HOrr:hle Scene.

Stevens, executed in New York, the
other day for the murder Of his wife,
was literally butchered. The account
says:
Having reached the gallows, Stephens
was addressed by the Sheriff as fol-
lows:
stephens, it has become my duty to
execute the sentence of the law upon
you. Have you anything to say before
the performance of this duty
Stephens answered in tone of voice
only audible to some three or four who
stood beside him, but without faltering
in his calm dcmeanor:
Il stand here as sinner, but tn rough
the blood Of Christ am saved. l don,
stand upon any merit of my own. but
in the spirit Of the Redeemer, who died
for me. Ny kind spiritual advisers
there (inclining towards Messrs. Knapp
Camp and Sklnner) will tell you ali
have to say. They know the truth, and
it's needless for me, dying man, tt
speak aught but that. have strong
and abiding faith in the Lord Jesu,
Christ, who died for us all, and hop,
to be saved by the blood he shed for u
poor sinners. l feel prepared to die"
| Shcritf-'lIave You no more to saw (!
Stephens-'No, no; nothing more.
Mr.. Knapp then advanced, and in an
ag.tated tone said, in accordance with
Stephens request
James, for Gods sake, if you have
one word to say, say it no. Ii you are
guilty, confess it; your salvation de-
ponds upon it,
Stephens replied, Il AN INNOCENT
Kedcemer save me- Then turning to
the Sheriff, he exclaimed, BE qaick, lie
quick"
The Sheriff, assisted by Mr.. George
". lsaacs, then adjusted the moose
abont the neck Of the condemned man
and drew the cap down over his face.
lie was then Invested Of his cloak. and
stood dressed IN suit Of heavy brown
stuff, much worn, with his coat huttonod
to his chin. AS these final prcparat;ons
were beng made, Stephens constantly
calculated, Lord, have mercy on me-
At 9:35 o'clock the Sheriff waved hi.
handkerchief % signal for tho rope to
be cut. Through either ignorance OF
design, however, on the part of the man
to whom this duty had been assigned
the rope was not severed IN the usus
way with the Ratchet, but was SLOWLY
run off from the elect which held it, and
the poor culprit was raised gradually
until lis body was elevated about foul
feet from the ground. As a consequence,
his neck was not dislocatcd, and death
was produced by sutfoca,ion. For abou,
three minutes after his suspension, his
struggles and contortions were fearful.
They we're accompanied by gurgling
IN the throat, and his sufferings must
have been dreadful. From this point the
convulsivs throes gradually became
weaker, and at the expiration Of the
eighth minute they had entirely ceased.

Instructions to Delegates.

The Iowa State Reporter, which by
the way is a journal Of Douglas pro.
clivi!ies, takes the following very .cnsible
view Of the matter Of instruc,iny dele.
gates at township, county and state con.
vcntions:
We don't believe in instructing Delegates TO
Charleston 10 vote for Stephen A. Douglas or
any other man. Instructions SAVIOR Of partixan-
chip and packed conventions, and s'.ould not
be urged. especially At . crisis like the pres
ent when it matters but little tho is the Ma.
tional choice, provided he represents tho undi.
vided Union comprsh ends its whole interests.
and can grasp the helm Of state with q bold
Jacksonian hand.
1t is very probable that the Iowa Convsn-
ton will instruct for Douglas. But however
it may be Theoretically, the instruction comes
not from the people. but from the politicians,
who nay, AID may not represent the popular
will, but who. as they come from an untram-
melled constituency. should not trammel
Others.
They should speak the voice OF the fifty.
three thousand Democrats Of Iowa, who only
ask that representative Of National Demo
cratic conservatism be put in nomination, to
secure for him the electoral vote of . redeeme ed
state.
The people say-instruct.-but not for one
man or another. Instruct for him whom, IN.
delegates Of the United Sovereigntiss NAV can.
elude it best to present to the country. Irstrnct
for him no will lay his hand upon the MAD
sectionalism of the day-whoee solid patriot
ism will rally the largest Union vote-vhose
moral weight and proven statesmanship will
iuspire the masses with confdence-vbose
known fealty to the Constitution will gather to
his standard that reserved strength which has
hitherto been equardered or stood wavering in
the contest.
We recommend the above to the care
fal, candid perussl and investigation Of
every sound hearted Democrat. 1t con-
taius words Of ''truth and soberuess"
which portion Of our readers would
do we'll to adopt, and sentiments which
III should strive to emulate.

believed was right. Let the Courts pass
