JoHS wooD.-A man Of the name Of John
Wood, was, on the fifteenth day Of June, pub
lickly hanged, at Pendlcton South Carolina
charged with having murdered his wife. Pre-
which will be found to follow these remarks,
TO his mother. 1t is crcditable to the talents
of the author; and it is TO be lamcnted, that a
| man possessing so fine genius, should have
been to soon cut of, and through his own mad
ness and folly, find an ignominious death by the
Halter.
DEAR MorHER-Amidst the horrors of n
dungeon, in which have fingered out nearly
six months, and in which the laws Of my coun-
try have doomed me to pass the few rcmai ming
days that await me in this world, ! perform
the last melancholy duty Of addressing to you
a letter, which will probably not reach you
until your unhappy son shall have suffered a
death Of infamy and shame upon the galows.
have been arrested, tried, and convicted by
the laws Of my country, Of the murder Of Eliza
beth Wood my wife; my conviction has been
sanctioned by the highest tribunal in our state.
and the awful sentence which the laws Of God
and christian man have annexed TO that crime,
will be executed on my body on Friday next.
The wretchedness of my situation is not lit
tic aggravated by the reflection. that my
daughter Emily, my child of ten years old,
was the witness whose testimony brought up
OH me the awful fate, which am destined so
soon TO realize. OF the means by which she
was brought into Court witness against me,
and Of her testimony, il docs not become
man in my situation 20 speak. Were ] to de-
ny the correctness of her testimony. or To dis
close the causes which made her a witness
against me, il might be attributed TO tho dcs-
rcratc energy Of dying man to escape the
odicm Of guilt and tho Ignominy Of his crime.
Whether am innocent or guilty whether my
life is 10 bo sacrifice or an expiration, are
known 10 him before whom must shortly APP
pear, and at whore august Court I shall not
,rcmble to present the record Of my conviction
and to receive that justice which his impartial
hand administers 60 all creatures. A. this

Iarsr OaAToRs--A very interesting and
intelligent writer, whose productions are pub
lishcd in the Nashville Banner, has, of late,
been atiording the literary and reading commu-
mites, with sketches Of the Irish Bar. A week
or two since, VIC copied his first number on the
subject, and now lay before our readers the
second, which we undertake TO say will be
found unusually interesting. II is sketch OF
the celebrated GRATrAN, a man, who, in his
days Of glory and triumph, was not only the
pride Of the Irish bar, the head Of the party
favourable 10 the best interests Of Ireland, but
lawyer Of distinguished and prc-emincni tai
ents and vast attainments:
"I shall now introduce HrrRY GnArr,S,
though he survived several of tho orators which
succeed him in these papers. As his life is not
generally known, may be excused in glanong
specifically nj IT, His father was Recorder
and Representative of Dublin. Hcnry's career
began al the Bar, but his talents were not of
that order which unfold themselves at once,
and start forth ready armed for battle. He
was therefore unsuccessful when Lord Charlie
mont's influence returned him to Parliament.
There his fame was gradually established, and
advanced progressively till hIs death, In 1888
The nation rewarded his merit with present
