[From the Montreal Herald, August 28.7 ‘We have reason to beiieve shat peopie in all parte of ‘he Dominion, not least in the sister provinces, are look- dmg forward with both interest aud auxisiy to the eiec- tion contest pow gving on in Monwreal West Apart from the great personal popularity of Mr. the contest is in some seuse viewod as oe between Fenian- fem aud good order. We find this impression coming to ‘Bs in oUF correspondence from the extreme parte of the Powinion, and there {s reason for !t. It has been re- marked (by Mr. James Smith, among others) that Mr. Deviin has wade no denial or condemnation of Fenian- ism. He has not, of course, himself a Fenian. He will deny that he has been an avowed one; but he knows foll well the character of his support, which has split off from Mr. McGee, and he deals with Fenianism very ton- @erly accordingiy. At his last West meeting in Victoria square be had Mr. David, advocate, to speak for bim. Mr. Davia very mild and neat definition of Fenianism as applied to the prisoners Mr. Devlin dofended at Bweeteburg. Ho said they wera ‘brave men, whore riotism had unfortunately led them rather too far danger; and that it ‘redounded to Mr. Deviin's honor’ that he bad been so successful im his efforts to Felieve them from their difficult ties,” He abused the Britieh government in the most outrageous terms, de- seribing it as the “common tyrant of Ireland and Canada, both of which countries are groaninz under the yoke of oppression.” This speech of mr. David-waa nttered in neh, It is the ground on which the suffrages of the French speakiug electors of Montreal West were asked for by Mr. Devlin, and on which Mr. Devlin should be Gofemed. . The elect ra had better jook the issue thus put fully and squarely in the face. There is no blinking it. There fe no pretence of denial or explanation of the correctness ‘of the report of Mr. David’s speech, which has now been published two or three days, and been a gubject of con- ‘Versation in the streets, If wo turn to the Fast, and look at the character of ‘Mr, Lanetot’s opposition to Cartier, we tind that it te , intense hatred’ of British con- men preference for a comection with the United States, “In other words, to borrow a term from an evening contemporary, it ‘is French Fenianime a Te politics there is no middie feature, Every voter ‘ust xupport one prinerplo or the other, in issue in the @lections In Montreal Kast, it ia Mr.’ Cartier and tho Dominion, 1. «., working out on our separate carver, under the provection of Britain, on one siue, and Mr. Janetot and demagnogism, communism and annexation om theother, In Moptrcal West the issue is nearly the wame, Mr. MoGee represents the Dominio! id British fonnection on one side; Mr. Deviin such views as those eet forth by Mr. David on the other And every news- ‘and voter joes not support the one does sup- er hypocritical professions may be MURDER IN LANSINGBURG.

The murderer died protesting his inho- cence, and, according to his own words on the gallows, fally confident of happiness in the other world. The spiritualistic ideas of the departed felon buoyed him up, or appeared to do so, until the fatal drop fell; and a greater exhibition of self poss¢ssion, sang froid and utter indifference under such painfully trying circumstances was never seen in this or any other country. For some days past Winnemore had steadily declined to admit any visitors, with the exception of bis own rela- tives and bis counsel, Damon Y. Kil ), Esq. ; and ever since his incarceration, and even until the moment he was led out for execution, he has maintained a cheerful, confident and even amiable frame of mind, He has invariably in the statement that he did not wish either a reprieve or acommutation of sentence, and when on last his counsel prid him a visit and told bim not to entertain hope, he said that he terference, and in fact had been reprisved, ted, and he would much rather. is sentence commuted to imprison- said that he earnestly it life. He vent wed to got ouk of this wicked world, and the bour oF execution could not come too soon forhim. He was quite positive that he would revisit the eerth in the spirit, and stated that before his body was cut down be would be mizing in the crowd around the scaffold, look- ing at his ows remains and hearing the remarks that might be made about him. He threatened to appear on the night of tne day of his execation at the bedsides of number of persons from whom he conceived he had suffered wrong, and would trouble them terribly. ‘The prisoner's theory of the marder is that if he com- miited it he was unconscious of it, and his spirit was not with his body at the time. His cou Mr. Kilgore, also persista in this theory, and up to the last moment expressed his conviction that bis client was an innocent man, in at least a moral pol of view. Winnemore jingular character, ype of the spiritual - 1s of the present day. He had mot the appearance of @ murderer, but looked mild, dreamy and strange. Sheriff Howell received a telegran from Governor Geary, stating that he had made up bis. mind not to interfere with the process of the law in Wione- “more and th parations for the execution were commenced. Invitations to attend the execution wero extended only to the Sheriff's jury, the conlomned maa'e counsel and a limited nawber of the members of the press, ‘aba quarter before 10 o'clock this morning those who were invited to be present, assembled at the Assombly Buildings, Tenth and Chestnut, and proceeded in a car to the prison, situated at the Southern extremity of the city, On arriving at the prison the small procession marched in in the following order:— Sherif Howell and his jory, consisting of the follow- ing «entiome!

R. pods, The party were conducted to an ante-room while the preparations for the execution were going on, Your correspondent during the interim learned that Winnemore slept welt during the nizht, and woke up ibis morning feeling quite refreshed, on and eight o'clock this morning be was visited by brother and sisters and a male and female cousin, The g this interview, 00d care of his littic sisters, o'clock, when the finat adicus place. at first to eee his brothor, but was prevailed upon to do #)by Mr Kilgore, bis counsel, who was with hima durug the entire morning, and who exercised great control over him, being, like Winnemore, ritualist. Dariug the morning the condet convorsa- tion was mainly about epiritualism, reiterated his intention of coming back to earth, Ho breakiasted about six o'clock, and partook heartily of coffeo, eggs and bread and butter, remarking during the mea! that it had been stated that he intended to starve himeelf to death, and he desired to prove the contrary, as he bad not missed a meal since ho was committed to prison. About cight o'clock the prisoner was brought down to the cell occupied by Gottlieb Williams just before his execution, Atexacily twenty minutes past ten o'clock Sheriff Howell, accompanied by Keeper Fleming and two representatives of the press, entered Winnemore’s vell, ond the Sheriff, after a brief conversation with the prigoner, informed him that bis time had come aud he must now perform his painful duty by preparing him for execution, Winnemore ied that he was quite ready and even anxious for the scene. fhe prisoner was then taken from the cel! to the room in which the sheriff's jury and reporters wore stationed, and the order of procession was formed as follows for the gyno | which was erected in the west end of the prison yar to the north of the the main building :— The Prisoner, supported by Fleming and Mr. Sheriff Howell and Mr. Perkins, Superintendent of the Prison. Sheriffs = Depnty Sheri!

He walked to the gallows with the a ect fogeemang tera juictly looked at different objects in the prison yard. same one used at the execution of Pro! some ten or twelve others, and is a simple, though cacious, structure, The foot of the gallows was reached ata quarter of eleven, when Winnemoro mounted the steps with firm. ness and alacrity, accompanied by Sherif Howell, Keeper Fleming, Superiniendent Pe sand D. G. gore, The wretched man looked quietly around on the scene beneath him, and once or twice glanced upward. He submitted tamely to being handcuffed, and during the operation with the Sheri, Sheriff Howell then said tbat the prisoner desired to make a few remarke, when, with a ciear voice and per- fectly self- manner, he addressed those present as follows: ~~ GextLeMEN—I have been brought to this ecaifold to to die, and I kvow it is expected that I will say a few words, which I now proceed todo, [| have only to say that Iam innocent in word aod deed of the crime which Iam to suffer an ignominious death. I have al- ways tried to live up to & knowledge of the right and do my duty faithfully; but how terrible it is to hang a man who has not commiited any crime. Death iteeif has no terrora for me, for | know where my sou! will go fo, and I also know thet mv spirit will come bark to earth, I only regret the manner of my death, on ac count of my relatives; and if I exhibit a little tremor now it is not fear, but the griof I feel at parting from my brother and sisters, who were with mo so recently. [ (orgive everybody on earth forall the w I have enf- fered, and there have been many of them. I troly forgive Mr, Maun—(The Diatrict Attorney who tried bim—Ker, —) and I forgive the Governor also for his conduct to- wards me; and ineerely trust this is the last occur- ronce of this kind that will take place, I have not had justice, but will be sure to get it in the other world. I bear no ill will towards anybody, and ae Christ died for a principle eo do; although you may not kuow it now, but you will very soon. 1 believe I have nothing more to say, only that Ihave no un- kind feelings towards anybody. The prisoner then turned to Sheriff Howell and shook bauds with him, and did the same with Mr. Perkins and keeper Fleming. Hoe then extended his hand warmly towards Mr. Kilgore, when for the first time ho was affected to tears. He sad to Mr. Kilgore:— “No mortal could have done more for me than you bave done. I thank you from my beart, and may God bless you.”” Mr. Kil, told him he had done overything he |, and commended his soul to could, but without a God, There was po mi T present, because Winnemore determinedly rofused to receive one, and this was the firet instance in the history of the prison where a man was by without the presence of a clergyman.
