GLASGOW . —Execctios op Doolan and Rbddiks . —Oa Friday , May 14 th , pursuant Vj sentenoe , the extreme penalty of the law was carried into execution upon Dennis Doolan and Patrick Redding , for the murder of John Green , ganger on the Edinburgh Railway . The great interest excited by this melancholy affair brought rast multitudes from a 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 in 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 thought there tras going to be a public execution
all appeared to be glee and merriment , and the writer of mis actually heard jokes passing , and eportire I allusions made to the doom and approaching sufferinjjs of two fellow-mortals about to be sent from this world to another . A litile after serec o ' clock in the morning troops of dragoons , posses of police , and one or two Email companies of foot soldiers and artillerymen , came to present any outbreak on the part of the orerwhelming multitudes assembled . i Several carriages were owning at this period ; one \ was a long black vehicle , with seats across for the ! unfortunate prisoners , and Bishop Murdoch , aud one ! or two ministers of the Catholic religion ; and a j number of other carriages for the Sheriffs , magis-I trates , and executioser , all stood in front of the
> ga . ol . At eight o dock the prisoners canw out of ¦! their cells , took th « ir seats in the carriage without ; any assistance , and sat seemingly inaiffereat to what I was passing . Redding , on first coming out , was I pale and agitated , but with an « ffort regained . his composure . The proeesswn 1 a ^ ing been formed , and every thing gat into a state of readi « es 3 , the assemblage be ^ au to j move to the place of execution , about four miles dis- \ tant , to the place called Crossbill , As the mass of ! ¦ human beiags moved from the gaol up High- ; street till it got out of town , the press was really i awful ; the windows above and the streets below were swaxmvag . with men , women , and children , all anxious to see the prisoners ; nor was the road much thinned till the procession began to approach tLe place of suffering . Redding , all the while , seemed - to at with his head bowed and indifferent to
everyi thing passing ; Doolan remained quite firm till he ; got beyond Bishops-bridge , mnd bejjan to approach the place « f execution—his whole frame shook , and i he turned as pale as death . When within a mile of ; the scaifvrtd , several dragoows from Edinburgh , who j had bees . guarding the p ' aee all night , now rode nud j met the procession , going ikxag with it to the place , ; formed a" large circle round the fatal scaffold . The ! place -chosen for the gallows was a rising ground at i a ehort distance from th * Kirkintilloch road on tfee ! rigi > t ,-situa : e between the road and the bridge where ! Green lost his life . Rigfrt below the scaffold , in the ! diK > ction of Glasgow , vies a regular declivity , from 1 the-tase of which , the inssrument of death was easily I seens beyond this , in the same direction , the road ! toek a gradual rise , forcing an amphitheatre , where ! tfeonsaods upon thousands saw the melancholy
! scene . Between nine aud ten the prisoners arrived i is the scaffold , where was a temporary erection , in ! which the finisher of the law pinioned the prisoners ; ! to this they yielded with the greatest firsifress , . and { then took their stand rader the faial baas . Bishop Murdoch accompanied them to the drop , * Jtd prayed I most "fervently for the 'unfortunate men , * ad in this ! exercise they engaged-like m : n on the threshold of ! another world . Their religious exercises having been -gone through , the executioner begao to do his ; duty , by putting a cap over Reddiug ' s face , which ' : had * been provided for the occasion ; ihe Hufortunate mau '« shirt collar was then put down , and the fatal
i noose placed round his neck . Doolxn's eye wai -stedfastly fixed upon his companion whilf i the preparations were making . Just bc- 'brt the cap was pulled ever Doolan ' s face—tie fellow ' i ing expressions iu prayer escaped his iips—and witi ! a strong voice . " 0 Sod , be merciful to me ; forgive i ray sins ; Lord Jesus Christ , into tby hands I com-! mend my spirn ; i ^ ord Jesus , receive my soul . ' ' ¦ . Everything being in a state of rfadinees , the si ^ aaS ; was put into Rsdding ' s band . The prisoners stood i a few seconds , as if miking their last appeal to > Heaven for merej ^ when xhe hauJksrchief dropt ' the bolt was instantlv drawn . Reddintj died almost
I wrtbeat a struggle . Dylan ' s sufferings yreie great ; : ' the no * jse had got shifted , aad for four minutes his ] agonies were harrinc . Tne bodies , after ha » si ° g j forty minutes , were taken down , and buried within ! the precincrs of the gaol . The droilerie 3 indulged ; in npon toe road showed how little capital | puaisbment doss towards awing the multitude , \ and making salutary impressions upon the minds of the people . L ? t U 3 hope that these disgusting ' ¦ ¦ « oenes will not be repeated—that poverty , the super' inducing cause of every crime , shall vanish before i mild and equal laws ; and that peace , contentment , j and equal laws . shall be the portion , as they are the ¦ birthright , of every inhabitant of this country .
The Co . vricr Hi ^ RiET Lo . vgxkt . —Tne Jury wno tried her for the Eiurdtr of her child recommended her to the mercy of the Court , and the Jud # c ordered sentence of death to be recorded a ? ain ; t her , iE : imating that be tlought ihe ends of justice would fce fully answered by her undergoing a pumshmen ; short of death . A few days since an erder was received at Novgate directing the convict to be transported for tiie tefra of ten years . The unfortunate woman still remains in Is ' ew ^ aie , where she ha .- conducted herself wi : h propriety , but shortly will be removed , in order to be s ^ nt abroad by the nt-i vesi ^ i ihs : sails with female convicts .
CAEllSUEL—Tue Anti-Corn Law League befeaildinthe ' Towx Cocncil !—Afew da > " 53 ^ o , at a meeting of this body , Mr . Alderman Ross brought forward his premised motion for a total repeal of the Coru Laws . . There was an unusually lar A e attendance of members present on the occasion , and considerable oilference oi opmion prevailed oa the subject . Mr . Ros 3 made a Iob ^ and tedious speech , full of quotations and false data , from which he erroEecusIy reasoned—drawiDg the most gruundieis and extravagant conclusions ; he concluded by moviD £ "Thai the Town Council of Carlisle do peiitiou P ^ riiamtnt for a to . al repeal of the Corn Laws . " Mr . James Steel , Editor of the Carlisle Journal , seconded the motion , but reserved anything he had to say until any oiher gentleman might address the meeting . Mr . Alderman Mounsey moved
an amendment to the effect—'" That the Council ought not to interfere in the matter ; but let a public meeting , be called , and the sense- of the town be taken on the subject . '' As Mr . Mounsey's amendment iras- abuut to be put , Mr . tllvvood Brockbank proposed a second amendment to Mr . Ross ' s motion , to the effect that the Council approved of tne Ministerial measure for an aliera'ion in ; he Corn Laws . Here some very angry discussion took place , Mr . Railtcn and others charging Mr . Steei with deceiving the Council on a former occasion , by giving it to understand that they only wished for inquiry . Mr . Steel indignantly denied the charge ; but which was distinctly reiterated by several members of the Council . The 2 V ' ayor then put Mr . Mounsey's amendment , when n appeared as btiow : —
Mr . Mounsey ' s amendment 11 Against it 15 Majority ... 4 Mr . Brockbauk ' s amendment 17 Against it 9 Jlajority against Mr . Iio ? s's motion ... 8 This is a very important decision , for it shows the feelings of the members of the Town Council ; and ihai they are not to be misled by the mis-statements cf the anti-Corn Law League , of which Mr . Ro ~ s , tho Mayor , and some others form a part . They dare not call a public meeting , for they ktosv they would be beaten .

The defendant's desire appeared to bo that ; of attracting the attention of the Lords to his pla-I card . He then took defendant into custody . —The placard was exhibited ia court , and was as follows
; . ! j i — " Extract from Jones ' s Peep into the Palace : — ' There certainly is , my Lord , a vast majority of •; palace dinners in favour of your Lordship over my-; sel , for on making reference to the palace circular ; I find from June , 1 SS 7 , the time when her Majesty ; ascended the throne , to the present time , your Lord' ship has taken potiuck with her Majesty 8 G 7 times ; mys « lf foar times ; or , to place it thus : —Visconnt .

Tss validity of baptism 'has been decided by Sir Herbert Jenner , in the Arches Court . An * ct » n had feeen brought by Mr . -Cliff , an inhabitant of Gedney , in the county of Lincoln , against the Rev . Thomas Sweet Escott , vtcar of the parish , for having refased to bury the corpse of the prosecutor ' s infant duughter . The proceeding was instituted under the 58 th Canon , whereby it is uecr-. ed , that" No raiaister 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 the sums < except the party deceased were denounced , excdaaumuicated for some grievous crime , &c . ) he shall fee suspended by the Bishop of his diocese from his ministry for tho space of three
months . " Tho defeiwe was , that " in the Rubric of the Book of Common Prayer , which was part aud parcel of the statut-e 15 th and 14 th diaries II ., c . 4 ., in the order for the burial ot" the dead , it was euj jiued that such office was not to be used for any that are unbaptiud , exowumuuicated , or haviug laiJ violent hands upon themselves ; that the deceased having bwa baptized by a Wesleyau Methodist minister , any rite of baptism performed by him was null and void ; and that the child wa 3 therefore unbaptized in the eye of the law and the church . " Sir Herbert Jenner , in a speech which occupied between
four and five hours iu the delivery , decided that baptism by a Dissentiug clergyman was tantamount to lay baptism ; that Mr . E-wit was beund , according to the canons and constitution of the Church oi Knglav . d to bury the child ; ami that by refusing to do so he had subjected biniaelr' to ecclesiastical censure . It had , Sir Herbert paid , with a most praiseworthy and benevolent tp ' v ' n bceu decared , that the party proceeding was only desir-. us that Mr . E » : cott should be admonished , aud not canonically puuished ; but the Court had no discretion in the case : Mr . E-coit was therefore seutt'i . oed to be suspended for three moiiths , ar . d to pay the costs .
Arrival of the Great Western . —Bristol , Mat 14 . —The Giv-at Wesiern arrived a -, 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 thirteen days . Her outward voyage was completed in fourteen davs aud a half , having arrived at New York on the 23 rd of April . She has brought home ninety-seren passengers , and some despaichea for Government , but no specie .

bailed out . She had also been at Islington stationhouse , under singular circumstauces . —Horwell : I certainly was in custody about last Christmas . I had a party of friends , and took too much wine . ( A laugh . )—Mr . Greenwood : What have you to eay to being drunk and fighting with your servant , as yon call her ? Horwell—i went to see my husband off to New Orleans yesterday morning , aj : d I received an invitation to take some wine at tha docks ; I took myserrant with me , and we certainly did take more than agreed with us , and we quarrelled on our way home . Inspector Penny—She toid me that she had a u tasting order , ' to taste wine a . tho decks , and she was so fond of " Malaga" that she took too much of it . ( A . laugh . ) Mr . Greenwood—How do you
account for the possession of the gin , af ; er " tasting " so much " Malaga ! " ( A laugh . ) Horwell—We called upon our baker on our way home , and he gave me the gin . Mr . Greenwood—Such eonduci is not very Teputable ^—drunk and fighting at such an hour in the morning . Inspector Penny expressed his suspicion that Mrs . Horwell and her Bervant were no better than they should be , and that the former kept a house of a certain description . She had been seen about at late bourB in the Pentonville-road . Mrs . Horwell ( starting with apparent astonishment ) Oh , dear ! I can assure yon lama respectable married woman , and 1 am living with my poor old mother , with her broken fiDger , in Park-terrace . Hayliss , the usher , said he knew Park-terrace , Camden-town ,
to be a most respectable place , and they ware all highly respectable houses in it . Mr . Greenwood asked the servant what she bad to say ! Servant —( looking downward)—I certainly quarrelled with mistress and we fought together , I am very sorry for it . ( Laughter . ) Mr . Greenwood said that whether they were mistress orservaut was quite immaterial ; if" she , Horwell , was mistrees ihe case was rendered more disgraceful , that she should be found drunk fighting with her servant . He would convict her ( Horwell ) in the penalty of 20 s . and Milligan in the penally of 5 i . Mrs . Horwell clasped her hands , bawled out and exclaimed , " Oh ! my God ? I hav ' nt got the money , what shall I do ; do forgive me , I pray . " Both prisoners . were locked up until their fines were forthcoming ,

Suicide . —A determined act of self-deetrnctien was lately committed b y a married woman , named Limed , residing in Maroham-street , Westminster . A lodger went to draw some water for breakfast , and looking into the water tank , saw the deceased sitting at the bottom of the tank , the water barely covering her bead . When got out she was cold and lifeless . The unfortunate woman got into the tank and deliberately sat there until she was suffocated .
A Bit op Buliyinq . —The Vindicator , an Irish paper , says : — "Once again , and again and again , we call upon the people of Ulster , as men of shrewd sense , as men of the world , to consider looking at their interests alone , whether they will rather pull different ways , like greyhounds in couples , for insolent , 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 See had been settled . This journal , as also the Suebian Mercury , announce that the French Government had at length consented to liberate Don Carlos , who was to receive an annual allowance from the Northern Courts .
Useful Hint . —A graduate , who had taken high honouis at the University , was selected , on account of his known attainments and learning , as Incumbent of a new church in a populous parish . Inexperience , however , in a most important duty led , much to the surprise of his parishioners , to a failure , which was promptly rectified by an old matter-of-fact churchwarden leaving in the vestry-room the following notec— " Rev .

East London Park . —On Tuesday week , Mr . E . J . Stanley moved a resolution to the efftct 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 the purchase of a royal park , to be laid out for the accommodation of the publio in the neighbourhood of Spitalfields . The particular site fixed upon was that piece of land called Bonner ' s fields , containing 290 acres . Germanism . —Germanism is "going it" at « more furious rate than ever . At the Court and the camp , in fashion ami literature , the transcendental pretensions of these whiskered hordes are thrust upon us . A German newspaper m London , it appears , is the next nuisance to 00 endured by the publio . ; as if German principles and habits were 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 enongh amongst us to make it pay , for the idea , of Germans doing anything from disinterested motives would be utterly ridiculous . Ae to a German paper being taken in by tho vagabondising personages who infest this metropolis , its projectors are much too shrewd to form any such rash expectations . They rely mainly , doubtless , on the 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 hoptd to keep the press pure ; but it seems as if the fa ^ uionable German infection of the day was to spread over tho surface of English society . —Satirist .
Single Stick . —It would seem that this old English avhletic game , for which the county of Somerset was once so tamed , lias not been entirely relinquished . On Monday , two matched came oif , at the Three Crowns , Walcot , beiwt'en the celebrated Simon Stone , and tho well-known Uriah Walt , for £ 25 aside ; and between Henry Dove and Israel Hole , for £ 10 aside . The game between the two former was most scientifically played . Stone war n the winut-r in the third bout . Hole was tiie winner
in the eighth bout . Also a , match between two Batheaston mon , named Beasley and Sweet , which was won by the latter . Stone and Wall then commenced play again , but 6 even boucs having been played without any decisive result , Wall " gave his head' ( as it is technically termed ) to Stone , and ho was accordingly declared the conqueror , in like manner , Dove also " gaTo the head'' to Hole , who was declared the victor . A considerable number of spectators assembled on the occasion . —Bath Chronicle . >
A Thiksty Soul . —At Union Hall , London , on Saturday , Alt Babao , a lascar , was charged with entering a brewery and drinking a quantity of beer , beside spilling a quantity of the same liquor . At an early hour in the morning , as a policeman was on dtify at PeckhaHfe he heard a noise as ho was pa ? sin ^ Berry man's Brewery , and , ou enuring , he taw the defendant , who wa-i on his hands and knoes , drinking beer out of a waste tub , which was underneath a barrel , from which tho tap-cock had been drawn , and tho porter was flowing into the vessel beneath it . The tub was flowing over ; and , when the defendant was discovered in such a situation , his excuse was , that he was thirsty , and that , having
found his way into the brewery , he was determined to make the best use of his time , and having no smaller veSiel , he pulled the tap-cock out of ono of the barrels , and filied the waste butt , out of which he drank until he was satisfied . He added that ho had no intention of stealing and carrying away any of the liquors ; and all that he wanted was to -atisfy his appetite , and hoped that he would not be punished ibij time . In reply to the magistrate , the defendant said that ho was a native of Calcutta , and wanted to go home , but could not get a passage , and he was starving about the streets . The magistrate committed the defendant for a month , as an idle and disorderly character .

It is said that one of the parties uoui'J , without any difficulty , have proved an alibi , but , that it could only have been done at the expense of a young aristocrat , whose orthodox prospects wouid have been endangered .

EXTRA 0 RD 1 NAUY FlELPS OF ICK IN THE ATLANTIC . —The following letter , which will be found very interesting , was given to us by the commander of the Great Western on boarding that vessel : — "Great Western steam-ship , Bristol Channel , May 14 , 1841 . —Sir , —Under the impression that ice , to tho extent it has been seen this year , has never bei'ore been heard of in these latitudes , I givo you tbe . iullowmg particulars for the information of your readers : —On Sunday , April 18 , the 6 hip 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 bight ; at 9 15 , passed several small pieces of ice—slowed tho 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 , findiDg it became closely packed , aud much thicker , prudence dictated our escape by tho eame channel we had entered . I then stopped , and attempted to get the ship ' s head to the eastward by taming a-head and astern until there was room for her to come round ; in the course of this operation , tie ship had occasionally ( at least ) two strokes heel &ivon by either wheel passing over large masses of ice- At 10 15 , succeeded in getting the ship's head to tho eastward , and by 11 entirely ckar ; from that time went slowly , passing several icebergs ; the night at . times very cleav , the aurora borealis very bright . At 3 30 a . m . of the 19 th , again
got embayed iu the ice , stopped , hauled short round on our keel , and steered out- E by S , coasting the ice for five or six wiles ; 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 th > ico was visible as far as the eye could reach in an unbroken line from NE by E by the northward to NW by W , at the same time icebergs innumerable in every direction , forming one of the most magnificent sights I ever beheld . The first iceberg we saw was in lat . 43 , long . 48 . 30 , and this last in lat . 42 . 20 , long , 50 . 0 . 1 am quite sure there was an unbroken field of that extent , and from what I heard from Captain Bailly , of the American packet ship United States , I have no doubt the field ioe extended , with very little break , to Jat . 40 « 0 , where Captain Bailly fell in with
it on tho morning of tne 11 th . Several othef ships also fell in with it in the same longitnde , and were completely stopped , giving them an opportunity of killing seals , which were on it in great numbers . Some of the icebergB I estimate a little ( if at ail ) Jess t&an a mile long , and from 150 to 200 feet high ; this field of ice was in large masses , some of them not less than twenty feet square by six feet thick or more . The temperature ef the water , when within two miles of the first iceberg seen , fell suddenly from 50 degrees to 36 degrees ; air , 40 degrees to 36 degrees . When in the ice the / water was 25 degrees , air 28 degrees ; during the remainder of the night and following morning the water was not higher than 30 decrees , nor the air higher than 32 degrees . Immediately after passing the last ice the water became 39 degrees , and the air 42 degrees . I am , Sir , &c , James Hoskin , captain , "—London paper .

Destructive Fire . — About twenty-five minutes to one o'clock on Monday morning , the cooperage of Mr . Bryant , in Cross-street , Biackfiiars , was discovered to be on fire : in a very short time tho engines from the Waterloo-road station and the West of England were on the spot , followed by those from WatHng-street , &o . 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 of the 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 .

Nancy embraced not only Pat , but the opportunity of bein ^ made happy through life ; and thereupon tho pair proceeded to a couple-beggar , got married , and were returning home ; but being , unfortunately , derained at a friend's house , another fairlady , called Peguy Burns , alias Graham , whose prior claim on Pat ' . s hand is evident , stepped forward , and " forbade the banns .

Pegg succeeded in carrying off by force the astonished wight , and left tho hapless Nancy to enjoy the benefits cf singlo blesfcduess , not , indeed , uufil 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 .
