THE GALLOWS. Execution of John W. Moore at Greenville, Bond County, Ul.—History of the Case— Written and Verbal Confessions of the Mur derer—Letters from Moore to His Wite and Child—The Scaffold and the Execution. From the St. Louis (Mo.) Repubiican, Oct. 23.) esterday at Greenville, the county seat of Bond county, im the State of Iilinois, fifty miles east of St. Louis, on the line of the St. Louis, Vandalla and ‘Terre Haute Ratiroad, Joun W. Moore, convicted of the murder of Mrs. Louisa McAdams, wile of Mr. Jesse M. McAdams, on the 5th day of July last, suf- fered the extreme penalty of the law by being hanged by the neck until he was dead. ~ HISTORY OF TIE CASE. Joh W. Moore, the condemned and executed man, with his wife, lived in a house and on the farm of one John P, Goodson, about three miles south of Greenville. Mr. Goodson was an unmarried man , and made his home with Moore and his wife, or rather ey kept house for Goodson, whose father had raised Moore from the time he was @ boy of fourteen or sixteen years unsii he attained jority. Mr. McAdams owned and occupied the farm adjoining the one on which Moore lived; lus house, & frame oue of two rooms, being situated about eighty rods to the southwest of Moore’s, there being a small branch and grove of timber between the two houses. McAdams and Moore were about the same age, and were somewhat related by marrlage—about two years previous to the murder Moore having married @ young Woman of the noighoorhood by the name of Hannan Orine, a sister to Jolin Orme, whose wife in turn was sister to the murdered woman, Mrs. McAdams. Under these circumstances it was natu. ral that @ close neighborly intimacy should exist between the two families, aud Moore, presuming upon that intimacy and the frank, free, open aud honest disposition of Mrs. McAdams (who is sald to have been @ most amiable woman), and with ap unlawful and unholy lust, and in violation of his own marital vows and obliga- tions, sought on the day of the murder to violate her person, and failing in his purpose, in a most brutal and fiendish manner, attempted to conceal that crime by committing a greater one. At the time of the murder Mrs. McAdams was about eigh- teen years of age, and had been married about one year, while Moore was the father of one child. Moore Was @ man in whose physical organization the ani- mal predominated, and since his incarceration he has ikly and freely admitted that the control of that element of his nature was his greatest disturb- ing conflict, and vo his inability to control it, or, more directly speaking, to his inordinate and amor- ous desires, he attributed his unfortunate and de- plorable end. This unholy attempt upon the purity and virtue of Mrs. McAdams, as above stated, was made on Mon- day, the 5th day of July, and the marks on the floor of the room (waich Was an uncarpeted one) where the struggle took place gave evidence of the 5! an with which she resisted his lecherous purpose. She wore at the time of the occurrence a pair of high- heeled boots, with nails in the heels, impressions from which were Lang A indented in the floor for distances of three feet in diferent directions, Fail- ing in his purpose, and fearing the result of the exposure with which she threatened him, Moore became alarmed and leit the house and went to his own home, and, as seems by his confession which is published below, told his wife that a neighboring woman was sick and desired her to go over. aAiter she lelt he gathered his clothes together with the purpose of fleeing from the country, but thouguts of his wife and child prevatied over this purpose and he abaudoned it and went into his wheat field to open out some shocks to dry Irom the rams. While engaged in tnis work and considering the crime of which he had just been guilty, he determined%o go back and see Mrs, McAdams and by some means prevail upon her to hush the mater up and conceal his baseness from her husvand, the church (Moore being a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and had been connected with the Sabbath school) and the neighbors, Seeing him returning towards the house, aud fearing, as 1s supposed, another assault, Mrs. Mcad- ams started to flee across a field in the direction of her sister’s, Mrs, Orme, Anticipating her object to be to give information of what had transpired, he gave chase, and, overtaking ber, committed the foul and bellish murder for which he was yesterday exe- cuted. On catching his vicum he struck her several times with his fist, felliug her to the ground, and then drew his knife and stabbed her several tines im each side and also on the back of her neck and head, then turned her over on her back and cut her throat, which finished his bloody deed. He then returned to hia own wheat field, threw down some shocks, reset them and went back to the body of his victim to see it she was dead, and finding he¥ spirit had flown he went after nis own wife and told her that Mrs. McAdams was dead in the field. Return- ing to his home he mounted a horse and started to where some of their neighbors were engaged in a harvest field to give the alarm that Mrs. McAdams had been murdered. The first man to whom he tm- the fearful intelligence, however, was Mr. john P, Goodson, the man on whose farm he lived, and the next the men engaged in the field to which he had started. AS may be well supposed the intelligence spread like wildfire, and it was not long before the mang!ed remains of nis victim, as her body lay stark and ett in death on the spot where she had fallen—a martyr to woman’s Virtue and chastity—was surrounded by large numbers of the neighbors. A justice of the peace was summoned to act as coroner, and not until after his arrival was her body removed to the house, and in the identical room where, a few hours before, she had successfully resisted his base assault, the solemn rites of an inquest were heid, | Moore in the gneantime being present, taking an active part in the proceedings, and a part ol! the time holding a lighted lamp over the remains of her whom he first atuempted to foully pollute and sub- sequently murdered. Among other witnesses introduced on the occasion, Moore was sworn to testify, and on oath stated that “on that afternoon, on passing the house, he had noticed Mrs. McAdams on the porch washing and a strange man sitting by the well; that after he ar- rived at home and had gone into his wheatfeld to open out some shocks of wheat he heard a scream in the direction of the house of McAdams as of some one in great distress. Presently he heard another BCI and then he started to run over. When he reached the house he found both Mrs. McAdams and the strange man goue, the one from the house and the other from the weil. He then supposed she might have been hailooing to frighten some unruly stock from tue wheat ficld, and went out and climbed up onthe fence and peered over in the direction where her body was found, and discovered the corpse lying upon the ground.’’ During the progress of the inquest Moore and one or two others had been stripped of their clothing, which was closely examined for stains of blood, and on the right sleeve of Moore’s irt & small stain Was discovered. Previous to this some slight cir- cumstances had aroused suspicion against Moore, and Sheriff Wafer took him down to the fence trom which ho had testified ne had seen her body, ana, going to the spot where the murder was committed, threw down a few sheaves of wheat, covered them with a coat and returned to the position Moore had designated, but found that neither they nor a human body could be seen therefrom. Some boot tracks had in the meanume been found in the door yard, one of which had been secretly covered up, and the boots that Moore was known to have worn that day were next obtained from his nouse, their shape and dimensions com- pared with the track 80 concealed, and found to be identical, and he was placed under arrest and lodged in the Greenville jail on Tuesday, the 6th day of July. When Moore was arrested and searcled common two-biaded pocketknife was found upon his person, the larger blade of which was about three Inches Jn length, and from the point of which a sinall particle had been broken off, as if it had re- cently been in contact with some hard subatance, Even after his arrest and until the Saturday foliow- ing Moore protested his innocence, and 4o respected had he previously been that but few seemed willing to believe him guilty. On Wednesday, the 7th of July, Sherif! Wafer got on track of a man answering the description of that given by Moore of the one he stated he saw sitting by McAdams’ well, and, following the trail to Woodburn, in Macoupin county, he arrested a man by the name of Dixon, and on Priday, the 9th of July, returned with him to Greenville and lodged him in jatl also; but on Saturday, the 10th of July, Moore sent for Rev, N. M. Powers, of the Methodist kpiscopal church at Greenville, to whom he made the following WRITTEN CON¥ESSION: To Tue PRor.E or sas, STATE or ILLINOIR: 0% Know all persons that, Ip Joho W. resto us: icion for the murder of Louisa McAdams, do this day ac- I did do the ‘horrible deed of ; that [ hereby make confeasion jempted, but to the fact, and pray that no violence wilt’ be ai that I may'bo dealt with according to law.

HIS LAST LETTERS, ‘The first bears date— ‘THURSD DEAR COMPANION—I feat ny a few of my thoughts and feelin, ful to be permitted to say that I am well. I have eaten a tolerably hearty breakfast and bowed the knee in a short Drayer of thanksgiving to the Father of all good, I slept well last night, going to bed at my usual hour, about nine o'clock; went to sleep between ten and eleyen ‘o'clock and slept very sound until morning. ‘Truly, I am. blessed above many of my fellows, who by practice are a great deal better than Tam.

Launch of an Iron Steam Yacht for Revenue Service in “Our Arctic Possessions.” ‘The Ylongshoremen and carters in South street were surprised yesterday at the appearance of & strange craft, which emerged from the boat house of D. R. Ingersoll and crept slowly Into the water, ab twelve o'clock, propelled by the pressure of a large number ofmen working with the appliances of tim- ber and bars for such cases made and provided. The launch was effected with ease, and no accident occurred. The boat 1s 20 tons measurement, 37 feet long, 10); feet beam and 5 feet 6 Inches deep, and is built of tron. She is provided with an engine of twenty-horse power, built at the Washington Iron Works, and is fitted with a condenser. by which fresu water suml- cient for the use of the boiler can be made from salt water. The condensing pipe 1s outside the boat ana below the water line, and goes entirely round from the centre on one side to the centre on the other. Anoiher boat similar in every respect to this one is in course of completion at the same yard and will be launched on Friday next. Both boats have been built by Mr, Ingersoll, under the superintendence of « Wasiiugton marine acting under the direction of the Revenue Departinent. They are intended for use in Alaskan waters, where the whales are reported to be spouting oil without paying incernal revenue, and tue seals and walruses are treating the United States oilicers with great disrespect. It 18 foudly hoped that the boats will steam eighteen miles an hour, 60 that It will be quite possible for the two ofiicers and four sailors who will form the crew of each of these formidable frigates to overhaul and put a three cent stamp on the tail of every marine animal that defles authority. The dimensions of the cabin and forecastie are such that the men will have to sleep spoon fashion, which, considering the cheerful cumate, is a Wise provision of the construct ors. The bouts will also carry sails, so chat the two officers can lay off and warm themseWes by watch- ing the four men work them. phey will also have an anchor and chain to hold on to an Iceberg while the animals are orderly and to make fast to a friendly whale when unusual i pa 1@ required. Bunks for the storage of coal and guard houses for impertinent walruses take up some of the room on bourd the boats. A formidable two-pound popgun will frown from the bow of each of the craft wnen not covered With snow; and it being well known that the beat way to kill seais is to rap them on the noge, a num- ver of black thorn sticks, imported from Ire!aud for the purpose, will be pl in the hands of the officers. These vaiuable and formidable additions to the navy only cost the insignificent sum of $7,000 each, and the result of their presence in Alaska on the revenue is expected to be moat favorable.

MOORE'S LAST HOURS, Moore rose from his bea yesterday morning at his usual hour, and, in response to the greeting of the ‘Sheriff, replied that he had rested as weil as usual and that he was fully prepared for the near-ap- proaching hour which was to end his earthly exist ence. He partook of @ light breakfast, which was prepared for him in the hall of the prison depart- ment, and immediately retired to his cell, where he remainca until about eight o'clock, when the door ‘was thrown open and he appeared within it. HIS PERSONNEL. In stature Moore was avout five feet eight Inches in height, square build, light hatr, biue eyes, fine oval forehead and a square, full face—in fact,'a good iook- ing man in every particular, aud whose geueral con- tour and make-up would dicate him to be the last man to be guilty of Ko atrycrous a murder. When the reporter first saw and coaversed with him he was dressed in white suirt, giay ovat, Jean pantaloons and common boots. Im seply to his greeting he said he felt well aa regarde? physical health, aud that from the time he eommutted the murder he had cast hie entire reiiance upon Him who was alone able and willing to save. He had gone to Him just a8 he was, ana there his bope was stayea, He had a firm aud steadfast assurance that his sin, 8 monstrous as it was, had been waslea away, and that in afew hours more his epirit would be with the God who gave it. During this conversation the condemned inan broke down and sobbed like a child, The jail hall was pretty well filled, including some who knew him before his soul was stained ‘with murder or his ands witn blood, and to their ret of “How do you do morning, Jounny ?’’ ie returned pretty much the same answer and held about the same conversation. These tnterviews were short, as the hour sixea for his execution was from ten to eleven A. M., and his spiritual advisers were almost momentarily expected. ‘THE FINAL HOUR. In ashort time after we left the cell of him who seemed so full of hope for immortal glory, mur- derer though he confessed himself to be, the Sherif entered his cell and conducted him to an ante- room in the jatl building, where he robed himself for death. He previously expressed a desire wo be hanged and buried in his wedding suit, which request was granted, and no other clothes were prepared for the occasion. The suit consisted of @ fine linen shirt; black cloth pants, frock coat of the same material, biack satin vest and caif boots. Between ten and eleven o'clock the prisoner, supported by tue Sherif op the right, emerged from the room where he had clothed himscif, and with solemn, downcast look and slow, firm and nnfalter- mg Steps passed across the hall, through the south room and dining room of the jatl buiding, the lat- ticed porch before referred to, when they turned to the right and ascended to the scaffold aud to the trap door from which he was to be launched out of the world. ‘The noose Was adjusted, but before the fatal spring was touched the Rev, Mr. N. M. Powers, whe accompanied him to the scaffold, offered up in poe of the coudemned man @ feeling and touching etition. " The only words spoken by Moore after he ascended the scaffold were to ask the Sheriff if he was not going to tle his hands. At the close of the prayer farewell was taken of the unfortunate man by his spiritual advisers, the ShertitT and gome of his assistants, the white cap was drawn over his face, the spring was touched, adrop of about six feet, a brief struggle at the end of three minutes, and the life of Joun W. Moore, the murderer of Mrs, Louisa McAdams, was finished. At the end of twenty minutes life was pronounced extinct, the body was out down and prepared for burial, and thus ends the Jast scene in the feartul drama, Man's ideas of just | punishment were satisfied and the law vindicated. MORBID CURIOSITY OF THR POPULACE. sary in the morning large numbers of people from the country began to flock to Greenville and gather in the vicinity of the Jail, ail anxious to wit- ness the execution, and some threats had been made to tear down the enclosure, but the sheriff had inau- urated measures to promptly art any atiempt of 8 in God, port on Wednesday for Liverpool. ‘The matis for Europe will close at the Post OMice at nine o'clock A.
