It has again become our painful doty to irecnrd the particular* of the ignomiuou* death of <>be of our fellow creatures, in iompSiance with the requiaitione of the violated law* of our country. The awful •entente of death waa yeaterday executed upon James Hamilton, the murderer of the lamented major liirdssll, in the south part of this city, in the presence of a large concourse of people, from this and the au Joining counties. it is ever with emotions of the deepest regret that we atteanpt to deuil the so lemn ceremonies attendant upon public executions; but enstom. and the genius of our law*; which have ordained capital pun ishmente more at an example to the liv ipg, than a« a punishment to the. offender. »eem to forbid our -remaining s'lent. Ob' 1 the present occasion, however, we shall be as brief a* possible. The onhappy convirtj fits expiated his crime upon the gallows— public justice is ubtaiued—and wc have, every human evidence that the guilty malefactor died a sincere and happy pent tent. Pursuant to pi evious arrangements, the prisoner left the jail at half past 12 o’clock guarded by the Albany corps of artillery and attended by the sheriff, hi* deputin and officers, and by a number of the rover end clergy. He had two or three days previ eukly expressed a dislike to be taken to the . .place of execution in a cart, and had re boosted of the 6heriiT permission to walk ., Vhia officer, who lias ever, treated the pris 1' oner witn the uttermost attention and liu ' manity, readily shewed him this, as well •s all other proper iudolgencies. He left the prison with a countenance perfectly calm and serene—walked to the place ■>) execution, a distance of more than a mile With a firm and unshaken step—and ccnded the scaffold without assistance or apparent reluctance. The rev. Mr. Stans bury, who his been constant in his attend •nee. upon the unhappy man since htf 1 re ceived his sentence—who has zealously la 'bouretl “in season and out of season,” to dissipate the ignorance and gloom <>f hi uneducated mind,by the holy rays of evau gelical light—and whom we hope has suc cessfully exhibited to him the riches and glories of the gospel,—attended him to the •fatal spot, and ascended the scaffold .witl fiim. Mr. Stansbury then gave out th .Slat Palam, 1st purtj beginning— ‘‘Shew pity Lord, O Lord, forgive.” The singing concluded, Mr. S. addressed the throne of grace and merry, in a feeling, jfervent and elegant prayer of about 20 .minutes. After prayer was closed, at the request of the prisoner, who stated that lie feared if he undertook to speak himself. . die should not tic able to render hi* ideas in telligible, Mr. S. addresed the audience -ill-his behalf for more than SO minutes, in the most affectionate and impressive inan- -lier. It might with truth be said of th -speaker, that the “oil of eloquence was upon his tongue, and the honey of persua sion upon his lips.” In the course of the address, the prisoner requested Mr. S. to ■make a public confession for him, of the sense he entertained of the enormity of the -crime he had committed—his full belief in the justness of the sentence about to be inflicted—that he felt no desire to evade -the requirement* of the law—and to de clare biS confidence in the Christian reli gion, and in the efficacy of the blood of t.hi- -Uedeemer shed for the salvation of man. ' Notwithstanding the re verend gentleman -on whom had devolved these weighty and important duties, was greatly agitated and :-affected, yet, both his prayer and.ad dress, whether we regard them as pure streams of piety and devotion, or as the ef fusions of the classic divine, vvere masterly ^performances; and liop'e they will make a suitable and lasting impression upon thou sands who listened to him with such pro found attention. The services were closed by singing the 51st Psalm, 2d part. “Lord, I am vile, conceiv’d in sin,” Ac, -' The prisoner, then addressed a few words to those who stood immediately about him, and took a fiual and affectionate farewell - of the sheriff, Mr- Stansbury, and at hi* par ticular request, of several of his former of eficers and companions inarms. He was then launched ..into.eternity, under the fullest confidence, as he frequently de clared during the day, of having received a , pardon for his sins, and Consequently of enjoying a blessed immortality. And may this awful example prove salutry! Hamilton, during his confinement since his trial, and upon the day of execution, conducted himself with the utmust pro priety. lie appeared perfectly, resigned to his fate, and during tbe last hour, nei- nther uttered a muriuer nor a sigh. When - first swung off, the cord broke, in conse quence of the friction upon the hook above; but ever, then, neither his composure no? bis resolution forsook him. He regained his fret, and ascended the scaffold, as firm- . ly as betore. -i ‘ Die assemblage of spectator* was on- co-nmonty numerous—probably (rum 10 to; 1-2,01)0; and the crowd through the streets mi the way to tho place of execution, was so strong as to create serious apprehen sions; but in consequence of the judicious arrangements made'by Mr. then if Hemp stead, and the g" 0 ,; conduct of his offi cers, and the military on duty, we are happy to state that no material accident occurred. ,j All the uniform companies of this city, the txovps.stauoaed.at the caatopment at Jm Greenfash, and those from the United States’ arsenal at Watervleit, were on duty. Tbe followin'; remarks on tbe above melancho ly lie from the A:5any Argue. Tyi- unhappy, the unfortunate Hamilton has opiated,) n congregated iniquities by » ClmsiMn p-rnanre, and an ignominious death. The untimely fate o( the gallant OirdiaU,'nailed down deserved impreca tions upon t.e hoad of.his assassin, but hit untoward and unprotected situation* has extorted sympathy from every feeliug bosom. Illegitimate, and abandoned as he was, by<ltlinatural parents, he passed through a career of open and undisguised vice, without ao*anxioub mother to culti vate t barren mind and inculcate the go verning principles of youthful virtue, or a watchful father, to regulate and restrict a heated and iropetuons temper.. From his youth upwards, to the fatal act which ter minated bis career, he has been involved in an uninterrupted scene of vice; the first principles of which, was imbibed in the city of New-York, and progressed fill finally matured into the most hardened depravity white in the army. Themrime which has .how harried him into another world, we are thoroughly per suaded,' notwithstanding foimer appear ance’*, was the.impulse of au angry mo- 1 mcnf, ,and not deliberate, premeditated murder. He loaded his rifle for the pur pose of shooting a colored man, with, wbuui he had quarrelled, through'the legs; which he declares was his intention, hail the mao dot avoided him. That while thus enrag-i ed, with his temper.iuflamed by intoxica-; lion, he was called on parade, and in his way, ' presenting himself before major' Birdsall, who urnend him to his duty;- his burning passions baffled by the escape of the person who enraged them, they be came ungovernable, and his revenge was insensibly wreaked upon the innocent llirdsall. This account he affi.incd wicu every appearance of truth, with all the emphasis ..f Christian penitence, on the mm ning of his execution. ‘ ■ For the first few days of his confinement, ham, of Philadelphia, was in possession of the said box or bale of merchandize, or the proceeds thereof, a monition had been issued to and served upon l:im to.bring in the same, and, that he having disobeyed the monition, and being in contempt ther-- lor, the warrant in question issued, which commanded the marshals to whom -jt was directed in thename of the president ot the United States, to attach and arrest the said Pater Graham if to be found in their districts, respectively, and hold bim in close custody to answer said -court for bis contempt: or if he cannot fie found within .the districts, respectively, tfctfi to seize snd sequester the goods and effects of Pe ter Granam to the amount of 82000. The marshal having taken Mr. Graham into custody by virtue of this warrant of attachment, he sued out a writ of habeas corpus for the purpose of contesting the. lawfulness of the confinement. Mr. Bin- ney was heard on the part of Mr. Graham on Monday last,denying tne power of any district or circuit court of tne United States to send or execui e its process out of the dihtrict over which such court pre sides; and denying the legality of. Litis pro cess in particular, because Graham nevei was » party to the proceedings in Rhode Isl - and, and also questioning thb validity of .tlie warrant on various points ot form- J 'lie coart in consideration of the novelty lid great-importance of the-qaestfbn, i e quested the district attorney, Mr. Inger soil, to argue it in support of ■ the warrant which he undertook to do accordingly, hut asked for a few days time to examine it The court therefore postponed the argu ment until Friday, when it was resumed by Mr. Ingersoll, in support of the warrant and Mi. Cliauucey in reply and conctu sibn against it. in support of the warrant, it was contended that the constitution and laws had given to the several courts of the United States all admiralty and maritime' jurisdiction, without other.limitation than the cases themselves, or subject mattei required, and that as respected place there was no limit to their jurisdiction: that this being a case of priz ■, in which the jurisdiction of the Rhode Island ad in he remained in a state of complete.-, phren- ra lty court had once attached by possessio zy, without either reflecting upon.the hor-; 1; Ltlie. thing, its process would reach ell rid crime lie had perpetrated, or realizing the incidents and constque the still more horrid late wli»!i awaited him, and after recovering the use of his in tellects, he. fell into a state of stupid in sensibility, waiting composedly, lor anni hilations an irrational opinion he had pre- viously embraced, and lor some time after tenaciously adhered to. The argument* mid persuasions of the -clergy who visited him, were urged in vain for many weeks. Some weens before hjs execution, a re markable revolution in his opinions ana feeling* were discovered—lie read the Bi-i ble almost incessantly. The enormity of hi* crimes were brought to his view in their nost appalling character. His anguish was bitter in the extreme; and we arejun- t.fieil i-i saying he drank the cup of remorse to the very dreg*. He sent for the clergy and implored tiieir prayers and instruc tions, and we have his own authority, that hi* three last days were the happiest of hi* whole life. Hamilton ascended the ladder to the scaffold with the most perfect coinposu-c and resignation. The sheriff stood on the Scaffold on one side, and Mr. Stansbury on the other. Hamilton surveyed atten lively the multitude which aurtroundetl him. After a fervent and animated ap-, peal to the fountain of mercy, he request- < d Mr. Stansbury to address the spectators in bi* bhalf, saying he was incapable of ex plaining hi* belief, or expressing his sen timents in proper language: Mr. S. ad dressed a glowing and emphatic appeal to the spectators in an audible and com manding voice. He spoke of the unhal lowed crimes of the condemned malefac tor, and the ignominious death they had brought him to, with peculiar force and feeling. He gave an interesting account >f the state ot his mind, and adverted to the cause of the uncommon serenity anil composure which accompanied him to the shameful death of.the scaffold. He called tiieir attention to a murderer, who then stood on the brink of eternity, calm, tran quil and inexpressibly happy, waiting with solicitude for the last moment, asking, what but the power and strength of the guspel could support him in that awful situation? He concluded by exhorting and supplicating sinners to be what the condemned Hamilton .was—a Christian penitent• Hamilton then requested Mr. to warn them against tbe pernicious and destructive effects of intemperance Ha milton then perssDallv spoke, in substance thus:—“My friends, 1 have but little to say to you. .1- acknowledge the justice of the law and the condutof the civil officers in executing me for the crime I have commit ted. I am ready to die. I die in peace with the whole world. I am perfectly hip py. I cannot express my happiness, so 1 bid yea all farewell.” LAW INTELLIGENCE. A novel and very important question of law as respect* the.jurisdiction of IbeJcJ- eral court* in admirality and maritime cases, lias been decided by the judges of- the circuit court of the United States, dur- _ their present session in Philadelphia. The queslioii arose out of a warrant of at tachment issued from the circuit court of the United State* for the Rhode Island District, tested on the 8th July, 1818, di rected to the marshals of the district of Rhode Island, New-York and the eastern' This warrant reciting that the ship Fran ces and cargo were condemned as prize to the captor* in tne Rhode Island district in the year 1813, a certain bale or box ol merchandize, part of that cargo, had, by mistake, been delivered to a certain James Stewart, and taken out of that district, that alur monition, disobedience, con tempt and warrant of attachment, Stewart hod absconded from the United States, and that, on the representation of Stewart's pructer and tbe captors, that. Pct£c. Gra- casejand that bv the practice and nrinci pies of all pi ize courts, which are into lional, not municipal tribunals, they not confiued to or by territorial limita tions. On Saturday morning, judge Washing ton delivered the opiriiun of the court, stating, that though during the argument the judges were notwithout some doubt on the subject,yet they had determined to discharge Mr. Graham from custody on the ground that the several circuit and district court* of.the United States are limited in theirjurisdictiuntothe territorial district*,, to widen they are respectively allotted ii their organization, and cannot extend tiieir process beyond their local limit cept in certain cases specially provided for by law, of which this is not out-.- Fraiuclin Gazette, 9th inst.

This vessel, it will.be recollected, wa* seized by the revenue officers ot this port, in the month of June, 1817,while she was attempting t» pass up to Baltimore. The Providencia war the property of certain subjects of the king of Spain, from whom she was forcibly taken, while going from St. Sndero to Havana, with a cargo ol cord age, cutlery, dfc. hy an armed vessel call ed the Maugore, fitted out at Baltimore,/ commanded hy a capt. Barnes, and cruiz ing under the flag of one of the indepen dent provinces of South America. The captor- after putting a prize crew onboard of her, ordered her to Buenos-Ayrcs, but owing to stress of weathvr and other cau ses,’the prize master thought proper to shape his course for Baltimore. On being brought in here she was immediately libel led by the consul of his Catholic majesty, in' benalfofher Spanish owners, and a de cree subsequently issued out of the district court of the United States, directing both the vessel and cargo to be sold, and the proceeds deposited in the bank, subject to the future order of the court. The follow ing we understand, is the final decree of trie judge, (Tucker) pronounced (luring the pending term of thecourt:—Five sixths of the whole amount to be paid over to his Catholic majesty’s consul for the state ol Virginia, for the benefit ;>f the Spanish owuers; the remaining sixth to be retain ed and held at the disposal of the court, as salvage, should any legal claim of that sorj he put in within 12 months; but should no such claim be preferred during that pt • noil, or being preferred and the court should deem it insufficient, then the sum so retained to be.paid over to the Spanish consul as in the first casA.—Herald.
