ACQUITTAL Or TUE POISONER,
• ELEANOR NAVIN.
Napanee, April 21. -.,-The Navin
murder trial began at the assizes this
morning. As early as nine o'clock the
court-roora was well tilled with specta-
;tors and auditors. Mrs. Navin, the
accused, was placed in the dock. She
looked calm and unconcerned at first,
but a look of anxiety gathered on her
face as the formality of opening the
court went on. Her appearance was
far different from that she presented at
the time of the inquest. Instead of,
the grimy pallor ef her sunken face
bearing the traces of a recent debauch
that ended in the death of her husband,
her face looked plump and h'ealthy,
and in place of the slatternly garments
which hung on her gaunt figure,. she
wore a neat black, chess, covered by a
plain woollen slia,u1.
After the evidence for the Crown
and Defence was closed, Mr. Derocbe,
of Deroche & Madden, who both had
kindly volunteered to defend the pris-
oner'in an able and oloquent speech of
about &Ay -five minutes, addressed the
jury on behalf of the unfortunate wo-
man. He was followed by Mt. Brit-
ton, who clearly set forth the facts On
behalf of the Crown.
His Lordship reviewed the a/Memo
with great irupartiaflty. Els Lordship,
Mr. Britton, and Mr. Deroobe, in the
course of their remarks, said. they had
never heard of so much inhuthanity as
was shown by the neighbors of Navin'
in all the circumstances connected with
the case.
At 6.10 the case was given to the
jury, who retired, but came in in about
15 minutes with the verdiet of 14 not.
guilty."
His Lordship intimated to the jury
that he approved of the verdict they
had arrived at. In discharging 'the
prisoner be strongly cautioned her, and
urged ber to forsake the drinking hab-
it: that had brought her, into such
peril, and had indirectly Made her a
widow.
Mrs. Navin was at once set at lib-
erty, and she struck out in the direction
of her old home, and .when kit, seen
was ascending Roblin.'s hill, south of
the town, on the York road.
