GLASGOW . —Exexjution of Doolan and Redding . —On Friday , May Udh , pursuant to tenteuce , the extreme penalty of the law was carried into execution upon DennisDoolan and Patrick liedd ' m ^; for the murder of John Green , ganger on the Edinburgh Railway . Tbe great interest excited by this melancholy affair brought vast multitudes from & distance to see the unfortunate men expiate their offence near to the place where the murder was perpetrated . As early as five o ' clock on Friday , the people began to assemble ia thousands in front of the gaol , and the numbers kept swelling until the prisoners were brought out . Judging from what was passing-in front of the prison , no one would have thoncht there was going to be a public execution
all appeared to be glee and merriment , and the writer of this -actually heard jokes passing , and sportive allusions made to the doom and approaching sufferings of two fellow-mortals about to be sent from this world to another . A little after seven o ' clock in the morning troops of dragoons , posses of police , and one or two Email companies of foot soldiers aad artillerymen , came to prevent any outbreak on the part of the overwhelming multitudes assembled Several carriages were coming at this period ; one was a long black vehicle , with seats across for tho unfortunate prisoners , and Bishop Murdoch , and one or two ministers of the Catholic religion ; and a number of other carriages for the Sheriff ^ , magistrates , and executioner , all stood in front of the
gaol . At eight o'clock tbe prisoners came oat of their cells , took ^ their seats in the carriage without any assistance , and sat seemingly indifferent to what was passing . Redding , on first coming out , was pale and agitated , but with an effort regained his composure . The procession Laving been formed , and every thing got into a state of readiness , the assemblage began to move to th * place of execution , aboHt four miles distant , to the place called Crossbill . As tho mass of human beuigs moved from the gaol up Highsvreet till it got out of town , the press was Teally awful ; the windows above and the streets below were swarming with men , women , and children , all
anxion 3 to see the prisoners ; hot was the Toad much thinned till the procession began to approach the place of suffering . Redding , all the while , seemed to sit with his head bowed and indifferent to everything passing ; Doolan remained quite firm till he got beyond Bishops-bridge , and be ^ an to approach the place of execution—his whole frame shook , and he turned as pale as death . When within a mile of the scaffold , several dragoons from Edinburgh , who had been guarding the place all night , now rode and met the procession , going along with it to the place , formed a large circle round the fatal scaffold . The place chosen Tor ihe gallows was a rising ground at a short distance from tbe Kirkintilloch road on the right , situate bet ween the road and the bridge where
Green lost his life . Right below the scaffold , in the direction of Glasgow , was a regular declivity , from the base of which the instrument of death was easily seen ^ beyond thi ? , in the same direction , ihe road took a gradual rise , forming an amphitheatre , v . b . erc thousands upon thousands saw the melancholy scene . Between nine and ten the prisoners arrived at the scaffold , where was a temporary erection , in which the finisher of the law pinioned the prisoners ; to this they yielded with the greatest firmness , and then took their stand under the fatal beam . Bishop Murdoch accompstnkd them to the drop , and ptayed most fervently for the unfortunate men , and in this exercise they engaged like men on the threshold . of another world . Their religious exercises having
been gone through , the executioner began to do his duty , by putting a cap over Reddmg ' s face , which hid " been provided for the occasion ; the unfortunate niin ' s shirt collar was then put dewu , and the fatal noose placed round his neck . Doolan ' s eye ^ a ^ stedfastly fixed upon his companion while the preparations were making . Just bciore the cap was palled over Doalin ' s facej—the following expressions in prajer escaped his lips—and with a strong-voice . 0 God , be merciful to me ; forjive ray sits ; Lord Jesus Christ , into thy hands I com mend my spirit ; Lord Jesus , receive my soul . " Everything being in a state of readiuess , the signal was pat into Rsdding ' s hand . The prisoners stood a few seconds , as if making their last appeal to
Heaven for mercy , when the handkerchief drop ! ; the bolt was instantly drawn . Redding died almost without a struggle . Dylan ' s sufferings were great ; the noose had got shifted , and for four minutes his agonies were horrific . The bodies , after hanging forty minutes , were taken down , and buried within the precincts of the gaol . The drolleries indulged in upon the road showed how little capital punishment does- towards awing the maltitpde , and making salutary impressions upon the minds of the people . L ? t us hope that these disgusting scenes will not be repeated—that poverty , the superinducing cause of every crime , shall vanish before mild and equal laws ; and that peace , contentment , and eqnallaws shall be the portion , as they are the birthright , of every inhabitant of this country .
The Co . vncr Harriet Longley . —Tr . e Jury who ' , tried her for the murder of her child recommended ; her to the . mercy of the Court , and the Jud ^ e ori dered sentence of death to be recorded against her , i intimating that he thought the ends of justice would be foliy answered by her undergoing a punishment ; short of death . A lew days since an w-ier was re-\ ceived at Newgate directing the convict to be transj ported for the term of ten years . The unfortunate ! woman still remains in Newgate , where she his con' dncied herself with propriety , but shortly will be ; removed , in order to be sent abroad by the next vessel that , sails with female convicts .
, ' CAKZiISXJL—The Asti-Cor * Law League dei FiuxtD is the Tow . \ Coocil . '—Afew dajsago , at a i meeting of this body , ilr . Alderman Ross brought ) forward his promised motion for a total repeal of j the Cora "Laws , There was an unusually lari ; e at-, ter . danse of members present on the occasion , anu f considerable GifFerence of opinion prevailed on the 1 subj > et . Mr .-Ross made a long and tedious speech , ; full of quotations and false data , from which he erroneousiy reasoned—drawing the most groundless ' and extravagant conclusions ; he concluded by i moving" That the Town Council of Carlisle do \ petition Parliammt for a to : al repeal of the Corn , Lavrs . " Mr . James Steel , Editor of the Carlisle ' J $ \ imal , seconded the motion , but reserved anything : he had to ' say until any other gentleman might ad-, dress the meeting . Mr . Alderman Mounsey moved
\ \ an amendment to the effect— That the Council 1 ought not to interfere in the matter ; but lot i a public meeting be called , aad the sense of the ; town be taken on the subject . '' As Mr . iJounsey's amendment Tras about to be put , Me Ellweod ¦ Brockbark proposed a second amendment to Mr . , Ross ' s motion ,, to the effect that the Council approved of the Ministerial measure for an alteration in the Cotn Laws . Here some very angry discus-; sion took , place , Mr . Railton and others charging ' Mr . Sieel . with , deceiving the Council on a former : occasion , by giving it to understand that they only wished for irquiry . Mr . Steel indignantly denied ! the charge ; but which was dis ' . inctly reiterated by ' severs 1 members of the C-joncil . The . Mayor then put Mr . Mounsey ' s amendment , when it appeared ! as btlow : —
Mr . Mounsey s amendment 11 Against it 15 Majority ... 4 Mr . Brockbank ' s amendment 17 Against it ... 5 Majority against Mr . Ross ' s motion ... 8 This is a very important decision , for it shows the feeiiugs of the members of the Town Council ; and that they axe not to be misled by the mis-statements of the anti-Corn Law League , of which Mr . R 053 , the Mayor , and some others form a part . They dare not call a public meeting , for they know they would be beaten .

An Epidemic has been for some weeks raging among the soldiers of the first battalion of Grenadier Guards , stationed in the Tow ^ r , which has in some instances proved fatal , and not less than eighty men have been' sent to the Military Hospital at Westminster . It resembles influenza , . . - Lord Melbourne and thb Bot JoNKS .- ' -At Queen-square polios office , on Saturday , William John DonovaD , described as a bricklayers labourer , was charged with' exhibiting a placard on the footway in front of the House ofLordB , to the annoyance and obstruction of tbe passengers . The : charge was made under the 8 th section of the 54 : h clause of the ¦ -I -ii , . _ . . . ¦¦¦¦¦¦ - i .
new police act . Police constable Carter , 151 B , stated that about half-past four o ' clock , he was on duty in front of the House of Lords , when he observed the defendant parading up and down , in the front of a House with a board , on which was a p lacard , reflecting npon the character of Lord Melbourne . The defendant ' s desire appeared to be that of attracting the attention of the Lords to his placard . He then took defendant into custody . —The placard was exhibited in court , and was as follows : — " Extract from Jones's Peep into tho Pala « e : — 1 There certainly is , my Lord , a vast majority of palace dinners in favour of your Lordship over mysel , for on making reference to the pa'ace circular I find from Jane , 1837 , the time when her Majesty ascended the throne , to the present time , your Lordship has taken pot luck with her Majesty 8 C 7 times ; myself four times ; or , to placo it thus : —Viscount
Melbourne , 867 dinners ; E . Jones , 4 ; majority for Lord Melbourne , 863 f—thus giviug your Lordship a clear working majority of 863 dinners over me . ' London : Pattie , 4 , Brydges-street . " Mr . Burrell ( to the defendant)—Have you anything to say ? The defendant said he was a poor labouring man , and glad to earn a shilling . He knew nothing of the laws ; he had been employed by Mr . Pattie , of Brydges-street , to carry the placard , and was told to go down to the Houses of Parliament . Mr . Burrell said , defendant had Committed an offence punishable under the police act , and he could not do otherwise than convict him in the mitigated penalty of five shillings , or in default seven day ' s imprisonment . The defendant being unable to pay the fine , was locked up , but in the afternoon Mr . Pattie , the publisher , came down to the court , and paid it for him .
The validity of baptism has been decided by Sir Herbert Jenner , in the Arches Court . An action had been brought by Mr . Cliff , an inhabitant of Gedney , in the county of Lincoln , against the Rev . Thomas Sw « et Escott , vicar of the parish , for having refused to bury the corpse of the prosecutor ' s infant daughter . The proceeding was instituted under the 68 th Canon , whereby it is decreed , that" No minister shall refuse to bury any corpse that is brought into the church or churchyard , convenient warning having been previously given to him ; and if he shall refuse to bury tho same ( except the party deceased were denounced , excotumunieated for some grievous crime , &c . ) he shall be suspended by the Bishop of his diocese from his ministry for the space of three
months . " Tho defence was , that " in the Rubric of the Book of Common Prayer , which was part and parcel of the stature 13 th and 14 ch Cnarles II ., c . 4 ., iu the or Jer for the burial of tbe dead , it was ^ jijoined that such office was not to be used for any that are unbaptizsd , excommunicated , or having laid violent hands upon themselvb-s ; that the deceaseti baling been baptized by a Wesleyan Methodist minister , any rite of baptism performed by him was null and void ; and that the child waa therefore uubaptized in the eye of the law and the church . " Sir Herbert Jenner , in a speech which ocoupied between
four and five hours in the delivery , decided that baptism by a Dissenting clergyman was tantamount to lay baptism ; that Mr . Esoott was bound , according to the cauons and constitution of the Church of England to bury the ciiild ; and that by refusing to do so he had subjected himself' to ecclesiastical censure * . It had , Sir Herbert said , with a most praiseworthy and benevolent spirit been decared , that the party proceeding was only desirous that Mr . Escott should be admonished , anil not cauonically puuiehed ; but the Cuurt had no discretion in the case : Mr . Escort was therefore sentenced to be suspended for three months , and to pav the costs .
Arrival of the Gkeat Western . —Bristol , Mat 14 . —The Great Western arrived at Kingroad from New York this evening at eight o ' clock , having left New York at two o ' clock on the 1 st inst ., thus completing her home voyage in thirte 2 n days . Her outward voyage was compj-ted iu fourteen davs aud a half , having arrived at New York on the 23 rd of April . She has brought home ninety-seven passengers , aud some despatches for Government , but no specie . We have received by Jier New York papers to the 1 st inst ., but we regret to say that up to the time of her departure nothing whatever waa known of the President , although news had reached New York from Havannah , aad other West India , islands , to the loth of April . In the House of Assembly for
tne S ; ate of New "i ork an important debate upon the case of Mr . M'Leod had taken place on the 19 . h ult ., on ihe motion of a Mr . Houiaun ( a decided Locofoco ) lor the release of Mr . M'Leod , Mr . Homann holding it to be inconsistent with the national honour to continue Mr . M'Leod in prison after the Government of Great Britain had taKen the affair of the Caroline upon thomselve ? . Mr . M'Lood however , still continued in prison at . the time tho Great Western sailed , and nothing definitive was known of the negoeiatioas between the United States Government and that of Great ^ Britain , nor would anything definitive be done iu the matter until thu extra session of Congress . It was , however , known that a good understanding .-ub .-isted between tho organs of : he two Governments at Washington on the subject . Congress was to be conveued ' on the
31 st of May , and the eye 3 of the whole country , it was said , would turn in anxious expectation on ihe first movements of the dominant party . The new President was going on well , aud tlio impression was becoming general that he wuu-d infuse imo every branch of the public service a degree of r-ntTgy and integrity that had net been seea since t . io early days of the republic , occupying , as he did , a position independent of all parties . In Canada a strong opposition was growing up against Lord Sydeuhatn , and the Canadians were iu a state of considerable excitement at the proposed alteration of the timber duties iu the Imperial Parliament . A meeting of the commercial interest had been heid at Quebec , and strong resolutions a ^ ains :, it passed , iviih whichtlieybad waited on the Governor General . Ldnion p'ipcr .
Mistruss and Maid . —At Hatton Garden policeoffice , 011 Saturday , Ann Horweil , a re . ~ pecty . bly attired woman , who was described in the police ¦ bee ; : as being married , and residing at No . 11 , Park-terrace , Camden-town ; and Hannah Milli ^ au , a young woman , who was described as htr s-. rvunt , were placed at the bar , before Mr . Greenwood , charged by Sergeant Grey , No . 12 , G . division , with being drujjk , fighting , and creating a disturbance . — Grey having been sworn , slated that , yesterday morning , about one o ' clock , he was attracted by u noise in Sninton-street , Gray ' s-iun-road , and , on proceeding thither , he found the prisoners fiahting together , ililligan knocked Horweil dosvi ) , and
rolled her in the kennel ; and , on HorwelL getting up , she belaboured her with her parasol . Witness separated them , and threatened that he would take them to the station-house if they did uot go homo . They left the spot ; but , in a short time , they returned , and commenced fighting again , when , with the assistance of policeman 39 G ., he took them to the station-house , when a bottle of gin was found in the possession of Horweli , wno sa . id she wa ? a respectable married woman , residing at No . 11 , Park-terrace , Camden-towB , and that Milligan was her servant . —Constable 39 G . corroborated this evidence , and produced the bottle of gin ( a finger-beer bottle ) . In ? pector Penny hero stated that ihe mistress was well known . She had been in
custody a month ago for being drunk , and she was then bailed out . She had also been at Islington stationhouse , under singular circumstances . —Horwell : I certainly was in custody about last Christmas . I had a party of friends , and took too much wine . ( A laugh . )—Mr . Greeuwood : What have you to say to being druck and fighting with ycur servaut , as yow call her 1 Horwell—I went to see my husband off to New Orleans yesterday morning , and I received an invitation to take some win-.-at the docks ; I took my serrant with me , and we certainly did take more
thau agreed with us , and we quarrelled on our way home . Inspector Penny—She told me that she had a " tasting order , " to taste wine at the decks , and she was so fond of " Malaga" that sho took too much of it . ( A laugh . ) Mr . Greenwood—How do you account for the possession of the gin , after " tasting " much " Malaga ! " ( A laugh . ) Horwell—We called upon our baker on our way home , and he gave me the gin . Mr . Greenwood—Such conduct is not very reputable—drunk and fighting at such an hour in the morning . Inspector Penny expressed his suspicion that Mrs . Horweli and her servant were no bettor
than they should be , and that the former kept a house of a certain description . She had been seen about at late hours iu the Pentonville-road . Mrs .

A Bit of BcLtYiRs ;—The Vindicator , an Iristi paper , jays : — "Once again , and again and agaio , we call upon the popple of Ulster , as men of shrewd sense , as men ofthe world , to consider , looking at their interests alone , whether they will rather pull different ways , like greyhounds in couples , for irisoient , ignorant , plundering England , than pull together as one man , for the elevation of their common country . " Disturbances in Russia . —According to the Augsburgh Gazette , some disorders had broken out in the Government of Moscow , caused by the dearness of food , resulting from a succession of bad harvests . The same paper states that the differences on Church matters between Russia and the Papal Sea had been , settled .

East Losdon Park . —On Tuesday week , Mr . E . J . Stanley moved a resolution to the effect that a sum , the produce of the sale of York House , with the interest accruing thereon , now vested in Exchequer bills , should be expended in tho purchase of a royal park , to belaid out for the accommodation of the publio in the neighbourhood of Spitalfields . The particular site fixed upon was that piece of laud called Bonner ' s fields , containing 290 acres . Germanism . —Germanism is " going it" at a more furious rate than ever . At the Court and the camp , in fashion and literature , the transcondeutal pretensions of these whiskered hordes are thrust upon us . A German newspaper in London , it appears , is tho next nuisance to be endured by the publio ; as if German principles aud habits wore not already sufficiently propagated among an English community .
Such a speculation could , of course , only be entered into upon the supposition that there is Germanism enough amongst us to make it pay , for the idea , of Germans doing anything from disinterested motives would be utterly ridiculous . As to a German paper being taken in by the vagabondising personages who infest this metropolis , its projectors are much too shrewd to form any such rash expectations . They rely mainly , doubtless , on tho amiable propensity of native noodles to patronise foreign talent . Yet we mi ^ ht be content , one would imagine , with German singers , German musicians , and German humbugs of other kinds too numerous to mention . We might have hoped to keep the press pure ; but it seems as if the faoiiionable German infection of the day was to spread over the surface of English society . —Satirist .
Single Stick . —It would seem that this old English athletic game , for which the county of Somerset waa once so famed , has not been entirely relinquished . On Monday , two matches came off , at the Three Crowns , Walcot , between tho celebrated Simon Stone , and the well-known Uriah Wall , for £ 25 aside ; and between Henry Dove and Israel Hole , for £ 10 aside . The . game between the two former was most scientifically played . Stone was the winner in the third bout . Hole was the winner
in the eighth bout . Also a match between two Batheaston men , named Beasley and Sweet , which was won by the latter . Stone and Wall then commenced play again , but seveu bouts having been played without any decisive re ? ult , Wall " gave his head' ( as it is technically termed ) to Stone , and he was accordingly declared the conqueror . In liko manner , Dove also " gave the head" to Hole , who was declared the victor . A considerable number of spectators assembled on the occasion . —Bath Chronicle . 1

The Waldegrave Affair . —There is a strange ** - > Ty abroad , relative to the outrage for which Lord Waldograve and Capt . Duff are now confined in the Quten s Bench : It is said that one of the parties eouiJ , without any difficulty , have proved an alibi , but that it could only hare oeeu done at the expense of a young aristocrat , whose orthodox prospects would have been endangered . The awkwardness of a possible exposure , it is said , was the real reason ot u . late itT-ignation of a seat in the House of Commons . —Chronicle . Mr . Hethorington , a prisoner in the Queen ' s Bench , complains of the indulgence shown to Lord Waldegravc in being permitted to promenade with his lady between the gates ; and he a ^ ks whether he and hia fellow prisoners are not entitled 10 a similar indulgence ? He adds , that the " liberal" donations to tho poor prisoners were confiued to a solitary 2 s . 6 d . dropped into tho poor-box by a gentleman who accompanied Lady Waldegrave when she first visited the prison .
EXTRAOBDINAEY FlELDS OF ICE IN TJJB ATLANTIC . —Tho following letter , which will be found very interesting , waa given to us by the commander of tho Great Western on boarding that vessel : r" Great Western steam-ship , Bristol Chancel , May 14 , 1841 . —Sir , —Under the impression that ice , to the extent it has been seen this year , has never before been heard of in these latitudes , I give you tbe following particulars for the information of your readers : —On Sunday , April 18 , the ship steering west , at six p . m . first saw one iceberg on tho starboard bow ; at 7 30 , passed it ; at that time , four or five others in sight ; at 9 15 , passed- several small pieces of ice—slowed the engines . In a few minutes after , the ship was surrounded with light field ice
which appeared similar to a field- I ran through on the 11 th February , 1839 : this induced me to go slowly , with the hopes of getting through , as I had done on that occasion , but , by 9 30 , finding it became closely packed , aud much thicker , prudence dictated our escape by the same channel we had entered . I then ' stopped , and attempted to get the ship ' s head to the ra-slward by turning a-head and astern until there was room for her to come round ; in the course of this operation , the ship had occasionally ( at least ) two strokes heelgiven by cither wheel passing over large masses of ice . At 10 15 , succeeded in getting tho ship ' s head to the eastward , and by 11 entirely clear ; from that time went slowly , passing several icebergs ; the night at times very clear , the aurora
borealis very bright . At 3 30 a . m . of the 19 th , again got embayed in the ice , stopped , hauled short round on our keel , and Steered out E by S ; coasting the ice for five or six miles ; 4 40 , kept her to the westward running through innumerable icebergs until 8 30 , when we passed the last iceberg and point of the field ice . When the sun arose the ico was visible as far as the eye could reach in an unbroken line from NE byE by the northward to H , W by W ,, at tbe tame time icebergs innumerable in every direction , forming one of the most maguificent sights'I ever beheld . The first iceberg we saw was in Itit . 43 , long . 48 . 30 . and this laat ia lat . 42 . 20 , long ; 60 . 0 , I am quite sure there was an unbroken field of that extent , and from what I beard from Captain Baffly , of the American packet ship United States , I Have no doubt the field , ice extended , with'Very little breakto lat 40 0
, . « , where Captain Baiily fell ia with it on the morning of the 11 th . Several other ships also fell in with it in the same longitude , and were completely stopped , giving them an opportunity of killing seals , whioh were on it in great numbem . Some of the icebergB I estimate a little ( if at all ) less than a mile long , arid from 150 to 200 feet high this field of ice was in large masses , some of them not less than twenty feet equart . by six feet thick or more . The temperature et the water , when within two miles of the first iceberg seen , fell suddeply ft ovi 50 degrees to 36 degreeB ; air , 40 degrees to 36 degrees . When in the ice the water was 25 degrees , air 28 degrees ; during the remainder of tho night and following morning the water was not higher than 30 degrees , nor the air higher than 32 degrees . Immediately after passing the last ice the water became 35 degrees , and tbe air 42 degrees . I am , Sir , &c ., James Hoskin , captain . " —London paper .

In less than ten minutes after the outbreak of the fire the whole building was one mass of flame , and the greatest fears were entertained for the safety ofthe houses on the left hand side of the street . By the united exertions of the firemen , assisted by a good supply of water , the flames were confined to Mr .

Pegf : succeeded in currying off by force the astonished wight , and left the hapless Nancy to enjoy the benefits of single blessedues 3 , not , indeed , until the windows of her friend ' s house had been left minus divers panes of glass , and her own fair person presented with a few tokens of affectionate recognition , in the shape of black eyes . Peggy , in the meantime , thinking that not a moment was to be lost , managed matters so well , that Pat allowed hor to make him a happy man , and herself an honest woman . The case and cross-case being fully heard by the bench , both were dismissed , Mrs . Teg « y M'Cana having to pay over to the less fortunate Nancy Walsh all costs . — Vindicator .

He has a clear complexion—a bald , open forehead—is also of fair height , and well-proportioned . His hair , which is not of very thick growth , is of a light sandy colour . He has a pair of small sparkling eyes , that , when adorned by bis spectacles , seem to penetrate every object on which they may be rivetted ; aud , upou
the whole , he may be described as a geuteel , welldressed , good-looking , middle aged gentleman . We would suppose him about forty years of age . He is a bachelor , by the bye , and , being free aud affable in his ma , aner 3 , he would doubtless prove a very agreeable companion for any marriageable Jemule Chartist , who was fortunate enough to inspire him with the tender passion . But ho is not a man to be cozened out of his own opinion , or to be turned aside from the path he has chalked out for himself for any ordinary consideration . He is a man , too , who seems to look to two sides of a picture , and to look well before he leaps . "

As we could learn the particulars , it seems that Mr . Tiernan , an ojd and respectable planter of Point Coupee , had a sum
of money swlen from him while on board the Clipper , aad \ 60 oir'ascertained tfyat it was taken by a yellow boy belonging to him , some fourteeu years of age . H , e did nothing to the boy at the time , but threatened him with ' a' severe flogging on reaching Point -Coupee . Shortly < after Mr . T . i went t to his berth , lay down , and was soon asleep . The hoy , probably instigated by the fear of future punishment , got a large butcher's knife , went' to his master ' s state room , and stabbed him twice in the throat , inflicting severe , and it was feared mortal , wounds . He then fkd to the bow ofthe boat , and , as the men were approaching to secure him , jumped overboard , and was seen no more . We learned' the particulars at Donaldsonville on Sunday evening laat . at which time it was 7
feared that Mr . Tiernan would not , survive . —A ?!* Orlemns Paper . ;' ' , i ' BH notorious Vefsel the Malefc ' Anhel arrived at Baltimore on Tuesday , from Rio Janeiro , under command of Lieut . Ogden , of the U ^ S ; Navy . The crew . have all been arrested , examined , and committed on a charge ef piracy . Joseph Nunez , the captain , escaped at Bahia , and was not ' retaken . Five young men are now in gaol ai Brooklyn , New York , for committing a most atrocious rape on a married woman , in Myrtle-lane . They were of a gang of fifteen , and strong hopes are entertained that those now at large will soon be secured . The poor woman , we understand , is dead . No punishment can be too aereae for these inhuman rascals .
