' Coneat en of an Unexecuted femicide.
A tleenly alT'ecting narrative, under the
above title, has just iaaued from the Glasgow
nresa. It is declired to be "no fiction." It
is published according to t will of" William
M. Esq. of the county pf Stirling, Scotland,"
for the purpose of deterring others "from
the commission of a similar sin by the
thought, that if they escape the punishment
of the law, they sre sure to meet with that of
a racked and harassed conscience,' The

aflection, and smiles, and intiocc nee, and she
showed them on every occasion. If she lov
ed, she expressed in bright and niwliscuised
language the emotions ot her soul. Mary
was not more lovely, for that was impossible,
but she was evidently a being of profounder
snd intenscr feelings, fler spirit was more
fulbof pathos. Her fervour was not so easily
excited, but when once Aroused it (lowed m
deeper channels, and its influence upon all
the passions was most striking and irresistible.
U I know not bpw it was, but this pure-mitd-fed
and intellectual girl conceived for'ma a
strong affection. God knows, there was lit

one, and a!ove all of such as she. t never

he loved me at last as tt I had been the most
deserving object upon earth. How my gro
velling soul came to be invested with such
power, remains a problem which I have never
been able to solve. In all other respects the
mind of Mary was pure and heavenly. That
spirit so full of poetry and romance, that mild
enthusiastic spirit, conversant only with lofty
thoughts, and whose existence had passed in
a world of fancy and feeling, how did it de
scend from its high estate to seek compan
ionship with a base earthbnrn heart like
miner In this unly she erred; m this only she
showed that tinge of hu 1 anity which clings
to all below. Perhaps she might have been
influenced by her affection for my. sister.
Be that as it may, I saw her feelings, and,
with the true: villauy of my nature, resolved
to take advantage of them. It would be
sickening to relate all the schemes I put in
practice to ruiirthe virtue of this unfortunate
girl. She loved me to distraction, and I but
too well succeeded. But bow was my poor
bard conquest gained? By a proceeding, the

that my future intentions were honourable! :
and swore in the name of all Uiat ia sacred to

bles, and whose polluted soul seemed born
for the atmosphere of Uie blackest iniquity!
Time rolled on, and the s'ate of Mary be
came Apparent, but still I never felt remorse.
1 looked on unmoved at the ruin I had effect
ed; and when the unsuspecting victim requir
ed, the performance of my vows, she wss an
swered with a contemptuous sneer. ' Her spi
rit, from this moment, faded utterly awjty.
She felt that she had been betrayed, and saw
the dreadful precipice on which she stood
Had 1 been any thing else than a villain; had
one spark of generous feeling still animated
my bosom, I must have pitied the miserable
girl; but compassion wa unhappily a feeling
to which I had ever" been a stranger, aird I
looked on the wreck of beauty with savage
indifference. s
Eliza's tender heart was moved, and she
saw ber companion with other eyes. She did
not, with the prude-like barbarity of many of
her sex, cast oil tins emng sister, one saw
that she had been led astray, and knew, that
although, in the' eyes of the world she wal a
lost aud a worthless thinff, yet she was not to
be abandoned to misery and neglect. So far
frdm turning away trom this object ot distress
she pressed her to her bosom; nor did she
consider herself dishonored in so doing. Her
pure heart told her that Mary was innocent,
and what had occurred was a misfortune ra-
ther than a crime. - She solaced her in the
midst of her misery, and tTiett.to sustain her
broken heart, wit I; tbe hope mat I migut one

her, blameless and unblemished, to society.
Nor did she stop here, for on ber knees she
