THE HANGING OF PHEEBE CAMPBELL.

Moment. •
'AVM the London. Free Press.
The annals- -of -crime afford no record
of fiercer human.passion than was shown
in the butchery of Crearge Campbell, in
the repose of his domestic hearth, in last
July ; and certainly no martyr taince the
iinmolation: of Cranmer has displayed a
more saint -like spirit, than was thanifest-
ed, by his murderess in her latest mo-
ments on this earth. The scene . Of the
fatal night, which she described so mi-
nutely in her written confession, in con-
trast with that of yesterday, exhibits a
marvel of human frailty and human for-
titude. The, murderess that at- midnight
buried, the ,cruel axe in her 'husband's
head, walked to the scaffal.d to expiate
hercriine in an.., ecstacy of repentant
grace,a spirit :of almost divine. charity,
with a mind at perfect peace and a heart
full of brightest hope. lu scorn of
worldly clemency, with unfaltering nerve,
and step as light as that of her bridal,
Plicebe Campbell passed out of the
world. •;
.A1 an earlhour, on Thursday, June
20, people. gathered • from • all parts- of
London, near to the jail, Crowding the
vestibule, and clamoring for admittance,
or selecting positions for observation out
side the walls, On Thames street, west
of the jail, was a long line of Men,
'women and children, eagerly watching
every movement; while. a large willow
tree in the middle of the road. was laden
in every branch -with boys. The scaf-
fold, however, was • so walled up with
beaeds, as to shut the Victim from their
prying eyesi`o4d the act of " taking off"
was done as -privately as circumstanpes
permitted. Some twenty or thirty persons
were adinitted by taild from the Sheriff
and attended during the final prepara-
tions. Every one seemed oppressed with
a sense .of mingled shame and pity. in
the main corridor they conversed in low
tones or paced to and fro casting an oc-
casional look upou the woman whose
condition seemed to lay them under a
spell. A tall, square -shouldered man.
his head and. face covered by a black
mask lounged among them. He was
over six feet ip height; -walked .with an
ambling gait, and seemed to be a very
Common kind of -individual altogether.
Re spoke to no one but glanced quickly,
and sharply about him - with his leaden
gray eyes, which,- appearing through
holes cut in the mask, gave him a ghast-
ly and spectral leek.
• in a large cell -four clergymen sit ab-
sorbed in _meditation: They have .been
unceasing in their ministrations and now
but little remains for them to do. in
an adjoining and smaller Cell, the con
-
derailed. sits Surrounded by, sympathetic
ladies, who are offering last conselations.
Her figure is full, and cheeks ruddy with
health: No dread, no tears, yet no de-.
fianceor seemingpride of resolution.
Her eyes expres-a a state of mind
so happy; and. hopefully exultant
as to realize the most exalted teachings
of th,e saintand the philosopher. Now
and. then a smile comes into her face; ex-
pressing .coafidence and repose, good will7
and resignatien.
There can be no donbt of this woman's
absolute -conversion ; and • although her
written statements, which have been
sent to the Attorney -General, contain
matters irreconcilable- with other testi-
mony, her dying and positive assurance
of their truth cannot well be gainsaid.
All night long she remained up, in
company with the ladies alluded, to, and
preserved a cheerful spirit -throughout.
At an early hour he clergymen came,
and at seven o'clock Rev: G. M. Innes
prayed with her, until overcome With
emotion; when she began, in a clear,
calm, strong Voice, and continued long
and fervently. Her utterances were so
earnest, intelligent and well connected,.
as to cause mneh and agreeable surprise.
She then had. an interview with her
counsel, , Mr. E. Merideth, in course of
which she begged to be forgiven for.
having told him so many falsehoods. tre
asked her what Coyle had said atthe in-
teryievi on Tuesday.. She replied. that
be 'said he would not confess any thing,
that he had nothing to confess, and had.
taken_ no part in the affair whatever.
She implored him to tell all he knew,
bi he steadily and clogebndly refused. •
Shb then said she -hoped he would repent
ef ibis sins and -make nis peade with God.
A few days_ agoshe called in Mr.
Merideth and made -her will, appointing
her fathertuardian of her children; and
Custodian of her property. Old McWain

Temperance C'Onvention.
The Independent Order of uood Tem -

Hill, township of liowick, on Thursday
the 13th. July, inst. Brother P. Hepin- '
-stall, President, and Brother B: S. Cook,
Secretary, pro tem.
The church was beautifully decorated
with evergreens, and the walls bung
with mottoes. Four Temples of the
county were represented 'by delegates,
and, doubtless, many others iwould have
been but for the rain which fell heavily
during most of the day.
Many important matters telating to
the temperance Movement were discuseed
with energy and intelligence, some of
which veere : The political aspect of the
temperance question ; the evils resulting
from the use of so eallei temperance
drunks; the benefit of holding open
Temples often, &c., &c.
It was resolved to take active meas-
ures in relation to the poli,`,ical question,
and committees were a,ptiointed to en-
deavor to elect members of Parliament
for this county, 'who will g' rethen voices -
in faver of prohibition. 1 he use of tem-
perance drinks ,was .lo
against. Good remarks
