AN EXECUTION INJAPAN.-An execution
by decapitation has taken place within the
walls Of the prison yard at lobe. The man
who suffered death was Amamiya Chuye-
mon, who on the LIST of March last enticed a
boy, Is years old, into his house in Minami
Nakadori, Sanchome, and there strangled
him, In order TO rob him OF yen 5000 In
japanese paper money, which the boy was
sent TO change at bank In Eonchodori.
closure, divided from the rest OF the prison
yard by fence OF boards about Is feet high
IL contains only small open shed and post
for stranglfng those who are condemned to
be executed in that way. At one side OF the
Enclosure lay small straw mat about three
feet square, and on this the executioner's
sword, wrapped in yellow cotton cloth.
Next TO the mat stood the execu-
tioner, q stalwart, middle-aged man,
dressed In blue uniform, with a cap.
Presently Amamiya was led in, blndfolded,
dressed In a new sky blue robe with viii te
tassels, his legs and head bare, and his hands
on the mat, and in that position he muttered
a short prayer, the executioher, with a naked
sword in his right hand, standing on his left,
and the executiOner's assistant To his ri ght.
The prayer over, the assistant pulled the
doomed mans robe down his shoulders, and
put his head In a right position; down came
the sword with a flash, a slight thud was
heard as IL struck the neck, and Amamiya's
head rolled on the ground, while the trunk
the severed neck. The assistant executioner
seized the head by the hair, took of the cloth
from the face, threw from a bucket standing
near him couple Of ladies OF water on the
neck, and held up the lucid face TO the gaze
OF the spectators.

THE GRAssHoPPKR's ADvENr.-We are
informed by j. A. Wright that from simp-
sons Park 70 Grass Valley the air is fairly
horse through millions OF the insects, and for
several miles was Obliged TO force his way
through an atmosphere OF grasshoppers. Mr..
Wright In well known rs man OF veracity-
one whom the Sazerac Lying Club would
blackball Without Questfon-but the account
he gives OF the number Of grasshoppers he
saw yesterday seemed almost incredible. In
that 1t was necessary 70 blast them out with
giant powder In order TO keep the roads open,
and the mass would dull q drill in every two
inches. The grasshoppers at Simpsons Park
are, OF course, not so thick as this, but from
Mr.. virgins account they are 50 numerous
as TO render IL necessary for q horseman to
carry moving machine on the horn OF his
saddle In order 20 NOW out q path for bis
