Thomas Sale , the convicted murderer of the late Mr BellehamberB , was hung on the drop in front of Newgate on Monday morning last . Any anxiety which may Ime been felt as to the fate of the wretched man , arising from his continued protestations that he was innocent , have fortunately been entirely dispelled , a full confession of his participation in the . crime , and an admission that hie was the hand wbich struck the blow , having been made by the convict to the rev . ordinary of the gaol at a late hour on Sunday evening .
At the conclusion of the religious services in the chapel , Sale appeared considerably depressed . At ten o ' cinck on Sunday night , at the convict's request , MrDavis was sent for . The reverend gentleman immediately attended , and in reply to Sale ' s observation that he felt very wretched in his mind , and unable to approach bis God , Mr Davis told him that unless he spoke the whale truth it was not possible that he could do go . The rasnssin then at once said , 'M'Coy ' s statement is true ; I struck the Wow . Lloyd knew 1 did bo , but M'C-y did not .
The agreement was that M'Coy should rob the man , and that Lloyd and myself should remvu with him . I struck 1126 51017 , but I did not mean to murder the man . ' After makiojj this . statement , the culprit appeared more collected , and , by his request , the rev . ordinary wrote for him a letter to the woman with whom he cohabited , and by whom he has bad two children , as also a letter to his parents . The letters are as follow : — Condemned Ceil , N < tvgate , QO m . to 11 p . m . January 9 > h , 1848 . .
Dear Father and Mother , —Hoping to find you os well as I am at present , considering my unhappy situation , I write this letttr to you , I hops my brother Willium and my sifters will be good children towards you and comfort you . When my poor brother Henry has got bin liberty , * I hope hn will be dear to you . D-ar mothor , I hope you will pro tect my poor children . I could earnf stly beg your prayers for my wicked soul , if it were possible . Had I taken your advice and mj fatberV , I should not hare bien here . I pray that tVe feiessed L- ^ vd may receive my guilty e ? ul . I hare sent you a lock of my hair—a portion of it for my wife . Your unhappy but affectionate son Mrs Sale . TnoMAs Sale . pS , I wish my father to have my shirt and black handkerchief . Condemned Cell , Newgate , January 9 lh , 1818 , 10 m . to 31 p . m .
Dear Wife , —I send you these last lines m the hope they will fiud you a » well as I am at present , excepting the awful condition in which I am unhappily placed . Hud I taken your advice , my d « ur Kir ' , I should never hare been here . It is no fault of yours , I have left you with two children on the wide world . I hope you will go home to your friends in Yorkshire . If you get married again , I hope you will marry a religious man , and not such a blackguard as I have been , God bless you and my children ! Your unhappy but affectionate hnsband , Thomas Sale .
The ordinary having concluded the above letters , Sale requested that ; one of his handcuffs might be removed . Mr Davis , feeling satisfied that the wretched man was in a much more composed state of mind than he had hitherto been , recommended that the handcuffs should be taken off altogether , which was accordingly done . Shortly afterwards the reverend ordinary having taken his departure , Sa ' e threw hinmt If on his couch , where he passed a somewhat restless night , He woke early on Monday mornin ? , and conversed for some time with the two turnkeys in attendance .
Tha ordinary was with him at 6 o'cloclr , and entered into the proper devotional exercises with tho unhappy man . Sale , during an interval of cessation , requoted as a particular favour that he might be allowed an interview with M'Coy : and aa Mr Davis * 'this young man was trBBBjpyted tfe ? . if two yeiiJS itiS 'ce .

' After uome observations expressive of his gratitude to the ordinary of the prison , the convict shook hands with the sheriffs , and wasted into an adjoining room , where the irons in which he has been placed Bince hia late atteraoted « cape were knocked off . He was brought back , and Calcraft being introduced , the wretched man was subjected to tlie process of pinioning . This completed , the proeession , headed by the sheriff * -and cbaplain , was formed ; and a « i the clack chimed eight o ' clock , tbe mournful cavalcade moved to the scaff . Id . _
On mounting the drop , the culprit bowed twice to the assembled crowd . The next moment the rope XWB attached , find the wretched man in a few BecOnds had ceased to exiat . The execution was witnessed by an immense number ofspectators .
