'Whilst in Europe a number of iniftvidualt who
are distinguished by an entipArare as erpritsibrts, thomb in
reality they are weak enough, are, employed in ridiculing the
miracles wrought by Prince frolienlee, there has occurred, in
America a fact which it behaves us to communicate to our
readers. We have however to premise that it is not a news
paper article which we ate about to translate ; but upon the
other hand our information is collected from proceedings. and
reports which have been legally attested by constituted autho.
titles, as well civil as ecclesiastical.
Mr. It. S. Briscoe, a 51agistrate Of the city of Washington,
the seat of the Government of the United States, declares that
upon the 24th of March, 1824, a woman of .10 years old, named
Anne Martingley, casts before him, anti, after her first being
sworn upon the holy Evangelists, deposed to the following
effect :

" For these last 7 years past I have tattered dreadful pains in
my left side, in 'consequence of a cancer. The most experi-
enced and skilful physicians had attended me, but all their
prescriptions were unavailing. I had, consequently, lost all
hope of recovery, when M. DuLuisson, Assistant Minister of
St. Patrick's Church, exhorted me to perform a VJIV in the
most holy name of Jesus, in conformity with the directions
that had issued from Prinee Hohenlue. Having first confe.v.
.ed to M, Nlettliews, the tector of the aforesaid church, I re-
ceived the Holy Sacrament front ',f. Dubuisson on the 19th
of this month, at four o'clock in the morning. Such were
my sufferings and exhaustion at this moment, that I belies,-
ed I was verging to my last breath. Under this impression,
I then. offered up, mentally, this prayer—' Lord Jesus! let
thy holy will be dune.' But scarcely had I received or par-
token of the body of our Divine Saviour, when I felt that
all my infliction's had vanished ; and my strength so rapidly re
-
I turned, that, all at once, I was enabled to rise, without any
assistance, anti to return thanks, throwing myself on ttiy knees,
to the Almighty, in the presence of M. Dubuisaon, my rela-
tions, and my friends. Prom that moment I have experienced
no return of my former malady and I continue to enjoy an
appetite quite equal to that which .I
possessed in ptrfect health."
On the 3d of May following, the said Anne Martingley made
a similar deposition before the Chief Magistrate of the City of
Washington, in which she declared that her cure had been so
sudden and so complete, that it was impoisible to have been
accomplished by human power.
nut, object die incredulous, it is only the diseased that has
hitherto been heard. Should we not have witnesses to there
strange facts ? Well, they are at hand. Among the very lint
appears lt. Carboy, the Mayor of Washington, and brother
of Anne Martingley, who confirms ell the facts previously al-
leged, and upon oath, before the Chief Justice of the United
Statea.
Ilia two Rimers ( Ruth and Catherine Carbery and hit sister-
in-law, all depose, in like manner, to the foregoing facts. Dr.
Jones, who attended Anne Martingley, has testified that her
case was absolutely not within the power of his art.
More than thirty of both sexes, who belong to, the moat civi-
lized classes of society, have likewise bore testimony to the
truth; and that respectable Ecclesiastic, M. Dubuieson, is ready
to attest it even with his blood.
A gentleman, whose character entitles him to corifidetace,
states, that upon the most complete verification cf this miracle,
a number of the inhabitants of the City of Washington were
converted to the Catholic Faith.
