AUGUSTA, GEO. THURSDAY. JANUARY 17, IS2S.
CONFESSIONS
OF AN UNEXECUTED FEMICIDE.
A deeply affecting nana'ive, under ibe
above title has just issued from the Gl is-
pow press. It is declared ro he “ no fic
tion.” Ft is published according to the
will of “William M. Eiq. of the county
of Stirling, Scotland,” fur the purpose of
deterritjg others “ from the commission of
a similar sin, by the thought, thai if they
escape the punishment of the law, they
are sure to meet with that of a racked and
harrased conscience,” The Confessions
tie powerfully written and seldom have
we read a more touching narrative than
that which s contained in the work before
us. We insert an extract from the first
part of the Confessions :
“ Twenty-year*, and the vision still
haunts,nie ! Yes, ir is twenty years since j
I perpetrated th it crime vviiicit has poison- i si|
od mv existence, & thrown over it a cloud
of unutterable sorrow. All other crimes
may sleep, but iniquity like mine never
can. The worm that dies not preys up
on mv heart: I am the victim of remorse.
Mv house stood in the midst of a plan
tation of elm and pine. I is situation was
considered romantic by those who had an
eye for the beauties of nature, but such I
never had. It was a large isolated build
ing, white and airy in its appearance, and
decorated in front with a portico offourl • *-
nic pillars. Before the dour was a plot
of preen ground, bordered wiih flowers,
and in the centre of this a fountain of clear
water. Behind the mansion house thee
was a spacious garden, and about fifty
yards to the right flowed a little river,
murmuring among rocks, and shaded over
by bowers of the birch and rle-simt tree.
Few places were so retired and beauti
ful!, and here, if mv miserable tone of
mi id had permitted, I must have been
happy. I had no companion but an onlv
sister, and Heaven assuredly never forin-
e i i w i beings so completely different as
we. Poor Eliza, she was every tiling
that is amiable-in woman. Fair, b'-au-i-
fully proportioned, and graceful ut bet
movements, beyond even the most gifted
oilier sex ; her light and ait v form, lie:
blue, deep Hue eye ; her lio ever crossed
with smiles, and Iter complexion 'dear as
heaven itself. Of all these things I c mid
speak, but it avails not* They aregotie,
and nothing save dieir it-membrance
remains behind. Memory may do much
to hallow even the di-inest beamy, and
imagination may touch with more delicate
hues what flip former brings up from die
depths of time, but dieir fairy power were
useless bore. My sister had a form
and a ntind which fancy never excelled,
even ill her brightest dreams.
Strange to say, she loved me. I say
strange, for what In* irt but that of an an
gel could hear affection towards a being
So malignant ; so horribly wicked as I; l
can now recall how harshly 1 returned ail
her little acts of kindness. She would
trv, by every art, to bring from me some
deed of tenderness. She would smile,
and come out with some mirthful story.—
Site would sit down before me, and throw
her delicate arms around my neck in a
mood ofgaiety and love. She would flat
ter me, and watch over mv concerns, and
anticipate mv wishes, but all in vain. My
ungrateful heart refused to acknowledge
her attentions ; hei fondness became patn-
ful to me, and I repulsed her. N >r
when I was stretched on a bed of sickness
did her tenderness abate. When the
burning fever rioted in my veins, and but
a step iav between nne and eternity
attended me with more titan a
care. Night after night she sat watching
over mv couch. I have seen her, when
she little thought I so remarked, weeping
in my dimly illuminated chamber ; and
raisin
every oc caston. It sheloved she
expressed in bright and undisguised lan
guage the emotions of her soul.—
Mary was not more lovely, fi r that was
impossible, but she was evidently a beotg
of profounder and intenser feelings. Her
siiirit was more full of pathos. Her fer
vour was not so easily excited, but when
once aroused it flowed in deeper channels,
ind its influence upon all the passions was
more striking and irresitibie.
I know not how it was, but this pure-
minded and intellectual girl conceived
for me a strong affection. God knows,
there was little in mv society to attract
the love of auyjine, and above all of such
as she, I never did her an act of kind
ness. I scarcely ever spoke to her with
common civilty ; vet strange to say, I un
knowingly gained her heart, and she loved
me at last as if I had been tits nintit de
serving object upon earth. fl<*w my gro
velling soul came to-be invested with such
power, remains a problem which I have
never been able to c olve. In all other
respects the mind of Mary was pure and
heavenly. That spirit so full of poetry
and romance, tl at mild enthusiastic spirit,
conversant onlv with lofty thoughts, and
whose existence had passed in a
of world fancy and feeling, how did it
descend from its ltieii estate to seek com
panionship with a b .se earth-born heart
like min<* ? In this only she e red; in
Ips onlv she showed that tinge of humani
ty which clings to all below. Perhaps
might have been influenced bv her
affection for my sis<er.—Be that as it may,
[ saw her feelings, and. with the tnie vil
lainy of mv nature, resolved to take ad
vantage of thorn. It would be sickening
to relate all the schemes I put hi practice
to ruin the virtue of that nnforiunu e girl.
She loved mo to distraction, and I but
too well succeeded. Bat how was my
poor hard conquest gained ? By a pro
ceeding,the iniquity of wh clt, no language
can characterise. [ invoked the Most
1 1 igh to witness that mv fuiuie intentions
wore honorable ; and swore in the name
of all that is sacred to make her m v own:
I never intended to keep my promise.—
What wore oaths to mo? What were
broken hearts and ruined hopes to one
who looked upon virtue and honor as bau
bles, and whose polluted soul seemed
born for the atmosphere of the blackest
iniquity !
Time rolled on, and the state of Marv
became apparent, but still I never feb re
morse. I looked on unmoved at the ruin
T had eff-etpd ; and when the unsuspect
ing victim rpqu red he performance of tin
vows, slit* was answered with a c ult *mp-
tnous sneer. Her spirit, fro n this moment
fade I, utterly away. She felt hat she
had been betrayed, and saw the dreadful
orecipice on which she stood. H id I
been anv tiling else but a villain ; had one
spark of generous feeling still animate !
mv bosom, I must h ive pitied the misera
ble girl; hut compassion was unhupnilv
a feeling to which I had ever been a
stranger, and I looked on’the wreck of
beauty with savage indifference.
Eliza’s tender heart was moved, and
she saw her companion with other eyes.
She did not, with die nrude-like bat ban y
of many other sex, cast off diis-eiring sis
ter. She saw that she had boon led estray,
and knfiw, tli.it although in the eves of the
world she was a lost and a worthless thing
yet she was not to be abandoned to mise
ry and neglect. So far front turning away
trom this object of distress, she pressed
her to her bosom ; nor did she consider
herself dishonored irt so doing. Her pure
heart fold her that Mary was innocent,
and what hid occurred was a misfortune
rather than a crime. She solaced her in
the midst of her misery, and tried to sus
tain her broken heart, with the hope that
I might one day repair thp injury I had
done, and restore her, blameless and un
blemished, to society. Nor did she stop
here, f >r <>n her knees-she conjured me as
I valued the welfare of a wretched crea-
tuie; as I valued the honor of oui house;
as I valued my own e ernal happiness, to
render that tardy justice which uprightness
and vtrtue demanded. The appeal was
he ' eloquent as beauty and affliction could
mother's | 'D ike it ; but it was in vain., I heard it
with contempt.
Ab uit this tint a young lady of consid
erable fortune came to reside in our part
of the couniry. She was rich, and I con
es her fair hands to Heaven in sup- j sidered that now or never had an oppor
plication tor my recovery- And when I
did recover, who can paint the joy that
lighted up her beautiful countenance !—
All saw it with delight save one, and that
was her wretched and ungrateful brother.
She had a friend named Mary Elhston,
also a beautiful girl. Their friendship had
commenced in childhood, and their souls
were knit closer by succeeding years.—
Mary lived with us, for she was an orphan
undoing originally of a respectable but
unfortunate family, mv father gladly adop
ted her as a companion to his daughter.
She was tall and exquisively made, and
ail her movements were full offemale dig
nity. Her form wanted the richness and
voluptuous swells of Eliza's, but it was
more airy, and, if possible, more graceful).
2M V lister's 'omplexton had the brightness
And bloom of northern beauty. Her yel
low hair waved like streaks of sunshine
over her temples, and her blue eves, deep
And lucid as the sapphire,were full of ani
mation and mirth of soul. Mary bad more
of the Italian cast in her countenance,
which was of a darker and warmer hue.—
Her hair was black and shining, and her
eyes, of the same complexion, were full
of melancholy. Never were two lovelier
beings associated together undpr the same
goof. Eliza was all affection, and smiles,
inpocensa, g>ud she sfaowid theta
tunity occurred of gratifying mv passion
wiih the semblance of virtup, as the ashes
«f the dead are covered with flowers, and
ctawled, like the viper, under cover, the
better to entrap my prey.
That no evil report might injure my re
putation tilt that time, I had Mary sent
* ff about ten miles to a small country
house on the hanks of the Forth. The e
the sorrows of that unhappy girl only be
came more pungent ; site felt the misery
of 1 neliness. Deprived of my sisier’s so
ciety and mine ; and the last, stiangeto
sav, sh‘* prized above all other; her heart
became mure desolate and broken. Site
wrote me a letter ; the paper was stained
with tears, arid evert word breathed un
utterable affection. It implored me to
take compassion on her wretched state,
and fulfil the promise I had so solemnly
made; “ I know that yon* are address
ing another, but if she has the spir it of a
woman, never will she lis en to you after
what yon have done to me.”
Such were the condoling lines of her
letter, and they filed me to revenge.—
Suspicion lowered upon my heart, and the
thought came upon me that they were but
the prelude of a discovery. “ And must
my pin in he thus thwarted by that wretch
ed git I? Must a fortune be torn away
trom my grasp? Shall site unveil to my
affianced bride what for a lime must te-
niain in darkness; and for what ? to ruin
me; to blast mv dearest prospects with
out henefi ling herself?” The evil pas-
si ns were stirred up within me ; hell
boiled in mv besom, am) f was wrought
to an erstarv of madness. F >r half a dav
l remained in this tumult of passion.—
Towards evening it ceased to exhibit it
self on the outer man, hut raged within
more intensely than ever.
Y<‘s, I remember it «■■]). This dav
and twenty years have rolled nwav, I sat
bv the fire moodv and distracted, and
m d taring, apparently, sump v i dent deed.
My sister sat opposite to me. Site was
empl ved at her needle, but while she
sewed, her blue eyes streamed with tears,
and ever and amt in she c;»s» at me ’ni,k- of
the deepest affliction. ‘ Mv dear bro ber,
has any tiling occurred to dis’ress you?’
I thundered on ! , ‘silence, distract me
not,’ in a voice which made her start back
ward with terror ; and, striking my hand
violently against mv burning forehead, I
left the room and mounted up stairs to mv
bed chamber. A small Highland dn k
iiting over the mantiepiece. It has been
in fbe family for ages. I put it in mv
pocket, almost unknowing wh.at 1 did, and
descended with portentous speed. Eliza
met me as f was going out. She put her
slender arm in mine, and requested me,
w: h a voice of melting tenderness, to stnv
at home, for that I was evidently very
unwell. With brutal violence I pushed
her aside and rushed into the oppn air.
The evening was fair, beautifully fair.
The sun was sinking down gloriously, and
mellowing nature over with his last de
parting* beams; but I remember it not.
F saw nothing; I lmard nothing. A tu
mult was in mv Iipart ; mv ears were
stunned, and I hurried over the earth with
reckless furv. N’ght came down, and I
found mvself at Jim’s door. I entered
but she was not wi’h ; n. She had gone
out to walk bv the banks of the Forth.
I wen to find her. Her lovely and in
teresting form was seamd upon a rock
which overlooked thp stream. WltPti I
came up, she was in tears ; but she threw
her arms around me, and ki sod me with
unspeakable fondness. How rotrt intic
was 'he scene ! O liovv unfit for a deed of
villany! The moon was no in thp vault
of heaven.—The firmament was silvered
over with her chaste beams, and the light
of the planets dissolved and lost in a flood
of pale celestial glory*. One solitary star
twinkled by her side. .4nd how beauti
fully were the rays reflected bv the stream
that murmured amid its rocky* channel,
and gave forth a melancholy music, which
was the onlv sound that disturbed the un
broken calm of nature ? Could crime
linger here? Could vice pollute such a
scene with its accursed presence ? Base,
cruel,treacherous was the deed. Was there
no bolt of heaven to consume mv coward
heart ? While she clung to mv bosom
and called me her own—while her deep
melting eyes were thrown so expressively
on mv savage countenance—ves the deed
was then done—done at a moment when
anv heart, but that of a demon, rvouid have
been disarmed. I drew slowly the dagger
from my pocket, and (my spirits shudder
for money. My situation in life yvas well w ^ e * ' slate it) stabbed her in the back!
A shriek and she fell to the earth—* Oh !
do not destroy me ! William, William,
that yvas a cruel stroke. Spare me—do
not kill me, do not kill my noor unborn
babe 1’ She clung to my knees, but I
spurned her away, and she again felt ex
hausted. There was no time to be lost.
I laid violent hands upou her and pitched
her over the rock. I heard her rustling
among the branches which opposed a fee
ble resistance to her fall, and then a dash
among the waters, and a feeble cry ; and
all was silent.'*
known, and 1 was cordially received as a
visitor iuto her mother's house. I endea-
voted to make myself as agreeable as pos
sible, and in a short time had the satisfac
tion of thinking that I was listened to
with not an unfavorable ear. There was
only one bar that stood in the way, and
this was Mary Elliston. Mv faith was
plighted to her in the most solemn man
ner ; and I well knew chat if this reached
the ears of my new mistress, my pros
pects in that quarter were at an end. Be
sides, Mary was now in that state that
rendered her misfortune palpable to all
eyes. No one as yet knew the author of
her misery, but he could not remain con
cealed much longer ; and his name once
mentioned would sink him to infamy and
degradation. I cared little for exposure,
on the score of honor or virtue, but F
dreaded on that of self-interest. L>et me
get possession of my object ; let hei
wealth be once fairly secured in my iron
hand; and my shame, for aught I cared,
might be trumpetted to the uttermost ends
of the earth. But till then—till that de
cisive, that irrev<*knble moment, it behov
ed that all should wear the aspect of integ
rity ; that all should run smooth as the
uorufod sea. I covered tay hypocrisy
T he forget me no i—the amulet.
