A Miracle of the Middle ;des.
At a certain epoch, in the gdod old
medieval times,—so runs the legend,—
when the place now known as Perpignan
was but a rustic village, that small par-
ish, wras presided over by a cure, who had
managed to fall into disfavor with his
Bishop, The ;latter often had oeoasion
to chide him for his inattention, to the
clue of souls under his charge, always
.closing his reproofs with the apostolic
doctrine that -`` f=aith without Yorks is
dead." This last remark finally had its
effect upon the priest, who earnestly set
to work to redeem his character and re-
gain the confidence of his superior. He
betook: himself to fasting and prayer,
,meditatin rIn the night watches, awl WA -
tering with tears. At last, his i esoln-
tion wee token, and he drily waited an
opportunity to carry into effect his am-
bitious project, which was nothing less
than the working of a miracle, and the
atnverting of his parish into the .scene of
many mighty pilgrimages. i ,
N=ear by the village, in a sequestered
place, was a smaU field, occupied as a
pasture for a cow, which was watched
over by a simple boy of lazy .intellect—
one of those rare beings whom Longfel-
low
low somewhere describes as troubled
with a chronic suspension o£ the mental
faculties.
his -drowsy mind found a sy:mpathetie
friend in his own well-fed body, and
when satisfied that his gentle charge was
doing well, he was wont to roll upon the
turf, and go to sleep. , •
This season of the boy's repose was the
priest's opportunity. Taking with him
a handful of salt, he approached the do-
cile coca, and, by scattering here and
there a few grains, allured her to a cer-
tain spot where the sod. had been recent-
ly removed,and there deposited the re-
mainder upon the ground. The next
day, and for several sacceeding days, he
repeated ' this operation, • taking pains
each time to .remove some of the earth
before placing the salt in the exea,ated
place, until at last the cavity became so
deep that the animal was obliged to drop
clown" upon her knees, in order to reach
the coveted salt with her tongue.1,Yhen
•he had brought°her to this stage of her
education, he contrived in some way toi
rouse the sleeper, without -himself being
seen. The lad, on awaking, caught sight
of the beast on. .her knees, alpar•ently in
the Set of devotion and. kissing the earth
with pious effusion.: '
Overcome by exeitenient,:-lie bounded
off toward home, and with shouts and
wild gesticulations c•uused the whole vil-
lage,—men, women and children,—u-ho
came running with him. to the scene 'of I
operations. The shout, "a miracle, a
miracle," was instantly raised, and pass-
ed from month to month till the .wole
country round about • resourided with, it.
The cure was soon upon the ground, and,
as might be supposed;. was quite equal to
the gravity of the occasion. He ordered
the earth to be excavated, and what was
their astonishment to find, a few ekes
below the surface, a leaden statue to of
the _Virgin Mary, of about a cribit's
length ! This was carefully exhumed
and, a procession having been formed, it
was borne in great pomp to the- humble
village church, where it was placed upon
the altar. -
The following moi-nin , at the - first
sound of the Angelus, -the morning bell
for prayer,—the whole village came has-
tening to pay their respect to the new-
found Vir bi, but, on entering the
church, it was discovered that the image
had mysterious]; disappeared. Their
first thought was of the pasture, and
hastening thither, strange . to say, there
they found the cow, which had just been
turned out for the day, again prostrate
upon her knees, over- the same place.
On re -opening the earth, the statuette
was there seen reposing in the -same po-
sition as before. The people were about
to disinter it again, when the cure inter-
posed and arrested their work, telling
his simple flock that he looked upon the
miraculous return of the image to its for-
mer resting -place as a happy omen, and
that it might be interpreted as the ex-
pressed wish of the Holy Mother that
a chapel should be built in her honor,
uponthat very spot, to which the pil-
grims from all quarters might resort to
do her reverence.
The Bishop's sanction was sought and
obtained funds poured in from rich and
poor ; the chapel was built ; and' the
leaden Virgin was placed upon the altar,
whence, for many a. year, • she dispensed
her favors and miraculous cures to the
devoted pilgrims who came to her shrine.
Thus the edterpristng cure managed to
redeem his character ;. and the amiable
Bishop, seeing such proofs of kith unit-
ed to wor-ls, could no longer 'find it in
his heart to chide tae priest Who had so
su
eessfully wrought the miracle of the

,SIMPLE Dv 5r'EPSIA. REMEDIES.—Dys-
pepsia arises from a great variety of
causes, different persons are relieved by
different remedies, according( to the na-
ture of the disease and . condition of the
stomach. We, know of a lady who has
derived great benefit • from 'drinking a
tumbler of sWeet milk --the richer and
fresher the better --whenever burning is
experienced in the stomach. An elderly
gentleman of our acquaintance, who was
afflicted for many years with great dis-
tress after eating, has effects 1 a cure by .
mixing a tablespoonful of w eat bran in
half a tumbler of water, and drinking- it
half an hour after his meals. It is neces-
sary to stir quickly and drink immeldiatee
ly, or the bran will adhere to the glass
and become pasty.. Loffee and tobacco
a.re probably the worst substances per-
sons troubled with dyspepsia are in the
habit of using, and should. be avoided.
Regular eating of nourishing plain food,
and the use of some simple remedies
like the above, will effect in most cases
quicker cures than medicine.—Scientific
