BABY ExcITEMENr.-On Thursday last por-
tion of our town was set agog by the declara-
tion that miracle had been performed on that
morning. Mr.. Godfrey, of Godfrey l. Darragh's
daguerrean gallery, in taking the likeness of a
gentleman, discovered, upon finishing the pic
ture, the likeness of very young baby costly
sitting on his lap with his arms lovingly wound
about it. As there was no baby about, as the
glass was just taken from new box, and as it
had been cleaned with the usuaa care, this ap-
pearance CT the baby under the circumstances
was deemed miracle. To our suggestion that
the glass had before been used, Mr.. G. respou-
ded that it was new glass-had never been
used before, &c. We did not believe in mira
cles, however, and upon close inspection, dis
covered very dimly developed, the face of ano-
ther man, the father of the baby perhaps, who
doubtless sat with the little cherub in his arms
when its likeness was taken, it may be, away
back in New York, or over the waters in London
or Paris. We desire our friend Godfrey to dis
tinctly understand that the day of miracles has
passed.
