&Rorke stood and looked after her w ig h
sensations of fear and attonishmeut. The
age was superstitious and encouraged a
belief in th • influence of powers distinct
from human agency. Every part of Ire
land was filled at this time w.th charactels
both male and female, precisely similar to
old Null M'Cullum. The del kness in
which this woman walked, according to t F, n
- opinions of a people but sii2litly advanced
in knowledge and citiliz Ilion, has been
but feeb'y advanced to the reader. To
ineet her was considered an omen of the
Most.unhappy kind; a circumstance which
• occasioned by the imprecation of Limb
_Laudher. She was reported to have
maintained an intercourse with the Niles,
to be capable of communicating the blight
of an evil eye, and to have car ried on a
team which is said to have been rather
prevalent in Ireland at the time we speak
of.rTnernely, that of kidnapping. 'file
speculations in reference to her object in
- perpetrating this crime were strongly cal
notated-to- exhibit the degraded state of'
101orpsople at that period. Some said that
she disposed of the children to a certain
class of persons in the metropolis. who
subsequently sent them to the colonies,
when grown, at an enormous profit.' Oth
ers maintained that she never carrier]
tbemAn Dublin at, all, but insisted that,

. by some secret charm, the influence of
baptismal protection, and that she conse
quently acted u an agent for the 'gentry'
to-whom she transferred them. Even to
tbia day itia the opinion in Ireland, that
the .good people' themselves cannot take
away,. a Child, except through the instru
-mentality of some mortal residing with
thein, who has been baptized; and it is al
io-believed- thiit no baptism can secure
children froth them, except that in which
the- riest has been desired to baptize them

in a bystander to be a similar kin,l of knot.

what the nature of her business with him
might be. To this she made no rep'y.

'The fate of the Bankrupt Act is sealed.

The instructions to the Vermont Senators

course of legislation is to -be tolerated in
regard to this ill-fated law. It is not to be
regularly annulled, but is to be_ Lynched.
It is to be tried by Lynch law and expun •
ged. The plan is to present a petition for
its repeal—to move a reference of that
petition in the House to the tlonralittee on
the Judiciary, with instructions forth
vitith to bring in. a bill repealing • the act,
and- then this bill is to he passed at once
through all the Stages of legislation, . under
the decision-made by the Speaker at the

will veto this repealing 'law. Many ex

Some of the ultra IYhigs say that if he will,
they wilitake this veto as a set-off against
