They were six in miitber,nnd all appeared to havo been wclftPed with opium, Theexecutioners were two mon in white jackets and straw hats.arnied with swords, which, while they wero. waiting for their victs, they handed round among the spectators, The prisoners were ranged in two, lines just above, highwatermark, and tho executioners, after removing their hats, took one line each, and proceeded calmly t smite off the heads of the men in the baskets. Executioner number one Bovercdhis first head at a blow, mado an ineffectual but terrible cut at tho second, passed on to the third, and tb&yteturneJ to the second man and doßoorately sawed through his throat.
