SIR: cannot but express amazement at the
contents of the letters transmitted you by DR..
Borland, Of the Senate, to which earlier notice
has been precluded by variety of circumstances,
but which self-respect and regard for the dignity
Of the department forbid me to characterize in
such terms as, in my opinion, they justly merit.
That they do not contain single statement in
accordance with the truth viii be made evident
hereafter by direct testimony, if my,reply which,
from the nature Of my engagements must neces-
sarily be short, shall not prove satisfactory, or If
the head Of the department should fail 70 per-
ceiye that have been no less unjustly attacked
in the correspondence than / was personally in

The charges contained in the correspondence
alluded to, are:

been cast of, and found woman OF
the table uttering her dying moans.-
The meaning of the sorceress was now
made too clear to me. The victim wa.

her simple lips Calakena had learned

armed me.
"This is TRUTH" said Giacomo in con
clusion. 'As regards intention. an

child.n
Several persons came forward wher
Giacomo had concluded. and testified
to several points in his favor. While
Giacomo hung in agony over his bleed
ing bride, the sorcereSs had fed, and
some Of the witnesses had seen her
passing with speed from the neiehbor-
hood. Isabella. TOO, had lived long
enough to explain the whole transac-
ton, so far as She knew it, Her dying
declaration went TO snbstantiate all that
had been related BY Salvadi. In con-
sequence of the production of these
proofs in his favor, Giacomo was finally
acquitted of the crime. with the con.
sent of all acquainted with the case.
Calakena was not more than thirty
five years of age and must have AS
sumed the appearance OF age in order
the more effectually To impose on the
public, and prosecute the profession TO
which she had applied herself On her
cabin being examined, d number OF
coloring substances were found, by
means of which She had given herself
the hue and look OF old age The
length of lime during which she had
nursed the sentiment of revenge shows
a violence of passions scarcely credible
without such proofs as those. 1t ap-
pears even but too probable that she
had assumed the character of Surcer-
eS> at first in the hope that she would
better attain her desired object, and
that her plan Of revenge had been one
long matured But for the Iameatable
and ignorant credulity. hnwever. of
her victims. her murderous purposes
might have been frustrated. Half of
the caIamaties of mankind come in the
tain Of superstition.
