HARTRANFT, OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY Surveyor General: Gen. JACOB M. CAM PB E L L, OF CAMBRIA COUNTY. THE SOUTH ARLEHIC.tN CAIAIIIrY. The accounts published this morning of the terrific natural convulsions which have taken place in South America,are of the most start ling and tragical character. Even after al lowing something 'for the necessary exag geration of the results of such an overwhelm ing calamity, the detailed facts of which there is certified evidence are sufficiently dreadful to impress the mind with the unsub stantiality of this solid earth, and to teach men their utter insignificance in the presence of the sublime and awful forces of nature. Since the earthquake at Lisbon, in 1755, when the whole city was destroyed, and 60,080 persons were swallowed up in an instant, there has not been such a disastrous convulsion of the earth as that which we record to-day. The greatest that have occurred during the present century were, first, the extraordinary mani festations that took place in Missouri in 1811, terminating upon the day when the city of Caracas, far away in Venezuela, was totally destroyed, with its 12,000 inhabitants ; and secondly, the earthquake in 1859, which overthrew Quito, and a multitude of .smaller towns in Ecuador. But the aggregate loss of life and property in the recent catastrophe appears to have been much greater than in either of these, and we realize with added force its frightful character, from the fact that two vessels belonging to our navy met with such a singular and melancholy fate. The extraordinary series of earthquakes, hurricanes and volcanic eruptions which oc curred in the Sandwich Islands, but a month or two ago, were of such a violent character that they may be ranked with the greatest; but the extent of the injury done was neces._ sarily small compared with that inflicted up•rn the densely populated districts of the Conti nent. Whether there was any direct connec tion between the two manifestations is left to conjecture. This earthquake seems not to have differed in any of its peculiar features from those which have preceded it. There was the usual upheaval of the ground and the divisi of the earth into yawning chasms, in which men and buildings were swallowed up; and there was also the enormous tidal wave, which swept in upon 'lc, shore, bringing with it destruction and death. This latter characteristic distinguished all of the convul sions to which we have referred, and it will be remembered that a precisely similar wave poured in upon the island of St. Thomas during the period of convulsion last year, and in a like manner hurled an American vessel far up on the land. There are many other points of resem blance between the present phenomena and those which have been displayed at former periods: At the time of the great Lisbon earth quake, extraordinary manifestations were visible throughout continental Europe, in Great Britain—especially among the lakes of Scotland, in the West Indies, and in the northern part of the United States, where severe shocks were felt, and where the waters et Lake Ontario were strangely agitated. The atmosphere at this time, as well as at the period of the subsequent convulsions, gave evidence of being highly charged with elec tricity• in connection with the present dis aster it may not be pertinent to refer to the earthquakes and eruptions which caused so much suffering in the West Indies last year. But it is weil known that Vesuvius has been in a state of a(tiNe eruption for some time past, and by the last European mail we bad accounts of a series of severe earthquake shocks in the neighborhood of Gibraltar. It, is but a few weeks, also, since we recorded a mysterious rising and subsidence of the waters of Lake Erie. • nisibly this latter phenomenon may have been attributable to a widely different cause, but the action of L'tke Ontario ttpon a former occasion given color to the contrary theory. The condition of Itie atmosphere during the past summer, in Europe particularly, may perhaps be traced to the conditions which produce the earth- quake shocks. The whole subject, however, is enveloped in impenetrable mystery, - 'and the most sagacious philosopher can only in dulge in wild conjecture. To this mysteri ons character, as well as to the utter inability of man to avoid the disastrous consequences of earthquakes, is to be attributed the terror which such manifestations inspire. When men feel the substantial earth itself rent and shattered beneath. their feet, they may well tremble at the thought of their insecurity. There have been multitudes of theories ad vanced in the attempt to explain thesepheno mesa, and the most satisfactory of these at tributes them to the sudden expansion or contraction of gases in the volcanic centres. Irresistible force is thus given to the earth in the vicinity, and this impulse is communica ted to adjacent matter with a force propor tioned to its elasticity, and it is passed round the globe, very much as the shock caused by a blow from a hammer upon a stationary iron rod, would be communicated to an ob ject at the further end. The fact that earth quake-shocks almost invariably have a pro gressive horizontal motion, gives strength to this theory. But it is theory and nothing more. It is probable that all these perturba tions are manifestations of subterranean forces which thus forewarn us of the certainty of the coming of the day, when they will exert their fullest predestined strength, and " the great globe itself Yea all which it inherit shall dissolve," and Scripture prophecy in relation to the destruction of the earth shall be fulfilled. THE WAS CLOUD IN EUROPE. If the variable and conflicting rumors sent from Europe by the cable news-man could be traced to their several sources, they would probably be found to be manufactured by stock-jobbers and speculators. A flurry for a single day about a war in Europe might make the fortunes of the "bears." A pacific speech from Napoleon, or King Wil liam of Prussia, might, in like Manner, bene fit the "tulle." A couple of days ago, there was news telegraphed of an important re duction in the Prussian army, which, taken as an assurance of peace, put up French r(.7itcs and other government securities. To day, however, a despatch is published which malts it appear as if a European war was on the point of breaking out, and along with it comes the fact of a great depression in rents. Of course, these quick and sudden changes have made and unmade many a for tune ; fit other investments besides those of government securities must of course be more or less affected by their rise or fall. The latest war rumors are based upon the affairs of the Papal States. France, it is said, is not going to recaLl her troops from Rome; but she is recalling some "fighting re giments" from Africa. The Emperor is go ing to make an alliance with Spain for the Pope's protection; so that with the Papal States garrisoned by Spanish troops, he may use all his army for the expected war The King of Prussia has determined to annex the Grand Duchy of Baden. If this is a verity, then the rumored reduction of the Prussian army cannot be true. These, however, are a few of the rumors that are agitating continen tal Europe, and they may not amount to any thing. There does not seem to be any exist ing difficulty that could form a decent pre text for a war. Neither the French people, nor the Germans, nor the Italians want a war with any power. So, with all the gossip of the correspondents, we incline to the belief that there will be no ivar. By all means "let us have peace," in Europe as well as in America. THE NINETEENTH Walt° MIMSTEEti. Almost a week has now elapsed since the discovery of the cruel murder of the little Mary' Mohrmann, and the mystery which enshrouds the terrible crime is apparently as profound as it was when her mangled re mains were drawn from the pond where they were thrown by the monster who despoiled her of life. During the period that has elapsed since the discovery of the butchery the most earnest efforts have been made to obtain a clue to the perpetrator of the crime. The entire detective force of the police has been engaged in the effort to solve the mys tery; medical skill has told the story of the manner of her taking off; the Mayor of the city has stimulated the wits and energies of all who chose to enter upon the task of detection by the offer of a handsome reward, and yet, despite all these aids to justice, the snuiderer is still at large, and the foal deed remains unavenged. But we do not despair of the ultimate vindication of justice. The annals of crime all over the world are full of itstances where criminals were made to pay the penalty of their crimes after they fan( ied that the lapse of time had Secured for them an immunity from punishment. The arrest of Muller, three thousand miles away fre m the scene of his crime, weeks after the murder of Mr. Briggs in England, is a recent case in point. In the case of the murder in our ( WTI city of the boy Lehman by the Sku pinEki brothers, weeks elapsed before the body of the murdered youth was even f .uod, at d the murderers, who fancied they te•(1 h stroyed all traces of their connection with the crime, were finally tried and exe cuted. In the ease of the latest horror there meet have been some scream, some myste riellF movement of the assassin, some tempo rarily f( , rg. aten incident, which will be recalled to n lid and which will serve as a clue to the solo ion of the dread mystery. Jr will he remembered that the evidence against Armstrong for the murder of Craw ford was entirely circumstantial up to the time the testimony before the Court closed. After the argument of counsel, and when the case was about being given to the jury, a witness was discovered who saw the fatal shot fired, and who fully identified Armstrong as !he man who fired it! His evidence was allowed by the Court, and the guilt of the pi ironer being made unmistakeable and clear, he was condemned and hanged. This reluctant witness was a German, who was ignorant of our laws and customs, and who, feared of becoming involved in trouble if he disch . stet what he had witnessed, kept his terrible secret ro himself until the eleventh hour. It is au old and homely maxim that "murder will out," and the" great poet has better expressed the same idea when he said that lilollol t have 130 tongue, will speak V. ILIA mobt uaruculbue organ." THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN---PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1868 The election - inrldsdne comes off to-day, and there are sanguine expectations that there will be such a report from there as will settle the Presidential election beyond a per adventure. The Democratic press, mindful of Vermont, is hard at work preparing for a Waterloo defeat, and we. shall have loud cries to-morrow. from the World, and all the rest, that "the Dutch have taken Holland." The pillow which the World has been inflating to break its fall, is the vote 01,1864. It is as serted that we cannot count any gains until we pass 20,000 majority. Why a State elec tion in 1868 must be compared with a Presidential election in 1864 is not ex plained, but all the indications are that we may even accept that test. There seems to be much confusion as to the vote of 1864. The North American this morning calls it 24,542, and the Press by a typographical error in its tables, makes it 27092. The ac tual majority was 17,592, and it the Democ racy insist upon taking 1864 as their stand ard, it is from that standard that they must work. But this standard is a purely fictitious one. The true comparison is between the Gov ernor's election last year and this. Last year Chamberlain's majority was 11,614, and whatever Maine does to-day, better than that, goes fairly to her credit, as a solid gain. We are not accustomed to enumerating embry onic poultry,but all the signs point to a mag nificent victory for Republican principles to day. We shall know all about it in the morning. "Colonel" Thomas J. Miles, Democratic orator, is miserably unhappy lest "Sambo" will insist upon getting in, and not behind his chair, at his dinner table. His argument is tremendous. Behold ! "If I grant tam the high privilege of the franchise, with what grace can I deny him the privilege of dining with me ?" There is some doubt whether "Sambo" would consider the latter a very desirable privilege, hut if the eloquent "Col onel,"—a title which reads so comically in the light of its owner's war record,—really wants an answer to his question, we beg to inquire how many of his audience of last Saturday nightlX4nuld claim the high privi lege of puttting their legs under his ma hogany with any hope of having their claim allowed ? It will not quite do to establish the ballot-box in the middle of the Miles dinner-table. The successor to Thaddeus Stevens, in the Congress of the 'United States, is to be 0. J. Dickey, Esq. After a remarkably exciting contest he received the nomination Of the Republican party of Lancaster county, on Saturday, for the unexpired term of Mr. Stevens and for the Forty-first Congress. A letter from a correspondent in Lancaster, in to-day's paper, mentions same interesting facts concerning Mr. Dickey, whose nomina tion is, of course, equivalent to an election. It would be rather trying for any man to take the place vacated by Mr. Stevens.; . but pro bably no man in the district could stand the trial better than Mr. Dickey. On all the main doctrines of the Republican party his views are the same as his prede,cessor's; and while he is not likely to make so.distinguished a figure in Congress, he will be a faithful, earnest and useful representative. A few days ago the gaAcon Beauregard re marked, before a number of gentlemen at the White Sulphur Springs, "General Grant is the most over-rated man at the North." Al exander H. Stephens came into the room as Beauregard made this characteristic speech, and asked him to repeat what he had said, which Beauregard did. "Well," said Stephens, "all I can say is, that I consider General Grant the most under-rated man in the United States !" Stephens was not so far from the truth as he sometimes is. "Colonel" Thomas J. Miles got off a won derful piece of Democratic oratory at a fiag raising in the Eleventh Ward on Saturday night. Knowing the "Colonel's" peculiar style of oratory, we feel thak the speech loses much when reduced to sober type; but there are some flashes of wit and humor that printers ink cannot disguise. His happiest bit of drollery was his last,when he exclaimed, in a fine fervor, "AS'ee that not a fraudulent ballot goea into the box!" What fun it must have been to hear the brave "Colonel" get off that sarcastic bit of advice. All intelligent men should read everything that is published of General Grant's letters and orders. These records form a wonderful mass of testimony to his fitness to fill the Presidential chair. His clear, steadfast loy alty; his love of liberty and of truth; his strict impartiality; his habitual determination to root out abuses and to pursue a policy of re trenchment and economy; all these high qualities come out in his letters, written years before any one ever dreamed that the possi bility of the Presidency was before him. Read these proofs of the man's fitness for the post, and then labor faithfully to place him there. SRleo by ThonAns dr. Sons, Auctioneer►. September 15—Real Estate and Stocks at the Ex chnne.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.—The steamer Idaho, from Honolulu August 29th, has arrived. The great tidal wave on the Pacific coast was experi enced on the shores of the entire group of islands on the 14th of August, and for several succeed ing daye, the water in some places rising from 10 to 12 feet above usual high water mark, and do ing considerable damage. Earthquakes occurred in several islands, but not sufficient in force to have caused a tidal phenomenon. NEVOLVTION IN THE SOCIETY ISLANDS Late advises from Society Islands bring newts of art. Important political dbsturbanee there on the 23d of June. The King of Hnahine made a visit to Pomare on the 4th, to the Qusen of So ciety Islands,.at her capital, and when the king was about to return, the Governor of Tahiti ar rested him and compelled him to go on board of a French war steamer and sign a now treaty with the French Government, the exact purport of which is not known. The King was then set at liberty and returned to his island, where his sub jects revolted, took him prisoner and chose another King. A very serious political difficulty also occurred on Tahiti, between the Governor and members of the Protectoral Government, resulting in the dis missal of the chief officers of all the departments, who were ordered to be sent back to France by way 01 San Francisco, on the transport Euryolc. Several officers who had not been disnig2eli re signed their places, rather than continue in ser vice under the revolutionary regime of the pre sent Governor of Tahiti. Count Emil de La Rouciere is said to have been convicted of some criminal offence in Paris in 1865, and sentenced by the court to ten years im prisonment, but through the influence of a brother, who held a high position in the covern ment service, the Count received, instead of the punishment awarded by the criminal court, the appointment of Governor of Society Islands.

Hail a Million Dollars Stolen from the Government. [From the Detroit Tribune of Bept. 9th.l Our readers are all aware that during the past several weeks parties in Buffalo, New York. Washington and Chicago, have been arrested upon indictments found by the Grand Jury of the United States Court for this district, charg ing them with being implicated in a conspiracy by which they have defrauded the Gov ernment to a great amount. The full particulars of the alleged fraud, which, it is be lieved, will amount to over 5500,000, have not yet been fully published. We give below such facts as it is deemed prudent to present to the public at present, and detailing the manner in which the frauds have been committed in the Postoffice department for the past seven or eight years, amounting, it is believed, to nearly $500,000. The first intimation of the fraud was received by the Postmaster-General in February last, who was secretly informed that a fraud was being perpetrataln his department, and that his own agents were cOne.erned in it. He was given no sine as to what was the precise nature of it, and conferred with the Secretary of the Treas ury, requesting that the latter should entrust the matter to ono of his agents, fearing that, as had been reported to him, his own Vrere connected with it, whatever it might be. Mr. Fred. Carlyle, of this elti, a special agent of the Treasury Npartnlefit, iolnd .71 "Sksiiing , ton at the time, and to him the Secretary of the Treasury entrusted the duty of ferreting Ora the matter. He at once undertook the work, and in June reported the result of his investigations to the Postmaster General, to the effect that by a conspiracy, reaching through seven years, from 1861 to 1868, the Government had been swindled by :A Post-ollice contractor, Post-office agents and clerks in the Treasury Department, to the amount, in the aggregate, of several hundred thousand dollars. He was then directed by the Secretary of the Treasury to submit the facts to Hon. Alfred Russell, United States Dias Wet Attorney for this district, and instruct him to commence criminal proceedings against all parties implicated •in such frauds, in such district as Mr. Russell deemed proper. In accordance with these instructions the facts and evidence in the case wore submitted to the grand jury in session in this city in June last, and indictments were found against nine persons who have since been arrested on war rants issued from the United States Circuit Court of this Judicial Circuit. The investigations of Mr. Carlyle have de veloped the nature of the Post-ofilee frauds to be as .follows: First, on the part of the con tractor. The spresentation of accounts falsely representing the quantities of Post-office blanks, 'wrapping paper and twine furnished the Post office Department, and obtaining money thereon, by means of other representations in the nature of receipts fraudulently and cor ruptly procured. Second, as to the agents re eelpting for false quantities to the eontraotor, and presenting as vouchers for quantities dietal, bnted, the requisitions of • Postmasters which ' were either only partially, or novel. filled. Third, ; as to the clerks in the department passing 'or auditing •the accounts after contractors and agents, and receiving a consideration'therefor. The names of the parties appearing to have en tered into the conspiracy are as follows: C. F. S. Thomas, of Buffalo, contractor for furnishing post - office blanks, and from 1861 to 1868, having a contract for furnishing paper and twine; E. H. Howard and J. M. Johnson, partners of Thomas from January, 1867, and who. it is alleged, have enjoyed the benefits arising from the operations of Thomas; W. 0. Redden t blank agent of the Ist District at Washington; Beverly' Clark, blank agent of the 2d District of New York; and And. F.Let., blank agent of the Third District, at Buf fao, from 1860 to 1867; George W. Vining, of Chicago. who up to October. 1867, was a confi dential 'clerk of Thomas. William Towers, of Washington, chief clerk in the office of the Su perintendent of Public Printing in. the Treasury Department at Washington, who passed tho ac counts of Thomas for:blank paper and blanks; George L. Juverner, who from 1860 to 1868 was clerk in the Auditor's office of the Post-office De partment, and passed the accounts of both Tho mas and the blank agents. THE COURTS. QUARTER SESSIONS—Judge Allison.—Prison cases .were resumed this morning, both decks being very full of males and females ready for trial. Witnesses werealso in attend ance in_ sufficient forceto. enable the court to proceed to work Immediately. El len Riley pleaded gailty to a charge of stealing a quantity of wearing apparel. Ellen Crate was charged with stealing a quan tity of bed-clothing. The prosecntrix alleged that she rented a room to the accused with a stipulation that she was to keep the bed-clothing in good order by washing; that the defendant took the clothing away and was arrested. 'The defence,.which, was confined to the ac cused's statement, was that in accordance with her agreement she took the clothes away to wash and bad no intention of appropriating the arti cles to her own use. Verdict not gnillyt. George Schivider pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing cloth from a firm in whose employ he had been for eleven years. William Thomas, colored, was charged . with stealing four pounds of nutmegs. • He was an pjoyed by the prosecutor, and took the nutmegs. His excuse was that ho intended to pay for them, but they were discovered in his pocket before he had time to carry out his intention. Verdict guilty. Isaac Quinn, colored, was convicted of a charge of stealing a number of grain sacks. He was caught In the act of selling the sacks alter they had been missed. Jacob Lugaff was convicted of a charge of stealing a quantity of shoes from a store on Market street. William Smith and William Simpson were con victed of a charge of stealing a box of peaches. Edward Ball was charged with entering a dwelling with intent to kill. The occupant of the place was up at eleven o'clock at night, and hearing a reise in the store, he searched the premises and found the defendant as he was passing through the dining-room. When de tected Ball explained his presence by pretending to be in sealeh of another place. After the testi mony, the defendant withdrew his plea and pleaded guilty. George Reid was convicted of a charge of stealing a coat. He engaged boarding, and watching his opportunity,. walked off with the garment.

The absence of speculative move ments in merchandise can only be attributed to political causes. The business at the Stock Board this morning was small. Government loans were unchanged.

Large "short" sales were made on the probable-result of Maine election, but this event has been over discounted, and the aggregate short interest outstanding is so large that the activity of the bor rowing demand for coin causes loans to be made "flat," which means without interest to either borrower or lender. The increased activity of trade was reflected in the large demand for cus toms duties, the receipts at this port from Mon day to Saturday inclusive having been $3,172,964. while the shipments of specie were $320,526 and the Sub-Treasury disbursed $495,818 In coin in payment of interest on the public debt. The general trade of the city is moderately good for the season, although prices of late have shown a yielding rather than an advancing tendency, The statement of the associated banks of this city for the week ending yesterday proved more favorable than was generally expected, owing to the limited extent of the drain of currency west ward. All the items of the account show a de crease except.' the loans, which have increased $224,994.• the loss in depositsi being $2,365,271; in legal tender notes, $2,554,485 in specie, $664,- 836, and In the circulation, $80,493. There was an active market for government se curities at advancing prices during the greater part of this week, and it closed strong at the highest figures touched, thesindientions being favorable to continued buoyancy under the re viva' of public confidence in the national credit; for it is noticeable that savings banks, private Investors and others who held back from purchasing in July in consequence of the disturbance occasioned by the Democratic Con vention and the project for taxing the Interest on bonds are now coming forward as buyers, on the theory that these securities are cheap, and that It is more profitable to invest in them than to loan their money on call. , Moreover, they' are con siderably lower now, allowing for the accrued interest, than they were just antecedent to the period referred to, and the supply of bonds :hav ing stopped, except to a trifling extent in substitution for seven-thirty notes, while the de mend continues unabated and promises to in crease from year to year, they cannot fail to gradually advance in price with the growing de mand. The foreign markets are steadily absorb ing bonds, and the five-twenties of 1862 held abroad are being exchanged for the later issues for the sake of the difference in price between them, the result of which will be a closer ap proximation in price of the old and the new bonds. [From the New York World of Today.] Sm-r. 12.—The Government bond market was very strong throughout the day in the new bonds, which were higher at the close, but quiet and steady in the old bonds. The continued low rates for money and the distrust among banks and money-lenders In regard to the inflated and cliqued railway shares as collaterals, are disposing capitalists and bank managers to invest their surplus funds in the purchase of the new bonds, as the safest and most profitable employment for them. The foreign exchange market Is quiet as usual after the sailing of the packet. There are no bond bills on the market, and few commercial. Prime bankers'. sixty days sterling, aro 10:1 to 109%.

The Chicago Journal of Saturday contains the following account of the loss of the propeller Hippocampus, which• was capsized in Lake Michigan: I was in command of the steamer Hippocam pus Monday night last. She left St. Joseph at 11 in the evening. Had on hoard 7,001 packages of peaches. The vessel commenced to roll badly about 1 o'clock, but nothing extraordinary occurred until about half-past 2 o'clock. At this time I went to the engine room and the fire hold to see if there was any water in her, but found none. I then went with the wheelsman, Charles Morrison, down forward, below decks, into the fore peak, to see if there was water there, but found none. Came on deck and find she was making still heavier rolls, the wind Increasing. I remarked to the wheelsman, "We must lighten her of her cargo." Com ing on deck I told the wheelemen to summon the crew and throw the peaches from the promenade deck. I did this in a loud tone of voice. This command was beard by the passengers, who then rushed on deck in great confusion. The steamer was now settling rapidly, and before any freight was thrown overboard the water commenced pouring into the after gangway, and through the engine room into the hold: at the same time the vessel went over on her port side, and went down in less than two minutes. The passengers had retired, but sprang from their berths and ran out on the weather side of the cabin, on hearing my command to throw the freight overboard. Much confusion ensued. I cried out "Clear away the life-boat." Be ing convinced shb was going over, and seeing that nothing further could be done, I came from the pilot house and started for ward to get hold of a hatch, but the boat had careened so far that I slid into the water and got hold of the rigging of the mast and floated along, retaining my hold until I reached the cross trees of the mast. To prevent being en tangled in thegear, and to avoid the suction of the sinking vessel, I swam to a floating desk and tried to buoy myself up with that. I was soon hailed by the wheelsman, Morrison. I went to him and got on his raft, consisting of one aide of the cabin. Passengers and crew all around in debris, all.nrying for help, and calling to a Bagg i ng schooner—l think the Humbolt—which was, perhaps, half a mile away. A few of the passengers clung to floating arti cles and were picked up and saved. The larger number were lost. The following Is the list of those saved: Passeng rs—H. Bailey, St. Joseph ; E. N.
