Attempted Suicide Long Speech of the
Culprit.
UntUDATSBCRO, Angust 21. DaWtl H.
McKim conticUd or killing Mr. NorcroBg,t
-Alton in this State, leveral rooothl nines
wa executed at 20 minutoi before 1 o'clock
tint afternoon. He made along speech on
the scaffold, occupying nearly two hours, in
which he gave a sketch of his career through
lift), and elludea loiuemaroer, ana aiiempieu
to show that it was not probable that he did
it. For some time past be lost tbe omial
cheerfulness that be manirusted In conversa
tion and became rather melancholy.
The prisoner slept daring the greater por
tion of the night. In the morning be opened
a vein in his wrist, bnt was timelr discovered.
lie then ate a heart? breakfast, le a fit of
passion he destroyed tbe manuscript speech
lie intended making on the scaffold.
At 8 o'clock he commenced devotional ser
vices, which where continued until ho was
brought out of the Jail.
llov. Messrs. Junkln and McLean and tbo
officers, accompanied bim to the scalTuld.
On the scaffold be spoke for an hour and
seven minutes, the prisoner protesting bis in
nocence to the last. I lis closing words were,
I leave my poor mother, wife and child to
the care of heaven I" And then turned to tbe
Hhorifl, directed him to go ahead as soon as
bo pleased. He spoke very loud and distinct
and classed many of the witnesses at the trial
as liars. But ho said he forgavo all and be
liever be was going to heaven and to Jepus.
The drop felf nt thirty-five minutes past
twelve o'clock, the unrortuuato man dying
Vithout a struggle.
In addition to the above, the Bulletin has
m despatch giving the follewing particulars :
Last night people from a distonce come
into Hie town and BO great wos the rush that
beds could not be procured at me iioieis ana
many wire compelled to lie ppon floors, tables
ttnd chairs.
This morning a stream of hnmanity com
menced ponring ir.to the town at a very early
liortr ana-nothing wns talked abont or thouhgt
of but the condemned ftjid his approaching
end- .. . .
The sIicrifT wos beset jTslenlay end this
morning, by persons who were anxious to get
within the prison walls to witness the last
dread scene: but a very few out of the im
mense throng were gratified iu their wish to
be allowed to cuter the enclosure ond the dis
appointed multitudo had to reBt contented
with gazing at the prison walls or in picking
np such scraps of information from withiu
doors as were retailed outside.
AH sorts of rumors were in circulation dur
ing the morrfing, nnd those who weut out of
the prison doors during tho forenoon were
eagerly questioned by tho crowd, what the
condemned wuireaying and doing and above
nil to nsccituiu whether ho hud made any con
f:sniuli. McKim slept soundly duriog the greater
pin t of last night. A t six o'clock thismor-i
Ring he attempted to commit suicide by open-,
tug a vein in his wrist with a peico or glass.
Tho blood (lowed freely for awhile, but it was
J recovered in timo to prevent" serious results,
ind the wound was immediately tjrtur.d up.
A close watch whs Hip set over tbe con
loomed wretch to prevent a second attempt
;f the samn kind. Neither the awful position
the condemned, his attempted suicide, nor
xh; being foil'd in the attempt to destroy him
wST, effected Lid appetite, for he ulu a hearty
jcsukfist,
ireat calculations were made ou the man-isc-ipt
statement which the condemned had
irepared for the purpose of reading uudet the
.'allow?, uud many thought that iu it would
id found un admission of his guilt, but this ex
,ecltion was dniipointed this morning when
tiu announced tbot MoKimlmd deetroyod
(lie paper be had prepared. It seems that,
titit of mg ho tore tho "stalemout" to
p!-ees.
Tho repmt of the attempted suicide of the
Kinrderer and itf liU having turn the much
tallied of pii per to pieces, created an immense
M'listitiitiuii out of (lours, and the excitement
went up to fever heat.
At fiflveu minutes past ten o'clock the con
demned nvui was led cut of prison to the gal
lnw. Alter mounting the scaffold McKim
proceeded to address the assembled crowd,
and he-spoko for one hour and five miuutes.
lie denied hi guilt most ehemently. ond suid
that he declared before God and with his last
breath that be died an innoetDt man.
McKim Kiiid that Im had uever cither com
niitted murder nor fctolt) money, or anything
else. Ho also paid that Altioks Fleck and
mother witues had sworn away his life on his
trial.
At twenty fiva minutes before one
o'clock Sheriff" Fort pulled Ilia drop and the
wretched criminal was luuuchedin to eternity
declaring his iunoceuce until the lust
in cut.
There were tbreo tiiillitnry companies on
dutv around the jail, and notwithstanding Uie
immouao Crowds iu tho towii) everything pas-
Bed offomutly.
After the body is cut down it Will be handed
ov-.-r to the relatives of the malefactor who
have had praparod a uiudioiuo coQiu for its
reception.
It will be remembered that tho crime for
which McKim has suffered tho extreme penal
tv or the law was the murder, io January last
or a young man named Sumtiel T. Norcrofe,
lormeny oi cast i-exiugion .uiiss. norcross
had eoue from his borne to tho West in the
capacity or music teacher. After residing
there for some timo ho returned to Massachu
setts and borrowed S10UO from bis sisters.
This money be returned with to the West and
invested it in lands iu Uubuijc, Iowa and lun
leit!i, Illinois. Tho property rose so rapidly
in value, that ho commenced the study of
inodiciao with Dr. Buruhold, relying upon tbe
interest of bis money to support bun in tlie
meautime an abcess formed ou his left side,
which became painful and ho determined to
rotarn home. McKim who made his ac
quaintance accompanied him. Norcross
obtained bis money iu MtKinn presence
ike two started in company on the journey
McKim treated Norcross with great kiud-
jiess until he had won his friendship and es
Jteera and Dually killed and robbed him on the
cnorning of the lCthof Jauuary last, on the
&eBylvania Railroad track, three miles west
of Albooaa, where the victim was found in a
.J viiir coaditiou. by some laborers on tho same
iii o ruing probably two hours after tho con
mission of the deed.
Tho murder of was aged to evade the officers
of the law for several wecke after the commis
sion of the crime, ond he was finally captured
in a mountanous spot in Columbia couuty by
A -Mr. Woire.
U is trial commenced at Hollidaybiirg the
last of April, although bis commission of the
crime was uot directly proven a powerful
chain of cireumstantuil evidence wua linked
together. The Commonwealth proved con
clusively tho departure of McKim from Dun
leith with Norcross apparently haviug
charge of him at tho Eagle Hotel iu J'ittsburg
,acd the story he told the landlord about Nor
cross' insanity j the departure from tka hotel
in company; the testimony of a railroad cm
iiloyee to seeing two men get off the train at
AUoona, and go up tbe track on the morning
.of the murder; tbe non-appearance of McKim
in Philadelphia to claim bis baggage ; his
subsequent appearanco in Fottsville with two
lewd women bis reckless quandering of money
And subseauuut disappearance when subepi
cious wag aroused, and a number other very
auspicous circumstances.
Against all these tremendous facts tbe de
fence offered do testimony, except some en
tirely unimportant negative evidence, and the
result was a conviction of murder in the first
. degree. After fait couviction, he made an
unsuccessful attempt to escape by sawiog off
lis bobble, lie pretisted in declaring bis
muocence of tbe murder uutil the last. .
CRIME On DROADWAT, NEW YOIIK
SOAHDAli.
To-day's N. Y. llernld bat the following t
The past bas been a scandalous week
among the demimonde between Broome street
and Astor place. (Jamming houses are sup
posed to be entirely suppressed, but we bear
or a great fight at one of those establishments,
near the St. Nicholas. Knives were used,
and one of tho combatants was severely
wounuea. un tue next meut tbe entertain
ment was repeated at another gambling house
In l'rince street, near Broadway. Tbe police
did not interfere, or even report the facts, or
attempt to make any arrests.
On Monday, two well-known members of
me sporting iratermty lert town Tor Canada
to settle disputo about a lady, by resort
to tbe code of honor. Keally we live In an
age of progress.
. A little further np, and In a shade of better
society, there bas been a curious case of
aim. con., the particulars of which we trans
late from the Courier dee Ktats Unit :
SCANDAL AT TIIR NKW YORK IIOTKI.. ''
On Saturday evening the New York Hotel,
which, as every one knows, is one of tbe
principal resorts of Southern travellers, was
the theatre or an abortive drama, in which
one or tho principal actors may congratulate
himself in having made a fortunate escape.
The following are the precise details or the
affair, as we have obtained them from tbo
best sources :
A mong the transient residents or the hotel
was Mrs. W , a younjr and pretty lady
rrom Louisiana, who was enjoying too freely
her husband's absence be having remained
in New Orleans on account of business. A
gentleman of middle ago, said to be rich, an
auctioneer by profession, Mr. F , had
'overbid tenchen) with the greatest success
on the charming Creole, and their intimacy
nod cone so lar mat it was noticed and com
mented upon by several inmates of tbe hotul.
Among those Was a friend of Mr. W ,
who thought it bis duty to adviso him of
wuul occurred in bis absence, aud to enjuin
hint, either by telegraph or moil, to come on
as soitQ as possible to put a stop to tbe
scandal. As soon as he received the message
Mr. W. left New Orleans without advising
any one of it, ni?il arrived in New York on
Saturday evening, with a revolver in his
pocket, determined to take tho law into his
own hands. 1 1 was in su."b a disposition of
mind that be went to the NV'W York Hotel,
where) bis faithless butter half teas boarding,
and inquired for tbe number or her room.
He had no trouble at all to get in. Full
or imprudent security and not suspecting tbat
the outraged busbund, wbom they thought
for off, was already edvuncing iu tho hall
the two lovers had not even been cautious
enough to lock tho door. Mr. W enter
ed as if lie was at home, and although it was
very early in the evening, 1ms found bis wire
and Mr. F iu a position easier to imagine
than to describe, aud which did not aduiit of
any possible false explanation.
Without uttering a word, Mr. W. drow
his revolver and tired at the guilty party.
Mr. F. uot being hit, jumped out of bed, ran
to the door, where, on opening it, be was
shot at a second time, and took flight head
long towards tbe hall, followed by his terrible
enemy. The fugitive had nothing on but a
single flannel undershirt, and at that moment
it seemed to be least of bis cares.
But one can iudgo of tbo sensation created
by this straugo apparition among the persons
nastcning :rum ell sides alter tue noise or tue
firing or pistols. Mr. F. running head-fore
most arrived at tho head of the staircase,
descended in great baste turned to the right
and slopped in one of tbe cells of the water-
closets of lh) hotel, in which he bolted him
self close.
The pursuit had been hot. He could hear
from his unpoetical shelter the tumult on the
stuirs, nnd the struggle to stop and disurm
tho terrible husband. He, however, did not
rnly on his ears, and consented to oiieu the
door only when summoned by the police, nnd
upon the lormul promise tbat bis lne should
bo protected.
It bas been said that Mr. F. was wounded ;
bnt we believe it to be untrue, nnless one
means the double wound to his love and his
self love.
As Mr. W. immediately left for tho South
with his wife, we are inclined to believe that
the affuir will go no further, after having
caused less blood tbuu sweat aud tears to be
shed.

HUSSEY'S
AMERICAN REAPER,
FOR CUTTING 1IOTII
GRAIN AND GRASS,
GREAT improvements for 1857. 'Ibis Ma
chine was put in succskIuI operation in 183:)
and continued to be tbe only leaping and Mow
ing Machine in tho World, of any practical value
up to IS 15 twelve years after iu introduction.
Other Reapers are now oflered with glowing ad
vertisements. Certificates, Diplomas, (iolJ and
Silver Medals, lie. But the Farmer in search
of the best Reaper, and nut posted in the inaftcr,
had better see a little further.
If there is any Taluo in 24 years ciiieiienco
in building Reaprrs, and using them in the bar
vest field, and in the improvements made during
that long period, OBED HUSSEY.the Father
of Reapers, can claim it. All who are satisfied
with tbe Best iicnper and Mower, uan be sup
plied by sending their Orders early in tbe season,
as tbe crops iudirute a large demand, und we enn
not have over 200 Readv for tbe vast harvest
of 1857. We guarantee tbat this Reaiirr and
Mower can not bo beaten on fair trial by any
other Reaier that muy be brought into the harvest
fields in 1M57, and we also insure it to be the
strongest and most duralilc machine in use. We
would respectfully invite Farmers to examine
the mat bine thoroughly before purchasing, and
satisfy themselves of its superiority over all
others.
During tho last bur years, tbe subjcrilwrs have
sold between 500 and 600 of these Machines, to
the best and most successful Farmers in Montour,
I'nioii and the neighboring counties, (whose
names urs too numerous to insert) to whom we
respectfully refer.
The sutiHciibers nave -ne exclusive tigm in
tbe tollowiiig counties: Montour, Luion, Snyder,
Northumberland, Columbia, Luzerne, Perry,
Mitbin, Centre, Clinton and Lycoming. All
oiders thankfully received and promptly attend
