O'Conor pitting boside the young criminai, Watiworth presionted the domoanor which clinr- nctorized him throughout tho trinl, apparontly wholly {usousiblo of tho position whiok ho oc- cuples in the entimation of tho great Lody of tho poouplo. ilo loard unmovod his son- tonco to tho Btato Prison for lifo, and at the closo rotired from tho oourt- room, seaompaniod by bis mothor and tho Bhor- T oficorn, Mr. O'Conor ia paid to Lo Ve on- deavoring to indueo the Bheriff to allow Wal- worth to remain in tho Lombs, in tho hopo that a pardon from tho Uoyernor may #ave bim from the State Privon. Judgo Davis, beforapasaing sontonco, sald that tho ovidenco, in his opinion, justificd the ver- dict, and lio was not suro but it would have jus- tiflod o vordict of murder in the firet degrao, al- though ho could understand the motives ‘which prompied tho jury to render the verdies whicl they did. 1o thoncontinued: The duty I am to porform Is_rendorod doubly anml by the fact that you bolong to & family honored and diotinguished, Lolh in tho eivil and military ounals of your country. Your grandfother on the ono hand wns, as bas boon truly sald by your counsol, for n lobg timo the Chiof Lquity Judge of this ront g(nln, and ho loft o record for purity and ntogrity, and for all tho privato virtues that udorn and olevate tho man, second to nono who havo attained o hl%h a stntion, aud your grand- fathor on your mother’s sido fell nobly fighting Tor his country on tho fiold of buttlo, and loft a rovord of which ull hia descendants may well bo prowd. It s with griof that I fool bound to ex- Presa my sorrow thint tho momory of thouo great fncastors should not havorostrained yon from tho commission of such a crimo ns that of which you aro convicted. Your poor mother bad indoed causo to regrot her relations to the father you have sluin. You also undoubtedly Lad great causo to feol not aggrioved morely, but ashamed and indignant, at tho lon% courso of outrnges toward hor and his family ; but, bad as 1o wag, you wore not to bo tho avonger of thoso wrongs. Ho had done mothing to forfoit his lifo, oyen to tha lawa of his country, and lenst of all ad he done auything to forfeit his lifo at the Lands of his own and eldost son. When I Took Dack upon that moment, when you con- stituted yourself his executionor and slew him in that room with no omo prosont but your- solvos, 1 cannot but feel that thet death must have boen to bim moro horrible thon o thousand deaths in any other form. Called by you to your presenee apparently for tho pu Tul interviow to settlo family difilcultios ; invited t0 a cent i your room, and apprently almost in- stantly confronted with a weapon of ‘death inhis own son's hands. What thoughts must have rushed on him at that moment, when hoe found that the porson whom ho expected had como to him for 3:0 purpose of & peacoful arrangoment, had como to kill him. What thoughts—what forrible thoughte—must havo rushed upon him whon he reccived the leadon mossonger of doath in bia bosom, from tho hands of his eldest boy. I shudder whion I think of it, and think you ought to dovoto your whole lifo to o ropentance as God only can accopt for so torriblo s deod. ‘Walworth, on his way to the 'fomba after nen- tonco, Auid: “I nm glad I did not havo to en- durotholong lecturo { bad anticipated Judgo Davis would inflict upon me.
