that whether the diseussisn by the execu-

DEATH OF A NUN.

The Catholic Mirror chronicles the death
at the Carmelile Convent in the city of Bal
timore, on the 10Th inst. OF sister Veronica,
who had been suffering for some time past
with consumption, in the 4lst year of her
age, and the 18th of her religious profess
sion. Her real name was Juliet Ann Sax
ton, native of St. Mary's county, in this
State.
We DO not remember ever to have seen
the death of \ nun ann unced in the public
prints before; and conclude that this de-
parture of the Mirror from its customary
silence is referable in some measure to the
disposition. recently manifested, to make
legal inquiry into the ultimate fate of i'm
INJURED recluses, which the American party
assert to be one of tho rights Of society
If this were not the case, why is the natural
death of this Carlnelite and the disease Of
which she died, published to the world,

been eiv'iiy dead, and her property prob
