, praying with tervnor
and devotion, until about tight .o'clOck,.when the Rev.
Chaplain administered the Sacrament, after which he
continued praying with peat earnestness. About ball-
ast eight o'clock -the Rev. Chaplain commenced read-
ing the morning service, and the unhappy man Jr, fined
in the responses wit's a loud voice. At a few minutes
before nine o'clock the &lei iff and his officers arrived,
and the prisoner was immediately led out of the Chapel,
and in the yard ad:pining was pidosted by the execti•
ti •ner ; he th.n we; t bitterly; and when the Sheriff
directed the officers to proceed forviard, he trembled
and became faint. He was supported through the dif-
ferent avenues, and ascended the long staircase, leading
to the roof of the prison, with ;stuttering and trembling
step. The rain descended its torrents at: the wretched
criminal was placed urcer the drop, and the operations
of the exe:utiosser were disposed of With mote
than usual celerity; while this was passing the
ptisoner stood eject and prayed aloud, calling
frequently upon the ALMIGHTY Goo to have mercy
upon him. At seven minutes past nine: the Chaplain
and Mr. Walters retired from the scaffold, and in two
m;nutes more the drop tell, and the unfortunate man,
after a few convulsive struggles, ceased to exist. These
were but few persons present, scarcely 200, and a ge-
neral. feeling of commiseration seat expressed for *the
unhappy•being. He was chesseal in black, and had an
appearance of extreme neatness and gentility.
