EXECUTION OF MICHAEL BAR- | RET, THE CLERKENWELL CONSPIRATOR,

Shortly afterward he was “jomed in his cell hy the Rev. James Hussen, attached to the Roman Catholic Chapel in Moorfield, who had attended him regularly since his con- viction, and who remained with him to the last. Isis understood that he received the Sacrament one day last week, and again yes- jterday morning. Tuward 8 o'clock the She. riffs paid him @ visit, accompanied by the Governor, and then retired to a part of the prisoa leading to the seaffeld, where the rest ut the authorities and the public represent- atives had already assembled. His face had

respects he was an altered man.

With the first sound of the bells came a great hangry roar from the crowd outside, and a loud continued shout ot “ Hats off,” till the 'whele dense, Lareheaded mass stood white and ' ghastly looking in the morning sun, and the | pressure ou the barriers increased so that the _girls aud women in the frout rauke be to sereain and struggle to get free. Amid seck a scene as this, and before such a dense crowd of white faces, Barvett was executed. His clergyman came first. Barrett mounted the /steps with the most pertect firmness.

His face was as white as marble, but still he bore him- self with firmness, and his demeanor was as far removed from bravado as from fear. We would not dwell on these detail, but from the | siusuiar reception he met as he came out upon (the scaffold. There was a partial burst of | cheers, which was instantly accompanied by | tous hisses, and so it remained fer some | seconds, till, as the last moment ap roached, | the roars dwindled down to a dead silence. To neither cheers nor hisses did the culprit make the slightest recoguition. He seemed only attentive to what the priest was saying to him, and to be eagaged in fervent prayer. The hang-mau instautly put the cap over bis face and the rope roand bis neck. Then Bar- rett, turning, epoke through bis cap and asked for the rope to be altered, which the bany- man did. In another moment Barrett was a dead man. After the bolt was drawn and the drop fell with the loud boom whieh alwa
