Pie peoreeen UTION IN CALIFORNIA. EXE nt doa ly f Thomas Byrnes for the Murder of Charles T. Hil. Full Account of she Crime and the Cir- cmastances Attending It. ) MURDERER'S SPEECH ON THE SCARFOLD. de. Xo. On September 1, at the county jailof San Francisco county, California, Thomas Byrnes suffered the penalty ‘of death forthe murder of Charles T, Hill, Probably the criminal history of California does not furnish another such case of cold-blooded murder. Jt was deliberatety planned and executed with a horrible system of detail whicb could only have been carried out by one whose nature was hardened, and whe was more fend than hunan. ‘The er.me of murder, unfortunately, has been too frequently committed in that State—often in quarreis where both parties were at fanit, frequently in the heat ‘of passion, to avenge areal or fancied injury, and for various motives and reasons which, if they cannot be urged in justification, will at least create syrhpathy and pity for the unfortunate being who suffers death as a penulty for giving full sway to his eyil passions, But it $s seldom that a deliberate murder is so carefully planned ‘and systematically executed where the only motive to the crime i¢ the robbing of the corpse of the victim. Such was (ho case of Thomas Byrnes, DISCOVERY OF THE MURDER, Ov the 14th of March, 1865, a newspaper carrier living beyond Hayes” Park, tp Sans Souci Valley, was going home at night, when he noticed something white in his paibway, and, on stooping to examine it, the clear moon- Ihght revealed to his gaze the ghastly features of a corpse. Horror stricken at the sight, he ran swiftly bome, He communicated his adventure to bis wife, but did nothing More unt! the next morning, when the case was laid Defore the Coroner, and the corpse was brought to the ead pouse. it was clad in garments of fashionable cut and fine texture, with patent leather boots of the iat styl, and bore the appearance of a young gentleman of meavs. Around the body and under the arms was tied ® leaiher strap, to the end of which was attached a pleco of rope, The feet were wed together with another rope. The coat wag torn in sbreds, as if the body had been dragged r whe yough road and through the bushes, and the skull was broken by so heavy a blow that the fracture extended pearly round the bead. The news of the anurder flew swiftly through the town, and hundreds of jpeople visited the dead house for the ‘purpose of identi- ying, “f posable, the corpse or its clothing. In te vest pocket were found two pawn tickets, one of which called for a silver cup inscribed “Margaret to Blanche,” wh bad been pledged by a Mr. Hill, and which jed to identification Of the body. 1t was ascertained that went to California with & woman known as Blanche A) ander, and the inscription on the goblet, coupled with the name in the pawn ticket, caused mquiries to be set ‘on foot respecting Charles T. Hill, It was goon ascer- ‘ined from the Woman Blanche that Hill had acing roomed at the Mansion House, San Francisco. Upon call ng at (he Mansion House it was ascertained that Hill had Jott there some weeks oefore, leaving bis tank and cloth. Ing, #ince Which time nothing had been heard of him. ‘The morning after his disappearance, the landlady slated, a tai young man, with curly hair and a jon; out on his face, extending from his eye to his chin, ba called at the house, with Hul’s keys, and had dressed himsel! in some of Hill’s clothes, leaving bis own, which were bloody, in the room. subsequently be called again, stating tat’ be had been sent there by Hill, and de" Quanded Hill's trunk, which was refused him. Her excription of the man answered precisely to that of Thomas Lyrnes, and the detectives were at once satisfied ‘that he kuew something of Hill’s whereabouts. Byrnes Was then in the county Jail, awaiting his trial in the County Court for grand jarceuy for stealing a wateh and ‘chain from a hotel in First street, He was immediately taken from jail aud brought to the police office, where hho was closely questioned concerning his knowledge of Hill, He stated that he Jast saw Hill on the nignt of the 18th of February, when they went to ride to- — Jo returning from the Cliff House the horses me unmanageable and ran away, breaking the Ruggy, dragging him a considerable distance, by which sccident be received the wound in his foce, whie Hil sprained bis ankle badly; that he (Byrnes) returned to town with the horses, leaving Hill charge of the broken buggy, and returned with an- ‘@ther team and ged the broken vehiclejback to town, Moat Lili got out of the buggy on the corner of Bush an Dupont streets and went to his room, and he proceeded to the stable, since which time he Lad not seen Hill, but had jetters {rom him at Sacramento. The story which he Meld sealed his doom, The matter was immediately investi- gated and the following facts elicited:—Byrnes and Hil procured a team at Wright & Roden’s stable, on Kearny Breet, on the night of 18th of Fevruary, for the pur- pose of riding to the Cli! House. Hill stated that Byrnes ‘wus going to lake him to see some girls, while Byrnes teuded that he wanted to see some men at the Cliff jouse op business. They were given a pair of horses called the *'Pouy team.’’ Before = @ leather hitchi strap was placed in the bugey by the hoster, an BDyrves cautiously placed iu the vehicle a heavy monkey wrench, such as is used vy teamsters for unscrewing the wheels of heavy wagons und trucks. In answer Ww the hostier's inquiry as to his object in taking it, he stated ‘that it would be “uandy to have in case of an accident.” ‘The night was dark and stormy, black clouds were, drift- ‘Ing across the skies, and a light rain was falling as they Biarted out on their ride. They wentto the Chiff House, ‘where Hill alighted from the buggy and took a drink, bat Byrnes remained in the vehicle. They stopped only a moment aud then started to return, and on the return trip the murder was cotnmitted. About midnight the stable keoper was aroused by some one knocking at the stable door, ang upog answering the call le found Syiiiés moun! oh°Bus of the horse. tut ig suier standing near. He stated that the horses Awhy and broken the buggy, and that he wanted avother team te return for it, Another was harnessed for bi and when ready to start the hostler prepar. to accompany him and render assistance; but to this Prevosition Byrnes strenuously objected He requested hostier to puta lot of bay rope im the buggy, and ‘when about starting asked for a shovel, for the purpose of digging out the vehicle, which he said bad mirea in the rand. An old dirty shovel was given him and be left. He returned with the broken buggy about daylight fend left the stable. It ts unmecessary W record in detail She various acts of Byrnes after this Wine. The watch Delouging to Hill he endeavored to dispose of at a res- tanraut on Kearny street, but finally pledged it at a pawabroker’s. He took Hill's overcoat, which was covered with blood, to a clothes cleaner, and a pasie pin (en imitation of a diamond)—the object which ex- Pp & €ited bis cupidity aud to possess whieh he had steeped his bands in buman blood—he endeavored to dispose of et various places, under the belief that it was a valu. able diamond; but his efforts were unsuccessful, and the pin, sleeve buttons, shirt etude and other articies belonging to Hill were in his possession when be war arrested. Probably no case so completely involved in mystery was ever a# rapidly and succesefully unravelied and *“ worked up’ —to use a police phrase—as the case of Byrues. Tho police, under the direction of detectives Jes and Fliis—to whom is due the credit of bringing the murderor to justice—were untiring in their persist- ent efforts. But intricate as the testimony was, and @ompiicated ag was the material, the different links in the great chain of evidence developed themselves with a Tapidity eo startling as almost to bewilder the detectives themseives; and in forty-eight hours after the body of Till had been found one of the most complete cases of etrcumstantial evidence in the history of crime had been macde out agatnst Thomas Byrnes. An mquest was held, and a verdict was rendere: Gages = with the murder. He was examined in the police court, and beld to answer to the chrage. The Grand Jarg indicted Dum, and be was tried in the Twelfth District Court. JME TRIAL “OP THE MURDERER, ‘The facts avove related and others equally as impor fant were proved othe trial.

BVPYORTS 1p NYRNES’ BEHALP, Tyres was ably defended by E. D. Bambloton, but to no purpose. A raotion for a new trial was carried to the Suprote Oourt on appeal, and strong efforts were made to induce the Governor lo grant a commutation of the sentence to iinyprisonment for hfe. Governor Low, after reviewing the testimony, said that he could see nothing im the tacts which would warrant Executive in- Lerposition, and that the questions of law were left with the Supreme Court, That tribunal sustained the rulings of the lower Court and denied the motion for a new trial, and Byrces was accordingly sentenced to be hanged, Hig friends and those of his family, as well aa many citizens who are opposed to capital punishment, were untiring ia their exertions im his bebalf up to the hour of his death ; but the Guvernor, although listening kindly to their ap- peals, from asense of duty denied them the commuta- on asked. WIRNES’ DEMRANOR. From the tiie of his arrest until the sentence of death was passed upon him, Byrnes assumed an air of bravado and bragyadocio which did not gain him the sympathy that he might have obtained by a different demeanor. Doring the trial his face constantly wore an ugly scowl, which was directed at the witnesses for the prosecution in a threatening and defant manner. His conduct in jail was in keeping with his general style, until the sentence of death was passed upon him. Then, for the first tim he betrayed emotion; tears gathered in his eyes, ans his arms trembled like an aspen, After that he gave himself up entirely to his spiritual advisers. PRPARATIONS FOR DEATH, Ever since he was sentenced Byrnes, has been almost constantly attended by the Catholic clergy and Sisters of Mercy. The day preceding his execution, his mother and brother visited him in his cell, and remained with him most of the day. In the afternoon a young lady friend called upon him and had an interview of about an hour, in company with two Sisters of Mercy. He slept portion of his last night on earth, and in the morning partook of alight breakfast, His demeanor all the time was quiet and calm, without the slightest symptoms of fear or nervousness, Fathers Gallagher, Arden and Gibney were with bim constantly until he was taken from his cell to the gallows, ‘THE KXECUTION. As early as noon those holding invitations to witness the execution began to arrive, and before one o'clock all wore present that could be accommodated, The county jail 35 a small, but admirably Rie building of two stories, and has a row of cells on either side, with a pas- rage of about twelve feet between them, upon which the doors open; the cells of the second story have a corridor about two feet wide, and it was at the end of this corri- dor tuat the gallows was erected, which consisted of a platform with a trap in the centre, the beam overhead being passed through two windows, or ventilators, above the upper row of celia. The entire passage 1s well lighted by skylights overhead, and the whole building is k- pt in the most beautiful order. By half-past twelve the west- era s.de of the corridor was lied, the other side being kept clear for the passage of the condemned and his escort. At one o'clock the prisoner, supported by several priests of the Roman Catholic church and attended by the Sheriff aod bis aeputies, issued from cell No. 9. on the lower floor, and passed out the main entrance and up the stairs leading 10 the corridor, along which the pro- cession moved to the other end of the building. The prisoner was dressed ina black frock coat, vest and pants, and his bair was carefully brushed, inde»d, he looked more as if about to issue forth fora walk upon the treet, than one attired for his execution. His step was firm, he never faltered for a moment, even when di- rected to take his place upon the trap, and it was evident that he bad screwed hie courage up to bear the terrible ordeal ina manly manner. His face o1 which was deathly pale, ghastly even, spoke the fearful strugele of tbe moment, and told of his mental suffering. ‘As soon as be was placed in poeition, the death war- rant was read by the Beputy Sheriff, the condemued all the time appearing as if engaged in silent prayer, hold- ing a crucifix in bis hands, When the reading was over, he drew forth from his pocket an address, of which the following is a copy, and read it in a loud, distinct voice, with scarcely any hesitation whatever :— HIS SPEECH ON THE SCAFFOLD. My Frrexps—In a position as awful as mine, with death staring me in the face, about to enter a world that Knows no end, and to bid a last adieu to time, it would il become me to in useless talk the few mo- ments that remain to me. 1 wish merely to thank my for the kindly interest they have taken in my behalf. From first to last, before my trial as well as since the final sentence of the law was |, I have ex- perienced much kindness. May such kindness be re- warded! To my good father and mother, sisters and brother, for the moral and religious training, which in my childhood days they endeavored by word and example to impress upon my tender mind, and for the fond attachment wi which they clung t me in misfortune as in prosperity; to Judge Pratt, for his ever anxious and tender sym- pathy; to my lawyers, for their earnest exertion in m: defence; to my keepers, for the lenient indulgence wit! which they always treated me; to the good Sisters, whose frequent visiis brought such coneolation into my lonely prison cell, and whose heavenly converse was the means of whiling away many @ hour; to bad spiritual advisers, who ever sought paternal solici- tude soul's salvation ; to all, my external gratitude is due. "Oa the merits of tiene T shall not dwell. The entence of the judge has that beyond appeal. In the very sincerity of my heart I forgive my enemies. T wish to die at peace with men and hope to find mercy Ina few moments I shall stand before His dread tribunal to receive a sentence, awful because eternal. May it be eternal bliss. And you, my friends, of your charity, for me that my Redeemer may are my iniquities, but may have mercy upon my soul, At the conclusion the document was handed to the Sheriff, and as he did 80, he remarked to that official: “Pll pray for you in Heaven.”” then secured with strong leather straps, che noes was: adjusted about his neck, but being rather tight, he turned to the Deputy Sheriff, with a scowl, and requested it to be eased, which was done. The black cap was then drawn over bis face, and at the same time the prayers for the departing spirit were read by the attending priests. At thirteen —- one the trap w: sprang, and with a dali thud, the body of Thomas Byrnes hung led from the beam overhead. Not a motion of any Kind, not a spasmodic action of the muscle, even, was visible; he fell fully twelve fect, and his death must have been instantaneous, After hanging about twenty minutes, the attending surgeons pronounced him d The was then cut down and removed to the jail yard, and after another inspection, it was handed to his friends for interment, POLICE INTELLIGENCE. Tere Brormens i Trovme—ILurcatty Boarpixc A Veeset.—Throe brothers, named James, Jobn and Georgo Sweeney, boatmen, were arrested by the Captain of the Harbor Police for illegally boarding the schooner King- fisher, lying in the harbor, and holding communication with the passen; orcrew, The captain charges that that the small ety in which the prisoners reached the vessel was fastened thereto; ‘they are not agents or con-ignees of the schooner, and that they were on contrary to law. Justice Dowling committed the prison- ers for trial. He also states that the majority of the care of this character of late have originated !n Jersey or on Long Island, and yet neither of these Jocal.ties, uader existing cireumstant is called upon to bear its share of the expenses of the ir police. Tre Recext Accipunt ON THE Huson River Rarroap— Auneset OF AN ENGINEER—PO®TPONEMENT OF THE IN- ovest.—The case of Wilkam Bendon, late a flagman in the eroploy of the Hudson River Railroad Company, who was killed on Thursday afternoon, at Forty-cighth street and Eleventh avenue, by being run over by the locomo.

On this occasion he mad bis appearance in a jaunty velvet coat of a ‘claw-ham- mer’’ cut, a8 an offtcer facetiously termed it, His whis- kers were modelled after, as they were identical in color with, those of “Brother Samn.”’ He carried a stout ma- lacca stick, gold mounted, which he was coustanly chang- ing from under bis arm into his hands and there twirling itlively between bis Hugers A coustant smile lit up bis features, and he rapidly shifted from one foot to the otber and made profound ‘ows with an air of excessive politeness and almosi equal embarrassment.

He was very proud of this occasion to meet his Honor and all that sort of thing. He had heard so much about this blasted country that he had just run over here to see the thing, you see. His apartments were at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. By Jove it was astonishing bow many of bis acquaintances a fellow met in this biasted place, so far away, you know, He had been invited to a dinner party the night before and he didn't start to come back till late. When he left he found him- seif—a devilish queer thing, by George—a little muddled. When he was pursuing his way back tw his hotel this fellow— looking ver fiercely at the policeman through his eyextlass—had had the blasted audacity to stop him and lock bim up, by George. He had thought of addressing a letter on the sutject to the British Consul at this port and of complaining of the insult to him as a Britieh eunjoct; but he had no desire, ne assured the Court, to create an international disturbance, ‘*But,”’ the Court interposed, “the officer bad said that Mr. McConnell had been very oblivious.” ‘Ab, did he? By Jove, that was blasted queer. He really trueted the Court would excuse bim, and all that sort of thing. It had been a fault of the head and not of the heart. And, by Georce, when a fella drank such damnable stuff as they called wine in this Dlasted country, it was dead certain to make a fel- low muddled, Mr McConnell was here reminded that he now bad an opportunity to lend the city $10. That individual responded with ‘alacrity, aud as he was about to leave the court sald: —‘I beg your Honor’s pardon. 1 tope you'll excuse me, you know; but, 1 say, they won't get my name in these blasted newspapers, will they?” Aurcen Faise Paerexces,—Yesterday morning Gil- bert 8, Gulien was arraigned at the Jefferson Market Police Court, charged with having obtained goods from the New York Ice Company by means of false pretences, It is alleged that the defendant entered into partnership, in May last, with one Louis G.

Immediately thereafter they mortgaged their stock and placed whatever property they had so that the company were unable to collect their tills, The company then procured warrants for the two, but Gullen only has thus far been arrested.
