ESCAPE OF A ANIURDERER!-V ADKINS,
who was to have been executed on the
18th January, has escaped from Sarato-
ga Jail. After getting off his irons, on
Thursday, he asked the Keeper, who
brought him his evening meal, to explain
to him passage Of Scripture. The
Keeper took the Bible, read the passage
with which the prisoner seemed much af-
fected. As the Keeper, who was in this
way thrown off his guard, was about to
retire, the prisoner knocked him down
with his chain, jumped upon and stund-
ed him, and then took the keys, locked
in the Keeper, and made his escape.
The Keeper, after lying insensible
nearly three hours, arrested the attention
Of his wife by cries Of murder. She gave
tine alarm, and after further delay, the
door was broken open, when il was dis
covered that the prisoner had escaped
leaving the Keeper badly wounded.
