Description: A CULPRIT CONDUCTED TO TRIAL.
He is preceded by a man, who strikes upon a gong, in oer to draw upon the offeder the notice of the public. Two others walk after him, one of whom is employed in keeping up his face with a bundle of cleft canes. A little red banner is fastened on each side of the culprit, to render him more conspicus; and his hands are tied behind his back.

UN ACCUSÉ CONDUIT EN JUGEMENT.

Il est précédé d'un homme, qui frappe sur un gong, pour attirer sur le malfaiteur l'attention du public: derrière lui marchent deux autres, dont l'un lui fait soutenir le pas avec un faisceau de cannes fendues.
L'accusé a, à chacun des côtés, un petit drapeaux rouge, pour le faire mieux remarquer; et il a les mains attachées derrière le dos.
