kOn the second of April, a quarter
M. Valparaiso w^ s visited by one
HHhecalainities 'o frequent in volcanic
edit titrate
The shock ever felt since the
B re, *.v the year 1822, when
Valparaisqlwßßjiost totally destroyed,
has created a equalled by any
former event.
A severe earth, of
fifteen seconds duration, pranged bv
less violent after shocks, to tvvcimmuies,
which two minutes appears as so many
hours to those whose lives and
were endangered, has in so short a time
destroyed several hundred dwellings, and
has made a great number of persons
homeless. |
The temperature during the earth
quake was hot and oppressive, but no aU
teration took place in the thermometer,
which stood 62.
During the eventful fifteen seconds, the
houses rocked to and fro as so many ves
sels at sen.
Not a breeze was perceptible during
the whole day; and slighter shocks con
tinued at 6 46 minutes, 6 56 minutes,
8 55 minutes, 10 55 minutes, and have
continued ever since, of more or less
strength and duration,
There was an abortive attempt made
to overthrow the government of Chili,, on
the 20th of April, which the Reporter
thus notices:
At litre o’clock in the morning of the
20lh inst. the battallion Valdivia marched
out their barracks, headed by Colonel
Urriola, and hoping to be supported by
the populace of the city, endeavored to
take by assault (he barracks of the artile
ry, for the purpose of procuring arms for
them. In the meantime the President,
with a large number of the national guard
and half the battallion of Chacabuco, to
gether with many volunteers of the high
est respectability, put himself at their
head, and put the insurgents to flight.
Letters from Guiaquil state that the
presidential election took place on the
24ih of February, and that sir Diego
Novos had been elected with 23 votes out
of 29.
Ilis election spems not to meet with the
satisfaction of the greater number of the
inhabitants of that republic, and the
province of Guayaquil is particularly
dissatisfied with the nomination of their
governor, Signor D. Manuel Carlm a
nephew of the Piesident, who is consid
ered to be a man of no merit and much
presumption.
If this is the case we shall hear of Qtfi
ther revolutions and bloodshed, and New
Grenada, which is daily increasing its for
ces on the frontiers, will find it very easy
to incorporate the same undee its own
government. jfm
SOUTH CAROLINA—RECESSION,
The citizens of our sister States seem
to be gradually returning to their senses
on the subject of secession. Many of her
most distinguished statesmen, after view
ing the impolicy, as well"as certain ruin
of such a course, are now openly opposed
to resorting to a step which could never
be retraced. In many parts of the State
the doctrine is openly repudiated, and
large public meetings have been held ex
pressing a decided conviction of the evils
that must follow its practical application.
This is a sensible conclusion, it must be
admitted, and the only thing strange a
bout it is that they have been so long in
making the discovery. The ranting of
such men as lately assembled in Charles- j
ton, is very well calculated to mislead the
public mind in reference to the future in- j
tentions of the people, but we begin to j
hope that the folly and suicidal course re- j
commended by that self-constituted con
clave of brim-stone patriots will yet
be checked and controlled by the better
judgment of the real people es South Car
olina. it is easy enough for a few dissat
isfied and reckless politicians to meet to
gether, on their own hook, as was the case
at Nashville, and more recently in Mont
gomery and Charleston, and resolve to
secede and split things; but when the |
people, the real substantial yeomanry of j
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Sic. |
delect the motives of the wire-pullers and ;
look the dangers full in the face, there is,
no great mischief likely to result. At j
such a time the disunionists, secessionists, j
and all the clan that have threatened to !
make war on the Government, will be iit-1
erally used up, the dark and Secret works j
of little trensoable conventions will be ■
trampled under foot, and the glorious old j.
Union with all its faults, be strengthened!
and sustained by the firm hearts and
strong arms of millions of freemen.

“The Bible is the best code of law in

A Great Truth.
A “Georgia Mechanic,” in a commu
nication to the Savanalt Republican, of a
week or two past, has the following pithy
paragraph t on ilte subject of teaching the
er '.'ianic arts to negroes, convicts and
malefactors:
“The negro mechanics all make money
have leasure lime, and indulge in great
excesses—are drunken, iheivish, lazy im
pudent and licentious—they corrupt the
slaves in our domestic circles, and even
poison the minds of the negroes upon
the farms and plantations. Their name
is legion in the work of mischief and vil
lainy. Gov. Hammond, ofSou’h Caro
lina, in his address before the Mechanics’
Institute, in Charleston, in 1849, said,
“The first step in the progress ol emanci
pation is the elevation of negroes to the
rank of mechanics.” If considerations such
these do not “show that the State is
B[t in jeoparday,” and tiie ‘public safety’
teftatened, ‘by the employment of slaves
inflate mechanic arts,’ / am at a loss to
imaghibfwhat would be sufficient, short of
an owl* demonstration. There are
other coqjEderations which should merit
attention. Mtathanical employment—
should receive Mslering support from leg
islation, or at least should not he legally
degraded. At this time, Penitentiary
convicts—the thieves, counter
feiters, the other malefacjtir&of the State
—are employd in mechanicjrtkpursuits,
or in other words, practically sentenced
to learn a trade as a punishment tor their
outrages! Slaves are likewise employed as
mechanics! Can it be wondered at, that
the standard ofmchanical reputation is
low, or astonishing that mechanics shot) Id
feel an interest in elevating the dignity of
their pleasure !’
Opening of the South Western Rail-
Road. —The last Macon Telegraph has
a very animated and cheering account ol
the opening ot the above road to Fort
Valley. YVe quote the article as follows:
‘After steaming it along thus for two
hours and twenty minutes, —taking up
passengers at the different stations, —
snuffing the plesant odor of the early har
vest fields, and catching cheering glimp
ses of country life and scenes, the parly
reached the pleasant and beautiful village
of Fort Valley at three quarters after 9 o’-
clock: the party from Macon in company
with it large concourse of ladies and gen
tlemen of the village and neighborhood
repaired to the beainifol grove in the yir.
cinity of the Depot where tlmglFresi
dent and officers ol the road were com
plimented upon the results and prospects
of their enterprise and the ladies and
gentlemen of the assembly
to the hospitalities and courtesies of
the people*’ of Fort Valley, in the
brief hut appropriate and graceful address
Dr. Miles 1.. Green. At the con
clusion of Dr, Green’s remarks, Mr. Rey
nolds, the President of the road was loud-
Iy called for and appeared to gratify the
multitude that had gathered in honor of
the occasion. His speech was a brief
acknowledgment of the compliment paid
to him and his associates, a reference to the
important event that had assembled them
together in its bearing upon the prospects
ofSouthwestern Georgia, and an eloquent
episode upon the resource of the State,
and the commanding position her Rail..
Roads had already given her among her
sisters of the conlederacy. He was—
cheered with great enthusiasm during the
delivery of this brief address, and was
afterwards called on by a large number
of citizens, anxious to make their ac
knowledgment for his untiring energy in
the prosecution of this important enter
prise.
‘These ceremonies being over, in a
littl while cotillion parties were formed in
the Railroad warehouse, and whilst the
j graver of the party employed themselves
in social intercourse and promenading on
j (lie adjoining ground, the more youthful
and vivacious joined in the animating
j dance. Thus delightfully whirled away
the time until the hour of dinner arrived.
A barbacue, composed of every luxury
which the hospitable and abundant neigh
borhood affords, was then served np, to
which the company did full justice, being
Well prepared with appetites, sharpened
by the invigorating exercises of the day.’
Killeo by an Elephant.-tWo learn
that a lad was killed by a blow from the
trunk of one of the elephants attached to
Raymond * Co’s menagerie, in Derby, du
ring the exibilion there on Wednesday. As
is frequently the case a crowed of boys were
feeding the animel with nuts, apples, &c.,
when the deceased, who was among thejnum
ber, wantonly punctured the trunk with some
sharp instrument, which enraged the elo.,
pliant.
Tho keeper cautioned the lad to keep
away after this occurrence, or he might be in
jured; but no heed was given to the warning
and soon after approached within reach of the
elephant’s trunk, from which he received a
blow on the head which prostrated him and
soon after caused his death.
