Executions.
00. Friday lw|t, , and Copeland,
negroes, And Cook and Ooppie, white men,
.wore executed at t/haflestown, Va., for
their participation in-the Harper's Ferry
raid. Green and Copeland were hung at
half-past U; o’clock, dp a gallows erected
op the jon which John Brown was ex.
ecuted two Weeks previous. Green’s neck
was brokenlbythe fdil, and he died with
out a struggle. Copeland writhed in vio
lent contortions for several minutes. —
Cook and | Cpppic were executed on the
same; gallows at 1 o’clock, F. M.
On the previous evening a daring at
tempt to escape was made by Cook &nd
Coppie. Ft appears that they had cut
through thieir shackles by means of a bar
low knife and chisscl, this enabling them
to pry them off and put them on at will.
They,thcn| inado■ a bole .in the wall behind
theiribed, [which they, concealed by pla
cing the i bed against it in daylight, or
when Any I one was ip the room. The
bricks taken opt they 1 -hid in the drum of
the stove,land placed (the dirt and plaster
ing between the bedclpathes. At 8 o’clock
on Thursday evening,- they opened the
holo and piade their way .into the jail yard,
where, by - means of the timber used in
putting up thfe gallows for Brown, they
were enabled to reach the top of the wall.
Cook, succeeded in getting to the top of the
wall, When he was challenged by a guard
on t|e pptsidd, apd not answering, the
guard fired at him. Cook ; deter
mined topersist, and was about nuking.

tinel declared his intehtion. of impaling
him on his bayonet; life. Jthfep retreated
into the Jail .yard with Coppie, and both
gave < themselves, up yfithopt farther resis
tance. Cook afterwards remarked that, if
he couhfhaye got over, and throttled the
guard, he would have made his escape.

that the same talent for negotiation and

combination with military skill and re

A Heroins.— Mrs. Mary JL Richardson, of
Hampton, Texas, writes to her, brother, in
Waynesboro, Tennessee,' as follows: —■“ On the
4th of' September last, ' the Indians came in
among ns, and after,doing somo other, mischief
paid ms. a visit. My husband was from home
on business, and I was alone with my five little
children, two miles froth Why other house. I
sent my two oldest (-Mary and John) to drive
up.the cows, and did not suspect that-the In
dians were lurking near. They espied the
children about three ,huudred yards from the
house, and chased them towards ’ home, where
' they fled for protection; and little.was the pro
teo.ion that I, alone, a timid woman, was able
to give, against eight savages, thirsting for
blood and plunder. Mary (the oldest) made
good her retreat; but oh ! imagine my feelings,
when 1 saw them overhaul little John afad begin
to stab him with a lance I was much frighten
ed, and expected nothing hut to be massacred
together with my children. I thought of my
gun at that critical moment I took it down
and fired.and kept firing until assistance came
to my relief. The Indians (as I suppose)
thought therc-wore meh in the house prepared
to receive themi and fled, and left my child
alive , but severely stabbed in the back, through
the arm, iu the right side. He has recov
ered from his wounds,” N
Death From a Pistol Shot. —Aa accident
occurred in Bratton tp., Mfflin Co., on the 2d
inst, from carelessness in handling firearms,
which resulted, in , ;the.death pfa young man
named Jesse'Weaver. The following particulars
pf the affafr wore communicated to' the Gazelle.
At a shooting match oh the farm of John
Moist, in that township, on Friday afternoon,
a young than named Jesse -Weaver . whs pre
sent with > rpyplyer. 4 rabbit came by and
- Weaver and several others commenced shooting
at and chasing it, after which they returned to
the company, when Joseph Kauffman reached for
the pistol to look at it aWeaver said,there.was •.
no load in, as he had shpt them all oat at the
rabbit, butitihile showing Kauffman the merits
of the weapon, one barrel discharged its con
tents into ,the breast' of Weaver a Utile above
the right nipple, causing instant death, the ball
penetrating through and lodging against the
skin bn the back.
Conjugal Awectios. —An incident came to
our knowledge the other day which, speaks
strongly in favor of the depth and undying
character,of conjugal, affection. A married
woman in cur city hod the* misfortune to lose
her husband a few days sinqc, and while think
ing over-her desolute condition, and the pros
pects of,a dreary, lonely winter, and estimating
how much of her funds would be absorbed in
the funeral expenses of the dear deceased, she
was interrupted by the call of a young sou of
iEsculapius, who, after some little chaffering,
proposed to give the lady a good round sum for
the useless body of the dead husband. The
widow thought npqn the proposal, and finally
accepted the offer. A day or two afterward,
being waited upon by some of her friends who
tn sympathize with her in her affliction,
the widow said it'was not as bad as it might
have been, as she had sold her husband’s body,
and filled her cellar with wood and cool bought’
with the proceeds.— Balt. Repub.
Kyra a ordinary Case.— Sometime in Febijary,
1854, Pr. S.' M. King was called upon to per
form an operation on the person of Mrs. Adams,
residing a few miles from Monongaiiela city .
'She. was afflicted with dropsy, or as medical
men tom it, asrftts, and the doctor drew from
her fourteen gallons-'of'water.'’ From that time
to January, 1856, he T drew from her orte handed
and fourteen and a half gallons, and up to the
18th of October last, hud- taken six hundred and
ticenlg’eight gallons and two quarts, or nearly
twenty barrels. Mrs. Adams is about forty : five
years old; is id the enjoyment of good health,
arid should nothing unnsual occur, bids fair to
live for several yoars yet. Her health is much
better now than When .the first operation was
performed. This is a most unusual case, and
its like has rarely if everTioen witnessed by the
profession. The Doctor publishes a profession
al account of the case in the last number of the
Sltdical Journal.
Fbbsch Invasion or Ibelaj^d. —Some of tho
Irish journals are disciissinff tho probability of
a Freheh invasion of Ireland. They think that
in the event of Lome Napoleon declaring, par
against England, one of .his first steps will be to
land a powerfui force in Ireland, attd take pos
session of the principal ports of tho'itlana.—
Thera are few places in Ireland jfit to resist a
'strong invading force, and a French expedition
would find many sympathisers-there. Even the
’English -joarnsls, in speculating upon prapture
•yith France, express' apprehensions that the
’French Nmperor'woiild, simultaneously with an
attack upon England* make a diversion upon
Ireland, and himeelf of the suppbnof the
disaffected portion .of the population. T;la Tiew
of this danger, the British’government nas di
rected its attention to the fortification of the
Irish coast, and orderaihavo been jss&ed for the
construction of ,batteries (ft the points most like- :

Langster stealthily approached the bouse, and
asked for admission. The' boy asked who was
there, bat received no answer. Repeating the
question and receiving no answer, he procured
a double-barrelled shot-gun, and stepping out
side of the house fired. The gnu was loaded
with buckshot, most of which took effect in Mr.
