For several days previous the voIcmuo ot Culima, thirty miles lrom the city, had exhibit', d symptoms of internal commotion, teudicg forth smoke and steam, occompauied by rumbling and shakings of the earth. Ou the morning of the 20th there was a gentlo locking of the earth, which gradually increased in violence until walls ctacked and everything breakable iu the houses was demolished. Tue vibrations were from nrtueast to soutbwest, and lasted nearly torty secon ls. Tne cathedral, vt urcbouse, and brick buildings were cracked lrom top to bottom. The people, startled troni sleep, rivhcd frantically lor the phiya. It is leported that several persous were kilhd by the falling of the National Hotel.

At the citv ot Man an ilia, the cathedral building, which had. stooa the shocks of earthquake and H ornis for over a century, was riven from top. to bottom, and tven the tiles of the roof were bioken. Some eighteeu or twenty persons weie crushed by ihe falling wall of the American Hotel, aud three persons were buried in the ruins of the warehouse of Wassermau & Co. CELESTIAL A L Oil EM Y. At a recent meeting of the Oriental Society, tLe Rev. William A. P. Martin, of Pekin, read a paper on th4 "Study of Alchemy in China." Alter tracing brielly the connection between alchemy and ohemititry, the paper proceeded to its main object, namely, to demonstrate that the origin of European alchemy was to Le sought in China. In support of this view tLe following considerations were addaced) and illustrated by citations from Chinese and other works: 1. The study of alchemy had been in fall vigor in China for at least six centuries before it made its appearance in Europe. It did not appear in Kurope nntil the fourth oentary, when intercourse with the far East had be come somewhat frequent. It appeared first at Byzantium and Alexandria, where the com merce cf the East chiefly centred, and was subsequently revived in Europe by the Sara cens, whose most famous school of alchemy was at Bagdad, where intercourse with Eastern Ana was trequent. 2. The objects of pursuit in both schools were identical, and in either case twofold immor tality and gold. In Europe the former was the less prominent, because the people, being in possession of Christianity, had a vivid laith in a future life, to satisfy their longings on that head. 3. In either fchool there were two elixirs. the greater and the less, and the properties ascribed to them closely correspond. 4. The principles under lying both systems are identical the composite nature of the metals and their vegetation from a 'seminal germ. Irdeed, the characters tsing for the germ, and t'ai for the matrix, which constantly occur in the writings of Chinese alchemists, might be taken tor the translation of terms in the vocabulary of the Western school, if their higher antiquity did not forbid the hy pothesis. 5. The ends in view boing the same, the means by which they were pursued were nearly identical mercury and lead being as ooLBpiuuous in the laboratories of the East as mercury and sulphur were in those of the Webt. it is of less sigmncanoe to add that ruarjy other substances were common to both schools than to note the remarkable coinci dence that in Chinese as in European alchemy tbe names of the two principal reagents are uted in a mystical sense. ti. Both schools, or at least individuals in both schools, held the doctrine of a cycle of changes, in the oonrEe of which the precious nietala revert to their baser elements. 7. Both are closely interwoven with as trology. 8. Both Ud to the praotice of magical arts and unbounded charlatauiEm. 9. Both dealin language of equal extrava gance; and the style of Europeau alchemists, so unlike the sobriety of thought character istic of the Western mind, would, if con sidered alone, give us no very uncertain indi cation of its origin in the fervid fancy of the Odent. A Reeky Mountain paper publishes an obituary notioe of the famous "Jim," ohlef of the Washoe Indians, who died recently. Jim seems to have possessed many virtues. lie is (aid to have been a good though very dirty red man. He possessed a well-balanoed head of hair, and stomach enough for all he could get to eat. Ills regard for truth was notable he never meddled with it. lie left no will, and his estate, consisting of a pair of boots, will have to be settled by his heirs through the medium of a game of "old sledge." After life's fitful "fever and ague" Jim Bleeps well. STUDENTS' LARKS. Tbe Amenities of Colleic Lire. General Daniel Pratt, Jr., the ereal American traveller, was i Andover last Wednesday after noon, and started thence for Lawrence on toot, the distance being several miles. Hol far had he piogiesstd on uis journey when two young ruem overtook him on the way aud announced tbemtelvcs as a committed of tho academicians ot Andover, deputed to iuvlte htm to make an addms. They could not entertain him lu the to n hall, for it whs engaged ; none of the other public places could be had, since the faculty had control and would not allow them to be used lor the lecture; but they would provides place ku the open air, where nobody could lu terlcie or pi event their hearing his words of wisdom. They promised him good fare and i ecunlary proat. Accordingly he girded up his loins, turned in his tracks, and went with tbe jcung mtn to the beautiful hill of knowledge, Daniel Piatt had a glor.ous supper that night, in company with a select trio, in an appurte nance of the Academy. Stndiously he was kept oui cf the way ot the ''proctor.'," that the coming treat should not be prevented by the hand of Hcadenicul authority. The place aud time appointed circulated among the students, sub rota; and vt hen eight o"clock came a large crowd of hopeful (?) young fellows was gathered before the di rumory building, in which General Pratt was an honored guest. A window of tlie corr dor on the second floor was tnkeu out, and there General Pratt appeared, aud wa3 received with hearty appiautc The General since then, has furnished, In his on handwriting, a brief sketch of hii subiect, lu these terms: "I addressed them about one hour on Faith, in connection wiih women's rights and suffrage; the Atlantic nrd Pacific Railroad; our inland cun tuerce with China; and the faith and the works of the capitalists; employiug men aud women fcr tbeir faith and works; and there is no rower and value in steam, olood, and mind, unless they are placed where they can be governed and regulated." When the enercise was nearly through, a collection wns taken up for Mr. Ptntt, and (ust iu lime. For the President, hearing tbe cheers and laughter of tbe boys, came trudging over the gieen to see what was up. The boys caught sight of him when near at hand, and with a cry and shouts of merriment, scattered. General 1'ratt says that it did the looker on &ood to see the chase. Cue boy was canght, but no result came of It, and then the President went into the dormitory buildice. The open window on the second door told no tales; and in all tbe rooms into which tbe eye of the noble heal of the estab lishment looked, the young men were found poring over tdeir books in a stale ot remarkable studiousnes?. In a chamber of one of these very rooms General Pratt was quietly seated on a bed, and remained theie till the President, endling to himself, went off. Daniel did not get away unseen, after all. The wakeful President met him face to face on the street. "Ah, Mr. Pratt, it is you, is it?'' fu d then went on to tell him that he did not wish him to come there excitlug his boys. So Dnriel departed, with his money in his wallet, the stiidcuts had enjoyed an hour of recreation, and Phillips Acadrmy was no losr. This is the narrative of Daniel Pratt, who remirks tht, after he got the collection, he was coming to the most interesting and instructive part o HicoAn fan aVinn I h a rv r i 4 t n rr rr it a iliininrn.l "He would have given 'em something worth Hearing," ne says. Good Krcad. In a lecture on the "Philosophy of the Oven," Professor E.N. Horsrord thus described the method of making good bread: Select good, plump, fully ripened, hard grained wheat. Have it freshly ground, and not too finely bolted. Prepare the yeast as follows: L'oil thoroughly with the skins on, in one fiuart of water, enough potatoes to make a quart of mashed potatoes. Peel the boiled potatoes and mash them to fineness; mix minutely with them one pint of Hour, and stir the whole to an emulsion with the water in which the potatoes were boiled. Cool the product to about 60 degrees (luke warmness), and add half a pint of the best fresh baker's yeast aud a tablespoonful of brown sugar. Set aside the mixture at an temperature of about 80 degrees, till it works well, or is in active fermentation. Of this yeast take half a pint to a gallon (7 lbs.) of flour, mixed with three pints of water, or two of water and one of milk, all at the temperature of about 60 degrees, add a little salt, knead thoroughly and set aside to rise at the temperature mentioned. When it has risen to nearly the full volume for the dough, divide it into loaves, set it aside at tbe temperature; already named till it attains the full size of the loaf, and place in an oven heated to not less than 450 degrees. Let the loaves of dough be smaller than the tixs. Keep them covered with flat tin plates or stiff paper till the dough is fully raised and the heat carried up to and sometimes main tained throughout the loaf at 212 degrees, to convert all the starch to the muoillaginoua or emulsion form and destroy the ferment. Then remove the cover and permit the brown ing to take plaoe. If the loaves are large a higher temperature will be required. Seven pounds of flour will make eight loaves of pounds each when baked, or lour of 2$ pounds each. Such yeast will keep a week in winter, and'from two to four days in summer. Bread made with it, in faithful obedience to these in structions, will be good. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. Three ladies are lecturing in Paris. Lady Franklin is a woman-suffragist.
