The two following paragraphs are extracted from
letters from Munich and Dresden :
" MUNICH, SEPT. 10.—When the scaffold for the
execution of the murderer, Treiber, was erected, several
' ladies' ascended it, and sat down in the seat of blood,'
(the chair to which the criminal is tied to receive the
fatal stroke,) to see how they looked there.' While
the procession was going through the streets to the
place of execution, a woman excited the charity of the
crowd by representing a child she carried as that of
the criminal. Around the scaffold several robberies
were committed, and some pickpockets arrested. A
peasant who had let out his waggon in standings was
nearly beaten to death because the horses moved on
and threw down some of his customers; atter the exe-
cution men and women rushed to dip handkerchiefs
and rags in the flimiog blocd, as remedies for the
epilepsy and consumption, and as a means of drawing
lucky numbers in the lottery."
" DRESDEN, SEPT. 10,—At 7 o'clock this morning we
had the sad spectacle of a public execution. The
criminal was a single woman, who had murdered her
illegitimate child, two and a half years old, in a most
barbarous manner, that it might not beau obstacle to her
marriage. The execiLion, which was by the sword,
miscarried in a frightful manner, though the headsman
is a practical hand, having already beheaded 27 persons.
The woman made a movement at the moment the blow
was struck, and it fell on the back of her head, and she
shrieked aloud, to the terror of the spectators. The
head only tell at the third stroke. The executioner
could hardly be recognised, he was so covered with
blood. Notwithstanding the frightful circumstances at-
tending the execution, the crowd behaved with great
decorum."
