here. Captain MiLxra states, that the schooner has
sustained some injury, and is supposed to have made

al Admiral Sir Jour; GORE, who succeeds to the corn
805
mand, hoisted his flag on Tuesday, at Chatham, and
,es has taken up his residence at the Crown Inn.
" Much difference of opinion is said to prevail
1 amongst the Americans, as to the policy of the prin-
so ciples adopted in the report which is intended to
11'2 operate as a prohibition of direct intercourse between
1613 the United States and the West India Islands by the
57s medium of British vessels. It is supposed by the
174
123 best informed Merchants, that the projects suggested
5o will convert Great Britain into a depot for the native
us commodities suited for contumption in the West In-
-946 dies, and further, that such a scheme of interdiction
.32
will favour the North American British Colonies to
9 the exclusion of the articles the Republic might con-
veniently and advantageously supply.
69 ExecurtoN.--Friday se'nnight being the day ap-
-49
pointed for the execution of John Little, for sheep-
[43 stealing, at Waltham Holy Cross, Essex, and Wil-
so liars Perring, for various biirglaries at Westham and
91 Wansted, at an early hour an unusual number of per-
'ls sons assembled upon the melancholy occasion ex-
-1329
pecting, no doubt, to witness the execution of Judith
9 Hale, but who, however, with William Brown, had
167 previously received a respite during the pleasure of
139 his Royal highness the PRINCE REGENT. Perring
125
162 was deeply affected at his awful situation. Little, on
491 the contrary, betrayed throughout the greatest indif-
-169 ference, and appeared lost to every feeling of repro-
-624 tance. While the executioner was tying the rope
14
2210 about his neck, he called out to a person among the
259 crowd, whom he knew—" Jew, how are you, my
746 boy, won't you come up and shake hands with me be-
- fore I start 7' The man was actually preparing to
i 2
ascend the ladder, for the purpose of complying n idi
the prisoner's request, but was very prudently stop-
ped by the jailor, who immediately ordered him out
of the yard. Atter shaking hands and kis-iing each
other, the fatal platform gave way, and the unfortu-
nate men were launched into eternity. Little was 37
years of age, and Perring 22.
