ordinary punishment, Of hanging, and he
shall be drawn on a hurdle to the place
OF execution-his property shall be con-

nounced, the prisoner was then placed
in seclusion. On The following day,
(Nov. 6,) at noon, the sentence was car
ried into effect. The Madrid G,zette
saws, the public tina, held his crimes in
such de,estation, has shown, on this &C.
casien, that it can distinguish between
the crime and the criminal; for not the

This election is important in no other
view than Us having he M de The es, {
the sentiments Of the people on tie Con-
veDtion 9 eston. 1t was Al "a yer, late
period when the manpuvr, OF the Slave
party were discovered. Indeed, so sly
were they, that they sent the name otter
candidate to this Office to be announ ed,
and withheld ii from their own paper TO
the number next preceding the electior.
The slave party OF the state have no r. Il.
son to be dissatisfied v lib their tqeo mana
gers in this county, al the result of his
election, on account of a want i eXer,ion
on their part Their scheme was adj
mirabIv well laid, and calculated to err
sure success. a. far as management could
effect that object. NJ. Jones is a. cd
settler; is personally known 10, and
highly estee med by. almost every ci zen
of the county. He has heretofore served
in the legislature, and as county oommis-
sioner, in which stations he gave general
satisfaction. / was, however, known to
but few of the opposers of the inlroduc-
ton Of slavery, that his sentiments were
in favor of convention. He was, there
fore, the person best calculated to sue.
coed, that could have been nominated on
that side. Mr.. Lippincott, in compare
son with Mr.. Jones, is but little personally
known to the body Of the people, while
his sentiments in favor of freedom are as
much subject of no'orie,y as those of
any other man in the county; and we
will venture to say, that, with the excep-
ton of three or four moderate con, ention-
lists in this town, who gave him their
suffrages from motives of friends in, he
received no votes from the opposite party.
