Sf A SPANISH WIRE-PULLER. During a debate in the Spanish Chamber of De puties, a few days ago, the Liberal_ speaker con tended that the home administration and foreign policy of the cabinet were directly influenced by the arts and intrigues of a notorious female impostor, a cheating, swindling nun—Sister Patrocinio. M. Calderon-Collantes had, in the course of the debate, positively denied that this evil genius of Queen Isabella and of Spain had ever, at any previous period of her life, been the object of a criminal in quiry and condemnation. I will furnish the Chamber,"exclaimed M. Olozaga, " with the proofs." And he straightway proceeded to read both the evi dence respecting and the sentence against Sister Patrocinio, who, in the regency of Marie Christina, was in the habit of beholding celestial visions, and of working miracles in the interest of the Carlist, party, inst as she now pretends to receive direct communioations from heaven in the interests of the Papal Government, and of its most devoted Spanish partisans. In company with the lady abbess of her convent and' an entire sisterhood of impostors, the nun, of late years so powerful, lad then been arrested. According to the testimony of the exa un't2ing judge, Sister Patrocinio had declared that the foL l owing miracle was worked in her person : The devil had whisked her out of her cell in the middle of the night, and sat her down on the high way of Aranjue.z. He then and there expounded to her that Queen Maria Christina was a lady o f very equivocal c ;taracter, and that her da ug ht er Isabella neither we legally, nor ever would be a.'vir tually, Queen of Sp. ain. His Satanie M a j es ty afterwards carried her ff to the summit of Guadar rama, where he made ma.ny other startling disclo sures, all favourable to the Cerlist interests, and ex tremely damaging to the prospects of Queen Chris five and her daughter, taking care, when he brought her back to the convent, to deposit her on the roof, whence the other nuns :had considerable difficulty in fetching her down with safety—a mode of return providentially designed to establish beyond all doubt the gen uineness of the miracle. Sister Patrocinio, it appears. came to grief in con sequence of her visions ano miracles on behalf of the Carlist cause. Now theta.e visions and mi r acles are all on the other side—that Queen Isabella be lieves, and her mini:gen profe.as at least to believe, in them—it has become the fa.i , hion in the Court. circles of Madrid to forget or de,ily that she was ever in the hands of police. But the menial solemnly made by one of the leading members o.f the Spanish Cabinet will probably not be repeater;before the representatives of the Spanish people after the proofs furnished to them at their sitting of the 13i.`11. One of the secretaries read the sentence. Its terms were to the effect that Don Juan Garcia Becerra, hono rary counsellor of the Royal Court of Madrid, found it legally proved that Sister Maria del Patrocinio had been guilty of trickery and imposture by means of the marks on her feet, hands, and breast, of which she had ascribed the origin to a direct mira cle of the Most High. But in consideration of her having turned Queen's evidence, and having con tributed to discover the guilt of her accomplices, she was only condemned to be transferred to some other convent, distant not less than 40 leagues from Madrid, there to be especially recommended to the vigilance of the lady abbess and of the father con fessor, in order that she might have no opportunity of repeating these swindling tricks.—Morning Post COUNTRY 211A1?KLiA5. ..
