The earthquake that took place in Chili io 1835; the most severe felt in America up to the last measured otily seven' hundred geo graphical miles in latitude'by Tour hundred in longitude. In the one-we speak of to-day the force of the- shbterraneaa movement ex- teuded eight hundred and thirty miles of lati tude by six hubdred of longitude. A letter from Tacna says that during the' earthquake a large light was seen in the atmos phere at a considerable elevation, unknown in meteorological pbenomena. Anotlier trivcller says tint: 'ie saw the Tambo of “Apo” placed’ in-the top-6f tbe Cordilleras tall to pieces. ,:i ( •“ ’* i.
