A few minutes after one o’cloekthe outer prison door was opened and Mrs. Snrratt ~was supported on her way to the gallows ‘ by two military olfieers. Next followed Atzerodt, Han-old, and Payne, accomlmined by a guard and their respective ministers of the gosple. Front seat were provided for _ shun on the platform in the following order, ,Mrs. Surratt, Payne, Harrold and Atzerodt. “The otfieers entrusted with the executionV and the ,ministers occupied intermediate (positions.

Perhaps neVeral hundred ciVilians were present, anx- ious spectators of the solemn scene. One of the priests attended on Mrs. Snrratt, repeat- 'ed a short prayer, to which, Payne, who was .seatjed next to her, attentively listened. - ‘ GET OFF run SHINEâ€"Among the paroâ€" led rebel prisoners who came up on the steamer Lady Gay on Tuesday, was a, man a ,tle ov‘e seven and half feetin height.

Finding his authority treated wilh disrespect, he fil'airly boiled with rage and advancing to the big soldier, he ex- claimed, “What the dâ€"l are you standing,r on ?".The soldier respectfully replied, “ On my feetColon’el.”.. The Colonel was complete- A; token back, as he surveyed this ‘tall _‘speci- men of humanity from head to foot in blank amazement; he mumbled an apolegy for his rude remarks and hastened away, leaving his men convulsed with laughter. "' Get ofl'that stump" became a by-word with the Missouri rebels,-and it will no doubt live as long as the long-Missourianwâ€"Ca‘rio Democrat. ' " 3The minister then uttered Ida brief prayer, asking for Payne the forgiveness of all his sins and a passage out ot‘this world into the , jays (if heaven. The minister who attended Harold also returned thanks for the kind téa‘txtx‘ent of the prisoner, I and ofi'ere ad prayer that God would receive his soul. A‘s‘soon as the noose was placed around _e£ch neck, Mrs. Surratt's being the last one Rd'tis'ted, the section of the platform on ‘ ivich’ they were standinsr suddenly fell, and the, culprits were hanging several feet from thegroundt Mrs. Snratt and Payne scarce‘ 1y moved a muscle.

Major General Hancock was pesent through out rhe whole proceedings. ‘lt is said Payne, last night, made a statement .in behalf of Mrs. Surratt, exonerating her 'from complicity, and that another person subscribed to an affidavit impeaching the testimony of an important witness against her. I N ew York, July 7.â€"The Post's Washing- ton sp’eeial despatch says that strong efi'ons were made this morning:r to induce the Presi- dent to" reprieve Mrs. Surratt by her counsel ,and the Roman Catholic clergymen who giave fixated as her spiritual advisers, but to 'ho’ purpose. The President was firm in his \decisio'n, and while hearing the. argument £Qurte61'tsly refused to alter or modify the woman’s sentence. It is ieported Mrs. Surratt has written a statement or confes- ‘sizm Which-has been handed to her spiritual advisers. - Washington, July 6.â€"Major-Gen. Han- cock repaired to the arsenal at noon to-day, and deliverd the death warrants of Payne, Hamld, Mrs. Surratt and Atzerodt, to Majdr~General Hartrauft, who is in charge of the prisoners, when they together visited the condemned to inform them of the sent- ences pronounced and the time fixed for their execution. Payne was the first to whom the intelligence was communicated. It did not seem to take him' by surprise, as doubtless he anticipated no other sentence and had nerv- edhimselfaceordingly. The other prison- ers were naturally more or less affected. Mrs. Surratt particuldrly sank under-the xpead announcement, and pleaded for four duysndditional time to prepare for death. Allthe prisoners will be attended by clergy; men of their own denomination. The scaf- fold'has been erected in the South yard of the old penitentiary building, which is in closed by a high, brick wall. The coffins ahd burial clothes have already been pro _pa.red.
