It is a sad adieu 'twist soul, and body, until the coming of that day, when, at the sound of the last trump,. the portals of the &aye shall be I thrown open, and the - earth be made to yield up its dead. And, when it is inflicted as a just and merited punishment for crime—when a murderer is called to yield up his life on the-, altar of retributive justice, however obdurate he may have become, however seared his conscience, and whatever outward appear ance of hardihood and insensibility he may assume—it is difficult, if not impossible, for him to contemplate it without horror, and -an awful and inward dread of entering upon a different ~-and an -unknown state of exis tence, in ariother and unknown world, with the stain of upon his hands, and the weight of withering and cousuming - guilt pressing upon his soul.

Yet it - did not unsettle your bloody purpose, nor arrest your murderous hand. But in the. emphatic language of the indictment,-''being moved and seduced by the instigation of the devil," for 110 other influence could have prompted to snit an outrage, you broke through all restraint, and regardless of the laws, both ofG od and man, and reckless of every consequence, plunged into a scene of shocking and complicated crime, to whicli_no parallel is remembered, and such, as it is believed the pages of judi cial history furnish no record of. The hus- and and wire, their two little innocent children and unborn infant, her father who 'lodged in a room above and a lad an initiate of-the - house,—were all, all involved in one common ruin, all inhumanly murdered, and by you. And after having first plundered it, with the calculating coolness and delib eration of a demon, you set fire to the house in which they had slept,'in imaginary se- curity, and which but for you might have continued the abode of innocence and peace; with a view no doubt, toobliterate all traces - if violence, by consuming their mangled and lifeless bodies in the devouring element, and thereby to destroy all evidence of their haviag come to their untimely end by means of any human agency. But did you also hope to lude your guilt, from the all seeing and omnipresent God, to whom all things are known, and from whom no secrets are hid? Vain and pre sumptuous hope—the very means resorted to for safety and concealment, proved the ready and sure means of your detection. The flame you lighted to -consume their bodies, served also to attract and light the neighbours to the scene of desolation, before the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Newey were entirely consumed,. the mortal wounds still visible upon which plainly indicated that a murderer had been there! though, horrible to relate, the bodies of all the rest were burnt to ashes. The finger of suspicion directed by the unerring- hand of Providence, pointed to you , as the fell destroyer of those, for whose blood you will soon be required to make atonement with yeur own; and notw ithstand iug. your supposed well laid scheme of con cealment and imaginary security, you blind ly carried about you the damning evidence of your guilt, unconcions of the dangers that beset you on all sides, and of the stroke that was about- to fall upon and crush you.
