Immediately after this, the Sheriff and Under Sheriff moved for.. ward towards the Debtor's door. Leary walked with a firm step, and displayed the same intrepid countenance which he had ex. hibited during his trial. The colour never left his cheek, and the few drops that had started into his eyes soon disappeared. Dettloff, his fellow-sufferer, appeared to be much affected, and deeply im pressed H ith the awfulness of his situation. Leary ascended Aile platform first; and as he stood with one leg lesting on the upper step leading to it, and the other on the drop, Sir John Carr ad dressed him, by saying, " Now, Leary, as you love the country that rave you birth, let me implore of yon to make a full confession of your guilt ; and, by doing so, you will make to it all the atonement in your power, and, as tar as you can, do away the disgrace you have east upon it :" When Colonel (Melly exclaimed, " Do, Leary; your countrymen will bless yon for it."—This address had no more effect than every preceding one. Looking stedtastty at both of these Gentleman, lie said, I have nothing more to add to what I have told you ; I did not commit the murder." He wax then placed under the fatal beam, and became engaged in prayer with the Rev. Mr. Devcreux, the Catholic Priest, who had attended him from the time of his conviction, still preserving the same firm and compined countenance. Denton then followed, and appeared scare , ly able to support him-elf. After a few minutes, Dr. Ford cave tl,e usual signal, by taking out his pot ket-hatalkerelsief, when the platform fell, and the wretched men were consigned to another world. Both of them appeared to suffer a considerable time, par tienlary Leary, around whose neck the noose of the cord had slipped behind the jugular vein. After hanging the usual time, their bodies were cut down, and conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital for dissection.

Saturday, John Denton was tried for the murder of Catherine Den ton, with whom he cohabited in Bow-lane Buildings, Bromley, Middle sea. The deceased having reproached the prisoner for striking hi sister, he took a knife from his breast and stabbed her, which caused 'IN - death a month after. The defence was temporary insanity, from n wound received on board sky. lie was found guilty.—Thos. Moon, a soldier who shot a boy on Finchley Common, was acquitted on the charge of murder (no malice being proved), but found guilty of Man slaughter. Thuraday, the Recorder passed sentence• of Death on the following prisoners :—J. Fellows, .t. St!vector, ii. Levi, H. Abrahams. and J. Meade, fur rhbbing ut: the King's highway ; J. Watson and A.

Oo Monday morning, at an early hour, all the avenues leading to the Old Bailey were crowded with persons flocking to witness this aw rid spectacle. The interest which the case of Leury had excited in the public mind, no doubt, greatly increased the concourse, and by half-past seven every part of the Old Bailey was filled. Mn( h anxiety having been expressed to ascertain whether Leary made any confession previous to the morning of execution, we have endeavoured to collect every particular relative to this ambiguous attair. it appears that the unhappy man maintained his innocence of actually committing the deed until the last, but admlit...l berm;~ au accessary; mot by this ;i•!;"ssission he seemed to satisty his conscience, saying " his 11'!•ii.st had forgiven him, and he trusted GA would also." He positively asser t e d, th a t others we're con cerned in the murder. During Sunday night he was employed in drawing up a declaration, but not being able to accomplish it to his satisfactioo, be had torn it to pieces. He kit a letter directed to Lis %vile in Ireland (the woman who passed as such in London not being so), which was forwarded to her, in which he con tinued to assert his innocence, and denied that his hands were ever imbued its the bland of his countryman. It seems it is too prevalent an opinion among the lower class of Irish, that unless they actually Commit the di ed, they ought not to suffer as necessaries. Nlassday morning the two criminals were brought from the cells. Leary had tasted nothing but bread and water since his sentence; he nevertheless appeared to have a healthy complexion. and walked with a firm pace, frequently looking around him with the utmost composure. About a quarter of an hour before eight o'clock, the unhappy men were conducted into a passage adjoining one of the yards on the erlillinid side of the prison, to have their irons knocked off. During the time that this operatics was iverforming, Colonel O'Kclly, who Lad attended him the day before tbr the purpose of obtaining a cons fession of Isis guilt, now again addressed him, and conjured him, as he was then about to appear before the Almighty, to declare the truth. Lary listened to him with respect, and then exclaimed. I. I declare most solemnly 1 did not commit the murder, though I saw it done." Colonel O'Kelly then produced a paper, drawn up by hilmat", of which the following is a ropy : ••• " I, James Leary, having received the Sacrament, and being gi now on the brig;. of eternity, do hereby most solemnly declare,. 6 ' that, ithhough I was presiint, I commit the murder of e‘ Clifford." ihe Colonel left a blank between the words " I did" and " com mit," to leave them in that state if he aknowledged his guilt, or that be should fill it up with the word nut, with his own hand, e be still persisted in declaring that he was only privy to tue murder, and had 120 t hiu►self perpetrated it. Colonel O'Kelly then said, " Now, Leary, as yon still insist aeon yonr former declaration, with your hand write the word Not " A pencil was then put into his bind, awl the papet was placed by Qr. Ford upon some person% bat, and held before him. Leary attentively read it over, and up;:n the Col.aiel pointing to the bl.loh, and although his hands were tied at the wrists, and his arms pinioned, he wrote in a firm hand the *turd 14 not," and With the ssitne firmness signed bib natne.
