The good old times must, in very
many respects. have been very bad

following extract from the lnstue'
tions given in lTi6 by the Paris
Parliament TO Monsieur de Paris,
that is to say the Partisan exeeu'
toner, in regard to the course he
was 10 pursue in breaking criminals
After undressing the prisoner,

will be sufficient for the upper arm,
two for the left elbow, two for the

will be on the left hip.bone, three
on tho leit knee,joint; two, well
laid on, on the left leg, and ono on
the left foot. "Monsieur do Paris

der. Tho greflire Of the court will
see to il that these instructions are
strictly carried out. The screams
Of tho culprit must not bc needed
by Monsieur" nor must he give
him the coup de grace before finish
ing on tho right shoulder. The
coup de grace is to consist OF three
heavy blows, to be delivered on the
breast of the prisoner; if the priso'
ner is woman, tho coup de grace
will be delivered under her ribs,
lest her bosom should break the
force of the blows. Tho body
of the culprit will be delivered to
the medical faculty of Paris, which
will give report on the condition
of the corpse TO tho grcffire of the
Parliament.
This horrible mode ofpunishment
was witnessed on IN average once
IL week by the Parisians. One Of
the last victims of this atrocious
cruelty was a poor servant girl, who
had been convicted of stealing two
or three dresses of her mistress.
She was broken on the wheel bo.
cause larccnies by domestics had
become very numerous in Paris.
Her agony lasted seven minutes,
and a stream of blood, spouting
from her mouth after her knee Joint
had been crushed, drowned her
heart t-rending cries. Queen Ma.
ria Antoinette had been appealed
to to save the girl and haughtily re.
fused. This was aftorward remcm.
bered against her. During the
reign of Louis XVI about three
thousand persons We're actually
broken on tho wheel. Such were
the "pood old times" in France.

Before three years the permanent

At four years old the permanent
division next to the nippers are cut.
At five the mouth is perfect, the

pleted. EU EEE
At six the hollow under the mp.

showing the mark. ~
At eight the mark has gone from
the corners and the horse is said TO

SUBMARINE CABLE BETWEEN SAS
FRANCIsco AND CHINA.-lt is pro-
posed to lay a submarine telegraph
cable from San Francisco via Japan
to China. This will be almost q
necessity when the Pacific Railroad
is completed and all of the traffic Of
those countries passes over the
American continent. At present
the San Francisco merchant can
only telegraph TO hiscorresPOndonts
in China by the way of New York,
London. the Red Sea and India
The schemes is deemed practicable n
this wiSe. A cable 10 the Sandwich
Islands will be bat 2400 miles,
thence to the Loo Choo Islands, with
branches 10 Japan and China, would
nscesitate cables Of not over 1000
miles earh. We are glad 10 know
that the project is so early agitated,
and hope it win be consummatei.

The Waxahachie Argus and the
Dallas Herald boast of the swiftncss
of the compositors in their respec-
tive offices. On that subject they
may as well close up. Our junior,
(Mr. McCutchan,) can set up 1900
ems of type of solid long primer,
of this narrow measure, in an hour,
and for ten consecutive hours can
average 1900 ems per hour. r. W.
L., Jr., is a dot, and only dot, be-
hind him. And then the proof is
excellont. We have known Nc to
set three galleys, with not over three
unimportant errors. If the juniors
do SO well, what do our cotempora-
rics suppose the Senior could accom-
