TO be quite numerous. One old woman was
peddling about biography of the victim, and
another endeavoring TO let her stands and
chairs, both screaming their merchandise at
the top Of their voices.
At eight o'clock precisely, came the guard
of cavalry, at a fast trot, surrounding the COW
cred cart, which contained the prisoner and a
priest. The vehicle was backed up to the
scaffold, the door behind was opened, the
priest descended, and after him the criminal.
The latter mounted the scaffold, accompanied
by two officers, with firm step. He was
clothed in his usual dress, blouse Of blue
cloth, but without hat. The hair was cut
short, that it might form no impeachment to his
speedy exit from the world. The officers
quickly drew the blouse over his head, and
he stood exposed with naked shoulders. He
then began 10 scream, with the Intention oil
making himself heard by the crowd, as tho't,
but like many unaccustomed orators, ignorant
how to use his voice. 1t might have been an
ehultlon of either anger or fear. In France

to check the least movement, was adjusted

by the officers. 1t was instantly disengaged
and dropped, the head discovered completed
fell into basket, and this officers duty being
finished, he descended. Two minutes die
not elapse from the time he arrived, till hi
head was detached from his body. Withou
the smallest loss Of time it was tnmbled int
a vehicle similar to hay cart, his body tip

IL Preserve MM.-At this warm season, it
may be interesting to some of Our readers to
know that Johnson, in his Agricultural Chem
istry, says:
''An easy way of preserving milk or cream
sweet for long time, or removing the souI-
ness when it has already come on, is TO add
to 1t small quantity of the common soda,
pearl ash, or magnesia of the shops. Enough
is added, when little of the milk poured into
boiling water no longer throws up any cnrd.
If milk be introduced into bottles, be then
well corked, put into pan with cold water.
and gradually raised to the boiling point, and
after being allowed TO cool, be taken out and
set away in cool place. the milk may bepIe-
served perfectly sweet for upwards Of half
years

EXECUTION BY THE GUILLOTINE

The Partisan correspondent of the New

of man, which he lately witnessed, and the
instrument by which it was performed, as fol-
lows:
On platform erected four or five feet above
the ground, supported by legs, and surround
ed by railing, was a frame work rising to
the height of between eight and ten feet
Those who have witnessed the operation of a
Spite driver will conceive very good idea of
its action and appearance. The whole was
painted red. The cutting instrument resem-
bled yankee hay cutter, except that it was
much larger. One corner being placed lower
down than the other, facilitated its operation,
The axe or knife was fixed into heavy block
of metal, and drawn up nearly to the top o.
the frame. There it remained dull and sui.
