A KNOTTY POlNT.—`three years ago, says a Paris
paper, the courts and tribunals of Austria were consulted upon the
" knotty" question, whether there was reason to change the mode of
executing capital Sentences, and substituting decapitation for sus-
pension. Their:reply was for the rejection of decollation (as prac-
tised in France), for the principal reason, that it accustomed the
people to the sight of blood, but at the same time they expressed a
wish that some modification might be made in the prevailing system
of strangulation, which tortured the victim too much. A year ago
a surgeon of the University- of Padua pi...pored to the Government
a new method of strangulation, for which he took care to have him-
self breveted. This method chiefly consisted of a mechanism which,
when the criminal was fastened to the gibbet, drew him violently by
the feet and the head, occasioned the dislocation of the vertebral
colunin on the level of the neck, and this occasioned instantaneous
death. This method, after being tried for one year, has just been
definitively adopted in the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, and the
surgeon who invented it has, to the great surprise of his companions
and compatriots, accepted the " honourable" office of " director of
executions," over which he will be bound to preside, in order to
superintend the application of lis plan.
[ADYERTISEI)IENT.]-11OLLOWAY'S PILLS AND. FE,
MALE COMPLAINTS.—So extraordinary are the known virtues Of
Holloway's Pills that a great many titled ladies and others are pm,
chasing them in large quantities to distribute to poor families. These
pills act in so wonderful a manner upon the system and constitution
of letwdes gene: ally (even on infantr at the breast), that whether
taken when centering into womanhood, or at the turn of life, or at any
other time, a few doses of this fine medicine will always produce the
desired effect, and restore health when every other remedy has failed.
Sold by all medicine vendors, and at Professor Holloway's esta-
blishment, 244, Strand, London.

ROBBERY BY POLICEMEN.—At the High Court of
Justiciary, Edinburgh, on Monday last, John Kane and James Mit-
chell, late constables in the police establishment, were charged wi t
breaking into the Total Abstinence Society, in Adam-square, when
on night duty, and stealing therefrom the society's box, containing a
quantity of books, cards, tracts, &c. The prisoners pleaded "Not
guilty," and the case went to trial ; when, after a lengthened ex.
initiation of witnesses, the charge was fully established against them,
and they were sentenced, Ratie to warted), and Mitchell to teu yeas'
tritasp9rtatton.
