Can't. Beau YVES handsome man. About
five feet nine inches in hight, q strong,
oompactly built form, light beard and
naoustache and yellowish hair, regular fea-
firmness, and a clear, brilliant gray eye
theseIwere the physical characteristics OF
the Rebel SPY. There was also singular
freedom and self possession IN his manner
of movement and address.
Following Marshal Murray to the door
of his cell, he marched between the guards,
who were awaiting him, toward the desig-
gaze of the knots Of loungers who had
gathered TO witness the scene. We forgot
to mention that he was also accompanied
by the Rev. S. .. Weston, Chaplain Of the
Seventh Regiment, National Guard, who
had been his constant companion for seve-
raj hours previous.
THE GALLONS.
The gallOws wGs erected on pleasant lit.
te knoll OF ground, which sloped gently 10
the waters OF 5he bay on the extremity OF
the island, fronting the na-sows. The
structure s.self was simple enough. There
was no drop, but q chair was placed direct
~ under the rope, which ran through an
aperture and along a groove, OF series Of
puilies in the beam above, the other end
falling into rude box, or shanty, where it
had connection With q heavy weight, which
the severing Of e subordinate line would
bring the moose up, with eswifs jerk, to the
top OF the gsl1ows.tree. Up and down, in
the interior of the enclosure, paced the man
whose business it was to cut the short line
at the signal, and by the action Of the fall
ing weight run up the outer cord, with its
dangling burden Of flesh and blood. He
was in fact the hangnan of the occasion. q
deserter long confined on the islard, but
who, we understood, was ex.emp ported in
to an executioner, on the condition that
thereafter his own past sins were to be for
given.
By noon there was large crowd collect
ed around this spot, cycling the structure
with morbid curiosity, and several pla.
toons OF troops were marchingand counter
marching around it, with ful, band play
ing At their head. Nearly all Of the press
were represented, and stood very near the
scaftold, with Major Bumford, the COM
mandant Of the post, and several other Off.
GERS belonging on the island. AS the fatal
hour drew near, the crowds Of spectators
became SO pressing that guard was de-
tailed, which quickly drove them back,
while the troops were formed "A hollow
square around the gallows TO keep ou.sid-
ers at q distance.
