WHOLE FAMILY EXECUTED IN IRELAND. —Last Friday the extreme penalty of the law was carried into effect at Ennis, against the three Stackpoles, Richard, Honiara, and Bridget, convicted at the last Clare assizes, of the murder of their nephew, under the most atrocious and cold-blooded circumstances, for the sake of a small reversionary property to whichhe was entitled. Under the appearance of hospitality and kindness, they invited him to sleep in their house on Saturday night, that he might prepare himself for divine service the following morning. - Scarcely had the poor fellow gone to Sleep, when he was awoke by a blow on his head from the male prisoner, whom he saw standing over his bed, and who told him it was useless to resist. The three convicts, assisted by another uncle of deceased, named Stackpole, who is dying in jail, and a farm servant who turned approver, but who had very little share in the crime, dragged him out of bed, dashed him down stairs,col battened his brains out with every wealeototdhylo someul put their hands on.
