PEORIA, ILL.,. Dec. 10.
Our city was again thrown into
much excitement to-day. The exc
cution Of Brown and Williams, for the
murder OF Mr., Hewctt, was to have
taken place yesterday, but by an or.
der from the governor. received on
Wednesday, it was extended to the
18th of January next. This not
being generally known or credited,
large masses of people of this and
adjoining counties assembled to wit.
ness the execution; and being disap.
pointed in their expectations. a portion
of them resolved that the persons
should be executed forthwIth; and,
urged on by exciting speeches, they
got possession of the scaiin!d from the
jliI-yHrd, and erected it in the street
in front OF the Jail.
They then effected an entrance by
Jerking the doors aud locks, and pro.
cccdcd with crow bars. scantIing. and
other implements, to the cells, where
they met with resistance from Brown.
who, although shackIcd, as soon as
the cells were opened, steppe! into
the hall, disarmed Il few OF the mob
bers by taking from them the crow.
bars and scantIng, barred his cell on
the inside, and deiici them. He broke
the scanlling over the mobbcrs, and
gave them other striking illustrations
of his entire disapprovaI Of such un-
lawful proceedings. The prisoners
were again secured in the cells, and
before dark the crowd disappeared.
Thus resulted what at first all sup.
posed would be a most tragical and
disgracciul affair. The mob fell back,
and Il few OF our citizens dropping in
at this conjucture prevented further
violence.
