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.

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.

POST OFFICE FRAUDS.
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.

premises and found the defendant as he was

mony, the defendant withdrew his plea and
pleaded guilty.

ral aspect of the money market has varied, and
"call loans" continue to be negotiated at 4;6(45
per cent. on Government Bonds, and 5®6 per
cent. on mixed securities, with exceptional trans
actions as low as 4 per cent. Trade Is improv
ing; Western and Southern buyers are making
their appearance in large numbers. and the abun
dance and cheapness must give a decided impulse
to business. The absence of speculative move
ments in merchandise can only be attributed to
political causes.

market confirms active, but the fluctuations
during the past week were limited to 134 per
cent, namely, from 14331 to 145, with the closing
transactions on - 'Satnrday at 144®144X. 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,

Official Report o the. Loss .of the
Wat ee.
[Special Despatch to the Phila • • • hie Rvenhig Bulletin.l
Wastruirormq, Sept. 14.---Master 0. White ar
rived at the Navy Department to-day, bearing
despatches from Commander Gilliss, of the 11. 13.
steamer Wateree, carried ashore on the thirteenth
of August by the great tidal wave at erica; on
the coast of Peru. Commander Gilliss writes on

paymaster, surgeon and two of the crew, are also
given.
Mr. White gives a vivid description of scenes
and Incidents witnessed by him.
A despatch was also received from Rear-Admi

ron, at Callao. He was about leaving for Arica
with the Powhattan, and had offered his services

TINE LOSS OF THE HIPPOCAMILEUS.
Statement of Her Commander.
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.
Hatch, St. Joseph; T. Trimble, Pipestone; G. A.
