The criminal has been attended for a week or two past by the Rev. Stanislaus Parezysky, a Polish priest, special- ly deputed by the Bishop to assist the Rev. Celestin Wil- lem, who has bestowed much of his time and services upon the spiritual welfare of the prisoner since the exe- cution of Matthias. During Thursday, and the following night, the prisoner was calm and composed, taking his usual sleep. He eat but little. but indulged much in smoking. The priests were with the prisoner from easly in the morpipg until he left the cell for the gallows, What dis- closures were made are of course unknown, the canons of the church forbidding the priest disclosing the seorets of the confersional. About balf past cleven o'clock, the Sheriff, accompanied by Marshal Keyser, Mesars. Fletcher & Crowell, two of the prison inspectors, and Henri Roniestze, acting as in- terpreter, entered the condemned oell. ‘The prisoner received them cordially, and his face be- came flushed, his manner indicating for the moment an expectation that they had come to inform him of another respite, or 9 pardon from the Governor. This hope was suddenly extinguished on the cord being produced with which to pinion his arms. A pallor spread over his face, followed by a trembling and a cold sweat, and he was 50 ovetcome that he rat down upon a chair while the Sheriff and his asistants tied the arms of the unhappy man be ind him, Everything being now prepared, the condemned man, accompanied by his spiritual advisers, left the cell and walked down the stairway to the Lower floor. The offlcials, and others, who, either from duty or chance, were pre: sent, had been previously formed in procession, and. on the appearance of the prisoner and his attendants, they commenced thelr sad march in the following order:—Mr. Freed, the superintendent of the the prisoner, supported by the priests, Sherlif d his deputies. Immediately in the rear of the prisoner walked the ox ecutioner, a man dieguised ina suit of prison clothing and a hideous mask, which effectually concealed him from reognition: ‘The members of the Sheriff's Jury followed the Sherif. The police board came next, with the reporters of the pres. and the speciel deputies cf the Sheriff brought up the rear On nearing the gallows, which was ereoted in the rear of the southern wing of the prison buildings, the solom- nity of the scene was inoreased by those in the prose:sion uncovering, a8 the priests muriaured the prayers suited to the occasion ‘The prieoner mounted the steps to the platform with- out faltering He was accompanied by Sheriff Allen, Marchal Keyser, the Rey. Messrs. Celestin Willem and Stanislaus Yererysky, and Henry Ronlestzo, the trans- ator. ‘The priesta dispensed with the services usual upon the gallows, having gone through with them prior to leaving the cell. ‘The pricets then spoke to the prisoner in his native tongue, saying, “Here you stand, between heaven and hell; if you have any declaration to make, suy it now. Itcan do you neither harm nor good ? He krolt down ard exclaimed, “I die innocent. I am prepared to die. I beg all present to forgive me; and, whether they have judged me right or wrong, I forgive them” Bir, Roniestze then interrogated Skupinski as follows:— “Did you participate in the murder 7” The enswer, “no,” was returne: Hix questioner then asked, “Did you not know that Matthias, with Rutkowski intended to kill the boy?” Bkupinski hesitated. and on the question being repext- ed. be enid, “I have nothing here to say—I am rezonclivd to my God'and prepared to die” ‘ ‘The condemned then desired that Mr. Freed should bo called upon the platform; and parted with him affection ately, returning thanks for kindnesees bestowed. The exeoutioner then moun‘ed the platform and adjusted the rope about the neck of the condemned man, Pefore leaving bim the priests en the unhappy man a rosary placed a crucifix inthe breast of his coat, and tprinkled him with holy water from a bottle ‘The cap having been placed over his face. he told Mr. Roniestze to return thanks to Mr. Fleteher for the many obligations covferred upon him ‘very pervon having left the scaffold. the props were re- moved, avd at thirteen minutes of noon the drop fell aud the victim bung suspended between heaven and earth, » solemn #pestacie, The rope did not give a fall suMotent to break his meok, and for the firet two or three minutes his struggles were diendful to behold At one time the poor wretch raised one band on a level with his head, two finzers being raisod winting to heaven.

The morality of all his pietures was, “Tont- my was ® naughty boy, and his master dogged bia; Jacky was good boy, and was rewarded with plum cake.” The lecturer descanted wittily on the principal features in Hogarth’s celebrated serial pictures of “The Rake’s Progress.” “Marriage «1a mode,” and “The Lon- don Apprentices, or Indwtry and Idieness,’” To the | student of history, he said, these admirable works must be invaluable, as they give the most complete and trath fut picture of the manners and men of the past costury, We look at them, and we sce pase before us the England of a hundred years ago; and we are sure of the truth of the portrait. What manner of man was he who executed these portraits—so varied, so falthfal so admirable? In the London National Gallery, sou of us, no doubt, have seen the best and most earefully finish ed series of his comic paintings, and the por trait of his own honest face, from which the bright blue eyes shine ont and give us om idea of tha keen and brave look with which Wm Hogarth regarded the world. Noman was ever less of ahero, You sve him before you, and can fancy what he was—a jovial, hones: London citizen, stout and sterling, loving his laugh, his friends, his glass, his roast beef of Old Kngiand, and having w bare scorn of French Monsieuss and frogs foreign murio, foreign singing, and above all, of foreign ainters, whom he held in most amusing contempt. Porterity, however, has not quite confirmed honest Will's opinion abc ut his own talents for the sublime; and though Swift could not cee the difference ‘twixt ‘tweediedum and tweediedes, the world saw aud discovered the diifer- ence, and gave a hearty applause and adwiration to Hogarth too, but net exactly as a painter of serip- tural subjects, or as the rival of Uorregio. I have no doubt tha; Smollett’s pictures are pretty much as faithful a6 any from the pencil of that other hu morist, Hogarth. He was like ome of those seotsh cadets, whom, with such naturel fidelity, the great Bectch novelist painted so charmingly; of gentle birth and nerrow means, going out from bis northern home to fight bis wey through the world armed with his courage and bis keen wit, Smuollett's novels are recollections of bis own adventures; his characters are drawn feom per- fons with whom he was acquainted in his career of life. Strange companions be must have had; queer acquaiat- ences he must have made in the Glasgow college, ia the country apothecary’s shop, in the gun room of thy man of-war, and in the hard life on shore, Smoliett did not invent much but he had the keenest perceptive fasuity, and described what he saw with a wonderful relish and delightful broad humor, The novel of Humphrey Clinker is the most laughable story ever written since the art of novel writing began. Fielding too, has described the cha racters and eceues whieh he knew and saw. He had more than ordinary opportunities for being aequainted with life; his family and education first, his fortunes and micfortunes afterwards, brought him into the society of every rank and ecndition of men He is himself the hero of his works; he is the wild Tom Jones. and he is the wild Captain Booth When Fielding first came upon town, in 1727, the reecllections of the great wits were still freth in the memories of the frequenters of the taverns ard coffee houses. and yet the judges declared that young Harry Fielajng had more spirit and wit than Con greve, or any of his successors, His wit and manners mede him friends everywhere; he was courted by peers, and men of ,wealth und fashion; he liked good) wine, ocd clothes, and good comforting, and he began to run nto debt, and borrowed money wherever he could got it; he wasin no way particular in accepting a few pieces from the purses of his rich friends, and bore down upon them fora guinea or adinner. To gvin the Lut! began to write theatrical pieces, but he bestowad le on those than on his novels, whish building ra strong and lofty, with admirable proportions, master- Pieces of genius, and monuments of workmanlike skill. I cannot offer 8 bope to make a hero of Harry Fielding Why hide his faults? why ooncesl his weaknessin a cloud of periphrases? why not show him as he is? With claret stains upon his laced coat, and upow his face the marks of good fellowship, of illwess, of kindness, of care, he stander, as you ree. a careworn man, but ho still retains tome of (he most splendid human qualities, He has an admirabie love of truth, the bitte: antipathy to bypocrixy. and the keenest wit in laughing it to scorn; his wit flashes upom the rogue, aud lightess upon the racsl like a policeman’s lantern, In the midet of oll bis imperfections, he reapeats fewole innocence and @infantine — tenderness; phe could not be ro brave, 8 generous, so truth telling as he was and pot be infinitely merotful, pitiful and tender. He would giv not hel t apy man bis puree avd eould bis kondner- em profusion; be mighv have low fut not an immoral mind; he admires with all his irtuous men; he stoops te mo flattery; he dis sive all disloyal acts, and does his public duty uprightly; he is fondly loved by bis family. aud be dies at hix work, Fielding. with bia noble epizit, unconquerable generosity, reminds one of thore brave men of whom one reads in stories of Epglich abipwreoks and cicasters—of the officer on the Afrieau shore, who, when diseare has destroyed his crew. and he bimwselt is attacked by fever. yet tarows the lead, takes the sourdings, oarties the ship from the river or low coast. and dies in the gallant enteavor, Such a brave and gentle heart, such an intrepid, eourage- ous spirit I love to recognise in the maniy, the Kaglish Hsrry Fielding, Presidential Vote of Loulalana, OFFICIAL. —1892— ——1848-— Scott.

The committee's term of office ends this month, and the call of the meeting was to provide or their successors and make the necessary arrange- ments for the primary elections. The no#nal hour, a» weual was half past seven o'clock.

On the former occasion, @ call was intro- duced and carried, which however, was rescinded by the mojority of the committee, on the 5th of August, ratified hy the Syracuse comvention, and by result of the primary eltctions, and by the recent elections in November, when the county ticket was carried in spite of the insidious op. position of the minority of the committee, some of whore members had done their beat to defeat it, though the leader of that faction, John Van Buren, had declared, at the ratification meeting at Tammany Hall, that t ty ticket was the very best seleoted for fifteen yer Mr, Joun A.

Mr. L.

Mr. Sexes taunted Mr. Shepard, Mr. Kennedy, and their friends, with inconsistency, as last summer they took away the appointment of inspectors from the Ward committees, and gave it to the members of the Genersl Committee of each ward. The cail ef the Sth of August gave it tothe Genoral Committes in a body. In principle, both plans were the same, and were entirely different from what was now proposed The plan of the 6th of August was approved of by the Nomi- nating Conventions in Tammany Hall, and by the result of the Late clections. The matter had been brought for- ward in the Byrueure Convention by Jobn Van Buren, Mr. Cogklan, sad Mr. Shepard, and the course cf the minority was deotfed ngsinst. und that of the majority approved by @ convention, the majority of which con- tinted of sofe shells, as was evident by the fact of their nominating Seymour for Governor, and the (aot that they were the men who acted under the control of John Van Buren and Marcy at the Baltimore Sonvention The Syra- cuse Convention was the highest authority on the sub- ject and decided the matter. ‘The elections in November under this policy were the greatest triumphs ever ob- tained, and that without giving largesses to the Empire Club, or truckling to the Van Imren faction. They bad been charged with fraud. But how had they acted in reference to the couaty ticket’? Thay gave the office of Sheriff to the poorest man on the ticket, « man who had nothingto pay. In the preceding year the nomination was given to one of the richert men in the city, But the General Committee had set their fice against using money in elections, and hence the opposition they b: met trom men who had been formerly paid for their servi- ces. ‘The discussion here became very animated and heated, partioulariy between Mesers.

A motion was then made by Mr. Vosnvnan, of the Sixteenth ward, to strike out the inepectors naumwd Mr Sickles for the Sixteenth ward and substituting others in their stead; also, changing the place of moet- ing for the primary election in that ward This was a test vote, and was carried by the hunkers. the amendment being lost by twenty nine voting against it and twenty four in its favor. The bunkers now fos that they bad matters all their own way, considering that four of their number were absent from this vote, namely: — Messrs.
