the language of the World on those two

Execution OF NsuRGENrs AT MADRID.
A Madrid letter IN the Paris Temps describ
ses the scene at the execution Of the irsu--
gents in that city who were involved in the
last revolt. AT noon, he says, twenty -one
young fellowssof the army engaged in the
late insurrection, almost all of handsome APP
pearance, were taken out of the prisons, and,
after being tied together two by two, were
placed in carriges with the windows wide
open, and escorted by IA numerous body of
troops to the place ofexecution, "a spot select
ed on the vacant ground between the Sala-
manca Palace and the Champs Elysees One
of my friends is having five houses built not
a hundred PAGES from the spot the mason
ry and scaffolding are in the course of erect
ion, and afforded an excellent position for
viewing the scene. There was a preliminary
ceremony, or military degradation pro-
menade under the flag then a discourse,
which could not hear, but which lasted
two hours, during which time these unfortu-
nate men must have already suffered thou
sand deaths. All enormous crowd which
had followed the procession was kept at
distance by the troops At last the 81 vic
tins were ranged in file at about yards
distance from the low clay wall, with their
backs to the soldiers, and then the discharge
took place. Nearly all of them fell. At
that moment the Hermanos Gle la Caridad.or
Brothers of Charity, rushed forward to save
at least few, but were repulsed by the
troops, and the firing recommended and con-
tinued. The firing went ON, and more than
two hundred shots were fred. What sight
saw one man raising himself three times,
and fall on his knees with his arms extended
in direction from which piercing voice
was heard to shrek in the midst of the mas
sacre, "Frederico FREDERICK % The SOL
diers then approached the corpses, turned
some of them over with their feet, and, still
perceiving some signs of life here and there,
discharged Il last shot point blank. All was
then over. The bodies were thrown upon
tumbrils. and the regiments filed off some to
an air of the" Norma" some to one of the
s. Semiramidc." Thirty more are to be shot
in day or two-soldiers also the rest will
come after.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN BURKE CoUN-
Ty-We have been informed by gentle
man from Morganton, that Mr.. Robert Tate,
a most estimable young gentleman was
brutality murdered in cold blood by James
McKesson, last Tuesday. McKessozs was
the husband of Mr. Tate's sister. and in a.
drunken tit last week, shot at his VITA three
times. which caused her to leave hohae and
go to her fathers for protection. A few
days afterwards, McKesson went and per-
suaded his wife, upon fair promises af re-
pentance, to return with him to their home.
In passing a neighbours house on the road,
he told his wife to proceed on, that he was
thirsty and would call and get drink of
water-Here he met Mr.. Tate, who in - mild
manner demonstrated with him for the bru-
tai treatment of his sister. McKessonS wife.
McKcsson asked him if he took It up. -
Tate replied no" but he wished him to
act better in future. Mckesson then told
him to come out and he would shoot him.
Tate not supposing that he would put his
threat into execution, perhaps, stepped out
at the door, and was shot down, and died
in about ten minutes afterwards. Mr. Tate
was unarmed, a single man, most werthy
gentleman. McKesson made his escape and
had not been unprecedented at the last &C
counts. The gun that was used was charged
with wood screws, several of which were ex-
tracted from the body of the deceased.
