city few days since, which for severa
reasons we think worth recording. Anon!

and stricken by the fatal disease, was tina
{ of Mr.. Hangley, worthy Irishman wht
has long been employed by the Commits
sioner of Streets His wife, a warm heart
ed, motherly woman, devotedly attached
to children, and self-sacnfcing to promot
i their welfare and happiness, was takel
with the Cholera and died, and was buri
ed on Thursday, September Goth. Mex
a lovely little daughter, seven years Of ag'
was taken sick, and she too died, and heI
body laid out and her limbs adjusted il
the embrace of the King of Terrors. The
father applied to Alderman Wingate for {
coffin, but for some cause it could not bt
had Immediately, and its delivery postpon-
ed for an hour or two; during this time,
Mr.. Hangley returned home, when the
supposed dead child stretched forth her
arms with the exclamation, .'Oh, Father! |
have been to Heaven, and it is beautiful
Iplace
After the surprise and excitement of the
girl had subsidized, she gave a relation of
what she had seen, as she expressed it,
in Heaven
She saw her mother in Heaven, and she
was taking care of little children, many of
whom she called by name, and among
them she said were four children of Uncle
Hangley, and three children of Uncle Cas-
sey's. Aunt Lynch is not there now, but
she will be tomorrow; and on Sunday |
shall go back again ''ss 2
But said an elder sister, it cannot be
so dearest, for there are but two of Uncle
Cassey's children deadl' . ..aA,

and dear mother was taking care ofthem.
All were dressed in white, and all were
very happy, and the children playing =
Oh!it was beautiful there; and | shall go
there again next Sunday afternoon at four

Mr.. Hangley Immediately informed Mr..
Wingate that his daughter was not dead,
when he, in company with DR.. Morrison,
visited the house, and the little girl related
substantially the same story. 1t seems
too, that shortly after this relation of the
little of what she had seen and heard in
Heaven, a message came from Mr.. Casey
in Carmel, giving Information of the death
of another child, and inviting them toat-
tend the funeral. a r} M.1 w. H
Ofthe four children of her Uncle Hang
ley, two died in this city, and two were
drowned on their passage from Ireland,
We called on Saturday to see and talk
with this little girl, but she was very fee
BILE, and just then in a browse, and we
would not allow her to be disturbed. She
had no wish to live, but preferred return
ing to her mother. The father and sister
are seriously, but very happily impressed
with the relations Of this sweet child, and |
ioyfully believe the story she tells Their
house'is pattern of neatness, and they'll
all possess hearts cverfowing with atiec
ton, and are sincerely happy on account
Of their heafenly, messenger, sas.yte

'ison, in the honest, truthful simplicity of
Ills heart, when my good wife died, but
IN not now, but only wish to be with her.
Ehe elder sisters, too, live in joyful hope
1f meeting at length, and they care not
low soon, if it be Gods time, their dear
mother in heaven, where she has been
seen by her angel sister, who has been per- 7
nitted to return to the earth and make the
act known to them. Dr. oa - aa.

On Sunday afternoon, Mr.. Daniel War
Ell, a very worthy religious man, who had

cared better and would soon be well, and

Mr.. Warren endeavored to turn her at G

utthe little sufferer was fast sinking away Q
the death rattle was heard, and she soon t
