OPINIONS OF PRUsSIAN EXECUT1oNER.-
Reindel, 1.-The Prussian headsman, lives in a
very fine house in the neighborhood of Ha-
velberg, and is well off, but his neighbors
studiously refrain from holding any inter-
course with him. He says he never yet
met with criminal who was to be behead-
ed but whose courage finally gave way. He
thinks hanging would be better mode of
execution, nearly every criminal being
afraid of the pain which they think the
axe, in cutting off their heads, would give
them. He says the most trying moment
for him is always that Of his confronting
his victim for the first time for the purpose
of looking at his neck and cutting off his
hair.
All the women whom he beheaded, he
says, tainted as soon as they caught sight
of him and learned who he was and what he
wanted of them. He denounces as a wan
ton cruelty the practice Of reading once
more to the criminal the whole long SEN
tence passed upon him after he has reached
the scatfold. He thinks that there is still
sensibility in the head for several minutes
after it has been severed from the trunk.
A woman beheaded in Mecklenburg in 1866
had tainted on the scatfold, and seemed
perfectly lifeless when she was tied to the
block. After her head was off he picked it
up, and saw to his horror that the eyes open
ed slowly, with an expression of great
agony.
He thinks the most humane way of exc
cutting criminals would be to kill them in
an hour or an hour and a, half after their
sentence han bean announced IN them and
not compel them to walk or ride to a distant
place Of execution, but to execute them, if
possible, in their own prison; for the walk
to the scaffold, he says, is always dread
full torture for the criminal, few OF the
strongest men being able to retain their
while the women, without ex-
:eption, have to be carried to the block.
he says, feeble women arouse
ut the last moment and offer
The most desperate resistance, so that he
and his assistants once ortwice were hardly
able to fasten them to the block.

Antics OF the Lightning.
MIDLAND, June Is, Is

MIDLAND, June Is, 1868.
I, the night of the l4th, Sunday, we
witcssed in Midland one of the most extra
ord AIRY exhibitions OF electrical pheno-
mel perhaps ever beheld in a temperate
cline, and at so high latitude. About
sock in the afternoon a low-lying, long,
sinus mass of dark clouds seemed TO come
climlc up against the wind over the val
ley ole Tittibiwasse from the southeast,
meet O light fugitive series of clouds
from opposite direction, but apparently
fying,igher. An electrical skirmish
seemeto commence an occasional flash
and . of thunder, not very loud, would
be tolhd by slight shower, but the
clouds seemed unusually disturbed and
mixed up. This sort of thing kept on, va
riel by an occasional CLEAN OF brilliant
sunshine till about dark. Then colder
blast from the southeast set doors bang
ing in the houses, and seemed TO raise the
deuce aloft. The flashes became frequent,
the thunder heavy, and the rain would
suddenly fall in torrents, and as suddenly
cease.
About IL the ball seemed to open in
! earnest. The lightning not only became
tconstant, but four, five, six, and even seven
FLASHES would shoot from different parts Of
the sky ut the same time; round the hori-
zon they chased or crossed each others
path like fiery serpents. From zenith to
nadir they poured like falling shower of
meteors. Up again they shot like ire-balls
tossed by hilarious multitude on gala
night, till the whole armament was one
blaze of continuous light, and flash OF
darkness could be had only about every ten
minutes, so constant were the emissions Of
the electric fluid. Having got up out Of
bed in utter amazement' at the glory and
magpifcence OF the scene, tried and read
,frou my bedroom window at the Greasy
House ten lines of the Free Press, lying on
my dressing table, without intermission.
The scene outside was frightfully grand.
One Instant, as q fash more than usually
brilliant would start from the eastern sky,
the sombre pines to the west would shine
like frosted silver against the darkened
heavens behind. The next instant fash
from the west would reveal tho same pines
as O. giant group of deepest, inkiest hue
against sky Of molten, cleaning gold.
Buildings at o distance would start into
sudden light, till you could perceive their
maIiest features US if viewed by tele-'
COPE in the daytime then as suddenly
one down into q lower shade, being out
hone by another flash beyond them. And
II this time the sky, into its Utmost re-
es.e. which you could see, was one
,ethiDg mass Of dense cloud, surglDs miner

LEXINGTON, Va, July II, 1868. :
EEiors Of the Dispatch:
In your issue of last Thursday appears a
letter from this place signed " Rockbridge, .
which confirms the following statement in
reference to the company Of infantry sta
toned here:
"The Irishmen among them held Fee
MAN Indignation meeting the other day, at
which they denounced in no measured
terms language used in Frazcr's speech
comparing the negro and irish"
As this charges the troops with de-
nmuucing a Government oflicial-conduct
highly unbecoming in soldiers-l have in
vcstigntcd the matter, and find that the
statement is entirely false. Lieutenant
Jordan and the lrislrmcn in his company
deny that Euch meeting was held.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
JACOB WAGNER,
First Lieutenant Of Twenty ninth United
States Infantry.
Tlt is but n simple act Of justice in us 10
publish the above, yet We must say for our
correspondent that lie was misled by others.
