make to me, I think it is my duty not to obtrude upon the
Court any observations of mine upon this great mass of
evidence. Undoubtedly there was a time when I Was dis-
posed to enter into a commentary upon the whole of this
evidence; but, since you have given me that intimation, I
shall not attempt it. It appears to me certainly a case of
very great mystery. Mr. Trafford—It is one which certainly
Johnson, you are fully aware of the charge against you, that
requires further investigation. (To the prisoner)
of administering poison to your husband, and thereby caus-
ing his death. (Prisoner—% did not do it.) It is not for me
to say whether that charge is sufficiently proved before me,
beyond saying it is sufficiently proved to send you to a higher
tribunal, there to take your trial. The facts which have
been proved before me, uncontradicted as they now remair,
certainly prove your conduct to have been that of a woman
guilty of great impropriety • but whether you have coin-
milted the awful crime withi which you are charged, and
thereby caused the death of your husband is known only to
Hint who is above and to yourself, as far as appears at
present. It will be for a jury of your country to say whe-
ther they believe you have been guilty or not. You now
stand committed to the next assizes to take your trial for
the wilful murder of your husband, William Henry Johns-,n.
You may stand down. The prisoner, who maintained the
calm,- collected demeanour which has characterised her
throughout the whole of these proceedings, then left the dock, without manifesting the slightest discomposure. The
remainder of the witnesses were then bound over to prose-
cuteat the assizes. The prisoner was conveyed to the Kirk-
dale kaol by the half-past two o'clock train.—Manchester
Guardian.

THE CONSEQUENCE OF NONINTERFERENCE.--
The returns of the past quarter prove that nothing effeetual
has been done to put a stop to the disease, suffering, and
death in Which so many thousands perish ; that the improve-
ments, chiefly of
showy, superficial, outside character, have
not reached the homes and habits of the people; and that
the consequence is that thousands, not only of the children,
but of the inni and Women themselves, perish of the diseases
formerly so fatal, for the same reasons, in barracks, camps,
gavls, and ships.—Report of the Registrar-General,lB46.
