o. man named Owen Bruen yesterday morn
ing appeared before Recorder Baldwin to ma Ike a
complaint against a free woman of color named
Jane, residing near Poydras market. Mr.. b., who
is poor man, stated, that about the last of Rebru-
airy, he employed the said woman Jane, who repre-
sented herself skilful midwife, and as hi wing
license to practice to attend his wife during con-
tinement. Mr.. Bruen states that his wife gre W so
dangerously ill under the care of the woman Jane
that he was anxious to cali in physician The
woman dlssuaded him from it, telling him thai if
he did have a physician his wife would sur Fly die
Mrs. Bruen grew much worse, and the negro wo-
man succeeding in preventing Mr. B. from getting
any medical advice, she died. Mr. Brue q states
that he has since learned that the woman had no
license, and he believes that through her unskil-
full management, his wife lost her lite. H further
states, that he has good believe that she
sacrificed his wife rather than have physician
called in, by whom she would be expo sed Re-
corder Baldwin did think there was a, az law on
the subject which would justify him in issuing a
criminal process. But we think the case calls
loudly for some steps to be taken for The punish
ment OF one, who thus hampers with human Life
