Execation=the Prisoner's etaer Expected—Ite Supposed Purport—She Refuses to See Vis- itera New Brosewrce, N. J., Augost 27, 1867, ‘The approaching execution of Bridget Durgan, which Will undoydtedly take place on Friday next, at noon, is creating greater foteress than any other event of the Kind that ever oocurred in this country, The interest centres BO} Upam the woman herself, nor sympathy for her, but arises from a strong and earnest desire to know the whole of the truth of that fearfal night's tragedy on the 25th of February iast, There is, consequently, so mach aniety to know the details of the case that even © simp’@ statement of jt, ne matter how brief, is, for Vario'@s reasons, very desirable, T'go woman has made three very verbose confessions that might be termed dying declarations; buat they are * 41 contradi and’as insinuations are given out by widens Ca rth dying declaration will be gi' prev! to the fatal hour of death, the ions are in the meantime held back, or rather snp- Peaee Her last confession in some respects varies little from the is very reticent. She solemni' deed all alone; that she and words; she struck her, aod. when ordered out of the room, her temper overcam: ber, or, as she says herself, the devil possessed her, and not until she saw her mis- tress lying lifeless, huddled up in ber blood, did she realize the fearful extent of her crime. She exonerates, and has done ail alonc, any complicity on the part of the woman Gilroy in the murder, From information recently obtained, however, it is evident that she bas concealed the truth in all the atate- ments that she has made. The murder was not com- alone, Bor was murder intenaed that such in fact resulted. House robbery was the object; but, on discovery, murder becam: necessity. Bridget had been iv the house some time and knew exactly ite every arrangement. The hus- band of her victim was called from hi and was not likely to return antil far in the mornit The mistress was supposed to have retired to bed, but instead of that she had only thrown herself upow the lounge after putting the child to sleep. All quiet in the house, Bridget admitted her accomplice, and on tiptoe they were ransacking it for money and valuables, when they were interrupted, and then the bloody work ¢ommenced, Who that man—the accom- piico—was {is the mystery, and hence the desiro to learn anything of him. No donbt he has long since left the country, and yet it may be that he is stil! hovering tn the inity of where crime was committed in ied security, as so far thi fe nothing to implicate him in the dead except the state- ment of a woman who coald not be belleved even under ‘allows with the halter around ner neck. What gives intensity to this tragedy aod universal foar is the fact that there may be a domestic Bridget Durgan in every household, and no one compelled to bire help can count on safer: Io England there is a clans of professional bDorg'ara who confine themselves to house robbery, in which they are assiated by a female accomplice who bas obtained the situation of a domes. tie In the family. There, bowever, they seldom resort to the knife; for if discovered a sort of sandbag is used and the victim is knocked seneeless, but not deprived of life. Here, however, whatever is the reason, a knife or 8 pistol is invariably used. Tt is the fear that this crime may become epidemic, as dud the garotte a few years ago—another foreign style of robbery—that increases the desire to know a truth- ful version of the affair from Bridget herself. She has givon threo accornts, as has beea already mentioned; whe.her the promised forth and last acconnt will bo more truthfal remaie to be seen if it bas the stamp of honesty. All the accounts published of this woman, that she is an idiotic, irresponsible creators, are so much trash She is no beauty, by any means; bat she ia a reasona- dle, thinking, crafty woman; donbly bad, becareo in addition to being a passionate woman she has conside- rable low cunving. She clings to life like a sensible woman, but labors uoder tho impres:ton that if she keens the public Jgnorant of the dota'ls of that fearful night's work, so eager is the public to know it, it may be the means of procrastinating tha hear of bor death, Of the allegod accomplice of Bridget, the woman Gilroy, althosgls it has been said that she isa Wash ton Market plekpocket, nothing bad is known. A very good likeness of her has been ahown to the detectives of this city and others that would be likely to recognize her; but the most that thev can savof her is that her face 18 familiar to thom.

Having made up her mind thit the law will be carried out at the time appointed, she wishes to be as much alone ax possible with hor spiritaal advisers, Horeto’ore she busied herself listen- ing to the epectations of visitors concerning ber casa, and reading every item that was published relative to her. Now, asthe day of execution draws near, she is enjoined to think of mattors pertaining to her soul's I terest. The keepar of the jail says that bat for th varions articles that have appeared in the papers, which, by some means, invariab! hed her, be would have had, ere th’s, a fall confe That seems to be rather av illogical conclusion, now has three confessions. When he gets the fourth he can noither say that Bridget is stingy nor that (bo prees has cro:sed his path. ‘The unfortunate woman realizes her position and bears up well under it; but it has not affected her appetite or her rest at night. She does not go moping about ber coll bowailing her fate, but, characteristic of the woman, fondiy and faisely hopes that something will turn up to avert the doom awaiting her. Althongh sho may not realize it as sons of her symoatbizers wonld have her, » has more common sense ‘en to believe that F can be obliterated from the record of time and that can jump into the mi of next week. She has had so many mawkish condolers since her incarceration that she would be more than a woman if she did not now begin to think that she was a saint instend of a sinner On Monday last four ladies and a child were n to leavo her wth weeping eye. The oldest in the company wonki probably be sev the child a girl not over soven, It seemed rather a ‘strange place to take a child, and rather an early age to familiarize hor with crime, Showing the likeness of Bridget Dorgan to a gentie- man engaged in the pawnbrok!ing business, he imme- diately recognized it, When asked the reason, he ro piied bis office was paironized very much by helpa.
