It is merely a resolution of the House, not re? quiring tho concurrence of tho Senate or the signature of the President, and ba? no legal force.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-In the Supreme Court to-day Chief Justice Chase dismissed the McArdle oase for want of jurisdiction. In tho case of the steamboat Belfast vs. Boone, from the Supreme Court of Alabama, the decision was reversed, with coate, and with directions to dismiss the libel. The court in . this oase claims federal j ur .?diction in marine and admiralty cases from the sea to tho head of navigation in rivers. In the case of B. F. Hall vs. Geo. Coppell, of Iowa, the judgment of the Louisiana court , was - reversed with costs. The court decided that a foreign consul engaged in trade dutiug tho war, has no more rights in business than a citizen'of the United States. , v. Justice Chase delivered the opinion of the court in the Texas bond case, holding that tho annexation of Texas made it a State of the Union, and that BO act of the oitizens and gov ' ernment alone has or could dissolve that relation. He decided thal the ordinance of secession and all legislative acts in aid of the rebellion wera void; that the . Legislature was au illegal body; that the 1 United States bonds in question were tho pro? perty of Texas at the time of secession, and that the law of Texas which required their transfer was illegal. Therefore, the Stato of Texas has the right to recover the bonds and ' perpetuate the injunction, and it is decreed accordingly. The court holds that Congress had no right to adopt measures of reconstruc? tion. JusticV Grier dissented as to the merits and jurisdiction of tho oase, holding that Texas was not, in fact, a State in the Union. Justices Swayne and Miller dissented as to the jurisdiction only. THE FIFTEENTH AME NJ) MENT AGAIN LOST IN INDIANA. INDIANAPOLIS, April 12.-There was no quo? rum of tho Legislature yesterday. The newly elected Democratic members have resolved to stay away, thus again defeating the Fifteenth amendment. SPARKS FROM THE WIRES. The missing people from tho steamer Thames, burned ofi Hatteras, are safe. Dispatches from all parts of the world report a splendid celebration of the Pope's Jubilee. The steamer G. A. Thompson, from Cincin? nati to Little Rook, was suuk in seventeen feet of water and lost.. ! General Stoneman, with the 25th United States Infantry," left Richmond yesterday, eu route for California. The United States steamer Gettysburg, has been ordered to take line soundings on the coast of Cuba an i the neighboring islands. Governor Wells addressed a large Republican meeting in Richmond, yesterday afternoon, giving the history of the Virginia Election bill, the passage of which be largely attributed to his influence. A Fortress Monroe dispatch says that there was a violent northeast snow storm yesterday, and that a large number of vessels, including two ocean steamers, weie driven to the roads for a harbor. , LETTER FROM THE ENROLLING OFFICER. Gunin, the enrolling officer, writes tho fol? lowing letter to the Abbeville Press: I hope you will indulge me by inserting thin card in your paper. I see a correspondence m the Columbia Pbomx between his Excellency R. K. boott aud Mr. Williams, relative to the organization of the indina. I received in? structions from the A oi ut ant (lenci al to raise a company. 1 first trica to raise ? white com? pany, but never eur ?lied a single white man. There was only one alternative left, and that was to eap yll colored men, which I sa? at once -would so disorganise labor as to make it almost impossible to make a crop in this country. I wrote immediately to Governor boott telling him my tears organizing a colored company, and in reply receive! a lotter from his Excellency R. E. Scott, saying h? did not intend for me to commence enrolling at once. And inst mot od me to notify all .those wishing to enroll them? selves in the militia, that for the presont the enrollment will be suspended; advise the labor? ers to devote themselves to their employment, sud w.iste no time in looking for military or? ganizations. 1 can safely say if the civil la wi are enforced by the officers noir in office, the oitizens of Abbeville need never fear the pres? ence of an ar tr ed foroe again. ' But when a magistrate ls told to his face that if he had issued a warrant for the arr ist of certain parties for a violation of tbe peuce, that neither he nor his constable could arrest thom, (and I know they have not been arres< ed, ) I will just ask the good law-abiding citizens, if the civil law fails to reach those oases, muet we submit and lot them go at large, a terror to the oountry ? Respectfully, ? LEM. L. QtVBWS. FROM THE STATE CAPITAt. The Agricultural Convention-Building nnd Loan A s rn oe i a ti o n-Senator Sprague and the Columbia Canal-A Sketch of the New Postmaster-Wo? man's Mights and Spiritualism. [FROM OUB OWN COBBESPONDENT.J COLUMBIA, April 12,1869.-The subject moat in the minds of our countrymen in and about Columbia is the Agricultural Convention, which ?8 to come off on the 28th instant. '1 ho preparations aro already made, aud lhere is fair hope of a successful affair. Mr. Wright, of Nickerson's Hotel, offers two inducements tho U80 of his hall, whiob is a suitable ono, and board to delegates at half price. As the Co? lumbia Hotel-a Ano new building on Main? street-is to be oponed in time for tho conven? tion, lt is not impossible that tho spirit of liberal competition may offer soiuo other or groator indue .imou ts in this direction. The prompt action of ?he com? mittee authorized by tho Board of Directors of the South Carolina Institute to invite and nom? inate delegates to tho convention, from the coast, is higbly satisfactory; and is universal? ly felt to indicate that that portion of the State means business, and that tho same spirit will pervade tho convention. The up-country is a littlo slow, to say tho least of it, in this move? ment; although in Abbeville County-the prota? gonist in this moasuro-Andersoii, Richland, and, I hear, Fairfiold, have already appointed their delegates; and it is believed here that, with one or two exceptions, all tho counties traversed by railroad at least, will como up to time and bo ready on tho 28th. SAVINGS BANK AND BUILDINO AND LOAN ASSOCIA? TION. Since the establishment of thc National Bank in this city, two other steps in the financial way have been taken; ono of thom within tho last few days. These two step a aro a savings bank and a building and loan association, both new things to our poople. Both have long been definitely wanted, and both promise to do essential service in their way; butacouploof extensive cotton factories ou that Columbia Canal that Senator Sprague bought a few months ago, would do four times as much good in a material way for our community. Rumors begin to come in nov that Senator Sprague is to broik ground towards building his mammoth factory sometime towards the end of the incoming summer. THIS NEW POSTMASTER. The appointment of Charles M. Wilder to be postmaster at this place is understood to be indication of the President's polioy towards the South, rather than as a special blow at a place or at persons. That is to say, Wilder, although colored-he is a white quadroon, or three-quarters ,white-is, perhaps, the least objectionable, "personilly, of all his darker race; and in appointing him the President has executed his vindictive and party-tool purpose in the least objectionable way ho could. Wilder is well known, and, apart from his contact with the party in which he serves, is uni? versally respected. Ho has but little educa? tion and moderato ability; but is not defiled by any of tho arrant prostitution of principles that smutches almost every ono of his party associates. Ho is the most docent negro of the Radical party that could have been appointed, and, negro as he is, ho stands bead and shouldeis abovo the white scal? awags and carpet-baggers who have wormed themselves through dirty ways into so many of oiir offices. Wilder gives up his trade as carpenter for bia new ofhae. He has not taken any steps towards entering upon the duties yot, and probably will not until another build? ing be secured, as the ono in which the office is now kept belongs to the late incumbent him? self. WOMEN'S niOHTS AND SPIRITUALISM. As savings banks and building and loan as? sociations go together, and wo have the pair, so haye we another pair of novelties-woman's rights and spiritualism. Late in tho session of the recent Legislature the Judioiary Com? mittee, in the presence of the adjourned H ouse,heard Louisa Rawlins-a well-known mu lattress of Charleston-deliver her views upon the constitutionality of women's voting. The entering wedge of spiritualism-spiritism is the proper word-was the lecture announced in Sun day morning's Phoenix, and which came off Sun? day evening at Janney'g Hall. The subject is "Humanity's Final Triumph and Victory over Death;" and the lecturer, whose name does not appear, is a citizen of Columbia. Tho isms are coming in upon ns with a vengeance The lecturer presented the usual tenets of that rather heterogeneous doxy, oalled spiritualis tic-not taking issue with any religion, oxee pt (rather an important exception) the issue with the plenary inspiration of the Scriptures There was nothing specially new in the matter presented;, new, that is, to those who have dabbled into tho Andrew Jackson Davis litera ture. The audience was rather slim, consist? ing to a great extent of Jews and juveniles The lecturer was unquestionably in earnest in the gr-ivedt possible earnestness- while the bearers were far less so. CORSAIR. THE REGISTEAMSHIP OE MESNE CONVEYANCES. ? Judge Carpenter gave yesterday judgment of ouster against Hr. Henry Treacot, the Regis? trar of Means Conveyance, to which office Wil liam J. MoKinlay (colored) waa electod by the Legislature in Deoember last. The opinion of Judge Carpenter is as followi?*f**^ THE STATS BX RELATIONS THl^TTO&N EY-GENE? RAL Vd. HENRY TREBCOT-QU > WAjKBANTO. Opinion.-On the-day/ of January last the Attorney-General flied -bia suggestions for a writ of quo loarranto against the responde at. Henry Trescot, then holding thc office of Registrar ot Mesne Conveyances for Charleston County. That suggestion sets forth in brief, that on the 9tb day of Deoember, 1869 William J. McKinlay was duly elected by joint vote of the General Assembly, to the office of Kegistraf u? Munno Cnn voyance s for Charleston County that on the 6th day of January. 1869. he re coi ved his commis lion therefor from tho Gov ernor; that on the 7 th day of January, 1869. he was duly qualified for the said office; that on the 9th day of January, 1809, he made demand upon the respondent xor the possession and enjoyments of bis office, which demand has boon ret used np to the present time; and that the respondent is now usurping the office of Registrar of Mesne Conveyances, in violation ot tbe laws of the State : Wherefore the Attorney Genet al prays arnie against the respondent, requit ing bim to show cause by what authority he holds the h aid office; Ia accordance with the prayer of the sugges? tion above recited, a rule waa granted, re turn? sole on the first day of February last before me, sitting at Chumbera, requiring the re? spondent to answer to the allegations contain ed in tho saggestion ; on which day the x ?pondent appeared by counsel and made return to tho rule, ID substance, as follows : That, the respondent waa duly elected Registrar of Means Conveyances tor Charleston County, then Dis? trict, on the 1st day of Deoember. 188ft, and was qualified under the aaid election, on tho 241 h day of January, 1866; and ort the same day waa commissioned by Governor Jamen L Orr. the "commission to continue in foros for four years from tho tims of qualification whiob term has Dot yat expired ; the respond eut, therefore, claims that hs is legally entitled to the possession and enjoyment of bis offlos until tbs expiration of hts full tann of four years from the 24th day of January, 1866. Tho facta sot forth in tho suggestion and tho return to tho rulo are admitted both by re? lator and respondent. In the argument of the oause, it was maintained by tho Attorney General : 1st. That tho election under wbieh the res? pondent holds his office, was held under tho authority of tho Provisional Government of South Carolina, and that, consequently, his tenure of offico was at all times liable to bo terminated by the action of tho permanent govornniont whioh suoceedod it. 2d. That the tenure of office of the respond? ent was confirmed and continued by tho act of the General Assembly, passed August the 15th, 1868, until the election and qualifica? tion, according to law, of his successor. 8d. That tho oloction of VV. J. McKmlay on the 9th of December, 1868, and his subsequent qualification, according to law, terminated tho tenure of office of the respondent, and gave a clear right to his successor to enter at once upon his office. To determine this question in this case, it will be necessary to refer to the past history of the country. Aftor tho cessation of hostili? ties between the Un.ted States and Confede? rate States, tho President issued bis proclama? tion declaring that no form ot civil govern? ment existed in South Carolina, appointed a Governor and authoriz d the people of the State, upon the terms and conditions therein prescribed, to hold a convention and form a .state Government. Under and by virtue of that proclamation a convention was called, a constitution was formed, officers wore elected under it, a Legislature assembled, passed laws and the new government went into full operation. The source of this new State gov? ernment was military power. Tho President derived his authority to permit its establish? ment from ?us military character, as Cominan dei-iu-Chief of tho Army and Navy of the United States. Said government was provis? ional and ten porary, not permanent and es? tablished. The civil authority might alter or abolish it at pleasure. (Litensdorfer & Hough? ton vs. Wobb, 20 Howard, 176.) And this was exercised by tho pasBago of the act of March 2, 1857, entitled "An act to provide tor the more efficiont government of tho rebol States." This aot deel res in express terms that no legal State governments exist in the States therein named, among which is that of South Carolina: provides in what manner said Mates shall bo governed, and upon what conditions they shall be finally admitted to representation in the Congress of the United States: that "until such States are by law ad? mitted to representation in the Congress of the United States, any civil government which may exist therein shall be deemed provisional only, and in all respects subject to the para? mount authority of the United States to modi? fy, control or supersede the same." The aots amending that or March 21, con? firm beyond a doubt this view of the then civil government of this State. Under and by vir? tue of these acts a convention was called in this State, a constitution formed, submitted to the qualified electors, and by them adopted; ind a government was thereupon organized, which, by the terms of the acts of Congress md the nature of the case, was permanent and established. It is a well settled principle of law establish? ed by elementary writers and an unbroken cur? rent of judicial decisions, that oven in a con? quered country, the laws iu force at the time jf the conquest rema ns so, until repealed or modified by the conqueror; and a fortiori this s the true rule under th J peculiar circumstau ies to which I have referred. The act of 1812 (vol. 5th of the statutes, page 674) provided that Registrars of Mesne Conveyances should thereafter bo elected by ?oint ballot of both branches of the Legis? lature, for four years, and until another bo sleeted. By the act of 1826, the Registrar of Mesno Conveyances was required to give a bond abd md security for the faithful perfo.manee of the duties of his offico. ( Vol. 6-283 ) Section 80, Article 2, Constitution of ?-'outh Carolina, requires members of the General Assembly, and all officers, before they enter lpon the execution or ino unties ot meir res? pective offices, and all members of the Bar, jet'ore they enter upon the practice of their irolessiou. to take and subscribe the oath in laid section prescribed. It will be observed that a new condition not jetoro required was imposed upon that officer jy this constitutional provision. The respondent having been elected on the 1st day of December, 1865, and commissioned lan nary 24th, 1866, os the acts ot tho General assembly.in reference to the offico of Registrar lave not been repealed, ho will be entitled to jontinue m office until the 24th day of January lext, unless his official tenure has been termi ?ated by tho act of August, 15th, 1868. (SOBS. tots, page 4,) and the subsequent election and qualification of W. J. McKinlay. Section 1 maota " that all State, District and Municipal i Ricer s appointed or elected under the late Provisional Government of South Carolina, not .emoved by military authority, and whose pla? ies have not been filled by election or appoint-, neut under the new constitution, shall con? tinue in office until their se feral offices are Hied by the election or appointment and quali ication according to law of their successors, or mtil the duties of such offices havo been de? volved by authority of th e General Assembly ipon other officers duly elected or appointed, ind qualified ocoording to law, under the new ^institution." The office not being one of those provided br in the constitution, was liable to be altered >r abolished by tho legislative power, upon ho organization of the permanent govern nene. That department, however chose not t > imend the act or abolish the office, but instead provided that the incumbent should remain in iffioeu i til his successor sbonld be elected and mali lied; the word "until," in the above con lection, is a word of limitation; the meaning herefore is that he shall continue in office un? til tbe election or appointment and qualifica? tion according to law of his successor, and no [ onger. Where the meaning ot the body of the ict is doubtful, the title may bo relied on os m assistance in arriving at a conclusion. [Sedgwick on Stat, and Con. Law, page 50, and ?osea there cited.) The title of the act of 1868 is "an Act regula? ting the tenure of certain offices and appoint? ments thereto and for other purposes." * All the offices whoso tenure? are regulated by this statute wo-o created by former statutes, ?nd the term for which the incumbents wera to hold them respectively, fixed by law, hence the title seems dearly to inchoate an intention JU the part of the Legislature to change the then existing terms of the persons to whom the act applied. William J. McKinlay was elected on the ninth lay of December, 1868, by joint ballot of both louses of the Genera) Assembly; on the sixth lay ot January, I860, ho was duly qualified by riving the required bond and taking the oath it office prescribed by the new constitution. This was an election and oualifloation within the intent of the act of 1868, and hence the term of Mr. Trescofc expired on the day the ilaiuiant in this case complied with t heso cou? inions precedent. The construction of this, and the prior acts >fthe Legislature contended for by the re? spondent, not only does violence to the language >f that ot 1868, but makes the whole act of no ?ffoct; in short construes it avoiy altogether. The former act, and that of 1868, should br* ionstrued pari materia, and then it would teem to admit of little doubt that the legisla? te will was that the offioera should be dented >y joint ballot, should give bond, take the pre icribed oath, and conti nue i i offico for four rears, provided those who were elected by the Provisional Government con ti nus in office only intil their successors should be elected. If he Legislature bad devolved the duties of his office upon the Clerk of the Court of Com non Pleas and General Hessians, would it be ?on toi id od that Mr. Tree co t's term of offioe did lot oe aso the moment such an aot became law? Che same words of limitation having been ned m roferenco to both contingencies, it oems clear to in y mind that the same result ollows, vis : that the legal tenure ot Mr. Tres >ot was determined and ended on the day that he claimant qualified according to law. and hat therefore the State is entitled to judg nent of ouster against the respondent.

A SUICIDE AND AN EXECUTION. Octal!* or thc S ute M.- of Twitchell History of ttl? Crln&e-Scenes at the .Execution of Herald ; .Eaton-He Pro? test? his Innocence ?o the Last-At? tempt at Resuscitation. The Philadelphia papers, come to us tilled with the details of the ?inc de of Twitch ell ?md tho hanging of Eaton on Thursday last. Wo make some extracts : ? SUICIDE OF TWITCHELL. Twitchell was found, at 5.20 A. M., lying on his back, with his hands. clenched and his mouth wide open, showing marks of an ago? nized death. Atter death the body became very much discolored. Hubsoquent investiga? tion showed that he had come to his death oy strychnine, and that Eaton was fully aware ot Twit ch ol I'd in l <H>t ion to commit suicide. Tho following statements wore elicited from the watchman of the prison : Twitched was visited on Wednesday afternoon by his friend (Mo Cully), by his lather ana by the Hov. Mr. Hringhurst, his spiritual n'lviser. The inter? view bet woen tho culprit aid his friend (Mc Cnlly.) was very affecting Tho father of tho Erisoner romaincd until a late hour, and after e hal gone tho clergy m. AI stayed with the prisoner until half-past eleven, when the pris? oner requested that he ray/ht bo loft alone, as ho felt a desiro to get a little sleep during tho night. Ito was utterly prostrated during tho afternoon, and so weak that it was thought that it would havo been necessary to support him to the scaffold. At twp o'clock this morn? ing, tho watchman says Be looked into Twit? chers cell and saw him stretched at full length upon the bed, with the bedclothes drawn over his hoad. Tho watchman supposed him to be asleep. At a quarter past five this morning tho keeper wont to the cell and called to awake the prisoner: but,,receiving no reply, entered the coll and found that George 3. Twitoholl was a lifeless corpse. On the previ? ous night, owing to the account given by Jerry Eaton-who occupied a oell in sight of Twitchell's and within easy hearing distance of it-ot what had passed durum- tho evening be? tween Twitchell and himself, the coll of the former was carefully searched to see if he had any means of committing flutoide. Eaton had related that on calling out to Twitched to cheer up and die like a man, Twitchell said: "You will have to go alone txvrnorrow; I'll not be with you;'' and then held up his thumb and finger, as if holding something between them, and said, "Mum's the word." From this Eaton concluded that Twitchell intended to commit suicide, and informed the keeper of his suspi? cions. A post-mortem examination of the body was held at three o'clock this aftornoo i, and the following testimony before the ooroner's {ury was elicited. No clue was obtained os to low Twitchell procured the poison: Dr. E. B. Shapleigh being sworn, said : I mado a post-mortem examination of the body of Twitchell; the oyes were examined first, and a peculiar diyness about the corners was ob? served; there was a stain on the lower lip, which could not be washed away; the brain was examined, the blood-vessels of which wore found to bo excessively congested, and the odor of prussic aoid was noticeable besides a peculiar redness of blood; that which ran upon the bench and floor did Hot coagulate; the lungs were congosted; tho heart was flaoid and contained fluid blood; the liver was in a normal condition; the stomach contained but a small quantity of ilmd, but no solid food; tho mucous membrane of the stomach was in a state of high congestion; Uio odor of prussic acid was observed whenever the body was opened; I had no doubt on my mind as to the cause of death from the examination; but in search i nt; the coli I discovered a bottle wrapped in paper in the toe of a boot; it contained a solution of cyanide of potassium, winch is a deadly poison; it waB a hair" ounce bottle and is about, naif tull;a portiwu or tl wus tvldoutly floured in the tin cup by the prisoner and swal owed by him as he lay on the bod; thero is no doubt that George ts. Twitchell cane to his death by poison administered by himself. Other physicians all concurred with Dr. Shap leigh as to tho cause ot his death. It was stated that Twitchell had contempla? te i for some time the commission of suicide, and this is based upon a letter which it Ls alleg? ed he wrote to an intimate friend, in whioh he is reported as having said: "I cannot and will not die on a scaffold." Las': evening two of his counsel saw him, and from his urging them to call on him in the morning, they believe that Twi'chell must have made up his mind after this interview. Tho matter of suioids was talked of through this city lost night, and as an ev dence of its probability a well-known gentleman states that about eleven o'clock he was informed that Twitchell would oe found dead this morning, and in so positive a man? ner was this assertion made that he was induc? ed to believe it. TWITCHELL'S oaiME. In the month or November of last year, Mrs. Hill, an old lady of sixty-five; Mr. George 8. Twitchell, a young man of twenty-eight years of age, and her daughter, Mrs. George 8. Twitchell, aged about thirty-five, occupied a fine house at the corner of Tenth and Pine streets, Philadelphia. They had in their em? ploy a servant girl named Sarah Campbell, who, on the ? ? ter noon of the 22d of November, went out, as was her habit on Sunday after? noon, to spend the time until evening with her friends. Kelurning home at half-past nine in the evening, she rang the bell, but no one came to open the door. Again she rang, and again, seven or eight times at intervals, and knocked loudly until at length George S. Twitchell opened the door for her, a very un? usual thing for him, as Mis. Hill hod been io the habit of staving up to let ?arahin. Mr. and Mrs. Twitchell .Yere in the habit of retir? ing early. On opening the door that night, Twitchell, after remarking that it was cold said,- "I wonder where mother can be?" to whioh the girl repliod that she did not know. He then went up stairs and Sarah Campbell proceeded into the kitchen and lighted a can? dle. Seeing the kitchen door open she went tc abut it, when she was horrified at beholding the body of Mrs. Hill lying upon the pave meut. The alarm was at once given ant Twitchell came down stairs, as after a time hu wife also. On seeing the body Twitchell ex claimed, "My God 1 what is this ? will som< one assist me In carrying her in ?" I ii o bod; was brought in and the neighborhood aroused A policeman named Howard was the first U, arrive upon the scone, and soon afterwards t Dumber of the neighbors. Twitchell was wash inn- fae head of Mrs. HUI when these people ar rived. I he spectacle presented by the body o the murdered woman -for she had evident!; been murdered-was ghastly. Thirteen deej wounds were found upon the tace sud head Mrs; Twitchell, on being asked by one ofthi neighbors, a Mrs Morrell, what bad happen* to Mrs. Hill, said, "She fell ont of the window/ An examination of the premises was made when a scene of sickening horror was f J und ii tho dining room up stairs, from the window o which Mrs. Hill was alleged to have fallen, J sofa and pillow stained with thick blood, i pool of gore upon the. floor, spots of blocM upon the larpots and sprinkled over the walls and tho window sash'and sill also smearei over with blood, while in a corner of tb room a poker covered with blood and havim gray bair sticking to it waa found. Mr. an? Mrs. Twitchell were charged with the murdo and placed under arres . 'l'hoir trial came ol in December and excited intense interest no only m Philadelphia, but over the whole couo try? The prisoners demanded to be trie* separately, sud George S. Twitchell was fire placed ou tho stand. The evidence adunca against him is still fresh in the public m mci Suffico tt, thoieforo, to say that it was shorn that when ho went np stairs to put on a vet and linen shirt, whioh he bad not on when h carried in and washed tho body, it was foun by the officer who accompanied him to th room that tho vest and shirt were stained wit blood, and Twit mell failed to anconnc for thea stains. The theory, that Mrs. Hill waa murdei ed by part?a? who had entered the house fe the purpose of robbery was utterly demolisher: In fino, the testimony against George ?. Twitol ell was overwhelming, and be was found guilt and sentenced to be hang. Mn. Osmil] Twitchell, his wife, was acquitted. KxecntAon of Eaton. From the Philadelphia Press we extract th following particulars of the execution of G? ral Eaton, hung in Philadelphia on Thursday fe the murder of Timothy Hceuan on the 11th < June last : ; Between six and seven o'clock (morning) th Rev. Fathers 0 Bailly and Barry an i ved at th prison, entered tho cell and celebrated a mai br the cande tuned, after whioh the holy con mullion was administered. The primate, a Eaton's request, erected an altar in tho cell Provious to celebrating mass. Upon being asked by Fathor O'Reilly about tho murdor, he said he bad nothing to say, and that ho never fired tho pistol. About nevon o'clock Keepers Cassidy and Peterson oponed tho cell door and entered with the last breakfast which Eaton was to eat. lt consisted of a couple of boiled eggs, bread and butter and a bowl of coffee. Upon being asked how he felt, he said, "I feel like eating a hearty breakfast," and this state men1, waa fully verified by his dovouring all which was set before him. SOUL-IIABKO WING SPECTACLE. A very affecting scene occurred at eight o'olook, when his poor wife, bis adopted daughter, Iiis brother-in-law, and sister-in-law visited him tor tho last time. The interview did not last long, but all of his relatives dung to him in a frantic manner, and sobbed bitter? ly. Eaton remarked to his wife that she should not try to unnerve him, but rather en? deavor to cheer him up, so that he mitrht be enabled to meet his doom as became an inno? cent man and a Christian. Two of his counsel, Charles W. Brooke and John V. McDonougb, George H. Smith, Joshua C. Taggart, and Johu Nolan visited bim. Ho spoke in tho highest terms of his counsel, especially Mr. Brooke, and thanked all his friends for tho way in which thoy had striven to help bim. He then bade the three latter gentleman an affectionate, farewell, and they left tho cell deeply deplor? ing Eaton's position. THE EXECUTION DELAYED. Eaton's spiritual advisors were in his coll alone all the morning, and did not leave him until tho fatal moment arrived. The execution was long delayed so as to afford the doomed man every possiblo chance of getting a re? prieve. About cloven o'olock wo looked in his cell and he was smoking a cigar. He shook hands with us in a cheerful manner, and did not evince the slightest emotion. 8U8P3N8E. During the morning each person inside tho prison was going about in a dreadful state of suspense, at ono time walking down tho prison yaru and looking at the instrument of death, and then passing along the inside corridor ana gazing at Eaters cell, but all the timo express? ing great sjwpathy for tho condemned, and hoping tbaxthe. reprieve would arrive by noon. Every time tho bell at the prison gate rang there was a general rush to the door, oaoh faco bea i ling with the hope that tho ringer was a messenger of "glad tidings" to the dying man; but at last a gentleman arrived wno informed Mr. Brooke that it was now use? less to hope for a reprieve. Mr. Brooke imme? diately repaired to Eaton's coll and informed him bow matt rs stood, and the impossibility of a respite arriving from Harrisburg. During all this time Mr. Brooke was in a fearful state of excitement; his face was death? ly pale, and he was continually conversing with the sheriff, with a view, we supposed, of getting the time of tho execution postponed as fate as was possible. 4, CALL OF TEDS BOLL. Precisely at half-past twelve Shuriff Lylo sailed the jury into the keeper's office and re . guested his principal deputy, Mr. Smith, to read the death warrant. Ail the jurors ans? wering to their names, the reading of the leath warrant was proceeded with. Un EAD SUMMONS. The sheriff then announced the order in which tbe parties present were to prooeed to ihe scaffold. Qeoeral Lyle, at twenty-five ninutes to one o'olock, went to the cell of liat?n and informed him that the time had u ri ved when he was to meet his fate. Eaton replied : "It is an unpleasant duty you have ;o perform, but you must do your duty." F?l'JM THE CELL TO THE SCAFFOLD. Tho cell was then loft behind, and at twenty ninnies to one the condemned man reached the door of the keeper's office, from whiob Dlace the procession started on the fatal jour? ney. The sun, which bad been shining al the morning, was enveloped in a dark cloud, which remained until the execution was over Directly the procession emerged from th? prison. That quiet walk to death, along th? 3 jmdor running from east to west at tho norti and of the prison, was a very solemn and ai impieasive one. Eaton walked firmly, anc lid not exhibit any emotion. His fuco was un? naturally "pale, which was the result of his lon? sonflnement. He kept kissing the crucifix ii tus hands, and repeating tho responses aftei his confessors during the whole of that walk and no sound was heard save the thud of the walking multitude. At the end, and a little b the south of the passage, was tho gallows upoi which Spring, Winnemore, Probst, and other suffered the extreme penalty of the law foi their bloody crimes. Father Barry asconde? the stops, followed by Eaton, who walked in firm manner. Father O'Reilly, the sheriff, an? the carpenter who was employed to erect th gallows. Eaton stood in the centre of the plank his confessors on either side, Sheriff Lyle a the top of the steps, and the carpenter behinc Baton's black hair was carefully arranged, bu the wind blew it from one side of hie head t the other. He was dressed in a black olot sack coat, double-breasted velvet vest, snuf colored trowsers, top boots, white .shirt an collar, and a black necktie. His white pocke handkerchief was hanging half ont of his coa pocket. SOLEMN 8EBVIOJB. A special service for the burial of the deac according to the rites of the Catholic Churo I: was then performed, the culprit repeating aft? the priests. He then knelt down, raised hi Byes to heaven, occasionally kissing the crue ax, and repeated the Lord's Prayer, and nSad other atonements. He then rose to his tee repeated other ho.y passages, kissed the ort cifix for tho last tame ina loud and carnet manner, shook bands warrolv with both of h spiritual attendants, and bade them fare wt in a very touching manner, after wbioh tb? left the scaffold. Sheriff Lyle then stepp? forward with Merci!, the carpenter. The to mer put out his hand to Eaton, who look? straight into his face and smiled. The sheriff inquired if he wished to say an; thing before dying, whereupon he profeste bis innocence again and again, and said, as 1 ttoped to meet his Maker, ne never fired a sh? on that fatal night. . THE LABT MOMENTS. Morell then handcuffed Eaton, stood hehir: bim, and placed the noose around his nee Baton moved his head, apparently horrific whoa the rope first touched him. For son reason the rope was taken off, and the kn axed just under the left ear. . Eoton turu? his face upward, and then dosed his eyes fo aver. The sheriff then drew from his pock the white oap, placed it over the head Baton, aud'hen descended from tho sea fib 1 Morell followed, the rope waa brought aero the yard, the end being dropped into a cell alose by, and at ten minutes to one o'olock tl unfortunate man was hung. After he dropp he did not struggle once, indicating that 1 lied an easy death. For some time there wi a contraction of the body, which was only mu miar. Eaton died, aa was anticipated, in tl most hcroio manner, not exhibiting any fes bat at the sam? time, unlike most of the cr it Inala, he faced bis God without displaying ai u.-seemly bravado. Just before the Dolt Wi 3rawn, one of the observers drew back fro the scaffold, exolaimtng, "Thia is horrib butchery !" In twenty minutes Messrs. Smith ai Butcher, the physicians attached to tne prise pronounced that the heart and pulse had oca id to beat, and that Ute was extinct. After t ooiiy had been hanging thirty-one minutes, iras cut down, the time hoing precisely twenl me minutes past one o'clock. Mot ell procur ? ladder, placed it against the scaffold, unti the rope, and tbe body was tenderly lowered I truck and taken on its return journey alo: the same corridor into the prison. The fa ind neck of the body were examined by t surgeons and the jury. A discoloration und the left ear, where the knot was placed, w risible, and the face was also discolored. A BUBE, In compliance with a request from Eato relatives no post-mortem examination v made, and his body was handed over to ] friends, who started, as they said, to oonve\ io an undertaker's. Instead of conveying i tody to an undertaker it was driven rapidly t college in South Ninth-street, and an at ton was mudo at resuscitation. The galvan io b tory was applied, to the horror of the fr?en >f deceased, and mustard was used, bes rolling. Mo knife was allowed to be used the frier,cU, and after two hours' manipulais >f tbs body, it was consigned to the iegitimi ma tedian of inanimate bodies, the under tak Thc fanerai Will take plane, it is said, on 8 lrdsynext. _ . _ ptIARLKHTOM AAAlCOLTVUlj WAREHOUSE AND BRED STO?E.
