: ed BARRETT, THE FENIAN. Exeeution of the Clerkenwell “Con- spirator,” in England, Seenes Around Newgate and Appearance of a London Mob. Zhe Hangman, the Halter, the Fall and Death. By the steamship City of Boston, at this port, we have the following report of the execution by hang- ing, in London, of Michael Barrett, the Fenian, con” vieted as the author of the sad explosion at Clerken- Well prison, by which so many persons were killed, as @etailed by special cable telegram to the HERALD at the moment. The Crime. {From the London Times, May 27.] Yesterday morning, in the presence of a vast con- @ourse of spectators, Michael Barrett, the author of the Clerkenwell explosion, was Newgate. In its circumstances there was very little to distinguish this from ordinary executions. The crowd was greater, perhaps, and better behaved; still, from the peculiar atrocity of the crime for which Barrett suffered, and from the fact of ae being proba- the last public execution in Englai _— than usual notice. It would be tinent now to review the evidence on which Barrett was condemned. Probably in the history of criminal triais there is none which affords such proof of patient investigation, of long, anxious and deliberate searching after truth. In fact, Bar- Tett may be sald to have had two trials, if we the supplementary oue since his conviction to’ tain if there was a possibility of doubt about the ver- dict, or if there was any evidence which could strengthen his plea of an alibi. On both trials he was found guilty. The defence of an alibi is, of course, the best or the worst in the world. If estab- lished it is dnal; but on the other hand it is fatal if the person accused tries to prove that he was absent from the spot where he is charged with the crime and it is found on examination that he was in the aiomaet and at the very time on the scene from which he strives to show that he was absent. Was the defence of Sarrett, and it failed most sig- nally. It is rare in the history of our criminal juris- prudence that government allows a sort of special commission to inquire into the validity of the jury’s verdict aud judge’s approval. Still, in this case there were what inay be called special circumstance: for it was urged that (he truth of the alibi, if inquire into at Giasgow, could be more easily ascei than in London. With @ live at stake, of course no Toom was left for doubt. A most Was made, and the result provea to conviction that Barrett was in London at the time he tried to prove he was in Glasgow, and that Barrett was the man who fired the powder barrel. He was brought from Glasgow “to do the job.” He sought to prove that he was in Glasgow at the time, and the evidence which the government commission elicited shows beyond a doubt tiiat he was in London and at all the laces where he was identitied. It seems rather a failure Of justice that only one man should suifer for a@ crime in which s0 many were concerned, and which brought about such a terrible destruction of life and property. But the sajue jury which acquit- ted the others convicted Barrett, and we need say nothing more to show the leniency which governed their decisions and the scrupies with which tiey ad- mitted even possible doubts, Michael Barrett was leit to die, and none who know anything of the pri- vate history—if we may so term it—of U doubt that he deserved his fate, THE EXECUTION differed little from otner similar exhibitions. Monday the barriers were put up, and on Monday night a fringe of eager sightseers assembled, mostl, sitting beneath the beais, but ready on a moment's netice to rise and cling to the front places they nad 80 long waited jor, There were the usual cat calls, comic choruses, dances and even mock hymns, till towards two o'clock, when the gayety inspired by alcoliol faded away as the public houses closed, and popular excitement was not revived till the biack- ened deal frame which forms the base of the scaffold Was drawn out in the dawn, and placed im frout of the’door from which Barrett jas tu issue, rival Was accompanied with a great cheer, wiich at once woke up those wio had been buddied in er barricades, and who joined in the general acclaination. ‘The arrival of the doorsteps and und scuffuld did much to increase and through the dawn people began to flock in, the greater portion of the ne young women and litue children.

The subject The Fina? Vote Announced in England. British Opinion of the Butler and Stevens Failure. Our European files of the 27th of May furnish the following comments of the English press on the news Just to hand in London of the final vote on the John- Son impeachment trial:— The Vote and Radical Failure. {From the London Times, May 27.) ‘The Senate of the United Siates have refused to convict President Johnson. A vote was taken yea- terday upon the second aud third articles of. the ‘im achment, and the result was the same as that of jatrdauy week. Thirty-five Senators pronounced Mr. Johnson guilty of the misdemeanors charge® in these articles, nineteen acquitted him, The ma- jority failed as before to secure the two-thirds neces- sary for @ conviction, and the impeachment has definitely and finally failed. The Senate ad- Jjourned sine die without delivering an opinion on the remaiaing articles of che impeachment; and if this were not of itself a suiticient proof that the procedure is at an end, the conciusion would neces- sarily be adopted when it is seen that the second and third articles, in combination with the article upon which the Senate voted on the 16th, exhaust all the offences charged against the President. The article disposed of a week since was 80 wide that upon it, if upon any, conviction might have been se- cured, The speeches of Mr. Johnson on his Western tour in 1866 formed part of it, and it contained a general charge of an attempt to curb the irecdom and lessen the dignity of the legislature as well as to override the constitution, ‘he aiticles considered yesterday were more specific, They dealt with the abortive dismissal of Mr. stanton from office as Sec- retary of War and the substitution of General Lo- renzo Thomas as Secre‘ary ad interim in his stead. Mr. Johnson’s letters dist ing Mr. Stanton and ap- pointing General Thomas were charged as a violation of the Tenure of Oifice act and of the constitution. These attempts to dispiace Mr. Stanton and the West- ern speeches make up the offences upon which the Managers of the linpeachinent rested their case, and the refusal of the Senate to convict Mr. Johnson upon them is an acquittal upon every charge in the im- peachment, It cannot but bea matter of intense gratification to every weil wisher of the American republic that the impeachment has failed. ‘the citizens of the United States—above ail, the citizeus of the Northern States—have prided themselves upon being a law- abiding people, and despite occasional excesses, such as stain the history of «il nations, the native born Americans have been justitied in their pride. The condemnation of Mr. Jonson would, however, have disposed forever of this boust. it is bad enough that so large a majority should ave veen found willing to convict the President upon the evidence brought before them, but tuere have been found a few republican Seuators sufficiently inde- pendent of the tyranny of pcrty to resist the pres- sure which would have compelled thein to violate all considerations of law and justice. ‘The names of those who voted are not given in the telegraplic despatches, but it was kuown that Mr. Fessenden, of Maine, the Senator celened oe dir. Lincoln as Secre- tary for the Treasury when Mr. Chase resigned that post would be one of those who would refuse to con- vict the President. Mr. Hendersva, of Missouri, was another thus distinguisied, and his resolution has apparently remained firm, aithough the full power of the isiature of Missvuri, to whose sulfrages he owes his present position, has been brought to bear upon him. Those wuo know how easily men among ourselves are turned aside froin their spontaneous resolution by the action of some, it may be only a@ knot of their constituents, can understand the strength of purpose those repubiican Sen- avors must have po-sessed wio have adhered to the conclusions of their own judgment in a& land where poitiics ig a projession, where departure from exact conform ty with party discipline incurs a sentence of exclusion from political life, and where the machinery of party organization and the pres- sure of party opinion are the most galiing and op- pressive to be found anywhere iu the world. So deeply do the public men of America feel the neces- sity of acting in unison with a vast number of others to accomplish any joint object, tiat itis rare to find original and independent counsel ainong them, and the conscientious self-reliance of those who quitted their party to voie with the minority against the tm- eachment deserves the greater honor. Nothing else, jowever, We veuture (o say, Was possible, if the law of the case was to be regurdei. Nothing else was possible if the reputation of the Senate was to be maintained unsullied. The constitution of the Union, the articles of the impeachment, the evidence, ‘and the arguments are all before us, and there ts no rea- son W an opinion may uot be pronounced upon them, It may be said that tue promoters of im- peachment were unlucky in the Managers who rep- resented them at the bar of the Senate, and there can be no doubt that the contrast between General Butler and Mr. Stevens on the one side, and Mr. Stanbery, Judge Curiis aud Mr. Evarts on the other, has had its effect; but it must be observed that the joints at issue Were so narrow that they can be udged apart from the arguments of the counsel, and it betrays a complete misapprehension of the situation to suggest that General Butler and Mr. Stevens were untuckily chosen. These two Managers were the authors of the impeachment, General Butler was elected to the House of Ke» resentatives express- ly to promote it, and it was owing ‘o him and to Mr. Stevens that Mr. Johason was itapeacied at the bar of the Senate. When the House of Representatives determined upon presenting the Impeachment they accepted the leadership of those who became its man- bid The contempt for law, the readiness to do violence to the Constitution, the disposition. to use without limit any power they might possess, these quatities which are best expressed by the word Juco tiem, which have been t ecial demerits of the political career of both General Butler aud Mr. Stevens, were willingly adopted by the House of Representatives for theuise. ves when they consented to their ieadership, and it is idie to tak of the mana~ gers who were, iu fact, the trusted counsellors and representatives of the House as uniuckily chosen, he evidence and argument before the Senate re- veaied the essential vice of tne whole proceeding. ‘The charge was ihat Mr. Joinson, in violation of the Tenure of Ofice act, Lad attempted to displace Mr Stauton, and Mr. Jobuson, in reply, pleaded that he did so_ in order to test the coustilationality of the aci. He produced evidence Ww support tila alle: gation of motive, and the Mauagers liad nothing they could submit to displace tated simply and apart from unnecessary circu: z His 18 a Summary of the question before the Senate, cad as matter of law the case evidently fails.

What will be the ¢ val of Mr. John- son on the Uuion and especialiy ¢ Presidential coniest of the coming autumiy It seems probable tiat the direct resuit will be stall, but its indir influence in strengthening the hands of moderate men cannot be sligut, Mr. Jonson himself may not improbably be elated at lw sequittal, but the Presi- deut is powerless for good or evil for the few months he has yet to serve. He inay be violent in language, but he is impotent in act. “He ovecuptes the position of Chief Magistrate without being able to control or direct the national policy; but this negative service is better (han the active mischies Mr. Wade, accord- ing to universal went Was prepared to commit. We may, indeed, fairly hope that the extreme wing of the republican party—the men led by Mr. Wade and Geveral Butler—will be thoroughly discredited by the issue of the impeachment, The Convention at Chicago, which has beep heid in the interval between the two judgments of | ute, has showa a disposition on the part of the majority of the re- patiloans to disown their policy and their guidance, the selection of oifax as tie candidate of the party for Vice President and th: denuncation of General Butler's scheme of repudiation indicate the predominance of heaitiier counsels. The Presiden- tial contest may be expected Lo become a struggie to obtain the vote of those men who turn with equak aversion from democratic and fron republican par= tisanship, and a rivairy in prudence aud moderation may follow the fatiure of the violent procedure which Was so nearly successful. [From the London Star, May 27.) ‘Thirty-five Senators voted for the conviction ot the President and nineteen for his acquitte!. The result is, of course, that he is acquitted. After this decision the Senate Court adjourned sine die, itmay, therefore, be presumed tiat nothing further will doue for the present in the matter, (From the Liverpoot Post, May 2%.) The resuit is that the President was acquitted upon the second and third articles, which charge him with the attempt to remove Stanton in violation of the law, aud which, in fact, contain the gravamen of the impeachment, The vote we have now recorded may be looked upon’ as @ virtual acquittal of Presi dent Johnson on the charyes preferred against him, He will, beyond doubt, e out iis deseredited term, and will be turned out of the White House by the eMux of time, not by the strong land of the House of Representatives, {From the Cork Examiner, May 28.] The constitutional crisis in America may be con. sidered ag terminated in consequence of the recent Votes of the Senate on the secoad aud third articles of the impeacliment, oot MPRDER Trrars.—A full bench of the Snpreme Judiera Court.will come in at the new court Reuse to-day, at two o'clock, for the trial of the now Imprisened tn this couuty on the cl der. ‘reater portion of the aftern conammed in the empanelling of the " able that the trials will not get fe Betore Tuesday foren Tt is wn no’ James E.
