Thirty-three Communists shot down
i'm q mass.

The following dispatch is copied
from the st. Lor's Democrat:
Paris, May 31.-The most revol-
ting sight occurred this forenoon on
the plaza in front of the Hotel de
Vile. Thirty-three communists, a.
mong whom were seven women, were
shot in a body by a company OF sol
diers. Around three sides Of the
square, troops to the number of 1900
we're drawn up under command of
Colonel Guizot. At ghto'clock the
prisoners, who hac been confined i'll
coal cellars back of the porters lodge
in the Hotel de Vile, were brought
out. their hands tied behind their
backs, and then marched out by the
main gateway, through a double file
of soldiers, and having reached the
center OF the wide area in front of
the Hotel de Vile, were ranged in a
row and made to kneel down close
together. There was nothing on the
whole plaza but three empty scav-
enger carts, which stood in a line at
the rear of the prisoners.
When the company was in line
and ready to fire, Colonel Gnizot
stepped forward and told the prison
ers, in a few words, that they were
to suffer death for having been
caught in the act of setting fire to
buildings and dwellings in Paris.
At the same moment the women ut
tered piercing screams, and beganto
sway themselves back and forth.
An officer straightforward and made
them keep still with the fat OF his
sword. A few moments afterwards
a yolley was fired, and when the
smoke cleared away a most horrible
sight was presented. Three of the
women who were in the middle of
the row, between some men, were
still living and writhing in awful
agony. A second volley was fired,
and a third, and not until the sixth
did all the prisoners cease to live.
The dead bodies were then fiunginto
three scayenger carts and carried
away to be buried.
