The GrISwOld Murder.


The readers Of the TRANscmrr will
remember the brutal murder Of Mrs.
Griswold, at Willston, more than n
year ago, and the arrest Of John Ward,
alias Jerome Lavigne, and Charles II.
Potter for the commission Of the
crime. The County Court acquitted
Potter, but found Laygne guilty
The lattcr's case was carried to the
Supreme Court upon points OF alleged
errors in matters of law, committed by
the lower Codrt, and was disposed Of
at the recent session in Burlington,
the Court holding that no error i'll law
was committed in the trial and YER
dict, and that the verdict of guilty
must stand recorded against the ac-
cused. The sentence was pronounced
by Judge Barrett, the concluding
words of which we give
Tho sentence of the law is now to
be pronounced, and it is that you be
hanged By The 0cct tH dead. at such
time as shall be fixed by this Court in
warrant to be issued thereby Mt the
next term thereof commanding this
sentence to be carried into execution {;
and that YOU be imprisoned III solitary
confinement in the State Prison in
Windsor, in The County of Windsor,
till said punishment shall be inflicted.
The Free Press adds:
Layigno stood and looked the Judge
in the face during the delivery of the
sentence, without the culver of a mus
Gle, or the slightest blenching of his
cold grey eye, and sat down at its
close, apparently the most unconcern-
ed individual in the Courtroom
1t would seem that the atrocty of
Wards crime must remove all room
for even an application for executive
clemency. If there was ever a case
where the law should take its course,
that of the h0ed assassin, brought from
New York City for his deed of murder
must be it, 1t is certainly to be hoped
that he will be SO carefully guarded
that the gallows will not be cheated Of
its own, and that before his end he
will make a contession-w which cannot
indeed make his own guilt " more
certain, but may clear up the fearful
mystery which still surrounds the
crime, and show who was the insti-
gator MS well as the perpetrator Of the
Griswold murder.

Vital Statistics.

According to the eighth animal
Registration Report for the STATE Is
Vermont, containing returns from IN
but twonty-four towns, it appears tbot
the number of births in this stot
during the year 1866 was 4.753 less
by 9l6 than those of the year preood
ing, accounted for principally by an
absence of more than tenth of tbo
adult men of the State. The number
OF marriages was l,704, less by 2O3
than those of the preceding year The
number of deaths was, 5,293. less b.
III than those of 1865. In 400 III
stances of marriage the bride, was VAS
under twenty years Of age, in ne
brides groom was under twenty. iva
hundred and ninety-four widiwers
were married, and only huHdi6d aud
eighty-hye widows. The namhor a
deaths was 800 more than the ayeraqa
for the eight preceding years. In
that respect the influence Of M
war is apparent, not only in the great
er prevalence Of some fornsof disease
but also in the deaths OF many re-
turned soldiers. Diphtheria was The
most fatal disease, and occasioned
042 deaths ; consumption stood next
having had 1873 victims. Only eight
deaths were suicides, less than half
the annual average.
