“ • New York, September 13.—Ijettera from
r ikwn D.an ninr. airlrllf innn I dnfnilo of tho
Lima, Peru, give additional details of the
recent disastrous earthquake and its effects.
Tbe earthquake commenced at half past
five o’clock on the 15th of August, extending
lrom Bolivia to life southern ports of Chili.'
The coast and over a hundred miles inland,
with tbe towns and cities mentioned in trie
dispatches of last night, were literally rained.
All the buildings which were not destroyed
* 'its ravages weie so badly injured ns to re-
re demolition for prudential reasons. 1
Ml the public edifices in Ariea • were Qi<L
iycd, including, the Custom House, con
ing more.,than four miUion.dailars worth
joods, all of which were lost.
The loss of the Predonia and the landing
of the.WniareeiarB desdrjbed as-follows:.
Tney were both at anchor in the harbor
of Ariea, near each other. After the first
shock had occurred on land, w|riclv. created
lgreat consternation on both vessels, Dr. Dn-
bois,” the Surgeon ol the Predonia, and tbe
Paymaster ot that vessel, took a boat and
wdnt. ashore to inquire for the welfare of
Trifenda,andlto,offer the services of the ship.
In'a few moments after ieaving the vessel, a
griat upheaving of the waters in the bay
commenced, and the Predonia, parting her
chain, .was dashed about at the mercy gf tbe
waives, and finally went to pieces on the reef.
Nothing of tbe vessel was saved. Her
officers aud crew, twenty-seven in number,
were lost, and also Mrs. Dyer, the wife of
the Lieutenant commanding.
The vessel had nearly two million dollars
rorth or fraval stores on-board} aji of which
-worth
were totaliy !o3t.
Tbe Wateree was more securely anchored,
bait dragged her anchors, and the great tidal
wave swept her four hundred and fifty yards
inland, atout two miles north of the ruined
totvn. She no.w lies between two hillocks of
sand, very slightly’injnrecP, and it wiil be ut
terly impossible to extricate her, aud Admi
ral Turner is only hopeful of saving her bat
tery and stores. Only one sailor was washed
overboard aud drowned.
Lieutenant Johnson, of the Wateree, was
ashore at the time, aud while carrying his
given, signed by any member of the committee,
together with the Chairman, five ineiubers-of
this committee shall be empowered to act lor
the whole. . i. i - , n*
We also recommend that sub-committees Lgf

The Peruvian corvette America shared the
same fate as the Wateree. She lost three of
ficers and thirty men.
Cnunmsndar Gale, of the Wateree, after
j ilie disaster, together with Dr. Winslow, of
that vessel, and Dr. Dubois, of the Fredonia,
were ,gf great service to the inhabitants, di-
viding their provisions among,the suffering,
and saviDg many lives by their medical and
§urgicai aid.

A petition has been sent here from promi

had been discovered at last advice*.
At Iriqnnis the shock iasfed four minutes,
after which the wave came and destroyed
about three quarters of ihe place, with'many
lives, nearly all ihe provisions, and the con
densing machinery which'supplied the in
habitants with drinking water. Provisions
and water have been sent there from Velpi-
raiso. Ooe German house at Iqaiqne lost
oyer $400,000 worth of property. Over six
hundred people were,drowned. At Ariquipa
the earthquake commenced a‘few minntes
past five in the afternoon. In five minntes
nearly every house in the city, was levelled
4 > the ground. The lower of Santa Catalinea
Church is the only thing left standing, and
that will have to be palled down. Neatly
ail the inmates of flrisopk and hospitals per-
ished in the destruction of these buildings.
Nearly one hundred heavy shocks occurred
in three days. The.city is one mass of com
plete ruin. The river has changed. Mount
Mistic is actually throwing out lava, smoke
and quantities of mad. The river emits a
sulphurous odor,’ and rocks and - earth are
constantly falling from the mountain’s crater.
No one dares to go where the city was. The
survivors are living in tents on the banks by
the river.
At Pancarphata hundreds of lives were
lost by being crushed to death by. falling
houses.
Others accounts state that an American
bark with a cargo of gnano, name unknown,
was swallowed np completely in the harbor
of Arica, and nothing more seen- of her.
Thu town of Chaqnega, nine leagnes ffom
Arequipa, was destroyed. Tacquin, in the
same neighborhood, lost sixty houses and a
hundred and fifty lives, mostly children re
turning from school. The towns of Schegra
was swept away, only twenty out of five
hundred inhabitants escaping. The earth
was opened in several places on the plains
and pampas and water has appeared. In
nomc places hot water vomited from 1 tjife
new chasms.
All the habitations at Otello were destroy^
eci and twenty lives lost. Three vessels,
with their crew, were also lost. All the ni
tre works at Iqaiqne were destroyed, as well
as tlieise in the suburbs, causing great loss.
The American bark Condor was lost at
Megillonea. Her crew was saved. The
British bark Henrietta was also lost. Crew
saved.
The amount of loss at Iqaiqne was over
$2.000000.
At the Cbincha Islands there was first a
hurricane, then the earthquake and the tidal
wave. Several English vessels were damaged.
A Prussian bark was Wrecked.
Four hundred tons of silver ore, with all
the expensive works of the Peruvian Mineral
Company, owned in London,: were complete
ly swept away at Iqniqu.e. The-towns of
Canila, Cbanchoy, Capaena, Cliarha, Hoba-
-eru, and olher small places were destroyed.
Los Soman has been united to an island in
the Bay of Callao by the action of the earth
quake. ■ :
Over three hundred thousand persons are
without shelter and bread. Commissions
are being formed, ladies are making clothing,
and i be Government of Pern is straining
its utmost to alleviate tbe distress.

and despoiled what remained. Heavy can
non were carried way up from the island
battery, and now lie bailed in the sand on
shore. The stench is siekening.
At Lima there was not much damage done,
although the shocks lasted about lour min
utes, creating the utmost consternation
among the inhabitants, who fled to the open
plains, where they besought protection from -
the Almighty.
Admiral Tamer, with thp frigate Powhat
an, left Lima with a fail cargo of provisions,
and had arrived at Arica, to succor Ameri
can seaman there, and inhabitants also. Hhe
will also save the effects of the tVateree. The
Kearsarge had also reached Arica, from Co-
quimbo, with provisions. AFrenchman of
war had also left Lima to aid the inhabitants
at Arica and other places on the coast where
people are starving.
Nearly all the towns and villages in the
mineral province of Huanca have been de
stroyed aud rqduced to shapeless masses.
The cities of Pano and Cozco were not dam
aged. The port of Moliendo, where are
slored'the materials for building Mr. Meigg’s
railway, was completely destroyed; nearly
all the tools, rails and provisions being ruin
ed by the enrthqnake and the succeeding
tidal waves.
Ibarra, capital of the Province of Imba-
_buru, San Pablo and AJtnntoqni are in rnins.
The entire population of these towns, and of
Otovato, perished, amouniing to nearly thir
ty thousand.
At Quito, the earthquake commenced
-about 1:20o’clock a. m., August 1G, and eon-
‘tinnettTrt; intervals for a few hours. Up to
the last'Alatesf 19th,-the churches, public
bnildiogsand private dwellings, were already
in rains, and the people living in tents in the
great Squares.
The towns adjoining Quito, named Vero-
sho, Paellaro, and Cochuquanjo have almost
entirely disappeared:with their inhabitants.
Few are left alive, being obliged to flee to
escape tbe pestilence arising lrom tbe de
composing dead bodies. Tbe towns of Vi—.
niclio and San Antonio have also disappeared.
' The number of deaths in the city of Quito
is ! notyht knofvn .^A large number of wealthy
inhabitants died from pestilence or disaster.
A Valparaiso letter dated August 17, says
advices fmaf Trifianifano state tbat’-at nine
o'clock ou tbe night of August 14 three-
earthquakes occurred. Tbe second caused
an immense tidal wave, which swept away
fdlly one half of the town, and rendering
ihe other half almost nninbabitable. Four
lives only were lost, the inhabitants fleeing
to the hills. At Tome the’ same occurred,
but bejng high, little damage was done. The
port of Oonstituein suffered from the wave,
but was not mnch damaged; several small
vessels were driven ashore and five men
-drowned. The town of Conception was also
damaged by the same cause. Cobija, Meril-
Idnes Islands, Pisaqua, and all the cities and
towns, in fact, from Cape Francisco,in Ecna-
dor to Magellan straits, suffered more or less
from the terrible visitatious of the earth

An Old Mun taken io tile Woods and
shot—His Dang liter Outraged by Five
A eg rues.
[From the Nashville Union of tbe 12tb.l
We lenrhisd yesterday 1 the particulars of a
horrible outrage perpetrated near Tyner’s
Station by five negtoes. Our informant, Mr.
Stautirfer, is a gentleman well known to the
citizens of Chattanooga and his statements
are true in every particular. He is a farmer
residing in the neighborhood ot tho scene he
relates. It appears that the viemity of
House’s Gimp Ground, about one and a halt
miles from Typer’s Btaiioa, in the eastern
part of Hamilton connty, has for some weeks
past been infested by a number of uegroes,
who have been a teiror to the citizeos by
their numberless thefts, and their outrages
upon the women of the farmers’ households.
On Saturday evening' last a family named
Gardner, from North Alabama, arrived at
the Camp Ground, as the village is known,
intending to make a permanent settlement.
Tbe family consisted ot Hiram .Gardner, an
old man of about sixty years, and three
daughters, nil attained to womanhood. They
had traveled from their old home in a wagon,
containing their few personal and household
effects. Arriviog in the outskirts of the vil
lage, they determined to slay there until tbe
following morning. After their irngal meal,
they laid down in the wagon and went to
sleep.
About midnight they were awakened by
loud noise3, and, starting np in affright,
lound that a number of negroes were in and
around the wagon. Mr. Gfitdineb, a feeble
old man, spoke to them. , .The negroes re
plied with oaihs, and, seizing Mr. Gardiner,
beat him severely. The .women screamed,
und, all-aid ot assistance arriving, the ne
groes hastily seized them, took them from
tbe wagon, and, tyiug the two eldest, look
the yonugest pt. the women, who.was about
twenty five ye irs old, and the father, bound
their arms, and, hastily mounting their
hoises, disappeared in Ihe woods.
The two women,bound to tbe trees, scream
ed madly, but no person came to their assist
ance, After a fearful night of suffering and
suspense, daylight dawned. Soon after day
light a farmer drove by the helpless couple,
ami at once went to their assistance. Un
binding them, they so >n told him their story
Tbe farmer took them in his own wagon and
haslened back to the village. The news soon
spread, und in half an hour a dozen strong
men, armed to tbe teeth, started out to fiod
the uegroes and their victims.
Taking the course pointed out to them by
Ihe two women, who accompanied them,
they rode.for about three miles .through the,
woods; when they dame upon the father and
daughter, lying on the ground within twenty
feel of each other, and both, to all appear
ances, ^ Mr -
.blood, and a bullet hole found in Tub* breast.
Miss Gardiner was lying enlirely naked, and
bore evident marks of outrage; Whiskey
was at once applied to both of tbe victims,
and in a short time they were euabled to be
moved. They wore carried back to the vil
lage, and by evening Mr. Gardiner recovered
sufficiently 10 1 elate tbe -cruellies to which
they had been subjected at the hands of tbe
barbarous aud merciless negroes. ,
Mr. Gardioer stated that the negroes, five
in number, had taken them rapidly to the
spot where, they were found, and, after dis
mounting, had tied him to a tree and two
of the negroes seized his daughter while an
other proceeded: to outrage her person
Maddened by the scene, feeble as he was
and numerous as were the negroes, he at
tenanted to break his bonds and . go to his
daughter’s rescue. His attempts 'were vain
nhd he cried out in anguish for help. One
Of the negroes with an oath,told him that he
wonld stop bis mouth and.immediately fired
at him. He .was bi| anfi jost oU conscious
ness of the hellish deeds of tbe negroes.
From the appearance of Miss Gardiner, it is
plain that alhof the negroes mnat have^vio-
latcd her person. The unfortunate girl had
not recovered sufficiently when Mr. Htantir-
ferleft, to tell her story. It is ■ doubtful if
she wifi recover at ail.
The citizens are afraid to .allow their
men out of their honfe3. “A perfect reign at
terror exists ; nll who can get away have
jone or are *going. Mr. Btanfirfer came to
This place on Thursday for safety.
. We leared last eveuiog that one of- the ne-
Jgrois had beeo arrested and conveyed to the
jail in Harrison.

the help of man can save her women from
