" My dear Brother,-I have now, thanks to Almighty God, the great pleasure and satisfaction to inform you, that my daughter, i, q f-e:ly ccovered, and at present quite well in her health, speech, and serase; the benevolent providence of Alnighty God liss, in her melancloly case, given a great example of his all-pow- erful mercy. to the sincere wishes of her afflictedl parents and friends, through the intercession and prayers of his Highness Prince Hohen- lobe; her perfect recovery is nowr the greatest surprise to all those that witnessed the different melancholy severe stages of her illness, which continued for eighteen months; and (luring aU that time she w,as quite speechless, and in the commencemnent of her illness she was tock-,jawed for nearly a menth, and in the latter months was daily seated in a chair like a statue, fed regularly by a servant-maid. like ayoung child, in consequence of her debility. -Seeing not the least appearance of amenddment, or her benming better, and observing in the Irish papers you sent me, the cureof some people in your country i; similar cases, through the pinus prayers and intercessioni of PriLce Hohatdn\t, I comsuiltet whl the President of the English College as to my writing to his Highness, stating the source and present state of her melancholy illnies, of which Pe approved, fiom knowing her situation. Herein I send you a copy of my said letter, date(d the 17th oF last November, and also of his Highniess's answ7er, dated the 4th ofAprU. My letter was for. warded to him at Vienna, enclosed tothe Portuguese lliinister hence to that Court, and the answer camne here through the same channel, about the middle of May; it was printed, but was signed personally by the Prince. " On the 28th of May, the day appointed by the Prince for offer- ing his prayers a solemn mass was celebiated at the English College by the President, at which Mf rs. Horton's family and ours assist5c and united in prayer for the intended purpose. Alrs. Iorten did not attend. being then incapable of paying any regard to the cere. moany; and it was deemed hy the President better that she should not be d?sturbed, oi her agitation increased. However, from that "ay forward she wa daily becoming better, and, in the course of a few days, was so well recovered in her speech and intellect, that neither her famnil-r0 friends could trace or observe the least mark of her long and melancholy complaint. It is observed, that she is at p:esert more cheerful and conversable than ever, as also more re. gular in every attention to her domestic affairs, family, and children. She has litele or no idea of the slate of her illness, nor is it thouglit proper to inform her of what was its dangerous natare. Confident that you and your family will be much pleased at this information, I rermain your affectionate brother, "JOHN CUSSENI." PRINrCE_ iOiENLOfBE.
