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

kilhd by the falling of the National Hotel.
The shock was felt a long distance, and in
fcveral places tbe prounJ opened and trees were
uprooted, hil's levelled, water courses changed,
and a general upheaving of theeartb took place.
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.

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

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.
