A woman, named Henry, who had been condemned
to death for murder, was executed at Cri en, four days ago.
Having ascended the scaffold, in the presence of an im-
mense crowd, her head was placed in the proper posi-
tion by the executioner, but in consequence of the
rain that had fallen, the ground on which the guillo-
tine stood gave way, and the knife was thrown out of
its equilibrium. It was, necessary, therefore, to
unbind the criminal, and set the machine in order.
Whilst this was being done, the poor wretch re-
mained waiting in horrible agony of mind. At length
she was replaced in the guillotine, and in a moment
her head was severed from her bodY.—French paper.
PRICES TWENTY YEARS' SIN C E.—Notwithstand-
ing the fall in the prices of sheep and cattle (about
twenty per cent. on all but very fine fat oxen), the
markets are much higher than they were some years
since. An extensive sheep farmer said to us the other
day—" I went to Edinburgh in 1822, to see George
the Fourth, and sell my Cheviot wethers : the price I
got was 15s. 10c1. each. I went again this month, to
see Queen Victoria, and. to sell my wethers—exactly
the same sort as before—and my price was 245. 6d."—
