Little Squibs. Oar publio schools reopen
to day. .The heavens frown, and so do the faces
of the youngters. Weeks of idle summer rol
licking has given them a distute for pot-hooks and
spelling books. Nevertheless they must go to
their school desks, and lightened are the hearts
of anxious, worried mothers. Masons, carpen
ters, and painters have plied their busy hands
during the vacation cleaned benches, bright
ened rooms, and more space seek to dispel the
gloom of the little learners, The young ideas
are again going to shoot. Indignant
"biddies" ot dwellings next door to the
schools are already mustering the exple
tives of the Hibernian dialect, and
getting them ready, liuked for an outburst at
muddy pupil feet, saucy pupil tongues, lounging
pupil dozens, and destructive pupil knives.
Quaint hieroglyphics will soon appear in pencil
strokes and chalk marks upon neighboring doors
and house fronts. The lads hive no mercy that
way they can figure as readily on a door step
as upon a black board. The little lassies, too,
with their silvery rippling laughter and noisy
glee, know full well bew to make nervous the
ancient spinsters who may chance to live within
Bight or sonnd of their playground. The
cynical and scrupulously nice sbouldu't
tome near a school-house. We noticed several
ot the "awful" p jdagogues this morniug, stand
ing in magisterial gravity in the school gate
ways. From up and down the stieet gathered
the children. Free sport and free air during a
long recess had made them as ftee as uucau;lit
deer, and as impudent as uncaged jays. We
really pitied that grim sta'ue in the gate, as we
noticed their independent bearing. As for his
power and authority until the school bell raug,
thsy couldn't sue it, and their roguish eyes
and nadropped caps made manifest their in
difference. But look out. my lads, that old chap
is going to have a long siege at you during the
winter, and right merrily can he wield the
rattan. Cou your books, but not too much.
It you want to lie considered heavenly wise,
look solemn and say nothing. The only salva
tion of some men is in imprisoning their
tongues between their teeth. The first phrase
altered would make t fresh accession to the
already too entensive raoe of noodles.
We noticed in a certain paper an advertise

The N. Y. Tribune correspondent writing
from Panama, August 24, says:
In my last I Informed you that polltloal mat
ters on the Istbiuuv had quieted down, and
tbat peace, thanks to tne amicable arrange
ment between Correoso and Pouce, was once
more to reign. But these bright prospects
have become dimmed, and political matters
look as muddled as before. That portion of the
new-Hedged Mattalton liejenvrador who before
belonged to the mllltla have for the last two or
tbice days shown signs of discontent, if not re
bellion, while those wbo were disbanded refuse
to take off thulr tmldler-clothes. They are
anxious to serve the Htute, even If they suuuld

Trouble In Cliirlqtil.
The steamer Monnja arrived here early yes

perftct unlet prevails turoughout the interior.
In the Deparment uxmed, General Villareal,
the Governor, who ai left In charge of Ponoe,
has transposed himself Into a sort of Dictator
or petiy tyrant. He believes tbe people of the
Interior to have been born expressly for hlui
to tyrannize over and plunder. Tne greatest
Indignation Is felt to the people In navlng

tlou, ana only the wait of arms and ammuni
tion prevented tbem from making a duotded
stand to lepei me adventurer that nave been

It is reported that tbi Villareal bad marched
into the interior to u place called Dolega, and
had committed all kinds of outrages aud atro
cities, his men huving even gone so far as to
steal Hie rings and Ji,elry from the women,
and to break opu their trunks to steal their

Kartuquakes) at t'allao and Limn.
The correspondent of the New York Tribune
at Cailuo, wntlug August 14, relates the parti
culars vt the recent earthquakes: On tho 13th
Instant, abont 5 o'clock In the evening, the
cities of Callao and Lima were visited by a
evefe shock of earthquake, whloh In Its foroe
ana lengthened duration exceeded anything
of tbe kind In the remembrance of any of Its
inhabitants. The oscillation was from south to
north, and was very apparent, even to the eye.
Honses Sheared to roe like a ship rolling la
a cross sea. ?'he wildest and most extreme
terror and alarm w"?r universal.
Almost tbe entire popalaoo harried Into the
streets, leaving the houses deserted, personal
safety being the only thought. Borne prostrated
themselves on their knees In the streets, while
others gave themselves np lor lost. During tbe
"uj ujHt ids anocK lasiea notuing outoonra-
sion ana siU. r.?T iu-
ringing a inournfal voluntarypeople raspea ,
to and fro, and women and children walled
plleously. At 6 o'clock another slight shock
took place, lasting only three seconds. Owing
to tbe construction of the bouses and other
buildings In the city of Callao, whloh are prin
cipally of adobe, scarcely any damage was
done. Lima also esoaped serious results.
Tbe worst nnrt of the calamity was reserved
for Callao. About 7 o'clock tbe sea began to
rise, the tide being eight feat higher than usual.
Tbe waves then receded 100 yards, leaving tbe
land dry. In about ten minutes the water re
turned with astonishing rapidity, and this time
to a height of ten feet, at which It remained for
six minutes; It then receded, and continued
ebbing and flowing In this manner until 8
o'clock, when tbe water appeared to be going
out, not rising so high nor ebbing so low as pre
viously. In about an heur the water again
oegan to rise, ana continued rising until mm
nlKht. The inhabitants of Callao were now
completely panic-stricken, fearing a repetition
of tbe fearful catastrophe of 1764. Everyone
left tbe city, except tne soldiers and police,
who remained to guard property from thieves.
By order of tbe Inteudente. trains randurlog
the whole of tbe night, carrying passengers gra
tultously to Lima. At 1 o'clock the water had
risen to the extraordinary holgbt of 30 feet, and
was rushing Into the city. The mole was badly
damaged, as lso the hotels de Uomaand Italia.
A qnantlry of lumber and goods in the vloluUy
of the railway station were also damaged.
Home thieves afterward attempted to steal pro-
ferly left unprotected; several werecaughtand
mmedlaiely sent to prison. An unsuccessful
attempt was made to throw a train loaded with
passengers off the track, and tbe engineer fired
upon, but fortunately without effect.
BOLIVIA.
Arrival of an American Ship I.olctl
Willi Arms.
According to Information received here
(Lima. Aug. 14) there was quite an exoltement
created at the port of CobIJa by the arrival of a
ship from New York having on board two
thousand stand of rifles, and other munitions
of war.
Mr. Salmon, tbe Peruvian Consul at that port,
by accident gained a knowledge of these arms,
which, it Is said, were Intended for the port of
Iqulque, to give a blow to the present Govern
ment in favor of Prado. in connection with
Arlca and Tacua. Tbe Peruvian shlp-of-war
America, which is stationed at Arlca, was dis
patched for tbe port of CobiJa to bring away
these arms. Before she arrived, however, the
Peruvian Consul had shipped the looks of 340
rifles to tne Bolivian Consul at Tacua. and after
repeated conferences between the autnorltles
and tbe Captain of the America, It was deolded
to send tbe remainder of the arms to the same
Consul at Tacua. Tbe goods were deliverable
to order; It 1b therefore Impossible to detect the
importer.

THE KIDNAPPING STORY.
A Little Criminal Jlonxes the Credulous

Some weeks ago the papers of the country

wholesale kidnaDOing scheme. Tho f'hlnn,,r

Our readers will, doubtless, remember the lm

with flaming heads, of an account of the kldnap-
tng ot neury narvcy, a iaa twelve years or age,

and there incarcerated with a number of other
unfortunates in a cellar, with their mouths
covered with plasters, and the escape of Henry
and another boy. The police were put
upou mo Bceut auti woiseu long and
well in eudeavoriDg to discover where
this prltou was, where such inhuman
practices were carried on. and relieve th Mitfvr.
ing children who were confined there. For days
and weeks did they search, with philanthropic
zeal, but to no purpose. The boy was put upon
the stand and questioned by the hour, and still
told the same heart-rending tale, never varying,
or croesing himself in any particular. At length
the case was given up. The gipsies, who were
creaitea ior ice outrage, were loralven or for
gotten, and the affair suuk into nhlivinn. Tn
boy Harvey turned up this morning in a new

Officer Hefter had arrested him for stealing i
lot ot stove lids from some stove store, and
his mother said he bad tiken a sum

Robert Ould's Argument for Seymour.
From the Hartford Pott, Sept. 3.
Mr. Robert Ould reopened a rich political
mine when, he started the discussion of the
question of responsibility for tbe cruelties
firacliced upon Union solders during the itebel.
Ion. The Intent of Mr. Ould. doubtless, was to
fasten It upon General Grant and the Federal
authorities. The Democrailo press have vigor
ously seconded the efl'ort In tbat direction, and
through it his communication has been widely
circulated throughout tbe country. The result Is
tbat the boys who enjoyed the hospi
talities of our Southern Democrailo
friends in Belle Isle, Libby, Anderson
ville, Mlllen, aad other places, have taken
hold of the subject, and have given It more of
an airing than Mr, Ould and his associates con
templated or desired. They are pressing the
Inquiry through the columns of Republican
papers in various parts of the country. Taev
have a keen remembrance of the Joys of their
captivity, and areexceettlnalv anxious to know
what has become of their good friends who fad
them so bountifully, treated them so hand
somely, clothed them so well, provided "dead
lines" aud bloodhounds, and other such cam
forts for them, and generally earned the grati
tude of tbe Union prisoners. They want to
know how their old keepers are going to vote
in the coming election. They remember hear
ing from their Btockades and prison pens, the
humane aud benevolent men who stood guard
over them, rend the air with cheers at the
election of ueymour as Governor of New York
in 1802, and they are curious to know If these
men are ss loud In his praise now as theu, and
whether now r hat, they hove the opportunity,
they will vote for htm for President.

Organised.
Wilmington, feepu 7. uu Saturday nurht a
nrgro, a former member of the League, bat who
recently abandoned that organization and joined
a colored Democratic club, was called oat et his
bouse and shot through the heart. The affair
created a great deal of feeling. The whites
generally believe the Republicans are deter
mined to bring oa a collision. There has here
tofore been so Ku-Klux or other secret Demo
cratic organizations in this State, bat it is now
understood and believed that energetic efforts
will be made to organize some secret order as a
matter of self-defense.
There can be no doubt of one thing that a
great majority of tbe people here long for peace.
It is all they ask and all they want, but the
coolest and most libsral minds here seem to
have arrived at the conclusion tbat the immedi
ate future is fraught with the most momentous
issues. It is the sentiment of practical, think
ing men here tbat prominent Northern men Of
conservative views, like Millard Fillmore, should
come South and address the people. Everybody
here favors peace, but the whole thing lacks
definite shape.
