The "Great Earthquake in South
America.
'One r.f the most terrible and horrifying
inoeos bf intelligence, says the New Or?
leans Crescent, which it h:ts ever been our
duty as journalists to record is that con?
tained in the recent news from South
America, imagination stands aghast at
t1 ?"? ?xtont und-swiftness of tho dreadful
cakmily which lias befallen tho people of*
\\.q States of Peru and Ecuador?a ealam
jt v uuoqualled by one of its kind since the
groat earthquake at Lisbon, in 1S75, when
sixty thousand persons woro believed to
have perished in the short space of six
minutes. The next terrible disaster of
.the hind occurred in 5812 at CarracasJ
which city, together with 12,000 of its in?
habitants,- wa3 entirely destroyed. In
1857. an earthquake in the kingdom of
Kaples destroyed a large number of lives,
variously estimated at from 22,000 to 40,
000. A work pnblishedin 1S5S compiles
n-cataloguo of nearly 0,000 earthquakes,
of which the most disastrous was ono in
, ;'year 52G, at Antioch in Syria, when ac?
cording to Gibbon, 250,000 persons are
said, to have perished.
Tho following interesting details and
incidents of the great calamity in Peru
and Ecuador is from the correspondence
' of the New York Times, dated Lima in
Pern, August 22d, 1868:
In a previous letter I gave a hurried
account of the severe shock of an earth
: quake and .the coming in of the sea at
Oallao, as well as the damage to the ships
lying in Callao Bay. By the steamer from
Yalparaisoand intermediate points, which
arrived here the 20th, we have the most
fearful and appalling accounts of this
same earthquake, proving it to bo by far
" the moat terrible and destructive of any
that has over visited Peru. Over twen
* ty-thrce cities? and villages are. destro}-ed,
.Bomo thirt}T silver and other mineral mines,
the-ships greatly damaged lying at the
Chincha Islands, some ten houses shaken
down there, and all accounts go to show
that there Las never been so fatal an
earthquake in Peru, not even one that de?
stroyed old Callao in 1746. This one has
" marked its way by death and destruction
all up-and down the entire coast. But
for the high point of Corrillas and the im?
mense mountain and inlaud of San Loren?
zo, which formed an admirable breakwa?
ter, Callao, and possibly Lima, would
been have again submerged. To add to
the general horror and freight of the
earthquake- tho very day the; steamer
sailed, (the 14th.) and the night immcdi
' ntely following the coming in of the sea,
there was a most tearful fire, which burst
-out in a restaurant in tho main street of
Callao, and so sudden was the spread of
the flames, and so violent the wind which
carried it along, that about fifty of the
principal stores and offices, the Club?
house, and.all the buildings overhead,
used as dwelling houses, with a million
and a half worth of property, were de
stroyed. Many families lost everything,
and but for the timely arrival of two fire
? engines from Lima, the whole street, with
all tlie principal stores in the place, would
!ravo fallen an easy prey to the flames. A
few large stores, crockery, hardware, <?c,
&i . ?iirc assured, but (as a fire is sol lorn
known here) nearly all the sufferers lost
everything the}- possessed in llie world.
S3veral Peruvian families who owned
. stores, and lived entirely from the month?
ly, rents of the buildings. Ios<. all their in?
come when these stores were burned, as
they wero not insured. Tho street is
burned through quite to the water's edge,
and presents a desolate appearance. But
the earthquake down the coast deserves
a-full description, though no pen can por?
tray its horrors and the devastation it has
eansed.
From the correspondent of El National.
the leading paper in Lima, and himself
au eye witness of most of the had inc i?
dents connected with the earthquake, I
have 'learned the particulars. And I am
also indebted to Mr. Williams, Paymaster
of the South Pacific Squadron, for a full
and-complete account of the terrible ruin
and ravages that have destroyed the cities
and towns of tho coast. Mr. William?
came up on the steamer of the 20th for
aid and assistance, and to-day the Pow
hatan, as well as the Peruvian and French
_ steamers, have gone with money, pro?
visions, and canvas for tents, to the suf?
ferers. Mr. Williams, Captain Doty, and
three others are all the survivors of the
ill-fated Fredonia?about fifty were lost.
-I shall condenso the particulars as much
- as possible. All the entire south of Peru
is destroyed. Iquique, noted for its ex
t'Misjve saltpetre works, is one complete
mass of ruins. It is estimated that, with
its fine custom house over 54,000,000 arc
. lost. Arica, lea, and Pisaguaare in ruins,
and an immense volcano at lea,-which
has not broken out for over thirty years,
lias been opened anew, and is pourin" its
fire lava and hot stones down into' the
sea. An imroenso tidal wave, similar to
that at St. Thomas, and fully sixty feet
in height, rolled in at Arica and Islay,
and, as it carried everything before it, the
American gunboat Wateree was carried
b'y it op into the town, and left imbedded
in the mud, high and dry, full a hundred
and fifty, feet on the shore. Tiie Peruvian
man of war A\merica was also carried in
shore by tho same wave, and lies broken
up and useless beside the Wateree. Only
?no maiv- on- board the Wateree was
killed, as they had battered down the
hatches, lashed the guns, and put out
life lines. But the stor.cship Fredonia
was not so fortunate, for as the same
wave struck her, sho rolled over, rtnd all
on board were lost. There is not a plank
left of her. Mr. and Mi*. Dyci, he tho
first executive officer, were on hoard, and
were instantly killed. Mr. Johnston,
first executive officer of the Wateree, was
also on shore at Arica with his estimable
wife, and when the earthquake began to
shake down tho houses, 'they, with the
rest of tho affrighted inhabitants, ran for
safety into the middle of the street, and
Uo ihe.y wore fleeing to a place of greater
security Mr. Jobsten took his with in bis
arms to hasten her steps; but at that]
moment a flying beam from a balcony I
struck her on tho back of her neck,
breaking licr neck instantly, mid she died
in ft moment. These uro some of the
heart-rending casualties that occurred.
In Arica over $4,000,000 of goods arc de?
stroyed, and over $100,000 is lost in tho
Custom house. All the ships lying at
Arica wcro lost; on the Peruvian gun?
boats, four commanders, thirty officers,
and fifty seamen. Arequipa the second
city in Peru and containing from 80,000
to*l00,000 inhabitants, is one mass of
ruins. Its stone edifices, constructed of
solid materials, to resist the shocks of
earthquakes," stood firm daring the first
shock, but subsequently were crumbled
down; and although many of the inhabi- j
tan-s escaped by running to the moun?
tains, yet every building fell. The prison?
ers in the penitentiary and those in the
hospitals at Arequipa perished in the
ruins. The whole ciiy is destroyed. Tho
port of Chaia, one hundred and eereuty
miics to the north, had all its buildings
shaken down ; but as the houses fell, the
people saved themselves by running to
the high ground. Not only did the
buildings fail, but the sea in man}- places
came in, destroying as many as the earth?
quake. The village of Tarnbo was inun?
dated, completely washed oat, and five
hundred persons drowned. The villages
of Tiabaya, Yitor, Mallendo, Mejia, and
all the other small towns within the range
of two hundred miles were all inundated
and destroyed, or the houses shaken to
dust and ruin. In many places the earth
opened, and all the level land was sub
merccd by the sea. The valuable silver
mines, twenty in number, in the interior
were complete!}' sunk, the solid earth
opening, and huge waterspouts coming
up. In Ilo the earth opened, and as the
houses sunk down a solid column of water
came up lull fificon feet in height. In
Tacua over fifty houses were shaken
down at the first shock. In Moqucqua
over ono hundred and fifty persons were
found buried among the ruins. Nor was
the earthquake confined to the southern
coast. Castna,a villago lo the north, lies
submerged under four feet ol water, and
many women and childen were drowned
who had taken refuge in boats. Cobija
suffered slightly. As tho houses, which
arc built at a height of fifty feet above the
sea, tottered and tumbled over the bluff
into the sea, the people ran for safely
back to tho high hills, and so escaped.
Locumbo, also to the north, is one com?
plete ruin. Biit the most horrible calam?
ity befel the two cities of Pufib and Cerro
D'Pasco?the former containing 40.000
inhabitants. These cities are built near
and over the silver mines, and it seems
that the very ground on which they stood
was one hollow cavern. These caves
opened at one wide chasm, and swallowed
up the citie3 and the ill-fated population
at one deep and awful opening. Tbc}- lit?
erall}7 fell down into this immense hollow.
A number of hoi semen rode in Lima, and
reported the catastrophe, and as the mines
themselves are entirely destroyed, we
shall probabh' hearot other towns being
destroyed. Cuzco has not " one stone
left standing upon another," and most of
its population were killed. In addition
to the list of horrors, a dreadful fire broke
out at Guayaquail, and burned down thir?
ty houses and stores?all the principal
buildings; so what the earthquake spared
the fire hits devoured. It is a singular
fact that the first shock of the earthquake
was felt all over Pern at 5 P. M.;, Thurs
' day, the 13 th, and that there were three
shocks, lasting aboutscven minutes in .oil.
The commotion caused by the sea at Oal
lao was the (lying out of this terrible
earthquake. Thore can bo no adequate
description of the loss of property, ami of
the total destruction that it has created.
Already the people in Lima, Callao, and
other places, are collecting money for the
surviving sufferers. Mr. Harry Meigs.
the popular railroad contractor, although
his road has beon in some places totally
destroyed, has generously given 50,000
soles (nearly S75,000) t? the suffering peo?
ple whose homes are destroyed, and be
has given a draft for S200.O?0 more, if it
is necessary, to use it among those left
desolate and homeless. Mr. Caldron, the
guano contractor at tho Chincha islands,
has also given 50,000 soles. This is a no?
ble example, worthy of imitation. The
ravages ol this earthquake,, and I he rain
it has scattered far and wide, is the one
universal theme. Some American families
are thinking of returning to the United
States, having experienced enough of the
sensation of an earthquake. Many for?
eigners talking of leaving, and a general
feeling of uneasiness and unquiet is preva?
lent everywhere.
Pennsylvania.
The great fields of political contest lo
which the people are now looking within
tense interest are Pennsylvania and Ohio.
Both parties are struggling with vigor and
unwonted determination to secure a polit?
ical triumph in each in the October elec?
tions, as bearing most directly and effec?
tually ou the approaching Presidential
election. That the result will have some
effect on that election, we cannot deny ;
but not necessarily; for those States might
give the Radicals a triumph in the Octo- j
ber elections?which, however, we do not
believe?and yet go for Seymour and
Blair in the Isovember election. There
are, frequently, local issues and State
questions in State elections which may
produce results contrary to those where
strict party lines arc drawn and strict
party issues presented, as in the case of a
Congressional or Presidential election.?
The New York Word! thus alludes to one
of the great States named :
rENXSYI.VAXIA.
To this State the eyes of the country
are now turned. Each party claims it for
itself, and both are struggling desperately
to make good its claim. Pennsylvania,
once a Democratic State, for many years
has been carried by the licpublicaus by
large majorities. Last year the Demo?
crats made a vigorous fight under the
guidance of a most efficient Executive
Committee. The result was the election
of the Democratic candidate for Justice of
the Supreme Court by 927 majority, the
total vote of the State being 02.795 less
than that of tho previous year. Xow
comes the question, which party will se?
cure next month a majority of these near?
ly seventy thousand'votes? But there
arc other questions to be decided by the
canvass which are of more importance
than the choice of State officers; they arc
the election of representatives iu Congress I
and a State Legislature, which latter is to
choose a United States Senator in place of
Hon. Charles R. Buckalew, whose term
of ofricc will expire on the 4th of March
next. Jn the present House of Represen?
tatives the Pennsylvania delegation is po?
litically divided thus: Democrats, 6;
Radicals, IS. At the election last year
the Democrats carried all the districts
which they carried in 18G0 and four more,
besides pressing the Radicals so closely in
another district (the Tenth) that the re?
sult was a tic vote. They have, therefore,
reasonable grounds for expecting to elect
ten and perhaps eleven of their candidates
for Congressmen, and thus secure a more
honest representation on the floor of the
House of Representatives than it has had
in several years.
All the nifennation that has reached us
concerning the progress of the campaign
in this State is full of encouragement.?
The Democrats have been and are work?
ing with commendable vigor and discre?
tion. Their forces arc well officered and
thoroughly drilled ; and unless some un?
expected event occurs during the next
three and a half weeks, they will march
over the field on the 13th of October, and
at night-fall rejoice with their comrades'
in other Stales over the Redemption of
the Keystone State and the consequent
triumph of the entire Democratic party in
November.
Eadical Reconstruction on its
Last Legs.
Our readers will have noticed that in
most of the speeches of prominent South?
ern leaders, recently delivered, the colored
voter has formed a theme of more than
mere passing interest. To-day we add to
the number, extracts from a speech deliv?
ered by a distinguished representative off
" Young South,''General James B. Gor?
don, of Georgia, and from a letter on the
subject written upon the more mature
judgment of Mr. James 15. Campbell, of
South Carolina. These appeals and warn?
ings cannot he without their cfTect upon the
colored population of the South, and that
they are destined to produce a revolution 1
in the minds of the colored voters, in fa?
vor of their former masters, seems to be
as clear as the lact that the influence of
the Northern adventurers over tlie freed
men is fast waning. There is nothing at
all extraordinal)' in this. The untutored
negroes have discovored that the promises
of their newly-found Northern friends
arc shams and delusions, and their natural
instinct leads them to distrust all who
have once deceived them. In no instance
have tTie pledges of their radical allies
been carried out. At the outset they
promised them forty acres of land and a
?pair of mules, if they would vote the rad?
ical ticket. They obeyed instructions, but
have never seen land or mules.
They were assured that they should
possess the confiscated houses and lands
of the rebel leaders. This the radicals
failed to carry out from fear of the indig?
nation the atrocity of the act would cre?
ate throughout the North. They were
told that they should hold seals in Con?
gress, in the State Legislatures and in the
City Councils, and, in all rcspec's, enjoy
every civil right and prerogative possessed
by the white man. hi all these promises
they have been deceived and cheated.
They have neither lands nor mules; they
possess no confiscated plantations; they
hold no seats in Congress, and only a few
days ago a batch of their colored brethren
were expelled from a Southern Legisla?
ture by the vote of nearly every white
radical in it. The sensible portion of the
Southern colored population begin to re?
alize that those Northern adventurers
who have located among them have no
lands to give ; while, on the other haiid^
I hey sea that their late masters have, and
thai those masters are disposed to treat
them with kindness and with a propel
consideration of their newly enfranchised
condition. Hence, it is no wonder that
the Southern colored voter is in a political
position which, with very little adroit?
ness, can be turned to the advantage of
their old masters, leaving the treacherous
carpet-baggers to their fate.
Xow, then, comes the opportunity of
the Southern leaders. "With the assistance
of the votes of the colored population,
the)' can secure ascendancy in nearly eve?
ry one of the Southern States; and, that
accomplished, down goes radical recon?
struction, of its ov*n volition, and up goes
the era of Southern restoration. There?
fore is it, that leaders like Wade Hamp?
ton, Forrest, Toombs, Henry A. Wise, A.
Jl. Stephens, General Gordon, Judge
Campbell and hundreds of others, distin?
guished for their political influence in the
South, arc palavering with the negro vo?
ter, joining with him in barbacues, sitting
on the same platform with him, and show?
ing him, as clear as noonday, on which
side his bread is buttered.?iV. Y. Herald.
How a Peck, of Cokn Mkal is
Taxed.?The Gallipolis Dispatch, in an?
swer to tho charge that because a man is
poor ho cannot be taxed, thus shows how
even a peck of meal, purchased by a poor
man to aid in feeding his family of little
children, is taxed, to aid in paying the
interest on tho untaxed bonds. Says the
Dispatch:
"The corn from whitfh that peck of
meal was made raised on taxed land,
plowed by a laxed plow, drawn by taxed
horses hitched with taxed gen?. It was
hoed with a taxed hoe, cultivated with
laxed implements, gathered with a taxed
wagon drawn with taxed horses, thrown
into a taxed crib, shelled on a taxed ma?
chine, measured in a taxed measure, taken
in a taxed sack and ground < n a taxed
mill, sieved with a taxed sieve, mixed in
a taxed pan, stirred with a taxed spoon,
sailed with taxed salt, put into a taxed
bake pan. baked in a taxed stove,'laid out
on a taxed plate, cut with a taxed knife,
and lastly eaten by a pretty heavily taxed
man."
