she had swallowed the consecrated bread,
she clasped her hands and exclaimed in
transports of JOY, "My Saviour, what

SO overcome, that he threw himself into

the family in prayer and thanksgiving.
Such is brief state Of this affair. On
Thursday and Friday upwards of one
thousand persons called at the mayors
TO inquire into the CIRCUMSTANCE. A.
mong these were members of congress,
and other intelligent gentlemen. The
ladies OF the house remarked, that they
were not bigots or fanatics, anc they
were firm in the faith that the cure was
miraculous. They held an argument to

butable TO the influence of the magma.

Mr.. Carter,,he editor OF the New York
Statesman, and who communicated the
facts respecting the late miracle previous
to his leaving Washington city collected
The following additional particulars on
the subject.
"APprehensive that the alleged mira
Gle might excite some curiosity, and lead
to much speculation, the senior editor of
the Statesman, previous to his leaving
Washington. ehdeavorcd to obtain cor.
rect statement OF facts in relation to this
miraculous event With THAI view. on
Friday morning last, he called on DR..
Jones, respectable physician Of thecily
OF Washington, who attended Mrs. Hat.
llngley (the lady on whom the MIRAGE is
sale to have been %rbught,) during The
whole of her illness. He stated her dis.
ease to have been an internal schi.ous
affection in the breast, which produced
paralysis of the left side, and deprivedher
OF the use OF her arm. He had never
known a person suffer more severely
than she had for several years. Some
months since, he drew up statement OF
her case, at the request of MIR. Coleman,
a catholic priest, which he presumed
was made the basis of the application to
The Prince Hohenlohe, although he was
not aware at the time that such use was
to be made oft. In his statemen, il was
not improbable he had expressed an
opinion, that the disease of his patient was
lncurable. On this point, however, he
vas not positive, as he did not keep a
copy OF the statement.
The corresponding editor OF the States
man then called at Mr.. Carberry's, the
mayor OF Washington, and conversed for
half an hour with the family, and with
Mrs. Mat,iDgley, whom he found lying
upon the bed but who had been about
the house that morning, The day pre-.
vlous, she met her physician at the door
and announced her recovery. She ap-
pcared to be in good health and spirits
her voice firm and clear and the use of
her arm perfectly restored. She related
IN detail all the circumstances of her
disease and cure, which substantially
agreed with tho account given by the
Father CoDGessur, and Of the correctness
OF which Mrs. CaTberry, and two other
ladies residing in the family concurred
They were at the bedside at the time
the sudden restoration to health took
place.
Mrs. Mattinglcy stated that On We'd
nesday morning she supposed she was
dying, and so thought her atcndants.-
She threw up large Quantities of blood
and her speech was SO iDdlslinct, that
the lady at her side could not understand
what she said with her car close to the
mouth Of the patient. The rev. MIR.

insufficient to preserve to them the
right of suffrage, if The plans of our re-.

to succeed. Slavery and aristocracy 90
