every one must see, when it is remembered that
most of the business transactions OF the Govern'

states that all these visitors 80 armed which is
very great untruth, as every Northern and South
ern man in Washington knows We never heard
of such a thing as Southern man going armed to
Washington, unless it were for the purpose of
duel, nor do we believe that Southern men in that
city ever carry arms unless upon special occa-
sions, when mahogany stocks and percussion

A REMARKABLE ExECUTfoNER. we have OBJ
served several wonderful stepies of late respect
ing tho skill of the Chinese exeoutioners. who it
il said can strike off the heads of their victims
so sklfully that the poor fellows themselves nev-
or discover their loss until moment or two after.
they are dead We recall to mind, however, the
story of a German exeoutioner. who far surpass-
cd ,he Chinese in professional dexterity. Upon.
one occasion IL happened that criminal who
was condemned to death had singular itching
TO play at ninepins; and he implored permission
TO play once more ut his favorite game before he
died Then he said he would submit to his fato
without a murmur The judge. thinking there
could be no harm IN humoring him, granted his
last prayer, and, upon arriving at the place of
execution. he found every thing prepared for the
game the pins being set up and the bowls all
ready. ..f
He commeneedahis favorite sport with. 'entha-
siasm After while. the Sheriff observing that
he showed no inclination to desist made n sign
to tho exeeatiener TO strike the fatal blow while
he stopped for bowl. The executiener did so,
but with such exquisite dexterity that the culprit
did not notice or feel it. lie thought indeed
that cold breath of air was blowing upon his
neck; and drawing himself back with a shrug.
his head dropped forward into his hands. He
naturally supposed that twas bowl which he
had grasped and sexing it firmly rolled it at the
pins An of them fell; and the head was heard
to exclaim it rebounded from the farther wall,
"Hurrah! I've won the game"--Portfotio. 9s7
