M. TEEFY, Postmaster Richmond Hill, April 27, 1868. SUBSChuflfl FOR The YOIk Herald, $1,00 a year We confess we were agreeably surprisâ€" ed to hear, so seen, of the utter defth of King Theodorus and his army. it is a matter for congratulation that General Napier has so conducted his expedition as to bring the war to a speedy and glorious termination. The action 0." Her M ajestv’s governmentfin sending General Napier and :1 well-appointed army on so perilous a journey to rescue the persons imprisoned by 'l‘heodorus, is a further proof that to be a British subject "Is a glorious eharter, deny it who can!” Now that the authorities have set the machinery of the law in motion in re- gard to the case of the late Mrs Busing- twaite, and as the coroner’s jury have rendered a verdict in accordance with the evidence brought before themâ€"alter a patient and protracted investigationâ€"- we feel justified in Offering few remarks upon the subject. We fear that the crime of abortion has grown to be a social evil amongst us, the extent and enormity of which is difficult to ascertain with certainty, on account of thepcnultst inflicted by the law and the disgrace at- attached to those who are concerned; sufficient is known, however, to justily us in our assertions. Wehave heard of several who have run the risk of their lives under the manipulation of the ubor tionist; it is Well for them they have so far escaped public notoriety, and we hope that recent events in this locality will put a stop, for the future, to such wicked transgression of all lawâ€"human and divine. MR. VEREY'S PANORAMA.â€"This exhibi- tion was shown in the Temperance Hal], in this village,on Wednesday evening last. We understand it is very instinctive and gave greg: satisfaction to all who had the plea- sure of being present. RICHMOND HILL, MAY 1, 1868 Before taking leave of' this ex- ceedingly painful subject, we con- sider it just and proper to say that the public are indebted to Mr. Coroner Reid, for taking this matter in hand, and for the able and fearless manner in which he conducted the proceedings of his court during three sittings of the inquest.â€" Dr. Held is well fitted for the position he holds, and should the government carry out the idea of appointing one coroner only, for each county, as we saw intimated some time sinceâ€"we wouid by all means say that it should be 21 great public benefit to select Dr. J. N. Reid. GLORIOUS NEWS FROM ABYS BINIA.

Coroner Reid resumed the inquiry (into the cause of the late Mrs. Martha Basingtwaite’s death.) on Friday evening, the 24th ult., at 7 p.111. SECOND DAY. John Palmer, jun’r, sworn and said: I keep an hotel on Richmond I'Iill_ I know nothing about the death of deceas- sed, Martha Basingtwaite. I received a letter from Dr. Williams touching this matter. I received the letter five weeks ago ; (The letter was read to the jury, and embraces sundry glaring,r offers of money, if Mr. Palmer could procure evidence to prosecute some one for defamation of character.) I have seen Dr. Williams this (Friday, the 24th) him. He has been at my hotel before and since, during Mrs. Basingtwaite’s sickness. Maria Hunter came to my house and engaged a horse and buggy to go for Dr. \Villiams. Peter Basingtwaite had the horse twice for the same purâ€" pose. Mrs. Jane Benson, sworn and said: I have known the deceased Martha 13:,isingtwaite since last May. I visited deceased during her illness. I have been in the house belore she took ill. I waited on deceased when Maria went for Dr. Williams ; she asked me, when her sisterâ€" Maria Hunterâ€"had gOnc for him, ii‘I knew what was the matter with her ; I told her I thought she had had a thisâ€"carriage, she said No; she said she had been to town to Dr. Williains,and Maria wished to have him again. This conversation took place on Thursday after the miscarriage. She told me she was very ill in the city on the Friâ€" day ; she said she thought she would not be able to get home. I heard ol’the mis- carriage from some of the neighbours. It was common conversation at the time; all expressed surprise at the apparent wish to hide the fact. I thought Miss Hunter was shy, and I did not go to visit Mrs. Basingtwaite any more. I was there when Dr. W. came; he said she was doing well; it was about 11 l o'clock pm. He stopped all night Her husband and her sisterâ€"Maria Hunter â€"â€"laid her out. I did not go in, because I thought they did not want me. There was medicine; I understood it came from town ; it was of a whitish color. (At this stage of the proceeding, the Coroner ordered Maria Hunter to be arrested and brought in.) Dr James Langstafi, sworn and said: At 3 p 111., on Nov. 17th, 1867, I was called to attend Mrs Peter Basingtwaitc, ‘ ‘A 7 .

It was not my medicine that caused the ulcers on her tongue and mouth. It was three o‘clock p.111., on , sabbath when her and her sister pressed x on me not to put it back. It was tinc- l ture of'opinm that was given by injection. , I think tlfigave it in too large doses. 105T MoItTEM. 1 John Hostetter, Physician and mom-l ber of the Royal College of Surgeons of, England, of the Towuship of Markham l and County of York, Province of 0nt., , make oath and say tzâ€"That on the I4th day of April 1868, by instructions from John N. Reid, Gentleman, one of Her Majesty‘s geroners, did, with Dr. Mc- Mas‘ter, proceed to the dead house on lichde there make a post mortcm examination of the body of the late Mrs. Martha Basingtwaite. I re- cognised the body as that of the late Mrs. M. Basingtwaite, and found it con- siderably emaciated, but not much de- composed. On making an incision through the abdominal wall from the epigastric region to the mons veneris, I found the peritoneal surfaces of the ab- domen, great omentum, large and small intestines attached to each other by in- flammatory adhesions, so firmly, that it was impossible to detach them without using the scalpel. The peritoneal sur- iacc of the uterus was rough, and in many places connected to the bladder and rectum by adhesions, caused by in- flammation. There was no serious efl'u- sion in the cavity of the abdomen. On examining the Womb, we found it about live and a half inches in length, by four inches in breadth, and the walls half an inch thick. The os-uteri was gangren- ous from the lips to the cervix, and the mucous membrane throughout the body of the organ: in a. disorganized and sloughing condition. There was on the left side ofthe uterus, just below the entrance of the fallopin tube, part of the placenta or utter-birth adhering, and on the opposite side, one inch below the entrance of the right fallopian tube, we founda ragged circular opening, about one third of an inch 11] diameter. extend- ing through the mucous membrane and half-way through the muscular wall The opening extended upwa’ds and out- wards. The vagina presented a healthy appearance From the post mortmn examination, I swear positively that M is. Martha Basingtwaite was pregnant :1 shbrt tilnexbef'ore her death, and I beâ€" lieve the laceration dlscovered in the womb was sufficient to produce an abor~< tion. and the" 'ataLi animation of the an "peritfiflmrASâ€"Alrefix Coroner Reid resumed the inquiry (into the cause of the late Mrs. Martha Busingtwaite’s death) on Friday eVening, the 24:11 ult., at 7 13.111.

I was culled in on the 17th of November; on the Sillne day I observed fever symptoms. I could not be confident that any injury had heen done to the womb. I met Dr. \Villiums in consultation on the 25th 01' November. I suspected Dr. \Villiams was connected with the abortion soon :lftel consultation with him hytheir sendin‘Lr for him. Miss Hunter was present when I went there: as soon as I WOLt she said do not put it back. The cause of death was Typhoid Fever, the abortion acting as the ex- citingr cause. Mrs. Basingtwuite and Miss Hunter were imperative on me not to stop the labor. The child was living when I was called in. I am in- â€"â€"1:1id her out. I did not go in, because I thought they did not want me. There was medicine; I understood it came from town ; it was of' a whitish color. (At this stage of the proceeding, the Coroner ordered Maria Hunter to be arrested and brought in.) Dr James Langstafi, sworn and said: At. 3 p n1., on Nov. 17th, 1867, I was called to attend M 1‘s Peter Busingtwuitc, iabori ldeI‘ ‘iums of abortiofi: Wfi;.m‘.~.ia‘ Toronto. Hof'fisfé’f, A 'a Hunter, and herself, insisted in the most posim'e manner that it should not be stopped D1'.Lunj_);~tuiÂ¥, cross-examined.â€"â€"The child was about 4 01‘ 4% months 0111. An abnrtion is a delivery before six months. It is unusual for nborlions to set in at that period. Some symptoms VI hinking it, however. my duty to» save the life of the young innocent, I sent some pills having a tendency to‘eheek it At 9 p m , I visited he ‘ again, and found that the abortion had made considerable progress; supposed the pills had not been given, and concluded that the mis-earri- age could not now be prevented. The struggles of the child were very distinct at the lower part of the abdomen It. was born at3 a m of the 18th, and had been about four or four and a half months in uterus The patient had no very remarkable symptoms duringr the first two days, but on the third day in» flammation set in, attackingr the bowels and uterus and lasting several days when i was checked, and she had been imâ€" proving for severaldays up to the 25th of November, when one Dr. \'\ illiams (whom she had been to see just before the abortion) was called in to consult with me ; I at this time not knowing his character7 but learned afterwards that it was the notorious Abortion Williams, of Toronto. The patient became worse in a few hours, and I concluded that he and Miss Hunter had held a consulta- tion, after the consultation with me, and agreed to give the medicine only per anum. It seems that abortion Williams saw the patient repeatedly and prescrib- ed for her without my knowledge, treat- ing the injuries which he had caused in the womb ; which injuries, as well as the disease in that organ which followed,and the symptoms thereof, were as carefully as possible concealed from me. Mrs. Basingswaite was ill about five weeks, too loner a period for a continuance of either acute inflammation of the bowels, or puerperal fever. It is my opinion she came to her death from Typhoid Fever, 'llO excitingr cause of which was the abortion produced by Dr Williams, and the fatal termination was no doubt hastened by the inflammation of the bowels and diarrl’i‘oea accompanying the earlier part of her illness, and the dis- ease of the womb which still existed at the time of her death. Zul'lfwl Some symptoms stated that I was credibly informed there was a premature birth, which sheposi- tively denied; that was 8 or 9 days after the confinement; some 4 0r 5 days after Mrs Hunter came to me, Ftating her regret at having misinformed me; Rov’d John Bredin, sworn and said.â€" I am :1 0103's) man nFtiie “Tesieyzm Metho- dist Church; T visited Mrs Basingtwaite nrinr to hm- dmth, perhaps 5 or 6 times; T asked Mrs Hunter, the second time I visited hm- daughffl, whether she had been confined or not ; she said nothing of the kind wasthe matter with her; I Robert H.

Dr. .i.‘ tctteii crossâ€"examined.â€" The injury in the wall of the womb presented the appearance as if it had been made by some blunt instru- ment ; the opening was round and rag- ged ; criminal abortions might be brought On by a uterine sound; I have not the least doubt but the laceration caused the inflammation and fatal results; I have been in practice 7 years, and con- sider a nus-carriage unusual at 4% months; I have not the least doubt that inflammation of the womb and per- itoneum produced death caused by the injury of the womb; some of the symptoms might before death assimi- late Typhoid Fever; I examined the deceased on 3rd June last7 and found no symptomsof eonsumrtion; I did not discover any disease in her lungs. Bzxsingtwuite was dying; Miss Maria Hunter and Mr Basingtwaite laid her out, no person assisted them. The post mortem evidence of‘ Dr. Hostcttcr was fully corroboramd by Dr. McMustcr, of York Mills7 who was pres- ent at the post mortem examination, and who is considered one of' the ablcst men in the country in such matters.

I am sure and posi- tive I did not take my sisterâ€"in-Iuw to to William‘s about three months ago. He came five times.
