Execution by the GuiIio,lne.

A friend once described to us an
execution which he witnessed In
Paris, outside the walls of the city
prison, and in the public street. 1t
took place in the gray of dawn,
and at the precise hour indicated in
the sentence. A squad of soldiers
filed out of the gates, and i'll a
twinkling put together the ma.
chinery of the guillotine, some of
them sp.inkling sawdust on the
pavement while it was being put
up. Before this was fairly finished
the gate swung open, and the crim-
inal and executioner and the spiri-
tual adviser marched out. What
ever religious exercises were essen
tial had been. attended to within
the prison. The criminal, with his
hands bound behind him and cap
drawn over his head, was led forth,
his body bent forward over the car
riage, which, as he pressed it, shot
forward on noiseless wheels, and
the knife fell with a, glitter of
its keen, polished edge; the head
dropped into the basket awaiting it,
the body was placed in q coffin, the
machinery taken down, the saw.
dust swept up, and the whole scene
was over. Within ten minutes, by
the watch of the witness, every
trace of the execution was over.
The soldiers, the priest, the execu-
toner had disappeared, and there
was not even o drop of blood upon
the pavement to indicate that q
tragedy had been there enacted. -
