Dscapitated.
NORWICH, Eng, Nov. 30.-A horrible
and sickening sight was witnessed to-day
at the hanging OF Robert Goodale, mar.
ket gardener, for the murder Of his wife,
at Wisheath, on September 18TH last. The
culprit, sincs his incarceration, had in
creased greatly in flesh and weighed fully
100 pounds. After the death warrant had
been read, and everything made ready,
the drop was sprung and the condemned
man fell a distance OF six feet. His heavy
weight caused the rope to rebound vic.
lently, Jerking Goodale's head completely
of his body. The headless trunk, to-
gcther with the head, fell upon the plat.
form oi the scatfold, the blood squirting
and gushing in all directions.
The severed head lay at the feet Of the
victim, the muscles OF the face comforting
in most hideous manner, while the eye.

Altogether the sight was most horrible,
and those who witnessed it were made
sick with horror, some OF them fainting
An inquest was Immediately held, and in
vestigation showed that Goodale's head
had been severed as though by surgeons

unusually small. The hangmnn was
sober and cool throughout. The Coroner's
jury e1onerated him from all blame. The
doctor present stated that while the man.

and bhormHn.
NEW YoRE, Nov. 3O.-There has been q
very decided preference manifested among
many Republicans here to-day in favor
OF Senator Sherman's election to the va
cancy created in the Senate Presidency.
They are strong in their belief in his sue
csss because OF the fact which they tell,
that at the beginning Of the Senate seq
sion in March last, the position was quiet
ly offered to him by the Republican senA-
tors before they knew that 1t would be
the policy OF Mr.. Hendricks to
stay In the chair continuously TO
prevent any Republican from being
made President pro ten. The place is
regarded by Mr.. Sherman's friends as a
stepping, stone to the nomination for Presi-
dent by his party. But at the same time
they argue that it would not be an ad-
vanCement for General Logan in that
direction. II the General is elected, they
say, he could not refuse denomination
for Vice President, and 30 would be taken
out OF the list OF Presidential possibilities.
From what is said hero the position lies
between Sherman aud Logan, unless both
should decide to support third man like
Allison rather than have conflict. Sher-
mans friends want him to get the place
in order to demonstrate his strength to the
public.

Strange Wagers.

The London swells are the most in
veterate betters in the world. Time hangs
so heavily on their hands that i'm the excite
ment of uncertainty they find a grateful re-
lief. A curious bet was made in one of the
London clubs some years ago that will
doubtless point moral. 1t was that a Ger
tain member could not, within two hours on
London bridge, sell 100 new guineaS at a
penny apiece. The man took his place on
the bridge with a little tray on which he
had the coins. He informed the paSSers-by
that they were genuine gold coins from the
Bank of England, and that they were TO be
had for penny each. The cartmen and
policemen laughed al him. When the time
had expired, such is human incredulity.
that he had sold but two, which a maid
servant bought TO amuse her two little
charges.
Another peculiar bet made in London was
by a well-knOwn barrister, for a large
amount, that he would at a certain hour
block Fleet street in the busiest part of the
day and at the narrowest point. Half an
hour before the appointed time he took his
stand on the opposite side of the street
from an insurance Office which had large
lion over the door. He was dressed like
necromancer, with long cloak, and wear
ing tall, pointed hat, and large glasses
over his eyes. Under one arm he carried
an enormous book and in his hand he held a
large telescope, which every few moments
he pointed at the lion, after inspecting the
book.
People gathered around, and he told
them that in the Book of Balderdash it was
written that in half an hour that lion
would wag his tail. Slowly walking up
and down, and every few minutes taking a
look at the lion through his glass. he at
tracted the attention of everybody, and the
awaiting crowd grew every moment denser.
Then wagons stopped to see what the
trouble was, and these damned the others,
until the whole street was crowded and i'm
passable. The barrister slipped away i'm the
crowd, but most obstinate jam ensued.
and it was more than an hour before the
police could clear the thoroughfare.
