EXECUTION.


On Tuesday last, John Moore, one Of the
murderers of Sylvester Combs, was execu-
ted in the vicinity of Mount Sterling. Ear
ly in the day the citizens Of Montgomery
and the adjoining counties began to assem-
bic at the Jail and about l O'Clock the
prisoner was removed, under strong
guard, TO the place Of execution, attended
by the Rev. Messrs. Ray and Smith. When
arrived at the fatal spot, (about two miles
from town, and at the place where the muir
der is supposed to have been commltted,)
the Rev. Mir. Ray delivered short, but
very appropriate exhortation; he was sue
ceeded by the unfortunate Moore, in
speech of about an hours length, in which
he neither directly acknowledged his guilt
nor ayowed his innocence Of the crime Tor
which he was about to suffer. He seemed
TO be perfectly resigned 10 his fate, and re-
gardless of death and declared Ito use his
own words) that it was better TO be hung
anu W w tiidu W oie a
and be damned" He evinced no symp-
tom of fear, but with indescribable forti-
tude, he was, between one and two o'clock,
launched into the world whence no ira

I'VE are gratifed in having it in our
power to publish corrected copy OF the
speech Of the hon. Mr., MERCER, OF Va. de-
liyered in the House Of Representatives OF
the United States, on the 18th OF March
last. The subject is peculiarly important,
as il comprises great constitutional ques-
ton, on which the President and the Con-
gress have differed. 1t is also particularly
important to the district OF Columbia, as ii
involves, in the opinion oil many, the pre-
servation OF our union. Ed. Gazette.

PAPER MONEY.

bank bills are quoted at II, 60, 25, so and
60 per cent, dis! Boston Centinet.
We are not little surprised that the in
telligent editor of the Boston Centinel
should give currency to the unfair repre-
sensations OF Baltimore brokers on the va
lue of our paper money. Perhaps he will
be willing TO correct the mistake he has
fallen into, when we assure him that there
is no sach institution as the Merchants
Bank, il having ceased its operations three
years since-that none of its notes are Of
fered for sale at any price, there being none
in circula,ion-and that every one OF our
banks pay specie for their bills whenever
presented, with promptness equal to those
of Baltimore or Boston.
