The New York Independent, that able and independent religions prper, speaks ns follows of Kowis D. Morean, and the importance of the coming election :- \the citizens of New Y ork have before them in the cleetion now pending, a monientous re- sponsibility not for State interests alone but for the great cause of freedom und of national integrity. 'The question to be settled at the polls in November, is not merely whether the gubernniotini chair shall be ocenpied for the next two years, by anahonest and faithful friend of freedom nod virtue, but whether the next Congress shall withstand tho debnsing subscrviency of the federal Adininistration to the slave power, orshall be the tool of Mr. Buchanan ond his Southern dictators. 'Fhere is but one question of public policy before the country, and that is the question of feder- al alliance with slavery ; there is hut one is- sue to be met, and that is the supremacy of Freedom or of Slavery in our national coun- cils and upon our national domain. 'The ad- ministration of Mr. Buchanan wes ushered in by the Dred Scott decision, and inuugurated by renewed outrages upon freedom in Kangus. It is now scheming for the requisition of Cu- bn, and the invesion of Mexico and of Central America. It exists for no national ond pat- riotic end, but solely for the extension of its power. ITow fust the plots of the slave-fac- tion at Weshington multiply ; how fearful are its eneronchments upon Constitutional freedom and our dearest civil and personal rights, the lost cightyears may testify. 'The purty vow in power at Washington aro ready for any of daring or of sacrifice which that sectional faction may demand. 'The tem- porary intimidation produced by the deter- mined opposition of the North at the last Presidential election, has been followed by a most nudacious reaction ; and the present Administration is more hopelessly and shamie- lessly given over to the stave interest than was even that of Frouklin Picrce. Iwo years hence it map be quite too Inte to check this downward tendency, 'Two years hence, and Cuba will have been secured: Central America invaded; new slave states focorporated into the Union, while Kansag is kept out by artifice or violence. 'The destiny of Fredom in this country for twenty years to come, the question of the preponderance of freedom or slavery in out national policy, may be determined by the Congress now to be chosen. 'The friends of freedom in other states have felt that in their elections this fall they were called upon to festify against the federal Administration, and to choose a Con- gress which should defeat its infamous schemes. Pounsylyania has wiped out the disgrace of her Iraudulent Presidential v-te. Ohio has more than repeated her testimony fo '56. In- diana and Jowa have nobly rallied to this great contest of freedom. It remains for New York to settle the question whether the rale of slavery shall be absolute and reckless for the remainder of Mr. Buchanan's term, or whether that power shall be held in check by a House of Representatives faithful to freedom. 'That is the one question to be decided in every Congressional district of th's state on the first Tuesday of November,. Every laver ut freedom should act in view of this reseue; every Christain voter should ponder this great and urgent respousibilicy, 'There is a work for every man to do for his country, for the Right, and for God.- 'The friends of freedom shoull look to it that all who are opposed to the demorali- zing subserviency of the present Adminis- tration to sinvery, are united in the nomi- nation of candidates for Congress upon that platform. 'They should look to it that their organization, their canvassing, their arrangements for the polls, are efficient and thorough. Christians should give time, thought, and prayer to a duty which in this crisis is as important as prayer itself. - If every christian voter will but follow out the dictates of his conscience against the en- cronchments of the slave-power, he will give to this pending election his most vigilant and persistent efforts in the enuse offreedom. A. triumph now, is a restraint upon nation- al wickedness for two years to come, and the nssurance of a complete victory over the slave oligarchy two years hence. In order to that greater consumation for which all Christian patriots devoutly pray, we need the moral effect of a complete victo- ry of the Right, in our State election. It is upon this ground that we feel it to bea duty to advocate and urge the election of Ar, E. D- Moroas ais Governor of New York. We have no personal sequaintance with the geo- tlemen, and we do rot necept or espouse hiin simply as the nominee of the Republican par- ty. | This journal is the organ of no party in church or state. . We advocate the election of Mr Moncax upon grounds .of the highegt public and moral significance. His known character of integrity, 'his long experience of basiness and offatvs, his genera! intelligen®b his liboral and progressive views upon mat- ters of state policy, would make him au houor to the state in its highest ofice. But MF Morgan is a fra friend of freedom; an intol- ligent supporter of of the groat principles of h efiy Inid down in the Declaration of 1ndé- peddence and the federal.Gofstitution; a man with. whom . freedom;ia not & crotchet, nor a eatthword, but a principle of both head and heart.

Hotchkiss and 'Oulting vis- ited him regularly every morning, offered spir- itual advice, and urged him to prepare his mind for the great change. 'They prayed with him and for him with anxious solicitude for that chatige Sf heart that was essential to calmness and resignation in his last moments, as well as to hope for happiness beyoud the grave. At times the prisoner has prayed with much apparent fervor, bat generally be fore concluding he would give vent to some manifestation of a spirit yet unsubdued. Such was the 'case as lato as yesterday. We wish there was more to encourage a hope that the condemned man had made his peace with his creator, He hns been quite regular in taking his meals and his rest. | Last night he ate his sup- per with his customary readiness, und retired to rest before 11, and slept till morning. - 'This morning be took his beakfast us usual, ind conversed freely with his uttendants in his usual mood, on the event he was to meet. - He said he desired to have his body kept until Sunday, ard then interred at Mt. Hope Oem- ctery. Between nine and ten o'clock, Rev, Mr. Ontting repaired to his room, to remain with him while he should live. Soon after, Rev. Mr. Bourdman came-Ar. Hotchkiss being confined to his house by illness. | 'Phese cler- gymen couversed with him freely, but found no apparent ebnuge in his inind from that con- dition he exhibited yesterday. While they were there, lis mother came to the Jail to bid adieu to her son. She was conducted to the cell by Messrs. Merrill and Smith, ond as soon as she saw Tra she sprang forward and embraced bim, weeping most pitcously. After alittle time she composed horsell so far as to fall upon her knees, nod prayed audibly for her son. - 'The scene was an affecting one, and brought tears to the eyes of all present. | Iru gave way under this appeal, and wept. While Mrs. Stout was praying for her son, she asked the Lord to tike him uway before the time of execution. W. C. Bloss, Esq., who was present, end who had been a con- stant uttendant upon the prisoner since his conviction, interrupted the prayer by saying \Lord not my will, but thine be done!\ Shortly alter, the youth Charles and his lit- tle sister Franky werctbrought in to bid adiew to Irn, and this interview still further affected the spectators. - The children havenot been with him perhaps cuough at nuy tiime since they were infants to become Sreatly attached, especially the little girl. Shortly before the clergyman visited the prisoner, Mr. Pomeroy, his counsel, who hes so zealously supported his cause in the Courts, called upon him and remained for some time after the clergy arrived. Dr. Hall, physician to the Jail, lind been sent for to put the band- ages upon the prisoner's arm at his request, as he said the sight of the wound made him sick at his stomech. When his arm was bared, Mr. Pomeroy remarked that the gash was a large one. Ira repliod thatit was strange that he did not cut the artery, as he intended to do; and in reply to a remurk as to bis knowledge of where the erteiy was, he pointed to it upon his right aro. | When the bandages hed been repiared, Dr. Hall esked him if they were not too tight? | Ira replied that they were rather tight but os he had but a_ short time to ute them, it made no difference; and that he would not pnt the Doc- tor to the trouble of changing them. Stout asked Mr. Pomeroy if anything bad taken place in their relations as client and conusel which ueeded to be talked over ond arrouged? Mr. Pomeroy said he was glad that be had opened the subject and went on to remark that he had conducted the defence in such a way as seemed most judicious for bis elieut, and if he taought he had erred fu any partic- ular he would fike to bave him state how, and in what particular, 'To this the prisoner re- plied that he hnd beeu led to believe at times by the remarks of others that Mr. Pomeroy had injured his cause by the manner in which he acknowledged his commission of the cide, but he did not know but it was the best that could be done. Alr. Pomeroy ossured him that he had heard from some of the jury and from those who were competant to judge the defense that it wes the best course that could be taken in view of the weight of evi- denes which the proscention had brought agaiust the prisoner. - On this poiut Stout ap- peared to be satisfied aud reconciled. Mr. Pomeroy told the prisoner that he would be frank and tall him where he thought he erred and that it wes not making hin a «onfident in the outset and disclosing the true state of the ense, - And added in the course of the conversation that it would be a satisfac- tion to him to know whether in conducting the case he had failed to sucedced in conse- quence of neglecting to avail himself of the achuicalities of the law, or whether it was the facts that bore him down. He told Ira that it ha was disposed to grout him any especial fuvor in consideration of the relation they hnd held he might, though one of his spiritual ad- visers, set his mind at rest io the Coubtful pofut. Stout said he had been frequently impor- tuned to markesuca a disclosure, and thought he should have done so to his counsel before the trial but did not give Mr. P., any assor ance that he would do so. Before Mr. Pom- eroy left he handed the prisoner a couple of gold rings which he bad desired him to pur- thase, to give, we suppose, as parting tokens to friends. ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE EXECUTION. The gallows is the same which had always been in use in the Jail, the rope-a hemp cord -alone being new. A weight of 186 pounds rests upou a swing door set in the garret flour of the Jail. | From this weight the rope runs over two pullics above, and the end of it drops through two floors, nnd nearly to the main floor of the Juil. | 'The weight falls about eight feet, jerking the slack ead that distouce. 'The bulter attached to the maju rope is a long distance below the main enginery of death, and the Intter is not seen by the rpectatores or prisoner. . 'The sheriff stood at the foot of we stairs, some forty feet from the prisonar. and by a small cord pulled the latch, which let the fital weight fail. The prisoners, some sixty in number, were all locked in their cells aud many of them were within hearing of the proceedings at the gallows, but none could see the condemned man there. | 'The spectutores and officers stood upon the flag stone floor of the balls runing past the cells or upon the galleries above.- All the arrangements were made by ihe Sheriff with particular care that wothing should occur to mar the solecinity of the occasion.-- A good coflin was procured and placed jn a vacant cell near the gallows, in which to place the remains as soon as the body was cut down. 'The military--thrée companies-the Ger- man Grenadiers Light Guard and Union Grays, marched to the Jail soon after oue 0% clock, and formed lices of sentries to keop the crowd back from the Jail yard. 'The avemie leading from Oourt street southward was kopt entirely clear. Many people: could be seen about there as carly as 10 o'clock this morn- ing, and the' multitude ivercased from that hour till the execution was over, At 2 o'clock the persors Invited to be pres ent assembled at the Supreme Court Room, aud went to the place of execution in a body. 4oowp (0 < THE EXECUTION. | ; > -.

Stout did not rise but while seated, in a clear and firm voice said: _ Gentlemen, I am of the opinion that there hes been - considerable vindictiveness | in this matter, and where there is vindictiveness it is dificult to speak, - 1 have leftmy oracle which contains an expression of my feclugs es & dy- fog man and that contains all I have to say. Rev. Mr Hotchkiss then standiog at the prisoner's right said that he would read the whole of the 15th chapter of 1st Corinthians, at the request of the prisoner. - And be read it, the prisoner meanwhile seated with his head supported by his right hand. At the conclusion of the rending the Scrip- ture, Mr. Hotchkiss said he would address the Phrone of Grace, boping that the prisoner would find streagth to follow in n short prayer Mr, U. then mad > an impressive prayer, which juterested the uudienca if it did not the priso- ner. 'The prayer conciuded Mr. Hotchkiss con- versed \a moment inaudibly with Stont, and then suid that he desired him. to suy that he did not feel strength to pray, but heartily adopted the whoie prayer he had jast heard. The Deputy Sheriffs, officers and friends then shook hands with prizoner, and Deputy Sheriff Warner pat the rope about his neek aud drew the cap over his face. Wiule the officers ware pinioning bis arms, Stout stood quite erct, and remained in that attitude till the last. - He was quite firm in his demennior, and gave the same compla- cent smile to all in bidding adieu, that he gave niall times when conversing since his arrest. All being ready and the spectators stand- ing in breathless silence, at twenty minutes past three o'clock Sheriff Babcock pulled the fatal line, and Tra Stout was suspended three feet from the floor. Not a sound was heard in any divection, save the heavy fall of the weight which did the fatal work. | 'The death of the ill-fated man was not as sudden as could bo desired. His struggles for eight or ten minutes were severe and erused the spectators to turn away in disgust. His neck was probably not dislocated, and he died by a slow prozess of strangula- tion. | Dis. Hall, Avery, James and Miller stood near, and in eight minutes after the drop fell they said bis pulso was as full as in life. At the end of half an hour his body was cut down and pinced in the coffin, prepar- atory to being taken to the residence of his mother on Exchange street. And thus with the execution of Ira Stout ends the Littles tragedy. 'The chief retor -the man who plotted the murder and boldly executed it, has paid the penalty the law domanded-has surrendered his life and gone to his final account before the great unerring Judge ofall. His career of crime was quickly run-he reached the last and awful stage while yet a youth, or be- fore he had searcly attained his manhood. His fate will, we trust, prove a warning to all who are violating Iaw-who are begin- ing to tread the dangerous path he took while yat a boy. As the penalty of the law has been duly paid, and ss the public demand for the life of the murderar has been met, we trust the sorrowful spectacle this day witnessed in our city will not prove unprofitable to the living. PERSONAL, -It is reported that the Hon, John Minor Botts, of Virginia, has lost about $5,000 by the Fashion Races, Inst week. -Prof. Liebig, the celebrated chemist of Munich, will spend a part of the coming winter in this country, and has already been secured by several western associations for one or more lectures. -Walter Lewis, one of the two brothers who succeeded in marrying his master's daughter, after the elopement of last week, in Ohio, has been arrested in Cleveland for bigamy, it being alleged that he has a wife --with better claims to the tile than poor Miss Lyd-residing in that city. -Mr. O. B. Smith, of Marathon county, Wis:, met with a singular accident. He was standing on his wagon, arranging some boxes of goods, when his horses started, and before he was aware of his danger, his head struck a tree which brought it in con- tact with one the boxes, taking his right ear completely off, and leaving it upon the box. -Mr. Gurley, the Republican candidate for Congress in Cincinnati, was formerly a Universalist minister, One of his oppo- nents was trying to persuade an old Metho- dist not to vote for him. \Do you think you are furthering the cause of religion,\ said he, * by voting for a Universalist, one who does not believe in a hellt\ « Yes,\ was the old Methodist's reply; \if by the time Mr. Gurley has been in Congress a year he does not find out there is a hell, then I don't understand the present Admin- istration. - I shall vote for him.\ \Tes Maxty Art or -The dainty editor of the N. Y. Courier & Enquirer is out in favor ofa more gener- al cultivation of the \manly art of self-de- fence\ the fight between Heensn and Morrisey, it says : He Much has been said and written in favor of the \noble and manly art of self-defence.\ As an art, it is certainly deserving of some consideration, since it is a healthful recre- ation, and it is well that one should know how to defend himself from a pugilistic at- tack. - It would doubtless, bo better if our people would cultivate . the art more than they have; and that where pistols and knives are now used the fist should be substituted. 'The principles which have become attach- ed to this art are also in its favor. You ave not permitted to strike your antagonist below a certain mark, and you are disgraced if you hit him while he is down. - .Gontrast this with the governing principles in a rough and tumble fight in most parts of our coun- try, .The contestants kick, bite, gouge; and inflict all the injury in their power, deeming it: perfectly fair to jurap upon and stamp up- on the ohne whomay unfortanately be thrown down. - :The hore civilized () resort to pistols: and knives, and when the former failed to do its work, the latter is resorted to, when 'a scene worthy of a slauglte housé is frequently enacted. and Merrill, aod follow by his spiritual advi- | > the fact that he had a spell of fafoting about | Re; On reaching the gallows ho took a goat |- In an elaborate article concerning | aud | LUTELY SURE-to follow, th Plastory......
