Lord Renfrew—How to Trent Him,
The reports in the London Times, "from
our own Correspondent," of the Royal visit to
Canada, have the disadvantage of coming
back in an unavoidably tardy manner. They,
are very differthat, in most respects, from the
reports which Jenkins and his imitators haie
supplied . to the New York Heneld and other
, c sensation" journals, to whom exaggeration
is as the very breath of life. They fairly
place before the great mass,of English readers
a clear narrative of the leading incidents of
the Prince's tour, and leave to Jenkins and his
crow the congenial task of recording when,
where, and how his Royal Highness blew his
nose, in what manner ho glanced at his 'part
ner, whether he wore a blue or a black neck,
tie, and se on, through all the pettinessos which
constitute the chronicles of Jenkinism. We
do not oven know the name of 'the Ti . ntes'
correspondent, (sent over specially from the
office in London,) but it is evident, from the
letter and spirit of his writing, that he is a
gentleman.
This Correspondent has introduced, into
one of his letters, n notice of Jenkins & Com
pany, which is more true than flattering. Ho
says:
" If I paid the least, attention to popular rumor,
or believed in the often offent.e and always ri
diculous canards, every whore afloat, about hie
Royal Highness, I could coolly fill . up myletters
with such thrilling adventures by flood and field,
of daring feats attempted, mingled 'with absurd
impertinences and gaucheries, committed here and
there, as would, no doubt, impart a most To:miller
Interest to my narrative. But, alas, in this mat
ter I find myself every where fettered by the un
fortunate necessity of adhering only to what is
true, and rejecting at once the half-romantic, half
seandelous garbage, with whiob, in the way of
private anecdotes of the Prime, some of the Ameri
can journals are jest now entertaining their
readers. As a matter of course their fancy sketches
differ considerably in their outlines, and not less
so in the deductions as to character drawn there
from, if all of which are to be believed his
Royal Highness must be one of the most ex
traordinary compounds of chivalry, impudence,
dignity, and buffoonery that ever landed in
America. ,Acoording to ono he is represented
as eystematioally insulting his partners in the
dense by refuting to give them his right hand.
Another. portrays. him as amusing himeolf by
shooting soda-water corks at the head of the Duke
of Newcastle during laugh. One of the illuetratod
papers Will shortly have a thrilling wood-cut of
his Royal Highneee ice ho appeared when rescued
from the deep and dangerous waters of the Se.-
Veneer, by a gentleman named Price. Already
there is a rumor of his horee having run away
with him when on his. way to Montmorenoi, end of
the infuriated animal having jumped clean across
the Falls,'or something equally monntrotte and
itaprobable,J_l,u account ct this will doubtless
appear in time, written with all the wealth of
adjeotivea peculiar to that' style of composition
known among Americans an For all
those lively but frivolous anecdotes there is not a
particle of foundation. They all have their origin
in a morbid appetite for sensation writing,' which
is just now en unusually strong that these rank
morsels are swallowed with an avidity that must,
In the end, eeverely tax the imaginations of the
reporters if the diet is to be continued. Some of the
higher New York journals are honorable exceptions
to this, but they are exception, and, lem sorry
to say, taro nee, file Royal Highness must, in
"deed, be (muttons bow ho slips bore, either literally
or metaphorically. At the bt.ll on Tuesday night
his Royal Highness, in waltzing, caught hie elms in
a lady's dross, lost his balance and fell slightly,
releasing hie partner before he did so. In ten
minutes afterwards, I am told, it was telegraphed
to the New York press that 'his Royal Highness
had a heavy fall while dancing in the fifth set.'
how this little mishap was detailed in various nar
ratives, each more coarse and vulgar, if possible,
than that which preceded it, I need not say.
One puts it on record that he always weers very
11 .fitting dirty, white gloves; another that 'lna
hair la Deft, with e strong tandem to grow down
on ,is forehead, while his head in well shaped, anti
would indicate mildness, firmness, benevolence,
quiekness of perception, a love of music,' and a
trifling knowledge of the trombone it should have
added to make the picture quite Complete. There
is literally no end to the absurdities written about
him here, some arising from igtfOrartee,
their 4.bout his left band—from Meat ill nature and
love of gnarling. 'Whatever iveradted to complete
me vti- — 4 . - "s l lsrtvote life is imagined and ti
rather entragry
Some more startling revelation supersedes it. /t
England, the journalist that intruded upon private
life, and, above all, the private life of royalty,
would not be a journalist long."
As usual, the Now York Herald, which
prides itself upon being a , c sensation "paper,
—that is, of making the most of every incident,
and inventing what it cannot Lind, rather than
not relate startling particulars—of course, this
Ishruttelite of the New York press was the
first to avail itself of the services of Jenkins.
With an impudence almost without prece
dent, even in the Herald, it abused Jenkins
in loading articles, while freely availing
itself of his eaves-dropping and falsehood
making labors, putting striking heads to his
letters to attract attention.
The Canadian tour of the Prince of. Wales
having ended, exit Royalty. The Prince re
tires and re-appears, as Baron Rcurntw, the
very lowest of the five degrees of British nobi
lity. his purpose is to visit this Republican
country, once the heritage of his family, with
as little pomp and display as possible. Alas,
Jenkins will not allowlaim to be a private gen
tleman, and others, who should know better,
will not forget that he is a Prince. Hence, in
certain cities westward, this young gentleman
has been afflicted with municipal and other
Addresses, if not as conventionally" loyal"
as those with which ho was petted by the Ca
nadians, not a whit lees fulsome in praise of
himself, his mother, and his position. More
over, Jenkins' free pen can be traced in some
of the Western journals. The familiarity with
which the figure, features, speech, accent, ac
tion, and even the looks of this youthful Lord
RENFREW are commented upon, exhibit the
trno sprit of Jenkins, and ; WO regret to say,
aro not exactly creditable to the American
press,
Lord REnraaw should be let alone. He
desires to be treated as a private gentleman,
and wants no more. Accustomed, as be has
been from infancy, to be lionized and made
much of, by way of variety he desires to travel
in the United States as a nobody, but curious
people will not allow him this liberty, which
every other gentleman would bo permitted to
exercise. This is bard.
Considering that Lord Rvarevw is not yet
nineteen years old, it must be admitted that
he has conducted himsolf, by all accounts,
with the most marked propriety over sinco he
landed on this Western Continent. Even
Jenkins—Argus-eyed Jenkins—has not been
able to discover a screw loose in his morals or
hiamanners. The young gentleman has con
ciliated regard and respect throughout the
whole of his visit. Let him not return home
with just cause for complaint against his
American friends. If they will allow him the
quiet and privacy which he desires, they will
amply gratify him. As for Jenkins, we sug
gest that, if caught, be be enclosed in an iron
cage, like that in which Loris the Eleventh,
of France, imprisoned Cardinal BALVE for
several years, and hung up, in torrorem, an
awful example to future Joni nOists.

Pennsyliarda State Agricultural Fair.
SECOND DAY
[Correnondenoe of The Pram]
Vi r l3l' PITTSTON, Wyoming, Sept. 27.
This has been a gala day for Luzerno,county.
The spacious grounds appropriated to its annual
fair never knew more animated scenes than ha;re
transpired today.' The bustle and the display are
now over, I write In this crowded hotel ; over
either shoulder peer curious but indelicate visi
tors, ,and the atmosphere of cigar smoke is very
soothing to rue.
, Lot us remember the occurrences of the day. At
'nine o'clock the marshahremd judges assembled at
the president's' tent to, dispose themselves for the
;labors of . the t exhibition. They were mounted
upon doe animals and cadre badgeS of blue, and
wake ribbon:" At the head of 'the line rode the
toll form of Governor , Genry. :Behind him came
Col. Charlea,,Dorrenee and Generals Sturdovant
rind Dana, Slidge ;Imo and Colonels Paxon and.
Knox, with'ether marshals and assistants.' This
fine corps of gentlemen, eminent in; other than
agricultural pursuits, took the lead of a grand ca
valcade, comprising more than three hundred
horses of the'finost character: SplendhP Morgans
and Blardr•llawits went by, to saddle and to har
ness. ,They broke oacasionally into trot and
eurrod their 'beautiful mantis under curb,
dashing forward withinettle in every movement
and. vigor in every step. We looked upon this dis
play as ono of the finest testimonials to 'American
breeders which hoe yet been . given in this State. The
flue of beauty' and the poetry of motion could be
deciphered by the most practical eye, and few vo
itcptuaries looked upon the throng of steeds with
out feelings of pride for the trained Creatures of
Pennsylvania.
The caseload° Went by in the following order
'Mullions led by ther grooms; 2, geldings; 3, brood
mares ;4, horses to solkeys; 5, single &mos to
four-wheeled °amines ; , 6,,-matched carriage
horses in harness; 7, draught and farm pairs; 8,
Jacks, mules and jennies; 9, Saddle horses,
The con - mitten upon "jacks" underwent a groat
poking of fun during the day, as admirably com
petent to decide upon superior jacks ; they retort•
ed. by awarding premiums. to their asinine tor
mentors.
At half past eleven e'olooklrall the trotting
horses competed to saddle. 'The entry fee' was
$lO, and the premiums for trotters, Anglo, or
matched, were $2O for first best and 410 for se
cond best. A very close contest was witnessed be
tween a oorrel and a gray animal. They trotted
the half miles neck and neck, but on the third
quarter and homestretch the gray broke up and
the oerrel dashed ahead. This contest was hailed
with great Cheers and a waving of handkorohiefs.
An enterprising individual sold .out pluses on a
stand at a dime per seat. His speculation proved
to bo very successful, for the stand presented a
dense moos of people.
Themocing and racking horses then struggled
for premiums of the same value, and afterward the
'trotting nags to harness. '
At two o'clock the Decatur steam engine, of Phi
ladelphia, was brought upon the ground, and her
firemen at once snrroanded by the whole mass of
visitors: The hose woe attached to tha water-pipe,
and attempts made to test the capacity of the ma
chine. The supply of. water, however proved
inadequate to keep the steamer employed.'
' During •the rest of the day the strangers found
employment in visiting every section of :the
grounds. At all quarters were clustered imple
ments and Product: of agricultural labor, and as
.the various committees made examinational of
stock, produce, and apparatus, curious crowds sur
rounded them, to admire the handicrafts of nature
and of art. 'The total premiums amount to $B.OOO.
We have understood that the premium of $5O, for
the best display of cattle owned and held as farm
otook, by other than a dairyman, combining the
best properties' in regard .to profitable breeding,
.feeding, and milking, not less than fifteen head,
was awarded to Jacob Haldeman, of Nork
county, and the pieminm for second best toi,Toe
Tripp, of Scranton. The entire steep of Col Hal
deman is of a very superior character. Thei re
maining stook consists of perfect specimens of Dux ,
.bant, Devon, -Alderney, and Hereford , cattle, 'and
Merino, Southdown anti Coteoweld sheep: These
are ohletly from Sesquehanne, Bradford, and Du
nne counties, and from Vermont and New Jersey.
Tho tent appropriated to domestic manufeettires
and the fine arts contains some objects of interest.
Stenberi Jenkins, of Wyoming, has deposited
two 0114C3 of Indian relief) gathered in the valley.
They consist of Mono implements, weapons, ,to ,
arrowhead's and tomahawks, pipes and arrows.
There arc also 'fine oil paintings, twenty or More
in number,. .representing Pennsylvania scenes.
The finest cattle views are from the pencil of Harry
Davis, of Harrisburg. There are:eight patents of
sewing maohines, numbers of kerosene oil lamps,
pianos, hardware, silverware, domestic goods,
needle works, etc.
We find the following towns and counties repre
oented in the display of carriages: Wilkenbirre,
Saainehanna, Springville, Montrose. Bradford,
Bonen, Wyoming, Scranton, Berwick, Providenoe,
and Pittston.
... . . .
Among the Agricultural implements we have
contributions from Now York, Pittsburg, Phila
delphia, Harrisburg, and Lancaster. The .best
ploughs are from Soranton. There ore six pa'Ants

there is no end. An ingeniens eanacrusher', and'
evaporator lies idle. No sugar cane can be found
in the whole valley.
The Floral Hall, whither the ladies primarily
resort, Is superintended by Wm. Southwood, of
Philadelphia, and Colonel hmely, of Wilkesbarro.
The trait is from Wyoming and amateur fruit
growers, with the exception of five hundred samples
of apples and pears from P,llwhanger & Barry.
The latter firm la indignant at the remarks of
one Of your correspondents, who states the; the
Rochester fruit 10 of mere hot-honso growth, and
the Rochester trees unfruitful. They cite gentle.
men in the neighborhood of Philadelpnia, ebgni
zant of the character of their nursery, and . point
to hundreds of Pennsylvania orchards. It is sin
gular that such luscious fruit amid bo the product
of barren trees.
I find in this exhibition every Eastern State repro
fronted, New York largely. Ono firm of her inte
rior country " toamed'!ploughs one hundred miles
in order to got them to Wyoming and several West
ern States. Now Jersey has a copious collection
Pennsylvania is reprerented in every seclion—
three•fourths of the whole number of counties
having articles on exhibition.
This fair has been an experiment, and thus far a
moot promioing one. The tun previous exhibitions
have boon held adjacent to elites. This alone has
been sought by the masses rather than seeking
them. The first exhibition was held at Harris
burg in 1850, the second at Philadelphia iu 1851
Of the subsequent exhibitions, one has been held
at Harrisburg, ono at Lancaster, three at Pitts
burg, and two at Philadelphia. To the oneigy of
President Haldeman and his assistants, and the
citizens of Lucerne, the EUOOOO3 cif the Wyoming
fair is due. To-day it is computed fifteen thou
sand people wore upon the grounds, three thousand
of whom were fed by the eosioty.
To interest this dense mass there aro other than
legitimate attractions within the Wyoming
grounds. The original "cheap John "—nbiqUitous
man !—was observed yesterday afternoon in a suit
of blue and bunts, disposing of a small hardware
shop for twenty-five tents. The paste jewelry sold
at advanced prices—four gold breastpins, a dozen
pairs of earnings, and a massive fob•ohatn for eighty
canto. The same trash ran be bought for eight
cents a pound at any brassmongera. The "Lice
Elk "is also a frequenter of these parts. Ile holds
out next door to the educated Australian zebra,
and looks across the way at the picture of a fere
alone sea-borer, under the immediate eye of a
savage Esquimanx. A large tree grows tut of the
ice to protect the Esquimanx from the intense
Arotio heat.
The crowded trains and jammed hotels to which
I alluded yesterday aro worse than over to-day.
The trains pass by three hours behind time and
the last dining table adjourns lire minutes prior to
the supper hour. God help the cooks. I found;
however, just as I left the ground to-day, that a
few " moral young men" could be accommodated
"with a respectable family, a fow doors from the
Presbyterian Chnroh." 'We knew our utter inca
pacity to correspond to such summoning, and fled
to the West Pittuton Bones. We have had the ea
tisfsetion to-night of looking out at Campbell's
ridge, towering to the stars, and have smoked a
cigar under the shadow of the massacre ,moalt
ment. Claiming for these morales a rooord upon
posterity, we think of the times that leer-'in this
valley of Wyoming, of the iniquitous andegone
rate age in which we live, and sign ourselves
CAIN 80111 ME.
BLONDIN AT JONES' WOOD, Naw
The Times, of Saturday, sari : "This intrepid
rope-walker appeared for the third time, and, we
understand, the last but ono of the present aotoon,
at Jones' Wood. Considering the disadvantages of
wind and temperature of the air, which was quite
0001, oven for September, the accomplishment of
his wheelbarrow porformaneo and other tohlove•
menus were attended with laudable success. No
new feature by which to astonish the aseemblago,
which numbered something above a thousand per
sons, was introduced. He appeared at the ap
pointed time in tights, ascended the ladder-pole—
irons which the rope is suspended—with the dem.
tority of a cat. With but little delay, after sc
ouring an exact equilibrium by limns of his
balanee•polo, he started in quick step to the music
of the band, running rather than walking to about
the middle of the rope where ho proceeded to
I manreuvro in his peouliarly adventurous stay by
lying down, turning somersaults, both forward
and backward, never for a moment exhibiting the
slightest error of movement which might give lire
to fear upon the part of his audioneo, After the
performance of the wheel-barrow, which was
trundiod twice norms the entire length of the rope,
Mona. Blondin was escorted by a demo crowd to
the hotel on the grounds."

In-
OEFINITELY.--In The Free., of Saturday morning
a brief announcement was made that the Inflation
of Professor Lowe's mammoth balloon had ,been
commenced the evening previous, and that the
voyagers Wealtkprobably start for'Europe °often
Saturday morning: Boforemany of: our readers
had read the article, however, an accident occurred
to the balloon, which effectually prevented the
araMnsio - a being made with the present tdr•ship,
the accident demo/Orating tho fact that the ma
terial of which-it was constructed has rapidly de
preciated, and. that it was
_perfectly worthless for
the purpose—intended. The inflation was corn
tuenorlon Friday evening, at the city gas woks
at Point Breeze, and by 5 o'clock on - Saturday
morning it was considered complete. Tho basket
and boat worn attached, everything peaked,
and • the passengers in their places. As the
balloon was being let up from the ground :by
long cables, whiah wore just about being
Out loose, of lost buoyancy and allowed 'the
boat to descend until ittotiohed the ground. Eal
last was then thrown out until the balloon rose to
the length of the repos, when the something again
occurred ; it Wes now evident that it was rapidly
losing gas, and an examination showed several
large slits near the crown, through which the gas
was escaping. In a tomato or two the whole crown
burst oat of the balloon, many disconnected pieces
going through the netting, and the whole machine
settled with a crash to the ground , this was at 6f
o'clock. Careful examination of the material of
the upper portion of the balloon showed it to be
much deteriorated in texture since the first trial, a
partial rotting, of the fibre caroled by exposure to
the westher and much handling.
The proposed experimental trip aoress the At
lantic meat now be considered as postponed until
funds can ho raised to purchase the material for
another balloon. The aeronaut and his friendeare
still sanguine that the voyage can be successfully
acoomplished, and are no ways daunted by these
repeated mishaps, hoping for " bettor luck nest
time."
ItBMOVAL OP A POLITICAL FLAG.--'Oll
Friday evening last, a flag, bearing the names of
Bell and Everett, the national candidates of the
Constitutional Union party, Was taken down from
the front of Miter Hall in South street, above Fif
teenth, under the direction of the proprietor of
that building. The 'flag was placed In a juridic
house on the. opposite side of the atreet fbr 'Oafs
keeping. At a late hour tho same night, a gale. of
rowdies entered the house, took the flag away, *nd,
it is said, destroyed. it. A report was ottanied
on Sa tertian to the tact that it was an American
flag, and that it bad been violently cut down from
the hell, and destroyed by a mob. This was traior-
Teat, the - facts being as given above. The 431111,39
of the flog being taken down by the proprietor of
the house, Was, as ho alleges, in consequenee of
the Constitutional Union Club of the First ward
being in arrears far the rent of the meeting teem,
which they occupied ono evening in the week.
The proprietor notes that he gave notice to the
portico engaging the room that, unless the rent
lour
fixed, he would remove tho flag from his prom sea.
The settlement not being made within the !!lime
fixed, the flag was taken down, as above, stated,
but without any violence attending its removal.
Denim BilitGLASY.—The house or dm
- - _
Proclor; in Washington street, above Seoond,was
entered about four o'clock on Satnrday morning,.
The burglar, went into the room of Mra. Proctor,
and stole a gold hunting watch and chain, a half.
doren of silver spoons, and a live-dollar note. plre.
Proctor, hearing a noise and seeing the man, dried
murder: Be told her if oho made any failhor
noise ho would eat her. She screamed loudcr,f and
succeeded id arousing two or three of the inMates
of the house, who, on going into the entry, found
the burglar about making his way down staira.
They caught hold of him, but he succeeded in
getting from them, and fled down stairs into the
yard, and there scaled several fences: • Two loffi
core, hearing the cry of " murder," rushed to) the
spot, but were toe late to do any good. Geprge
Slack, a young man, was arrested on mutpicion of
being implicated, and wee held for a hearing be
fore Alderman Beitler.
A 130 T Br .OALLING THROUGIi A
IfxrentrAy..-On Sattirday. about noon, a shocking
accident occurred at the iron building, northeast
corner of Fifth and Chestnut streets, A maan

I Robert Thompson Sentenced to Death
her the 'Murder of John Capie:
On Saturday, the cam of Mrs. France, then on
trial, was „interrupted by the entrains of Judge
riorapeon, who came to nil the bench in order to
dispose of the Thompeon caw. The prisoner was
in the dock, looking eater and dejected. . -
Judge Allison, bolero whom the oace was tried,
on behalf of the court, overruled the motion in an
arrest'of judgment, es the roaeona filed are the
same tie these paned upon in the Miller case:
Mr. Mann than addrdssed the coterie as follow :
At the pril teem of Otis eotirt, Robert Thomp
son, the prieener -at the bar, was indlotedlee the
wilful murder of John Oapio. At the Deeember
cessions he was arraigned, and plead not guilty.
A jury was called,-and on the 10th day of Feb
ruary they memo into court and rendered a,verdiet
,of guilty of murder in the fi rst degree. ' Subse
quently, the prisoner's counsel moved the court for
a new Arial, and in arrest of judgment. Thesemo.
lions have both boon disposed of against the psi.
Loner, and it now becomes my painful duty to move
the court that the judgment which the law affixes
to the crime be peered upon the prisoner.
Me. Sharkey, the clerk, was then directed to
ask the prisoner if he had anything to say why
sentence of death should not be peered.
Thompson responded that he had nothing to say
other than what had-been said by his counsel.
Judge Anise]; then passed sentence,. saying :
Robert Thompson, the matched= of the court,
upon the %anew reasons urged by your vermeil,
in support of the rule for a new trial, and an ar
rest or judgment, leaves us no alternative but to
proceed to the discharge of the most trying and
solemn duty which the law imposes upon thosa
whom it clothes with judicial authority. Upon
the verdict which Rude recorded against yon we
are required to enter judgment, which declares
your life forfeited to the violated laws of your
country; for the crime of which you stand con
vioted, that of murder of tha first degree, is reatie
iled with no expiation other than the payment of
the fearful penalty of. the sacrifice of your life, for
that of your victim. In daioharging this Bad duty,
our consolation is that tide in not our act, bite tbat
of the law; whose ministers we are, and that we
incur no personal responsibility other then .that
Whet requires ns to be satisfied with the eerreet
nets of the verdict upon its merits, and with the
law as it bat been administered in the trial of
the cause. In your case, it is with unfeigned re
gret that we have 'been compelled to say. we find
no eutleient reason to justify us in acceding to
your request, that a new trial be granted to you,
and that another opperruvity be efforded you
to disprove the truth of the Commonwealth',
charge, of having without euthonty or eight
taken the life of John Oapie.
_I desire net now,-in this your most trying hour,
to say ono word that may unneceseartly add to
yin; sorrow, or to the distress cf the hiendi with
whom you stand most tenderly and eh:B4ly con
nected in life—far, however guiltyyou May be, it
accords not with my own inclination, neither does
it comport with the digniteref the law, nor with its
humane spirit and' teachings, upon this occasion
to enter into a detailed eel:mitten of the eiretem
ataneei connected with the d eath of the unfortunate
man for whose wilful and deliberate murder you
stand this day adheiged to be guilty ; but.l may
be permitted to say that it was ray solemn duty,
standfng in the place where I now stand, upon this
judgment seat, with the deceased before me, as you
now aro, convicted, and, I never doubted; right
fully convicted, of the murder, becelel blood, of a
fellow.being, to pace upon him the dread sentence
of the law, which directed that' ho - should ha
taken from here to - the plane of execution, and be
hanged by the nook until he was dead. 'lt was,
however; deemed proper by the power in the
State intrusted with the exercise of executive
ele
meney to interpose in his behalf, and to Stay the
execution oftho sauterne which contlemtmeltim to
die. Tat although the judgment of the law woe
thus turned aside ' fee avenging aim of retributive
juetioe followed up on hie track, mad when he leeat
expected it, the divine dooreea againet the unlaw
ful shedding of man's blood found an executioner ;
for, according to the verdict of a jury eteisen by
yourself, which verdict now stands --recorded
against you, you, with deliteretlon, anti without
provocation from him, took Ma life, and for the
commisston of this deed the law requlree that you
shall sager the - extreme. t penalty. And now, re
gretting as I moat sincerely do, the necessity which
compels me to pronounce the sentence ofedeath
against one 80 young R 5 yen, I yet may net quer
nen the justice of tho law, which to wilful mali
°ions murder, a ffi xes fhe penalty of death, en I do net
qucition, after the most earefal consideration, the
eerrentness of the verdict which toned you to be
guilty of 'the mime of which yon have been oon

Before I °lose my painful duty; as a - minister of
the law, whose voice I utter, not my awn, let me
in ali kindsteas suggest to you how few, according
to the judgment of the law, are yeur remaining
diva, and how brief the time which wiLi be allowed
to on for preparation for that hoar which CICIP3S
your 'mortal career, and ushers you into the pro
ton() of the Judge of all the Earth. To HIM yon
mityfreely tutu for pardon ; and let me warn you
to trust not in the hope, which may prove to be but
a delusive hope, that the night of eteath will not, at

to. go to Him for forgitieness, however guilty, 00
however aggravated their tranagrewden.
The sentence of the coot, therefore, IN that
you, Robert Thompson, the prisoner at the bar, ho
taken from hence to the jail of the county of Phi
ladelphia, from whence you came, and from thence
to the place of execution, and that you be there
banged by the neck until you be dead. And may
God have mercy on your soul.
The some wee a very impressive one. All the
judges stood while Judge Allison addressed the
prisoner. The utmost silence prevailed, broken
only by the quivering voice of the judge who was
passing sentence.
Thompson maintained his composure during alt
this trying ordeal, but after the jaciges lied re
sumed their seats, and Mr. Cassidy, the prisoner's
counsel, advanced towards the clock, he geVe way
to a liked of tears.
Aa tho case will bo carried to the Supremo Court,
the Cl ovornor will not be called upon to &a a day
