with the giving of the signal tbe iron
weight In tbe bar went down and the body

and suddenly a stout vigorous man was
changed to a dangling heap of clothes.
With tbefalline of tbe weizbt Ruloirwai

greatest criminal of bis day. and instead of
confessing in tbe presence of bis fellow men

Of bis coins hence we can sneak: of hi8

Hulolr answered "Noth Ing, sir."
Sheriff Martin then said "It Is about
twenty-six minutes sooner than I designed
to have tbe execution lake place: have vou
anything to say?"
Ruloff said "Nothing.
Kheriff Martin then said.- If it Is not
your wish to say anything I will proceed.')
Kuloff repeated "Notbinf."
Tbe white cap was then traced over his
bead, he being attended. on each side bv a
Deputy Sheriff.
Some little delay occurrlai. ha said hla
last words "I can't stand still."
After tbe drop fell ba breathed convul
sively for one minute ; bis right band was
jerked out of bis pocket by tbe ascension
and with great difficulty be put it baak.
While hanging Drs. Chittenden and Burr

At twenty minutes after drop fell, he w
pronounced dead. At 23 minutes be was
lowered so that bis feei nearly touched tbe
ground and at 33 minutes be was lowered
into bis ooflin, a new, neat cherrv one.
Tbe body was then placed In tbe jail where
It will remain till Friday, when It will be
buried In the, old cemeterr bv tbe sheriff

Livingstone, tbe Alrican trevefler, de
scribes an ingenlousjmetbod by which the
Africans obtain water In thedciort: Tbe
women tie a bunch of grass to a reed about
two feet long, and iusert It in a bole dug
as deep ss the arms will reach, theorem
down tbe wet sand around it. Applying
tbe nioutb to the free end of tbe
reed, tbey form a. vacuum in tbe grass be
oeatb, in which the water collects, and in a
short time rises to tbe mouth. It will be
perceived tbat this simple, but tiuly pbilu;
sophical and effectual mot had might have
been applied In many cases in different
countries,, where water was greatly needed
to the saving of life. It seems wonderful
tbat it should have been now first known to
tba world, and tbat it should have been
habitually practiced in Africa probably for
centuries. It seems worthy of beiug partic
ularly noticed, that it nay no longer be
neglected from ignorance. It may be high
ly important to travelers in our deserts and
prairies, in some parts of wblcb water i
known to exist below tbe surface.

released, knew no bouods. Titusville Her

Tbe Boston Advertiser or Tuesday says:
"The following Is a copy of a paper picked
up on tbe shore at Shediac on the south

'March 21, 1871 Citv of Boston .
Ship sinking: over ball full now. Good.bve

Tbe original pao er is in the hands of a
Catholic priest at Shediac, wbo sent the
above dispatob te bis brother, a member of
the bar in this city. A copy wss also sent
to tbe agent of the Ioman line. The name
signed to tbe paper appeared in tbe list of
