News comes from Sierra Leone that after
delay OF Ave years punishment has been awarded
for most atroClous crime. In 1877 two agents of
the Church Missionary Society, at ontsha on the
Niger, William +. John and John Williams by
name. and their wives. tied two native girls together
back to back, whipped them with blrbalOuS cruelty,
rubbed pepper into their Wounds aud left them lying
on the ground under brOng sun one OF them
died, and the other mlracuously survived. Williams
and his Wife sentenced To twenty years penal
serytude, John to eighteen and u half years. penal
serytude, and Mrs. John TO two years imprson-
nGnt with hard labor. Tho trial has created u great
sensation throughout the colony aud tho sentences
are warmly approved The, explanation given for
the long delay Is that although the death or the grl
was the occasion of suspicion and inquiry among the
British subjects mostly natives OF Sierra Leone, nj
Onltsha, IN 1877 every attempt to find out tho truth
Of the met with tho greatest difficulties, many
people who Were In position to give evidence being
themselves less implicated In the affair But
for tho determination 0f MIR. lIaastroOp the matter
would not have the light ut all. II Is satlsfaC-
tiOn Ia know That although he eN-missOnaTies have
adopted European names they are natives OF Africa.
