EXECUTION. Yesterday morning John Edwards, alias Flash Jack, Edward Colthurst, William Leddington, James Smith, and Richard Johnson, who were convicted of piracy, suffered the dreadful sentence of the law. A reprieve arrived for Douglas, as he was proceeding, with the other unhappy culprits, to the place of execution. The manner in which the prisoners conducted themselves was highly becoming. Smith was assisted in his devotions by the Reverend Mr. Cow- per, and the others by the Reverend Fathers Power and Therry. Edwards, previous lo ascending the scaffold, requested of Mr. James, the Under Sheriff, that he might be allowed a few minutes for prayer, when the Reverend Gentlemen should take their final leave of them. This request was acceded to, and after the ropes were adjusted, and every thing in readiness, the prisoners knelt and Edwards, with the crucifix in one hand and the prayer book in the other, proceeded to read in a firm voice, while his companions seemed to join fervently in this act of devotion. When prayers were finished, Edwards addressed a few words to those who were assembled to witness his unhappy end, and persisted in affirming that he was innocent of the offence for which he was to have been transported. He then pointed to Colthurst and said he was innocent of the crime for which he was now about to suffer, ' on which Colethurst exclaimed, " I die innocent !" The unhappy men then com- mended their souls to God, when the drop fell, and ushered them into eternity.
