"VT flow II Experimented Cpna th Poeksta of ma Igaorsat Crowd, A short time ago a qnack experi mented in Lambeth with considerable success upon the pockota of att awe stricken crowd." After a rol'nilnary harangue and a terse little lecture on the viscera, which the charlatan sketched in with colored crayon upon a black board on whioh the human skel eton was outlined In white paint, the fellow came to business. "I am eoinji to demonstrate to you," said he, "by a startling experiment upon one of you bystanders, that my miraculous remedy can cure all diseases of tho lungs and chest. Now. whoever s got a bad eouffh or cold on the chest let stand forward." There was some little hesi tation and a rood deal of gi!rlin2. "Don't be afraid, my friends," said the quack; "it's all free, gratis, for nothing. Let any afuicted person come forward and I'll show him the nature of his dis rder, and give him a packet of my ung healers for nothing." At last a man with a violent cold and cough came forward. The quack doctor pro tended to sound his chest with a steth oscope ot almost pantomimic propor tions and infur. ued the staring crod that the patient was in a galloping consumption. "My friend." said tho qnack to hi? unfortuna'e victim, "so terrible is thit ilioaso that you can actually see it," ilu handed a gl:tS4 tube to the patient and then poured a pint of clear water into a lar 'e tumbler. "Just you blovv nto that water, my friend," ha cried. The men obeyed and the water grew uiscolored, turbid and at last as white as if it had been mixed with milk.

The) punishments were sometimes se vere, in consequence of the answers extorted under the induenos of the smarting whip to interrogatories put by members of the association. Mr. Lynch Informed me that he ha I never in any case given a vote for the punifhment of death. Some, however, he acknowledged, had been hanged, but not in the oniumim way. A horeo becaitie their executioner. The manner was thus: The person to be hange l was placed on a horse, with I1I9 lian.U tied behind him. A rope was tied abo.it his n.k. and its other end, not too long, was fastened to the limb of a tree over his head. In this situation the person was left. When the horse, i 1 pursuit of food or for any other causa, moved, the criminal was left suspended by his neck. Tills nas called aid.nj; the civil authority.
