EXECUTION OF A FEMALE IN FRANCE:!'
On the 19th instant, at noon precisely, the sentence el
death was carried into execution, in the town of Neverst,
on the person of the widow Guyonnet, convicted of poison'
ing her husband. Like every other. French criminal, sl,e;
had appealed against her sentence, although the finding 0';
the jury was upon the clearest evidence. Her appeal was'
rejected by the Court of Cassation. Since that period 0.
considerable delay had intervened; and an erroneol•
belief pretty generally prevailed that her sentence won't
be ultimately commuted. For some time past, full of CO
fidence that she would obtain a commutation of the extra]•
penalty, she had resumed all the original gaiety of her elle"
racter. " She could not believe," she averred, " that if she
was destined to end her days on a scaffold, they won't.
have taken so much pains to render her accouchement
favourable," The principal reason of the delay in,
carrying her sentence into execution had been the cir',
cumstance that she was expected to become a mother,
When the fatal period arrived, the proper officer entered'
the prison at half-past eight o'clock. and read to her the
decree which announced to her the final rejection of her
appeal, and the confirmation of the capital sentence. UPI:
e receivin this terrible intelligence she at once perceive t,
that she had only a few minutes to live. A nervous tre-
mor seized her, and she fell to the graund senseless. Ng'
verthcicss she supported with much resignation the fright'
ful preparations of the toilette, and upon its terminatiett
mounted with a tolerably steady step the fatal vehicle.
where her confessor took his place by her side. Will
i
she arrived at the place of suffering, she gave hero,'
quietly into the hands of the executioner, and in a fee
minutes after had ceased to live. The rain fell all the
time in torrents, but an immense crowd had assembled-
For 11 years past there had not been at Nevers a single
apital punishment.

Among the subjects discussed in the last letter 9,
from India is the very great inefficiency of the medical'
service, which seems to be ascribed generally to an lII'
judged economy on the part of the Government at 130':
gal. It is said, that the demand for medical men is s°
great, that scarcely a day pases without scme applies'
tion from one station or another, while no aid can be
given. Every merchant ship that has brought a sure)!
into harbour, has, it seems, been deprived of him t°
.
meet the demand. Complaints are made that the nog:
of medical teen is by no means what it ought to be, thiat
.
they are overlooked in every direction, and that sickness
and mortality have increased among them to an unpre.
cedented degree during the last eighteen months. IV'
other complaint among persons connected with Inch*
and one that is discussed in the Indian journals, is t"
insufficiency of European officers on regimental dutY,
in the native army—a defect which is considered
particularly alarming, since the only acknow ,
mode of preserving the fidelity of the native
troops is an effective establishment of European officer:
It is observed, that as the natives are progressing in civil":
sati,in, particularly those of the army, they will become
more conscious of their own power, and will therefor.°
need a larger portion of European officers. With their
pay it seems they are satisfied enough, but the alleged
cause of their mortification is, that the consideration for:
merly shown for their welfare has almost entirely vanishe°',
Those acquainted with India say that the interest of the.
Indian troops in the welfare of their European officers le,
very great, and that they conclude, that when their sucte—
riots are not respected, they are neglected themselves'
In addition to the scarcity of European officers, it is said
that the power and authority of the regimental officers beg
been so much diminished that it is little more than nominal,'
The tendency of this is to render the native troops indly
forent for those placed over them, and even to regard till.®
with contempt, which, it is said, has actually been the case.
