FOREIGN NOTES. - -1. - THE EARTHQUAKE IN SOUTH AMERICA. An official report of the earthquake in South America has been received by the Admiralty from the com manding officer at Callao. At Iquique, a town which has largely incr 'ased in population and importance of late years, the earthquake was not preceded by any of those signs which are generally the forerunners of great convulsions. 1, short rumbling sound, however, was heard before the inhabitants got into the streets, mad bele, uueretore, comparatively few lives were lost. The sea was unusually high, and about 150 people were swept off by the tide. The loss of property here was over half a million. The sea did similar damage at Mix illon es. Arica was utterly destroyed; even some two-storied houses which were left standing were so cracked and shaken as to be uninhabitable. The destruction in the bay equalled that on the land ; the six vessels that were at anchor were all lost. A Peruvian corvette was lost, all hands being killed or wounded. The officers and crew of a United States gunboat took every precaution against the enormous earthquake waves, but the • vessel was carried over the beach and left amongst some sandhills four hundred yards from the water. She was landed perfectly upright, without a scratch, and with out a man lost. The American Government have deter mined to sell her. The vice-consul at Arica thus describes the catastrophe at that place. "We passed up the centre of the street ; everything in ruins, numbers of dead, and the wounded lying under the walls shrieking for assistance. Blinded with dust, and scarcely able to breathe from the sulphur in the air, we stopped at the first rising ground. The whole town, with the exception of a few of . the second-st-dried houses; was shaken down. They stood high above the ruins. The quay and mole were crowded with people, who appeared to be panic-struck, for the sea had gone out from the bay, and there was a great wave coming in. Presently they took flight, but at least 200 of them were swept away. Wave succeeded wave at intervals of about a quarter of an hour, and long before dark there was not a vestige of the lower part of the town remaining. During all the night the shocks of earthquake continued, and the noise was like distant cannonading. The water in the few wells that could be got at was so hot (sulphuric) that it was quite undrinkable. So we passed the night on the hills." HAWAII. There is much reason to fear that the Island of Hawaii, in the Pacific Ocean, is gradually sinking into the sea. A great submarine interruption took place in the early part of last year, and since then a marked subsidence has been observed. Had this sinking been equal throughout the island, the phenomenon might have been explained on the theory that a volcanic eruption which upheaved the bed of the Pacific in one part might depress it in another. But whilst one shore of the island has sunk only a few inches, the opposite coast has disappeared to the extent of several feet. This seems to prove that the subsidence is AMERICA, According to the Florence Diritto, the construction of the great monument to be erected in the United States to the late President Lincoln has been entrusted to the Italian sculptor Gagliardi. This memorial is in tended to be of magnificent proportions. It will contain one hundred statues, and its cost will be £40,000. EASTERN EUROPE. A correspondent of the Liberte says there can be little doubt that a formal alliance has been concluded between Russia and Roumania. Private letters from Jassy speak of vast armaments which are being prepared throughout . the Danubian Principalities. "Recruiting goes on inces• santly. The whole country looks like a military depot." That old grievance —the persecution of the Jews on the Danube—has again made its appearance. At Galatz the synagogues have been sacked by the populace, the Jews beaten whilst at praYers, and the books of the law torn in pieces. The insurrection in Crete has finally come to an end. The Greek agitators have given up the attempt to prolong the contest, and the Cretan refugees are returning to the island. GERMANY. According to the Augsburg Gazette, King George of Hanover still preserves many subjects in his lost kingdom. A considerable number of disaffected Hauoverians both hope and believe in the possibility of their late monarch's return. These adherents are dissatisfied with the King's Prime Minister, Count Platen, and a petition has been secretly got up, begging that he may be replaced by Lieutenant von Holle. As the Daily News correspondent remarks, one Minister is quite as likely to secure the return of King George as another. The Libertl, however, says that the agitation against the existence of the North- German Confederation is becoming very serious in the smaller provinces. THE REORGANISATION OF SPAIN. The Central Revolutionary Junta has dissolved, the provincial juntas are following the example, and the Pro visional Government alone will now be left to complete the work of the revolution. Nearly all the correspon dents at Madrid testify to the harmony with which the Junta and the Ministry worked together. It was feared that two sets of authorities would inevitably result in con fusion, jealousy, and perhaps open antagonism, particularly as the Republicans, who were excluded from the Pro visional Government, were well represented in the Junta. These apprehensions have proved to be unfounded. Some of the local bodies have failed to conduct their proceedings with the discretion of the Madrid Junta, but the difficulty has been very trifling. Never was a successful revolution so peacefully followed up. The Times correspondent observes that many of the local juntas have exceeded their powers, and in the enthusiasm of freedom have abolished taxes and duties, suppressed monasteries, and pulled down churches, besides other foolish things. But this excess of zeal is largely owing to the want of commu nication between the provinces and the capital. The fact that these local governments are dissolving all over the country shews that no opposition to the central authority was intended. Marshal Serrano's letter to the GauloiB is a decided manifesto in favour of monarchy. The choice of a Govern ment will be left to the country, but the writer adds : "For my own part, I think a constitutional monarchy, fenced round with all the liberties compatible with that form of government, might be the form most in accord. ance with the spirit of the present time and the special position in which our country is placed." The complete text of the manifesto of the Provisional Government of Spain has been published. It is not quite explicit, the obscurity of the telegraphic sum mary not being altogether dissipated by the original. It is, however, evident that the Ministry has abandoned the idea of a plebiscitum, and has resolved to decide the question of the future govern ment by a Constituent Cortes elected by universal suffrage. The manifesto is not so clear on this point as could be desired, but this is evidently the course which will be adopted, The question of freedom of worship the Ministry declines to entertain. It is to be left to the Cortes. The tone of the document is remarkably dignified and temperate. Co-operative societies are being established in the large Spanish towns. A large number of the Jesuits expelled from Spain have arrived in Belgium. The abolition of the octroi duties has resulted in a considerable fall in the price of all kinds of commodities. Messrs. Baring are openly mentioned at Madrid as the firm which has offered the Provisional Government a considerable loan on easy terms. It is thought that the Church property may pos sibly be made the security. General Novaliches, the only partisan of the fallen Government who is spoken of with respect, is at present in a precarious state : hemorrhage has set in, and has been stopped only with great difficulty. The Liberte thinks the hesitation of the monarchists has rendered the proclamation of a republic inevitable. The Pope has announced to the Provisional Govern ment, through the Nuncio of Madrid, that his Holiness is opposed to the proclamation of freedom of worship. The statement that such a proclamation bad been made is not correct, NEWS PAPE GROUSES ate Russian St. Petersburg jouOnalZ / ili-'li a l founded with the Journal de St. Peter rg)itinnotbien that the Minister of the Interior has addressed a circular to the governors of all the provinces of the Russian Empire, asking their advice as to the best means of checking the progress of drunkenness among the people. The following information has since been collected on this subject :--In 1862 there were 400 public-houses at St. Petersburg; there are now 2,500; Six years ago there was one public-house for every 1,080 inhabitants ; there is one for every 200. Several of these houses are also receptacles for stolen goods. It is now proposed to close 2,162 public-houses in the capital, and a similar proportion in other Russian towns ADVICE TO NON ELECTORS. A Dublin correspondent writes that there are no special features to be noticed in connection with the e:ectioneering movement in the provinces except in one instance, that of the county of Wexford. There, it seems, a special battery is to be prepared to aid in defeating the Conservative can didate. It is to be Tr:finned by the non-electors, and its effectiveness may be judged from Me observations of the rev. gentleman to whom is due the credit of employing such a political projectile. At a meeting held in New Toss to promote the return of Messrs. D'Arcy and Power, it was advocated in a speech which is thus reported in the Daily Express :—" The Rev. William, Murphy, P.P., Cushentown, said he had to say a word to the non-electors, for the power of the non-electors was nearly equal to that of the electors. The electors only represented a community among whom they lived. They represented the non-electors, and the non-electors should make them vote as they wished. He remembered an occasion on which the non-electors exercised their power to good purpose—in the famous rotten-egg electionof Wex. ford, when the electors were made to vote for the Liberal Candidates by the power of rotten eggs. And he thought tat the power of rottie eggs, ought to be as potent as ever to make the electors vote as they ought. He saw about 100 electors going with their agent—the agent of an Orange Tory—to vote for an obnoxious candidate ; but they were met by the power of the people. They 13howered upon the agent a literal shower of rotten. bggs. The agent was dressed up primly, tin white vest, S hat, coat, and pantaloons of unexceptionable cut and colours; but the shower of rotten eggs totally disfigured him. (A Voice : ' Devil's cure to him.') What was then done? Why, in order to put him in good condition again by a good Washing, Tom and Jem Neill, from the Black Cow, and a couple of boys from Billy's•alley, by way of compassion,. after his clothes being destroyed, sopp e d hi m i n th e r i ven ; The tide happened to be in full at the time, and they had i3lenty of water to wash him ; but he lost his shoes in the ducking, and then they sent for a pair of brogues by way of compensation. The brogues were well, paved with hob-nails, and had irons on the heels like asses' shoes. They put the hobnailed brogues on him and said ' Henceforth you will be known as Bill Hobbs ; ' and Bill Hobbs he was called ever after. There's an example of the power of rotten eggs. But now about Pat Hare. He will be bringing up his tenants dressed in nightcaps, in the New Ross steamer, to vote for Orange ascendancy. When they came here he (Rev. Mr. Murphy) would say to the non. electers, meet him as the Wexford men met the a,geet,with a shower of rotten eggs ; don't break his bones, don't touch a hair of his head, but give him a shower of rotten eggs. If they would do that, Pat Hare's tenants would skedaddle home again. This was the most important election they ever had in this country, for if they were beaten now, they would be beaten for ever, and they should hang their heads in shame. Here, he would say, let all Liberal electors vote for Power and D'Arcy, and let all Orange electors stay at home. Let the non-electors be well provided with rotten eggs, and let them use them. If they do, the victory will be theirs in the triumphant return of D'Arcy and Power. He would not speak of the persecution of the Catholics for the past 300 years. He need not refer to the time when that street ran with human gore ; the blood of their uncles and fathers. He himself had an uncle shot in that street. He would not refer to those painful memories at greater length but they could not forget them." ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. -~-- WESTMINSTEIL—Another candidate has appeared in the person of Mr. Bury Victor Hutchinson, who describes him self as a Radical Conservative.

He exhorted High and Low Churchmen to combine 9gether in defence sk the Church _
