GEMTLEMEN.-On the 18th inst. wit
messed one of the most extraordinary phe-
nomenas perhaps ever witnessed in any
age. On my arrival at Princeton on the
evening of the 18th inst. l was informed
by Doctor Thompson and several other
gentlemen of high respectabillity, that al
youns orphan girl, aged IL or Is years, re-
sident in the family of the Hon. William
Prince, about seven miles from Princetonl
on the 9TH inst. commenced sweating|
blood; or in other words, the blood ram
freely from the pores of the skin ofher left
cheek from a space considerably larger
than dollar; that it continued in this
way until the evening of the 18th inst.
when it ceased that on the morning OF
the l2th large drop of black blood, the
size of large bean, suddenly emitted
from her cheek below the eye, to which
was attached sundry fibres, tendons, or
something which resembled the legs of a
large spider, which legs or fbres appeared
to possess life, by their manner of con.
tracing and extending themselves, some
thing similar to the legs of spider; thai
shortly afterwards lump OF pure clear
flesh, about the size of a large pea, sud
denly emitted from the same place, and II
few minutes a solid firm piece Of bone
near one fourth of an inch square, sudden
ly proceeded from the same place, ant
that no hole, opening, or appearance from
whence those substances emitted, coult
possibly be discovered by the strictes
scrutiny; that the girl remained in periec
health, entirely free from the most distan
symptoms of pain or soreness; and that n
change of colour or other singular appear
ance, manifested themselves at that par
OF the face more than any other part. Thu
have given, as briefly as possible, his
tory of the facts as related to me by ID
Thompson and others, on my arrival q
Princeton. DIR. Thompson showed me a
the same time sundry pieces of bone an
Jumps of flesh, which he had removed froI
her face with his own hand. Notwtl
standing the confidence which l felt m
self bound to place in the statement


those gentlemen, l could not persuat
even credulity itselfto yield belief to the
statements, in the fulness of her extent;
at least believed, that could witness Il
facts myself, could discover some hol
opening, or appearance, from whence tho
bones and Jumps of flesh proceeded. Is
Judge of my surprise On the next NOR
ing made visit for this purpose, in col
pany with Gen. John Neely and Doct
Thompson, and soon found myself boul

by Mrs. Prince, that nothing of the XII
had made its appearance since sun set
evening before. The girl appeared in p

her ordinary occupation; examined
closely; but could discover nothing III
