The facts about the bloodhounds are sadly out of hArmon; with the ro mantic pictures that have been paint ed about his doings. Neither ink nor paint have been spared to put the alleged marvelous talents of this dog into an impressive and touching form, while scarcely any facts about his real life have found their way into print. People everywhere have an idea that this dog has long been in practioal use in the old countries, and south of Mason and Dixon's line in this country he was supposed to hare flourished j before j the war. In the Northern States it is a common belief that the race of ''coon-hunting blood hounds" is still very large in the South. The truth about the whole matter is that there never were any very, ana tne very lew bloodhounds that have found their way into this country have been imported from England since the! war.

As criminal executions in New York will Iteke pIacb After jAnuAry 1 by electricity, tuej Meioo-LegAl So ciety has determined upon a method which : will, in all probability, be adopted by the f authoritie. The process is j described in the following report i by j the committee which had the matter in charge V "The electric current, in passing through the body from one pole to another, undergoes more or less dif fusion ; through the tissues. A cur rent passing from the top of the head io the small of the back will be dif fused throughout a great part of the brain and all of the tissues of the neck. The medulla oblongata a part of the brain which is most vital together with all of the great nerves of the neck and the spinal cord, which exercise jurisdiction over the move ments of the lungs and heart will be thoroughly permeated by the current applied in this way. As the seat of consciousness is in the brainr And fsrticularly in the cortex of the cere rum, it is clear that this faculty of the mind will suffer at qnce if the current be sufficiently strong. The electric stream flows from the posi tive to the negative pole, and there might be some possible advantage in placing the positive pole on the ver tex of the head, nearest the centre of consciousness, although death in any case will be instantaneous. After mature deliberation we recom mend i that t he: death current be administered to the criminal iu the following manner: , "A stout Uble covered with rubber cloth, and having holes along its borders for binding for a strong chAir. should be procured. The prisoner lying on his back pr sitting should be firmly bound upon this table or in the chair. ! One electrode should be so inserted into the table, or into the back of the chair, that ii will impinge upon the ; spine between the sboul ders. I The head should be secured by means of a sort of helmet fastened to the Uble or bAck of ohAir, And to this helmet the other pole should be so joined as to press firmly with its ends upon the top of the head.! We think a chair is prefer able to a table. The rheophorea can be led off the dynamo through the floor or to another room, and the in strument for closing the circuit can be attached to the wall. "The electrodes should be of metal not over one inch in diameter, some what ovodal in shape, and covered with a thick layer of sponge or cha mois skin. The poles and the Bkin and hair at the point of contact should be thoroughly wet with warm water. The hair should be cut short "A dynamo generating an electro motive force of at least 3,000 volts should be employed. Either a con tinuous or AlternAting current may be used, but preferably the latter. The current should be allowed to pass for thirty ; seconds." It is said how that England gave the Germans a copy of her new rifle in return for the recipe for making melinite. COIORBSS- BBIEF SKETCHES OF THXM AS ; i IX THX WOBLB.
