THE GALLOWS IN CANADA. Execution of John Traviss—His (Con- fession, {From the Toronto Leader, Feb, 23) The first executioa which has taken place within the precincts of the new jail took place in the east- -ern yard in rear of the jail yesterday morning, Tne unfortunate vicum was the young man John Tra- ‘viss, Who, a8 Our readers Will remember, Was con- victed of the murder of Mr. John Johnston, a farmer residing 10 East Gwillimbury, by shooung him with a revolver on the 23d of last November, sborv from the murdered man’s house. ‘The motive prompting the commission of the crime a@ppeared to be an ill-feeling which the murdered we) entertained towards ‘traviss, and by his saying something detrimental to the character of the lat- ver toa poans. girl named Nichois, the daughter of @ farmer residing in the neighborhood, and to whom Traviss Was jag his addresses. The which had been pi in the city, Was taken to the jail and fixed under tne western wall of the eastern yard in rear of the building. ‘The platform was about vine feet above the level ot the ground; the drop was about four feet six inches square, aad was he.d in its place by a spring bolt ‘Walch was worked vj 1% er. Beneath the scaffola @ hole had been excavated soma at tor ns st taere mizht be suMicien! jor the body no scuiTola was ascended by a step-ladder from the yard. ‘The young man was visited in his cell, which was on the second flour vi the eastern wing, by his two sisters, Miss Nichols and four oi his male relations ‘Wednesday morning atteu o'clock. ‘They remained mn prayer @nd conversation with htm until eleven or at night, when they (ook their farewell, the separation of the prisoner and his friends being of the most distressing and heartrending description. . Wilkie, of the Young Men's Christian Associa- en with other memvers, the Rev. James Curtis, Me! Episcopal Church: the Rey. Mr. Rice, Bi- ble Christian Church, and the Key. Mr. Hainer mained Tn prayer and communion with the prisoner throughout the nigat, and until the hour of his exe- cution, He jomed fervenuy im prayer, and ap- peared to be resigned 10 his fates, but conversed Very little. He was greatly aifected at intervals, al- lowing his tears to flow freeiy. Snoruy after his friends had gone he retired to rest and slept until half-past twelve o'clock, When he arose ana prayed. He again went to sleep and slumbered until a quar- wer past four o'clock, when he left his bed. Atve! this hour the prisouer continued in prayer with ‘those present until nis nour had arrived, THE EXECUTION. Sheriff Jarvis and Deputy Sheriff Skinner arrived at the jail about a quarcer to nine o'clock, and ime Mediately set uboul making preparations for the execution, The Sueriut, Deputy Suerit, Dr. Richard. son aud the executioner proceeded to the con- demned mav’s ceil at five minutes to mine o'clock, When the process of pidioving was gone through. ‘The prisoner was then conducted to the scaffold 1n tne yard, where about flity persons were assembled, ancluding the oflicers of the jall, a detachment of police, aud the members of the press, witha few other privilegea persuas, ‘The untortunate man ascended the scaffold with a firm step, anu on reaching the platform he came dorward and in a tremulous voice made the following CONFESSION, let you know, dear friends, before I die, that I shot_him, and I not only shot him, but I'intended to shoot his wife. 1 thank God that he kept’ me from that, It is an aw/ul t ‘to shoot any one. I hope to mect the dear man in heaven. Jesus haw now got me vy the arms, and I hope to meet mother on the other side, I have just to pass through the narrow stream, and then I shail be ome, Goodby! He then Kuelt on the drop, ana the Sheriit having Femovea the condemned man’s cap the clergymen and others shook nauds hh him and bid hin a long jarewell. ‘The bungman then placed the rope around his neck and put the biack cap over his , and in another momen the drop fell, and the unhappy young man ‘was. launched into eternity, the Rey. James Curtis offering up a prayer at the time. He showed great firmness uiroughout, and died without a strug. gle, the neck having been broken by the fall, and only two or three convulsive movements of the body were visible. ‘Ihe executioner was a man engaged from the city, He was of rather stout build, with Sandy whiskers, aud about five eet in height. After hanging an hour tue body was cut down, the usual inquest being held in the jail before’ Dr. Wright, and a@ verdict of ‘died by pene. Te- “turned. The body was tnen coffined and buried in the yard beneath the scaifold, TRAVi8S’ LAST STATEMENT AND HISTORY. We have been furnished by the Rev. J. J. Rice with a copy of @ statement which was made to him by Traviss on Tuesday night, when Mr. Rice re- Mained with him during the whole night:— After having given au outline of his (Traviss') early life, &c., he continued :—-My father dioa when I was young, about oix and my mother was very kind, which I soon took advantage of, and by my wickedness often caused ber myon sorrow. | Wiien I was fourteen years oid I joined the lunteers, which grieved mother greatly, but I continued jandto that step, and the bad company arising mm it, I attribute my being where I am. Gradually I loat ‘allrelish for the company of my family and friends, and re mysel{ up a good deal to the follies my companions in- din.

While 1 was working at Johnston's | forme: an intimate acquaintance with Miss Elizabeth Nichols, a daughter of Mr. John Nichols, who lived died very sarcastic anguage avout my golag to Wr- Nichols used lc ir.

I tried in every way .o find out what to this day to tel. It would to out even now. inthis way after Ileft Johaston's until the my feeling agains, him increasing ai) the took my pistol in my pocket on leaving ughts of revenge were certainly entertained by nite as to what course I was going to action. ‘That evening I went to a revival the Methodist pal oburch, Mr. Nichols’ family were there, but I did not speak to them, and at the second singing one of Mr. Johpston's sons and igame out.

WALL Street, } Bunpay, Feb. 25, 1972, ‘The course of trade the past week was inter- rapted by the pending legislation upon the tariff and the intervention of @ holiday. The dificuities incidental to any change in the duties on imported goods are already beginning to manifest themselves, and the several interests in tea and coffee, wuiskey and tobacco have been greatly exercised as to the sbape Congressional legislation will assume, Ic 18 @ season, too, when an agitation of this character is productive of much evil, for with the prospect of @ changed basis for prices in the summer, succeeaing the close of the fiscal year, the merchants are disposed to limit their transac- tions to current needs, It ts true the imports from week to week are very heavy, but the goods now coming were bought months ago—before even Con- gress had got together, and before Prest- deni Grant proposed so sweeping an abolition of tariff imposts as that advocated in his message, In articles not so closely affected by these influ- ences the movement has been moderate. Wheat brightened up in tne beginning of the week, but re- lapsed into 1ts chronic dulness. Cotion was unset- Ued and at the close weak, under an impression that the heavy demand for money at the South just now means a more extended cultivation this year, and consequently a heavier crop in 1872-73 than in 1871-72, THE WERK IN WALL STRERT, The, market at the Stock Exchange was in the main dull, and dealings were sull confined to the more professional class of operators and brokers. The chief feature of the week was the collapse of the great “bull” movement in Union Pacific, owing to the alleged treachery of some mem- bers of the combination. ‘The sock on ion. day had progressed as far as 38%, when a leak in the “corner” was discovered, which soon widened to a considerable breaca owing to the con- sequent demoralization of a number of outsiders who had joined the rising movement tn hopes of participating in its triumph. The stock gave way despite the desperate efforts of the clique to hold it, and by Saturday had fallen to 325%, recovering at the close to 344%. The other leading specialty now 1m the hands of a ciique—viz., Pacific Mail—aiter a hesitating and on the whole steady market, be- came buovant and advanced to 6934, when It was known thatthe company had been compelled to charter an extra steamer—making two for next week—to do the business required of them. The general market was lower under the influence of more active money, which was worth on Friday and Saturday as much as 1-169 % per cent a day in addition to legal interest, The Custom House in taking in so much specie aaliy for duties has weak- ened the coin reserve of the banks, while with a flow of currency to the South the greenback reserve 13 also impaired, The domestic exchanges are almost at a standstill as between this city and the West; but the demand in the South is reflected in the rates for New York drafts at New Orleans, which are one-quarter per cent discount, With the return ol the Legislature to Albany a renewed and strong effort will be made to pass the measure repealing the Erle Classification act. Every merchant, banker and business man in the city, State and county who wields any influence whatever with any member of the Legis- lature should exert his persuasive powers to their utmost capacity in heiping this movement, than which there is hardly any other more important to their several interests, The chicanery and corrup- ton of the Ring in the management of the Erie Raliroad have aone incalculable harm to our inter ests in Europe, where the enhancement of our credit has had to fight constantly the taunts and reproach of those who have pointed out tne Erie corporation as @ warning against help to American enterprise. Competent financial authorities have estimated that the Erie swindle has cost tne country a hundred millions annually in the check it has given to the investment with us of foreign capital—a statement at which we cannot wonder, in view of the glut of money in London, where the temporary inter- est rate is now and has been for nearly @ year only 2} a 8 per cent. Now that this great measure of reform 13 contemplated, eve good citizen should contribute what he can toward its consummation. “A long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together,” and we may lift from our good name the deep discredit and disgrace of this Erie infamy. In the gold market there has been a steady rise from 110g to 111, under the growing discrepancy between the mercantile exports and imports, and between the outcome from the Treasury and the pay+ ments thereinto, not to speak of the firmer tone of the foreign exchange, and an advance for the week in sterling of quite a quarter per cent. ‘The policy of Mr. Boutwell in adhering to smail gold sales, outside of its alleged object in diverting Congress from @ too close inquiry as to the excess of tne revenue over the needs of the government, 1s possi- bly constrained by an apprehension that with the cooler relations existing between the United States and Great Britain, the foreign market for the new loan offers no very hopeful prospect of provid- ing the menns of redeeming the forty millions of five-twenties, which he has “called” for March, and which, being held almost entirely in Europe, will, in lieu of corresponding subscriptions to the new loan, tax the coin resources of the Treasury to the extent of about thirty-flve millions of dollars. Government bonds were firm, but without special activity. Toward the close the currency issues fell off as a consequence of the advance In gold.

THE SOUTHERN STATE BONDS.

The weekly statement of the associated vanks proved unfavorable; but owing to the rumors of an intended lock-up of greenbacks a much worse one was looked for, The chief feature is a loss of over @ million and a half in specie, the average of which 18a falling one, owing to the enormous payments for customs during the week. Although there were only five business days the gold receipts for dunes at the Custom House were $4,913,000. On two days, Monday ana Friday, the receipts each day .were over @ million dollars. With this loss in specie there is a loss of about half a million in greenbacks. The banks, in view of tnis loss of reserve, have been compelled to contract their loans, and the itabilities show a total decrease of $4,379,000, The statement compares with its predecessor as follows:— Decrease in legal tena 577,400 An analysis of the above shows that the surplus of the banks has been decreased $1,180,075 and now stands at the low figure of $2,563,025.

DRY GOODS MARKET. Cotton goods have been specially active during the Week in the package trade, and the cotton goods Market geasraily is so strong that the demana throughout 1s in excess of the supply. The woollen goods department does not sympathize with this Strength, a constant over-supply tending to keep pices below the desirable level. Brown sheetings and shirtings have advanced in standards to 16c., and that this price wiil be sus- tained is shown by the barrenness of tne market, In fine brown the receipts fall largely below the demand, and a further advance is predicted on some sides, Bleached sheetings and shirtings are very active in grades from 18¢c. and below, while the finer quait- wes have only @ fair movement. The New York eee advanced to 22c,, and the Amoskeag, 4-4, 163.0. Drilis have advanced to 15)¢¢., and the movement continues good, Cottonades are fairly active. Hampdon R&R 1s quoted at 37<c.; Verona at 22)<c.; Cable at 273¢¢.; jour-yard plaid at 200.; do, plain at 19¢.; eight- ounce extra blue at 35¢c, Tickings are Moving Wellin all lines, prices re- Teaining unchanged, Stripes are improving in activity, and stocks are Well reduced, Whittenton Ais quoted at 17c.; do. B, 166.; do, C, 183gc.; American, 124¢c. & 13340, Prints have moved in large quantities by the package, and receipts are well kept down. Tne distributing trade 18 not so satisfactory, and so far only new effecis are selected. ‘There are reasons for predicting an advance, though no certainty can be artived at at present, Dress goods are moving well, and the market Is closely sold up. ‘The styles of American dress goods are constantly Improving, and both production and demand have increased within the year, Woollen goods have improved, and there has been alarge movement irom first hands, and indi- cations give reason to hope for better prices. Cloths are in good request for oest and middle grades, With an upward tendency. Doeskins are in Inoderaie request and prices growing stronger, and coatings and meltons are inquired for, cloth-faced is and Scotch styles being preferrea, Repeliants are being looked up, though present transactions are smail. Cumberland is quoted at $1.36, Lewiston at $1 26, and the Lebattos at $1 20, with @ prospect of higher prices. Satinets are more inquired tor, though there 1s no special activity. Kentucky jeans are in good request, the fine heavy goods having advanced 1234 per cent. Souta- west doeskins show an advance to 60c, and orders are placed shead. Flanneis are moving fairly, considerable inquii belvg made (or operas. F and U fiaunels are eld firmly at 60c. The suppiy is small and the demand good, and therefore prices must improve. Fancy cassimeres have changed hands to a i: extent, but prices have not warrantea any great profit on the same. Shawis are improving In demand to an extent very encouraging to manufacturers, the styles being desirabie and attractive. $4 75 per Death of Patrilla—Post-Mortem tion. In last Friday’s HERALD was a detatled ana com. plete report of the terrible stabbing affray which Ocourred the day previous in the rear yard of the tenement house 87 Mulberry street, during which Giovanni Patrilla, an lialian, was fearfully stabbed in the abdomen and several other parts of the body by @ murderous-iooking knife in the hands of Mi- chei Rosa, atso an Italian. Patrilla was forthwith carried to the Centre street Hospital and placea under the care of Surgeons Vandewater and Amable, who rendered every possible aid to the vicum, but with little or no hope of saving his life, Patrilla could not be rallied, and, sinking gradually, died at @ late hour on Saturday night. Coroner Young was notified and took cuarge of the case. The friends being very soxious to re- move the remains of deceased to his late resi- dence, Deputy Coroner Marsh made @ post-mor- tem examination on the body and found @ stab wound of the abdomen (le{t side), the steel penetrating to the depth of several inches, severing the membranes lining the intestines. This wound caused death. The other wounds, although severe, were not necessarily fatal. In the opinion of the medical tlemen peritonitis, the result of @ stab wound of the abdomen, was the canse of aeath, The Coroner's investigation will not take place for two or three days.
