DUBLIN, March 22. Six of tbe ipurderert of Mr. Harman-have been convi&ed at the assizes of Longford. Saturday Patrick Hart was executed at thefronr of .the New prifou, purfoant to his fentniQC, for High' Treason. Before he left his cell fheriff Starrier proposed the following queltmns to'him, which he answered in the presence of fevcral gentleman, with much calmness : Q Are you guilty of the crime for which you are to"fuffer >A. lam —I was a Defender, and act ed as such. „ Do you know any p'rfon of consequence who is a Defender ? A. No ; I do hot know the principals •, but 1 am acquainted with a great many Defender!, and I wirti 10 God I could bring them to a pioperfenfe of their crime. Q. What was the ohjeft of the Defenders ? A. They*took arms to overthrow the government but 'not to deftrov life or property, the greatest part of what Lawler fworc wa* true, but not all : I never told him that at Finnagan's house : the blunderbuft found in my possession was given to me by one of the persons concerned in the robbery. Who if it AippW* money for the fees »f law yers, and othtr expences attending on the trial of Defenders ? A. I do not know. He was then conduced from the cell. On his way thrnugh'theprjfon, he repeated (in answer to the fheriff) that' the intentidn of the Defenders in taking arms, was so overthrow the government. — When on the fcaffold, " Good pesple (said he, in a loud and diftinft voice) pray for me : I was a De fender, my sentence is just ; I thank the fheriff for his indulgence to me—l forgive my profeeutors, and I hope t-obe forgiven." After hanging twenty minutes the bedy was then taken up and the head fevered from it;' the execu tioner then exhibited it to the view of the surround ing populace, laying aloud, " behold the head t of a traitor." LONDON, April 1. The British Eall India company are railing 3600 m«B for the navy,.at a bounty of 351. per man, U Among the many accounts of gen. ranee the report of his reJignation, the following. [Appears to be the most ably penned chara&ei of him that has been attempted : " If we may trust to the report of this great man, made bjr the English ind Germans, to whom he wasoppofed,he was as exemplary in hit condu<3, as a humane and generous enemy,as he was confum matc in military genius, in gallantry and in fit ill.— : He was the author of a new scheme of tactics, the value of which he demonstrated by success. When called to the command of a multitude of undisci plined boys, he found.no one principle of an army upon which to act, except enthufiaim in the cause in which they were engaged ; he seized upon this great pafiion and made it equal to all the reft ; dif ciplinc, science, maturity, fell before it. With en thusiasm only at his fupipott he attacked the vete ran armies of Germany in raafs, and to the aston ishment of a surrounding world, for thirty thice successive dayt, he brought thw unorganised multi tude to the charge, disciplined them in the midst of actual fire, and moulded them into a tegular armv upon heaps of slain. He exhibited a new science in the history of arms. To be repulsed was not have his squadrons broken not to be put into disorder—and he was the firit general who could so rafiy his men, that though driven back to day, he returned to the field with the fame alacrity to-morrow, and at the incefTant drop pierces the fttme, converted hit fcrist of de feats into the most brilliant conquest. Such was the fpkndnf-opening of hit military chara&er to wards the close of 1793, when he took the command of the motly host of requisition men, to refill the im petuous inroad of general Wurnjfer, who had cut rou rt S h ne * Weifiemburg, aud penetrated almofl to the capital of Alsace. The whole of hit military career f.nce that time has been equal to the promiie of his outset. He recovered all that the treachery of general Damourier had loft, and ac complished even more than his bombast had promis ed, and while he drove the veteran armie* of Eu rope from the plains.of Cambray to the Wefer be tore him, his course of vidtery was (hired by no a of violence—his reports to his country by no vain exultation.
