At the Chincha Islands the shaking of the earth was such that the people became seasick. Several suoc.h allocks were Celt on the islands daring the =n r Atsbouttudf-Past - ninel.' 7 llL -- a - horri• noise was heard, as if heavy wagons were rush ing th r ough the streets, and it was noticed that the sea hid risen to an immense height along the mole, washing all the buildings along the shore. The Lighter Company have lost most. 111 the vessels In port met with more or less damage.. A man, his wife and their daughter were carried out to sea, bat the two former were cast ashore again uninjured.

Leader of Saturday.] A trightful accident"eeurred on Thursday af ternoon on the Cleveland - and Pittsburgh Rail road, at a place called Industry. The regular passenger train, consisting of three passenger coaches and the usual express and baggage cars, left Pittsburgh at 2 o'clock P. M. The cars were, moderately tilled with paissengers, there being probably a hundred on the train.- At the point above mentioned, While running at the ordinary rate of speed, s drove,of cattle started across the track in front of WI engine. Evdry itossible effort was made to atop the train, but before this could be aceompliehed the - engine, plunged into the animals, throwing one to the left, another to the right, and a third . directly ahead Upon the track. At the side of the track is an embankment about fifteen feet in height. The engine leaped from the rails, became Lfilmonneeted , from the train, and with a clear bourid leaded at the bot tom of the bank, "right side, up with care." the engineer and fueman being brit slightly bruised. The tender turned completely around, and the express car was dashed against it with fearful violence, crushing in the whole side of the car. The , express messenger was slightly braised, and s passenger who happened to, be smoking in the car was rendered insesible from a blow on the head. He was afterward restored to consciousness and was fettind not to be danger ously injured. All the coaches rolled to the bottom of the em bankment, tumbling their occupants from side to side in the most promiscuous manner imagina ble. Wondrous to relate none were killed,and is thought none were injured. A large number, however, received ugly cuts and braises, and very few escaped unharmed. Our informant, G. F. Thomas, Esq.,.of New York, editor of Ap pleton's Rpilway Glade, was in the rear car and was one of the fortunate few who escaped with out injury. The scene at the wreck was one of wildest terror and confusion.. Several ladies re ceived very severe wounds, but we were unable to learn any names. The night train from this city, returned from the wreck with a portion of the passengers, reaching this city at half-past two o'clock, Friday morning. The track was torn up for a considerable distance. VOA :4 II 0V.011 , 10 Dia a Ikffei $lll Several Men Fatally Injured. [From the Cincinnati Chi onic[c of the 18th Just] This morning at a quarter before eight o'clock a fearful accident happened at the new gas tank now in process of erection on Columbia street. The contractors are laboring energetically to have the gasometer ready for this winter's use, and to accomplish this, have put on an additional force of workmen. The whole immense apparatus is rapidly approaching completion; the well has been walled up; more of the pillars erected; the tank, sixty feet in diameter and thirty in depth, is now being finished—the sides of five-eighths inch iron having been bolted on, and the heavy iron rafters or joist of the top or roof were being piacefi In position when the accident occurred. These beams are of immense weight,requiring the combined strength of the whole force of fourteen men to place one in position. While attempt ing to raise one of these ratters this morning, the scaffolding on which the men were standing gave way and precipitated the whole party, together with a section of the iron roof, a distance of 20 feet to the bottom of the tank, injuring all more or lees; and crushing two terribly, and probably fatally. Eight men were seriously injured, some of them fatally. Fr, , V; ttt, Tbey Attend a Public fleeting to Vote— The Eight olbuntrage Denied Mem. A very exciting meeting was held at Mount Vernon, Westchester county, New York, on Sat urday evening on the occasion of several female tax-payers claiming the right to vote on appro priations recommended by the Board of Trustees for contemplated improvements as regards the condition of roads, sidewalks, and other pur poses set forth in the call. W. H. Pemberton, Eeq., President of the Board of Trustees, was called to the chair, and first submitted for action of the meeting the proposition to raise e 3,000 by tax for highway purposes. At this stagtof the proceedings, Mr. R. J. Law stated that he held in his hand a list of the names 01 one hundred women,Droperty owners and tax pay- era in the village, who claimed the right to have a voice in the question of expending money for public purposes. Mr. Quackenbush quoted from the village charter and State laws on the question of suffrage, to show that women wore not qualified to vote. The resolution in fa vor of raising $3,000 by tax for highway pur poses was then voted upon, the names of the male tax-payers beinalled upon to vote in the matter, and resulted In 56 votes being recorded for the resolution and 47 against it. The annourcement was received with great applause. During the discussion of a proposition to appro priate $1,500 to meet the deficit caused by the alleged deftdeatlon of a tax-collector of the vil lage, Mrs. Macdonald here rose and remarked that Nat Harriet Seaver, a heavy property owneriti the village, had last entered the room, • An d ligr - hquilf'she desired to say a few words; but 1116 - KtMaeut intimated that, as there was a questfort before the meeting, she Was out of order. The VW& sustained the objection, and thus disposed of the matter for the present. A resolution to raise $75 for rent of Truck Rouse was adopted. Another effort was here made In behalf of the female property owners, as regards their right to vote on appropriations;_ wheren_pon Ldlip Lucas, Jr., remarked that' Mr._ Ferguson had rote°, ono now his •wife desired to vote on the same questions. The Chairman Anted that he bad looked Into the matter, Wand quoted several sections of the village charter. and State laws on the subject, Which clearly defined who Were and who were not legal voters; and he therefore de cided that the women, although property owners and tax-payers, were not entitled to vow at that meeting. The decision against the women was hailed with applause by almost the entire array of masculine voters present. Mr. Wingate here - appealed from the deci sion of the chair in behalf of four women, whoni ,he claimed to repreSent as their attorney. Several • citizens protested against Mr. Wingate's Interference, contending that he was neither a tax-payer nor resident the village , and cries of "put him ont," "pit him ink' resounded from all parts of the crowded hall. Mr. G. W. Barnes made a very conciliatory speech, contending that the;women had come there in a respectful manner, with the conviction that they had a right to representa tion in meetings where the expenditure of their • • • WinioltEd;_ihAtleellog diflidentirta '- peering conspicuously before the meeting they had deptted Mr. Wingate to speak for them. All they desired was that the meeting should say whether they were entitled to vote or not, so that In case of a decision against them they might take the necessary measures to bring the matter before the proper authorities. P. S. McClellan also made a few remarks complimentary to the women, and the respect which ahould be shown them; but, at the same time, con sideredthey were not entitled to exercise the right of suffrage under the laws as they now stand. Mrs. Macdonald stated that the Rev. J. IL Shepherd had been in the habit of voting at these meetings, although he owned no property, but merelyacted as a:trustee for his son, while women present, owning property to the amount of $50,000, were denied the privilege. The Chair, In reply, stated that Mr. Shepherd was not en titled to vote, and he had not done so at this meetingßesolutions in favor of raising $lOO for counsel 'fees, also $2OO for restraining cattle, *re adopted,after which the meeting adjourned.

THE NINTH WAnD MANDAMUS CABS.—This morning in the case of the writ of mandamus directed to the' City Commissioners to show cause why they should not tune notice of the place of holding the extra assessment in the Ninth Ward, as designated by the Asseuers, a return wag made by the Commissioners before Judge Ailloon.

B. Berner, but on the 30th of July Mr. - Isaac J. Law less. one of the assessors, sent a communication to the City Commissioner. requesting them to consider revoked the notice of the 22d, as ho had signed it without Knowl edge of its purport or object. The City Commissionera urged that having designated the place, they were Clot required to recognize the notice. The return also sets forth that at the house of Mr. Beitler the extra assessment must be made in a public barroom. while at Mr. :McDonough's a private room on the first floor can be secured. There was an argument in regard to the force of the notice of the 22d of July. the counsel asking the man damus insisting that there was no power 'in Mr. Lawless to revoke his consent Besides this the Commis sioners had no right to designate a place until the time had expired in which the Assessors have to fix the place. That time expired the 30th of July, and the Commis. stoners had no right before then to designate the place for the extra assessment for the Ninth Ward. . . . On behalf of the Comminfonere it was contended that the notice referred to was not recognized by the act of Am eembly, and In addition to this there could be no doubt but that there was a disagreement between the Ailment'. and In that me the Commlealonere have the right to do eignate.l Judge Ailleon said that at the time the Commissioners designated. apiece. there was no evidence before them that the Aeeeeeore Imd not agreed. Before they could deeienate it was their duty to send to the assessors and ask them to fax thepiace. The mandamus was allowed, ordering the Commis. stoners to give notice of 'he place designated by the as. sespors—D. B. Beitler'a—Market street, QUARTER BramNe.—Judge jury for the second period of the Term appeared this morning.
