The severest: shock ecrr felt %Mee the great earthquake of the yetis 1832, when Valparaiso was almost totally destroyed, has created a pan. c not equalled by acy former event. A severe trembling of the earth of fifteen *cc* and,' duration, prolonged less violent to two minutes has in so short a time destroyed sever. al hundred dwellings. The motion came from the South, and direct ed its course to the North, notwithstanding some of the Northern ports of the country. as Copia `po, Coquimbo, and Cobija, have only felt very alight symptoms of the, ahock. The captain of a vezsel from the South reports to have felt a severeaommetion in the sea, forty miles off San Antonio. The temperature during the earthquake was hot and opressive, but no alteration took place in the thermorketer, which stood G 2.

In those parts, however, spreading along the beach, the Alnuuedrael, Calle Neese, And others, where the ground is loose and sandy, considera ble damage has been done, anal about two hun dred heaves are unfit for habitation. More than two hundred families have been obliged to pass the first day. and night in the street, partly from fear of renewed shocks, partly from the danger attending the stay in their houses. In the course of the following day, tents and wooden houses were erected in the Plaza de Victoria for the houseless. The captains of sea. eels of all nations in the port placed them at the disposal of all who wanted a refuge, either from necessity or fear, and have since then (receiv ed the thanks of the Government for their hos pitaliiy. Much damage has been dune to stores where liquids, glassware, and other breakable materi als are kept. We are happy to say not a single life has beenjlost, nor can we hear of a severe fracture. • Ott the 4th inst., at 12 r. s., n heavy' rain set in which hazed uninterruptedly for twelve hours, which cooled the atmosphere considerably, but destroyed still more property, pouring into the roofless houses, and compelling those who bad taken. refuge in the plaza and were living in tents to seek shelter. The loss generally estimated, including the damage done to buildings:at ono , million of dollars. The principal public buildings which have suf fered are the Adearia, the churches Merced and Martz, the cartel of the national guard, -the Lie:s pinal, and the Temple of St. Domingo. Commissieners have been appointed to exam ine the houses; and to condemn those which are , in an Unsound condition. _ Dusiness has only been iutem4ted for one day, the Custom Houses having been closed by order of theqntendente. Casa Bianca, as well as Quillota, have collar ed severely, and in some parts in the latter pia. ass, as well as in the capital, the ground has opened and thrown up a quantity of hot water. The damage done in Santiago is similar to that in Valparaiso, with the exception that, there being a larger number of public buildings in the , capital, the pecuniary loss most he severer.

I mentioned in ray last the fact of a serious quarrel here between a patrol of the French and patrol of the Roman troops. Asthe event oc curred only the ensiling previous to my date, 1 did not venture to report the details from the rumors then flying through the city. For wont of a newspaper, in the proper sense of the term (with its corps of reporters, and an editor in clined to publish the whole truth,) en alarming event of this kind takes fifty different aspen here in Route in the course of a day's talk. The facts of the case appear to be as follows .—The French celebrated the anniversary of the procla mation of the Republic on the fourth of May, the Sabbath, with a'general review, and a great deal of cannon firing, continningtbe display un til aiming. This woe felt by the Romans gene. ally to be excessively insulting. If they could make such jubilee over their own republic, why did they come here to destroy the Roman 'repot, lic; And as guardians of the Pope, and of the pertee of the city, why need they celebrate a political event, whose consequences were disae thous fur him, and the reminiscences of which only serve to inflame the passions of the people' However this is but a small absurdity in a se ries of inconsistencies destined to terminate, it is to be feared, in still greater disasters for France. Of codzse, there was great irritation . throughout the city at this republican jubilee of I the French, and the French General might have foreseen eomotrouble from it, The quarrel referred to originated in the abu sive conduct of come French eoldiem. rho op- I preached a crowd of Romans listening to a street preacher, arid drew all attention to themselves by ringing vice la republique, ciee la liberty, and by tanning some Roman soldiers in the crowd with the name of soldate du I've.* The French went on their way to be farther stirred up in fa vor of liberty; and, the sermon over, these so/data du Papi followed the Frenchman to ask some explanation, which only led to further insults.— Patrols were sent, both of French and German guards, to quell the dieturbrince; them instead of quelling took part in it. Seven Roman col dims fell upon a French corporal end two of his men and killed them, and one Frenchmen was pushed into the river and drowned. A battal ion of French was then sent to restore order In that quarter of the city, (a section of therms. tevere where the populace is the most violent.) A poor tailor, running away from the scene of the quarrel to avoid, being :caught within • the guarded line, was thrust -through the body by one of the French bayonets. The reeve Roman soldiers and about twenty-five of the people were arrested and dragged out of the houses where I they had taken refuge. ' Thus ended the fete of the French republican ' constitution in Rome. The next - evening one of the French:guard in'that quarter was assmsinu ted; on Thursday another was wounded, and on Saturday another killed, and many others 'are probably destined to fall under the knives of that savage populace. The French General, Gimeatt, expressed his intention to try these sev en Roman soldiers with the utmost severity.-- One of them it is now known is to be allot, nisl"l others of them may be. They are all in prison at Castle St. Angelo. The General also gave orders for the immediate removal from the city of two battalions of the Roman troops. Prince Orsini, the Minister of War, remonstrated ; but., General Gimean insisted that he was master of Rome, that the Roman troops must obey his or ders, and that he could not admit of interference of this kind from the Minister of War. The Fence Orsini then sent in his resignation to the ' Government. The affair becomes more serious every day, and the Pupal Government are much , concerned as to what may be the consequent or.l der from Paris. Gen. Gimean has also given or ders to the French troops to use their side arms in any case oft smolt from the people, upon pain of punishment if they neglect to do so. The troops have also received minute instructions, since this event, as to the orders to be given in • case of an insurrection, which is considered ye- I ry possible in the Tmstevere. The Romans have joined the Lombards in the anti-cigar demonstration. No smoker is now to be seen in the streets, except among foreigner' and the police. In Lombardy this is an attack upon the government revenue; but here it is to. tended to show the sympathy of the people for the general cause of Italy. The government can lose nothing—only Torlonia, who has the monop oly of tobacco in the state. This demonstration will probably continue only ,a few weeks, just long enough to show the government where the. sympathies of the people lie. Thellmnd Duke of Tuscany has lately made strife to the Ring of Naples and the Pope, to con fer as to the practicability of eubstitritiug Nea politan for French and Austrian troops in Cen tralltaly. The poor man still imagines himself somebody, though as putty in the hands of the priests, and perfectly sold to Austria.

After a few weeks, they mean to here two more fires going, and make about' irty tonsper week. The winter has been unfavorable for bu siness owing to the mild weather and the great quantity of snow. Contrary to their expecta tions an they hese gone deeper into the iron beds cr ledges, the iron has been no less easily quarried and tho quality bee improved, and both se to quantity and ganlity this deposite of iron is truly astonishing. Mr. Burt has completed his survey of a route for a plank or rail road from the iron mountain to the lake, and finds it much more favorable than he anticipated.

The.lilarquette Iron Company have ready for shipment about 120 tons of blooms, and a large stock of materials on band. They have had four fires going till lately, when they stopped work to reset their engine-boiler, and to make some other improvements.

Their precise lo cations and their names we will snake known to our readers hereafter.
