Army has made his annual report to
the Secretary of War. The actual
strength of the regiments in service on

the elections is- having a good effect
in the Southern States. Those dispos

that ho will have peace, and will fight
it out on his old lino if necessary:—

. to the local
friends of lion. John Scott to know
that very many of the leading and
best men in every part of the State aro
nsitig his name favorably in connec

United States Senator. The election
of fir. Scott would give the Union
Republican party of Pennsylvania a
proud POsition.in the Senate of the
United States. •

HON. JOHN SCOTT,
pre find the following article in
the editorial colums of the Johnstown
Tribune of Friday last. Ceasing from
the home of Hon.'D. J. Ilorrell, our
popular and influential Congressman,
it is fair to suppose that it speaks his
honest sentimonts, which must give it
great force throughout the State:]
From the Johnstown Tribune.
"Pennsylvania has done nobly. Her
estimated majority of fifteen thousand
swells under the official count to thirty
thousand. The young, vigorous, and
progressive Northwest, with its almost
homogeneous population and immense
Republican majorities,cannot run away
from us. New York, once called the
Empire Stato,has thrown her vote away
and the South is no longer an imperial
power—net oven a balance of power in
the nation,
but Pennsylvania holds her
place, and her voice determines the fate
of policies and parties.
Thirty thousand majority ! What
shall wo do with it? Well, we ought
to keep it and we can. it is a groat
power, which will be ours for years to
come if we use it wisely, and we shall
not lose it unless by some false stop—
some retrograde movement, wo cease
to be the party of the people.
The election of Grant has opened • a
new fountain of office and honor in the
nation, and its pure streams will purge
away foul corruption in high places. No
individual or ring or clique brought him
forward, or nominated him, or elected
him, and he can make unbiased choice
of all officers within his appointing
power. He has been always noted
for his knowledge of men, and has nev
er failed to put the right man in the
right place. The country looks for
ward to an efficient arid honest ad
ministration, of national affairs. Pub
lic "credit has . again improved, the
funds have again become stronger,
and gold is cheapened once more by
another and the greatest of Grant's
victories.
What shall we do with the victory
in Pennsylvania? The majority upon
the State ticket in the October o!est'on
did not quite reach ten thousand:
lowing five thousand' for the Demo.
exotic fraudulent vote in Philadelphia
and elsewhere, there is still au im
mense' increase of fifteen thousand
votes`for Grant tobe accounted
It was partly by Republicans, but
largely by men whose patriotism rose
superior to party ties, and who should
be hereafter relied upon to , vote the
Republican ticket. To assure' this—
to make Pennsylvania as certainly
and as strongly Republican as Massa
chusetts- or lowa, wo want several
things, but wo especially want—may
we say , it without offense?—leader
ship. We have had in State politics
plenty of managing, wire-pulling and
faction-fighting; but we have not had'
—we must bo pardoned for saying it
—leadership.
By giving Simon Cameron, whcso
report as'Seerctary of War upon the'
, employme:nt of colored troops consti
tutes'a landmark in our national his
tory, a colleague of distinguished char==
actor and ability, Pennsylvania will
elevate.her State politics,,and for the
first time secure complete leadorebip
in the Senate of the United-- States.—
We say for the first time;,fOr'it is ne
disparagement to the . vorthy, 'men
Made Senators by UM Whig;" benne'
erotic and Republiizan parties, in days
past, to say that, though some of them,
as Buchanan for instance, were -sue-
Cessful politicians, they were arit 'in a
national sense great statesmen. ' Thus
Perinsylvaniri has been •Prrily dwarf•
ed in the national Councils; her ablest
men have represented merely a Con
gressional district,' and State polities
have been in the hands of rival cliques,
directed by men who could manage
but could not not lead. We do not
disparage them. Wo do rot deny
that they were good men of-business,
worthy fathers of families, and useful
men in their day and generation, but
their most fervent admirers would not
claim for them the ability of Clay,
Webster or Calhoun, nor would they
desire - to measure themselves with
Senators from other' States who are
known to England. and Prance as
Bright and Thiers are known in this
country.
Republicans of Pennsylvania! You
have had servants who have not eery
ed. vou ; you have had, you now have,
faithful servants, and we honor them,
but on behalf of Grant's thirty thous
and "majority 'we ask for, a 'leader in
the Senate of the United States., He
should bo a great
.lawyer, because it
remains for the National Legislature
tb.shape the verdict just rendered by
the people, determining the status -of
the seceded States and the industrial
and financial policy of the nation. He
should
,possess varied scholarship,
high order of eloquence, and should
be of pure personal character. Large
requirements these; but the bar of the
State, the bench', and thousands of its
citizens will agree with us' in saying
that they are more than filled by JOHN
SCOTT of Huntingdon. He is a man
of, the Schuyler Colfax type--honest
beyond cavil, earnest in everything,
ideal by instinct, with a, mind capa
cious of principles, pure in his as
sociations, and a devoted lover of his
country. He is a very Scot of,'Scotts,
as everybody knoWri who knows him,
and the tunica laticlatola rian all upon
no one who will wear it more becom
ingly'.
Brother Republicans! We say noth
ing against the worthy and able men
,who are . nominated by the' Press of
the State, but you know that several
citizens:are•persistently, pushing them
solves for this place. It is said that
one has the thing all set up, and is
sure of it. Our enemies say it is a
matter of bargain and sale, and that
another candidate has the money de
posited to secure it. John Scott' has
pot sought the office and will, not use
any low arts to obtain it. ',We had
hoped to bo first to nomitatO,Thirn 'in
the name dile people, but the Wee

and we second:the motion. If it could

A "strike" is in progrese among the coa
miners on tho Philipsburg branch.
r.e 4 Vice President Colfax recently
said in a speech at Pittsburgh :
"•I do not think Wade Hampton will
make any more platforms for• the Dem
eeratic party. Ido not think Yallan
digham will,nominate any more Pres•
Monts. Ido not think Preston and
Forrest will nominato any more Vico
Presidents."
We rather think to the contrary. Is
it to be supposed that the Democracy
will throw overboard such mon as
Hampton, Vallandigham, Preston and
Forrest? Judging from their asser
tions since the election, the Democracy
do not blame these men fdr, their de:
feat, but rather Seymour and Blair.
They deem it better to blame their un
successful candidates than the men who
by their very prominence helped to
defeat them. Hampton, Preston and
Forrest have an influence upon the
Democracy of the South, and if the
Democracy of the North should ropu.
diate them, or fail to recognize. them
Or their friends in any future conven
tion, they would enlist the demoerbey
of the South against the ticket, and put
up their own men. The fact is, the
Democracy. of the North is under the
thumb of the Democracy of the South,
and they must submit to their dieta-
Lion in the future' as they : did at'tho
convention in New: York: Of courso
so long asthey do—and no ono can tell
how long—just so long will they be re
pudiated by the people of the North,
and it Will not need so "popular" a can
didate as Gen. Grant to put against
their man in order -to defeat them.
The
: loyal people . . of the North ; and
South • have rendered their verdict
against Southern aristocracy and se
cessionism, and they will stand by that
verdict so long as they see that the
democracy is headed by the spirits of
discord 'and the ghosts of secession.

A WONDERFUL PHENOMENON.
The Late Earthquake Throw& lip Islands
of Pure Qems from the Bed of the, Pa
cific.
To tbo editor of tho Saint Louis Timor
One of the most extraordinary stor
ice over read or written has since a
late hour last night been gaining
ground in certain quiet quarters of the
city. It is so marvelous that one could
scarcely believe it to be anything but
the
_chimera
: of a
_madman's brain, if it
were not confirmed by scientific facts,
and by- a vast - number of the theories
of modern philosophy. It is difficult
to determine what amount of credibil
ity we should attach to' it, and it is
best tolet eVery'rnan who reads the
following paragraphs judge for himself.
It will be. remembered that the late
catastrophe hi South Aniorica (recurred
sitnultaneously with an extraordinary
eclipse of-the sun, which astronomers
affirm, has niieriecitrred before for two
thousand years and will not occur
again for two thousand years to come.
No event of equal magnitude to the
late earthquake in South America has
occurred since the days of Herculane
um and Pompeii; but the convulsion
which overwhelmed those two—cities
was nearly local (so far as is known),
and of scarcely any extent compared
to the lato catastrophe, which shook
the entire continent - of America, from
the river Sacramenio to Cape Horn,
and Which must; have been 'telt with' a
thousand times more terrific force out
in the wide Pacific. It must be borne
in mind that geologists affirm that the
crust of the earth in that quarter of
the
- globe is,much thinner than at oth
ers; and some of them oven go so far
as to say thlti the bed of the Pacific is
formed of a submerged continent. At
all events, the great majority of the
islands of the Pacific archipelago are
of volcanic formation, and navigators
have been known to discover islands
in these latitudes which they know'
from their provioui experience not to
have existed'sOnle years before. - It is
now, an established fact, that the entire
center of the earth is filled with, a boil
ing ocean of liquid fire, which horrible
nod enormous dresses is liable to the
same changes of ebb and flow as 'the
mighty mass of waters on the outside
crust of our globe. This horrible re
servoir has been described by Sir
Charles Lyele .and other profound
thinkers as the great furnace of na
ture, wherein are smelted all the met
als,—gold; silver, lead, iron, pie tin a,
Au.,—and which are afterward pushed
up to the sut:fae by the' volcanic ac
tion of the seething.ocean beneath. It
is here also ;that are , produced the
beautiful- diamonds and crystalized
stones, for it is now known that they
owe the forM and brilliancy they pos
sess simply to the fact that they have
been exposed to the high temperature
which exists in the center of the earth.
We could make diamonds out of char
coal, could we reach the proper de=
gree of heat; but that can, perhaps,
never be reached by any . artificial
means at the command of man. As
we said above the ocean of liquid fire
is subject to tidal motion,and it is to this
fact must bir 'attributed the fearful
events that , have desolated South
America. The; eclipse iii the East In
dies, where the sun and moon were in
direct conjunction, must have created
a`stronger tidal current than-has exis
ted two thousand years; and 'this cur
rent, rushing haek.withaceelerated ve
locity, shook, the crust of the earth in
the western homisphiare(just is a wave
of the ocean would shake the sides of
an old oaken vessel) and remitted up
to the surface the seathibg masses of
matter,whieh had been agitated-in its
besoM far ihouseiii4 of yeara: These
masses,. on coming.-in contact with
lower, tompinature instantly crystalli
zed just as water crystallizes into:, ice
in winter Lime.
The captain' of a vessel, trading be
tween San Francisco and Valparaiso,
describes whdt ho witnessed in the
Pacific ocean, but in what latitude he
keeps a secretlo"himSelf. This captain
has, or ratlter.had, a brother boarding
in a house on Nardi Fourth street, and
it is a letter which he wrote to his
brother that-has given occasion to the
rumors that are whispered about in
that quarter of the city. The- sub
, stance of the letter,- as it has reached
Us, is mainly as follows
• - When nearly half way on the voy
age, and at the time the earthquake
took place, a fearful phenom'enon•pre
' seated itself., The ocean became., con
vulsed to its highest depths, and a ter
rible wave was swept,-along so.
- high
that, as the 'captain butnorously said,
ho thought it would have landed him
in the city of Quito. The seamen were
terribly frightened, but the vessel was
to rights again in less than ten min
utes. The affair was a mere joke
among the men, for they fancied it
was one of the high tidal waves which
, are common in the:pacifie. They con
tinued their v4yago, but towards
midnight were :Alarmed by an extra
ordinary light,which,, appeared in the
! heavens, and wai`lit;st noticed on the
larboard side, and.which the ignorant
5 and superstitious attributed to super
natural. causes. - The
_captain, who
seems to be an intelligent and 'cour
ageous man steered his vessel right in
the directirM of thd light, and jtuit be
' fore sunrise a sight of magnificence—
! such as no human eye has ever rested
on—met his gaze. It was no less than
a group of islandri formed of hugo
mee
•ses.of solid" dianiond or every color,
and, in some places, of the purest Mil
lianey. 'The sailors fell into ecstasies,
; any ono man,, a half-breed• from the
Sandwich Islands,lost his senses so far
that he would have thrown himself
overboard 'if he had not been tied
I down. They sailed among the group
the entire day, and found it to consist,
I -on a rough calculation, at from 12 to
20 in number; but the exact number,
; or their relative size, there was no
time to ascertain. .They consist of a
large, white gint,rooks of crystallized
shape (some_ plasm nearly transpar
ent) which tise ton height Of about 150
; feet from the water, ; Thick, layers of
various'metalsere imbedded into them,
and the 'dirondrisls. form thick layers
beside thesaiattel-t t lfris is the general
formation; but some of the. smaller
islands aro nomposed nearly altogether
of diamond, in AV hie h Ali e emerald pre
vails. There are agate, opaque topaz,

hue; but ono island, which he describes
as being almost seventy miles long by

but the captain himself, satisfied with
what ho had soon, did not leave tho
vessel.
The mon describe tho interior of the
island on which they landed as consis
ting almost entirely of mud, which is
gradually coagulating under the heat
of the sun. A curious thing was, that
the brilliants were seen in the muddy
quarters of the island, lying about like
huge bouldors,—the smallest ones they
saw being about 200 tons in weght ;
but there were numbers of others con
siderably larger. Of course there was
no water or vegetation to be seen.
The most curious effort the sight had
on the men, both those in the vessel as
well as those who; thfited ; the island,
was that the extraordinary brilliancy
sickened their stomach, and vomiting,
followed by a copious discharge from
the bowels, was the consequence. All
efforts to detach portions Qf the dia
mond rock proved abortive; and it was
out of question to attempt removing
any of the great. hrilliant boulders.
Thoj• made an attempt to detach por
tions of rock by means of a crowbar
and sledge, but it was so hard all of
forts.wero useless, and, though they
had powder enough on board, they
had no implements with which to drill
the holes for blasting. The captain
would have proceeded on his voyage
to Valparaiso; but the men mutinied
and obliged him to put back to Pana
ma. Ile afterward, with the consent
of the crew, ran the vessel on shore on
the northern coast of Columbia, and,
telegraphing to the owners that she
was lost, came on as far its Aspinwall,
from which•city, ho wrote to his broth
er in Se.. Louis. 110 desired his broth•
er to come along at once, and bring
with him the finest and best tempered
implements for blasting purposes, and
if possible, a quantity of nitro glycer
ine. The brother departed for New
York immediately, but, before going,
he communicated the secret to a con
fidential comrade, through whom the
news leaked out only as late as yes•
torday evening. lam told that it has
already reached the ears of a rich jew
eler in this city, who is about to start
an' expedition which ho proposes to
carry on himself: It is more than
probable that the crew of the aban
doned vessel have anticipated him;
and if' they were lucky enough to keep
their secret and fit out a small craft
with whatever they required on board,

P. S=l forgot to state that the cap
tain writes that the entire bottom

gems for (IV least five smiles frees the is
lands. These will propahly nester be
of use, fol. they must hol huge rocks of
diamond, and cannot -be _detached an
less some better mode of blasting under
than that already practiced ran he in•
vented. I forgot also to add my con
jecture that the reason the diamond
rock is seen in its full purity aribes
from theihet that they were projected
right forward from the very centre of
the earth. What the captain calls white
transparent flint rock •is probably
some formation not known as yet to
geologists. This will be hotter under
