FRANKFURT, JULY 8. Bcauchamp, the assassin of Col. Sharp, has expiated his crimes. The sentence of the law was executed Upon him at the iovk ol the Lexington and "Woodford roads, in the edge of Frankfort, at half past one o'clock yesterday. An idea had onc abroad, thai he would address the people, at the gallows ; but he made no at cmptof the kind ; he was evidently, too feeble, probably rendered so by his attempt to commit suiede, by taking laudanum and bv stabbing himself. Soon after arriving at the place of ex ccution, he observed that he wished to die; and requested the music which belonged to two independent companies, which had ben called out to pidci ve order, to pb.y ' Buunapart's retreat from Moscow," which having heard he desired the officers to perform the execution and took h i 3 d e a t h . Corn me n 'a tor. DEATH OF MRS.BEAUCIIAMP. During the trial ol Bcauchamp his ife was brought to this t ivn, chaiged with being .ccessaiy to his enme and commilted prison wi h him. She was ex nmiued and acquved ; but, at her own solicitation, and his, was pcimitted lo return to his ceU, where she remained until the dny i his execution. They bolh con ' Mantly ,udd out the idea that they were . . a: . n. 1. . .1 ... . 1 .1 1 . , to die together; and, on Wednesday last, i aopi ehensions that thev would make a' tempts upon their own Uvea began to be placed m a 100111 wirr. then';, to prevent any improper condue,. 1"!: y were, however, m posr.essi of a hi tie of laudanum ; and o:; Thursday liight, look each, a Iai i;( dose, so large that it operated an an cnu f:c ; and laih d to produce the effect hich they rxpr; ted.

They presently heard some noise, audi reiuinia.:, four.d that Mrs. Be.oichamp had been I'ao'ocd in tlie left Inc.. , . ilh a butcher knife, and Beaueinmn had i; Ho led sotne woun.ls upon hiuself; not however, either mortal or dangerous. Mrs. Be.auch imp's WvOinil mzrtcl : she lived but an hour or two. So pei"r-!ed Ann Beauchamp, one of the u.osl unfortunate of Wotr.en. Whether she died by her own hand, or bv that of herhusb .n l, we have not been able to ascertain with cen-.iinty. His said that his account was, that she he; self inflicted tlie wound; anJ that, when he attempted to stab himtelf, she caught his

arm, and prevented nun itoni doing 11 cifectually. Mrs. Beauchamp was removed to a room of the jailor's house. A reveiend gentleman who was picsent, speaks of the dying scene, as one of the most touching he had ever witnessed. She was anxious to see her husband. He was brought in She had become speechless, perhaps insensible. He was placed at her side, upon the bed. He placed one hand upon her forehead with the other, held fur pul-c until she expire,!. Then 41 Farewell," said he u farewell, child of sorrow ! Tare well, child of pctfccution and

misfortune 1 For thee I have lived for thec I die." Twice he embraced her, Sc was then removed.- Ihr A'eu York, June 26. By the arrival

The propositions by M. dc Minziacky. in the interview of the 5th of April, turned to three following points, which the Emperor of Russia indicated as the indispensable conditions to the complete re-cstabiisement of the fiicndly relations between Russia and the Porte : 1st. The entire re-establishment of the state of things existing in Moldavia and Wallaci, betnre the insurrection of 1821, and principally for alt that concerns the number and i ajognization of the iniiita'y ptovincrs.

To send Envoys to? the Russian frontiers, to commence with Russian commissioners negotiations on the points which hive been agitated from i&;6 to 1821, and to conclude definitive arrangements. Yesterday the Reis EiT:ndi visited the interpreter of the Russian Legation, and made known to him, in the p. e-.e-ce of the Minister of the Interior, that the Porte

From the rapidity with which the flames spread,

6 very small portion only of goods and furniture in them were saved, and that in a damaged state. Had the fire crossed Boundary street, which was very much to be apprehended

at one moment, and which was prevented by the two brick houses at trie corner of King street, it is impossibJe to say where t.ie devatation would have stopped.

Some days since we gave a brief account of the destruction of the office of the Colonial Advocate, in Yoik, Upper Canada We have now some further particulars of this outrage, from which it appears that the office was attacked by a mob, constituted of some ol the chief men holding offices under the government, and in the presence of two magistrates, Sc that a great quantity of the materials weie tumbled into Lake Ontaiio. It wu supposed by many that Sir R Maitlaud, the Lt. Governor of U. C was one of the principal instigators of this disi acelut transaction. The Editor and his family were absent at the time the office v. a- destroyed. The Advocate had '.lie most extensive cii cmat'or. any paper in U C.
