Mr. Christopher Turner Johnson, late sur. 
geon and lecturer on anatomy in Exeter, 
aculist to the west of England Kye Infirmary, 
and member of the Royal College of surgeons 
of London, and of the Royal Medical Society 
of Edinburgh. His disorder was a typhus 
fever, brought on, as is supposed, by a severe 
sold, combined with the ill effects of an acci- 
dental puncture by scissars, employed in dis- 
section. Mc. J. received a thorough profes- 
sional education in Edinburgh and London: 
and his zealous application and. eminent ta- 
ents enabled him to come into the world at 
the early age of twenty-four, with testimo- 
nials from Mr. Ashley Cooper, and Mr. 
Saunders, indicating the highest possible esti- 
mation of his professional qualifications, It 
is less than two years.since he came to reside 
at Exeter; but in that short period, he gra- 
dually acquired a degree of reputatien for 
accurate and extensive anatomical knowledge 
and surgical skill ; for-clearness, penetration, 
comprehensiveness, and coolness of judgment, 
and for temperate yet decisive firmness, which 
is rare at a more advanced period of life. He 
Spared no expence or exertion in gaining, or 
in communicating kSowledge. If it had 
pleased Providence.to spare his life, there is 
no reasonable ground for doubt, that he would 
have ranked among the very first of hig pro- 
fession in this islaud. He had a high sense 
of the utility of his profession; his unosten- 
» tatious goodness: prompted him to employ his 
surgical talents among the poor, to an extent 
which is known but to few; but those know 
that there-are.many in that class of society 
who weep for» kim as a kind benefactor.— 
His protessional conduct. was: peculiarly cal- 
éulated to conciliate the good will of his.pros 
fessiona! brethren. ‘There was.no assumption 
of superiority to disgust, no miean arts to in- 
jure: he carefully studied the proprieties of 
his protession, andias carefully observed-them.

follow the habitual promptings of his own: 
upright; benevolent, heart. He had no ab- 
liguity of mind, no sinister views, no ends 
which required secrecy ; all was fair and open. 
Those who have the niournful satisfaction of 
having shared his intimacy, never saw-in hit! 
any thing that appeared unsuitable to what! 
they expected fronr his character; and in 
proportion as this was known, the-more it 
‘interested and delighted. His cultivated un. 
derstanding, excellent sense, well regulated 
feelings, and sterling worth, made that inti- 
macy regatded as a treasure; and his delicacy’ 
of mind, his disinterestedness and generosity, 
his candour, Icindness, simplicity, and sin 
cerity, obtained the affectionate confidence of 
his patients, and of all his friends,
