a of great Importance to newspaper
proprietors was decided by Vice-Chaneellor
Little, at Liverpool, recently. Mr. John
Vaughan, editor of the Liverpool Leader, had
been summoned before the, registrar to answer
questions as to the sources of his information
for articles which appeared in the Leader with
reference to the Civil Service Association. Mr.
Vaughan refused to disclose his informants,
taking the responsibility of the articles upon
himself, and after many udjournments and long
arguments on both sides, the Vice Chancellor
decided that he was not bound to answer the
questions.

I A correspondent Of the London Tablet
says:
The Venerable John Eudes, the cause of
whose Qualification is now pending at
Rome, is but little known as yet in this
country, except as the Founder of the Or
der of Our Lady of Charity and of the
Good Shepherd, whose converts aud re-
fuges have existed amongst us for the last
thirty years. think, therefore, short
account of two recent miracles may not be
undressing to your readers.
Lucy Clairai has been twenty-eight years
in the Refuge at Rennes. In 1862 she was
attacked with paralysis, and from that
time could only move with crutches. In
1870 her tongue and throat became so much
affected that she could no longer take any
food, and for more than three years she
was kept alive by forcing tube down her
throat and thus feeding her with incredi-
BILE pain. In November 1870, she became
deaf, and lost the use of speech, and last
December blindn ass was added to this
complication of suffering.. On the Both of
January, 1874, whilst the cause of the
Venerable John Eudes was proceeding at
Rome, a Novena was begun to the holy
Founder for this poor invalid she became
so much worse that she was administered
and her death momentarily expected, when
on the morning of the stu of FEBRUARY she
was suddenly cured, rose, dressed herself,
eat large piece of bread, and it is need
less to add joined most fervently in the
thanksgivings offered by the Religious and
Penitents of the large community OF our
Lady of Charity of Rennes.
This astonishing cure was followed by
another in the same Convent. Mary Angus
tin Chase, Sister Touriere Tor out sister),
about two years ago, was judged, from her
excessive suffering, to have cancer in the
stomach, and was soon unable to take any
food except little milk, and that with the
greatest difficulty. Loss of sleep and acute
pain had SO reduced her that death was
considered as inevitable and at no great
distance. On the End of March, 1874, the
Community commenced a Novena to their
Venerable Founder, John Eudes, but the
poor sister, though she Joined it by ODE
dience, felt it was useless, and said she
did not think Pere Endes arould cure her.
She continued to grow SO much worse that
towards the end she asked her Superioress's
leave not to make it. But the good Mother
desired her to continue it, assuring her she
would receive some grace, if not her cure.
On the 10Th of March with great difficulty
Sister Mary Augustin dragged herself to
the chapel, for sermon and Benediction
which were to commence Novena for the
Feast of st. Joseph. Exhausted with ia
tigued she sat down for a moment outside
the choir and before some relics of Father
Eudes, intending there to say the last
prayer of her Novena, when she found her
self instantaneously cured. She knelt dur
ing the Benediction, went up stairs, took
her supper, and the next day assisted in
the wash house without feeling the small
est Inconvenience.
Various other miracles also attest the
power of the Venerable John Eudes with
God. Amongst others the cure of Peni
tent in the Convent of Our Lady of Charity
of the Good Shepherd at Arras.

Half an hour after the event, his broth in
law came, and had the low impudence to say
that if were not going away and asking the
attack my reputation. Of course, I despised
his threats and gave him the answer to do Just
what he pleased, that I was not afraid of his
accusation. Yours truly,
