As soon as she recovered suficlently
TO describe the wretch, her friends and
neighbors began a pursuit. Rewards
am uniting to $500 we're offered by rela'
tives and friends for the apprehension

ALBANY, July ia singular ctss oI
belief in spiritual power to cure physi.
cal ailments has come to notice in West
Galway, Saratoga County. The people
OF the place are principally interested
in farming and are exceedingly ignor-
ant. Four years ago young woman
named Shattuck, lS years old, became
paralyzed from the effects Of Q violent
nervous attack, caused by the sudden
and accidental death Of a brother.
She went into convulsions and was in
comatose condition for several days.
When her mind recovered its normal
condition, she could neither speak nor
use her limbs. During four years this
condition was unchanged, and her DO.
dy gradually wasted until the skin was
drawn tightly over the bones, and the
flesh assumed milky color. Miss
Shattuck was devout member of the
Methodist Church. She has ever since
her prostration persisted in believing
that she would he restored to health,
and expressed her faith in the efficacy
Of prayer to accomplish that purpose.
Three weeks ago, after having been
totally helpless during four years, and
regarded as incurable, she walked down
stairs one day much TO the astonish.
ment Of her parents. Since then her
limbs have gradually become strong
and plant. Last week at her request,
the clergymen and members Of the
three churches in West Galway
met at Mr.. Shattuck's house
and held meeting for the
purpose Of praying for spiritual
power to make further cure in the
young woman's case and enable her to
have restored the power of speech.
Miss Shattuck soon thereafter began to
sing and talk. The case 10 vouched for
as above by the people Of the village.

A special despatch from Washington
says:
An influential and well-informed Re-
publican member Of the Ohio Legisla-
ture, who has arrived in Washington
since the adjournment Of Congress, says
that the coming campaign in that State
will be fought almost entirely upon the
financial issue, and that, in SO far as
the Governorship is concerned, its re-
suit is already practically determined
in favor Of the Republicans.
This state of affairs hs attributes
chiefly to revolution in public opin-
ion, especially in the northern portions
OF Ohio, with regard 10 financial ques-
tions, and to the fact that n0twithstand-
ing the moderation Of General Ewing's
recent utteIances, he is held to be the
very embodiment Of all that is untlied
and irrational in matters Of public
economy. This gentleman says that
one year ago public opinion in North
ern Ohio, even among those who called
themselves the advocates of honest
money, leaned toward a different policy
from that which was at that time being
carried out by Secretary Sherman pre-
paratory to the resumption Of specie
payments; ana the hard times then
prevalent were attributed to the great
haste which was being made in the
right direction.
Now that resumption is an accom-
plished fact and the signs Of returning
prosperity everywhere apparent, this
class of men, both Republicans and
Democrats, credit the improved condi.
tion Of affairs To the event which was
distinctively the fruit Of the Republi.
can financial policy. General Ewing
is stated to be respected everywhere
for his personal worth, but he owes his
eminence more to his financial theories
than to any other quality, and these
theories have already been exploded.
Even Democrats who on all other quss-
tions hold to their old convictions feel
that IL is necessary in the coming fight
to give expression by Their votes to
their confidence in the present policy
Of the Treasury Department.
With regard to the legislature, the
gentleman referred to believes that the
prospects are very favorable for the
return of Republican majority, al
though owing to a local popularity of
the apportionment, the Democrats have
an advantage this year. The appor-
tionment is such that certain Republi-
can counties are entitled to additional
representation every other election,
while on the alternate election this
fractional representation goes to Ger
tain other counties which are Demo-
cratic.
This will make it necessary for the
to carry Hamilton county,
of which they feel sure, and certain
other counties which are usually coun.
ted as doubtful. Plans looking to this
end are therefore being matured.
