 TEN EYCK The gallows on which John Ten Eyck will pay the penalty of the hru- tai murder he committed iu Sheffield last November, has arrived in Pittsfield, Sheriff Root having borrowed it from Springfield, where it has been used once before. It will be set up in few days, as soon as the rope, which has been made expressly for the purpose, arrives, and to guard against possibility of accident or mishap the rope will be tested with a sand bag three times the weight of the criminal. Ten Eyck is confident now that his days are rapidly nearing a close, and yet in the face ot al this he will assert his innocence with all the coolness which characterized him before the trial, and it is the general opinion that he will march to the scaffo.d with the same spirit. When death really stnres him in the face he may weaken but as yet he doesn't give any evidence of it.. But few visitors are allowed to see him, not that he doesn't want to have them call, but that the sheriff feels that it is not best. Rev. MT. Harrison, the colored clergyman, is bis spiritual adviser and visits him quite often, but has not been able to obtain any coufes- sion or retrac,ion of his plea of innocence from him as yet.
