A runaway wife.

--John Johnson, of Washington city, appeared at the police station yesterday, and reported that his wife, Ann Johnson, alias Ann Wheeler, and two daughters, named respectively Delphine Lord and Emma Johnson, left Washington on the 25th of November, in company with one William Lord, taking with them fourteen hundred dollars in United States notes, a feather-bed, bedding, and a large quantity of clothing and furniture, all of which Johnson claims as his property. Mrs. Johnson is described as a woman of thirty-eight years, about five feet four inches in height, with very dark complexion, grey eyes and Roman nose. Lord was formerly a member of the United States Sharp-shooters. Any person having any knowledge of the runaway will confer a favor upon Johnson by leaving information with Major Croft.
