An Execution In Canada.

From the Prescott (Carada) Press, Nov. ID.
Thursday, the 18th inst, was In all respects most
fitting day, wherein to enact the closing of John
Simpsons existence. The morning was dark and
lowering. and as it progressed drilling rain, min
gled with sleet began to fall. But, dreary and
pulsive as the morning was, it did not prevent the
advent of large number of men and women from
the country, TO witness the execution of q fellow
creature. Even before day, the rumble of wagons
were heard at intervals, and ere noon had arrived
some two thousand persons had congregated to wit
ness the last act in the drama Of blood for blood.
Boys and girls, women ard men, old and young,
married and SINGLE mothers with their infants, and
fathers with their sons, moved by the morbid Gu
riosity, usual on such occasi ions, came to the
wretched murderer expiate his last offence against
the laws Of God and of his country. During the fore
noon, women did their shopping, men talked and
laughed, drunkards got drunk and staggered through
the streets, while boys, who should have been at
home run to and fro and all appeared to forget the
solemn occasion which had brought them together.
Assuredy there is room for reformation here, and
wide room too.
One o'clock was the hour appointed for the execu-
ton, and, o, the time approached. the bulk Of the
throrg gradually moved to the rear Of the Court
House, where they had full view ofthe gaows erect

Sheriff commanded silence, and the criminal in q
