EXECUTIONERS.

In Spain the Office of eXecutioner is
or was, hereditary, and in France it be.
came practically SO.
In earliest Roman days the sentence
Of death was carried into effect by the
accuscr and similar practice was in
vogue in the Crimea when that was q
kingdom.
Formerly in Germany the duty OF
exccutionerd devolved upon the youngest
member of the community, in Thurin-
gia upon the latest settler and in Fran
coma, justly, upon the newest married.
The dignity of the function of put
ting into effect Of the sentence of death
was better recognized in ancient times
than it is to-day. In old Greece the
presentation of the hemlock was an
honorable service and the man who
performed it was ranked by Aristotle
above ordinary magistrates.
In the code and sacred books of the
Parsees no provision is made for capital
punishment, but n culprit is to be
beaten with thongs number of blows,
proportioned to his otvensc, and if he
succumbs no one is to blame.
