Another Earthquake.

A shock of earthquake appears to have ben felt in some
parts of Sussex on Saturday night. The Sussex Advertiser
says :—" Shortly before midnight on Saturday last a curi-
ous phenomena was experienced at Maresfield, Sheffield
Park, Fletching, Chailey, and the neighbourhood, and
which has been attributed to the shock of an earth-
quake. The shock seems to have been confined to a
somewhat limited area, At Maresfield, the phenomenon
was experienced at nine minutes past 11, and is described
in a letter from Captain Noble as an extraordinary vibra-
tion, lasting 15 seconds, and shaking the doors, windows,
and beds at Islaresfield Lodge with some violence. The
oscillation and vibration were likewise generally felt through-
cut the parish, At Sheffield Park, the seat of the Earl of
Sheffield, the earthquake was felt by the members of the
noble Earl's family and household. The time recorded here
is six minutes past 11. Among other indications, the but-
ler heard the mortar fall behind the wainscot, and a loose
bar attached to a window shutter oscillated and struck the
shutter. Lord Pevensey and Mr. Douglas Holroyd, who
were at Sheffield Park, distinctly felt the shock. At Scaymes
Hill, it is stated that the bells at the public-house distinctly
vibrated; while at Fletching, the family of Mr. Jones were
disturbed by a rumbling noise. Similar sensations were
experienced at Buckham Hill and Chailey—more especially
at two cottages at the latter place, where the shock seems
to have been more severely felt." Captain Noble writes :
One of the ladies of my family describes the sensation she
experienced as that of having her bed moved to and from
the wall against which its head stands, as though some
one had got underneath it and were trying to lift it. As
the bedstead in question stands nearly S.E. and N.W. this
may serve to give an idea of the path of the earthquake
wave,if such it were. I learn from various sources that this
oscillation and vibration were felt all over the parish.
Finally, three of my female servants were again alarmed
some time after midnight by a rushing sound, as though
of violent hail, passing close to their windows, although,
on looking out, nothing was visible, nor has either hail or
rain fallen here since the 28th ult. The Surrey Standard
says :—" The village of Fletching was last Saturday night,
about half-past 11, alarmed by a violent jarring of the
houses, which was supposed by many to be either the
shock of an earthquake or an explosion of some powder
magazine. It was of very short duration, but so violent
was it as to awake many from their sleep. One:gentleman
says, ' I was sitting reading on the ground floor, and my
chair quite shook under me.' It was also felt at the same
time in the attic. We hear the shock was also felt at
Newick and Piltdown."

THE BRITISH AND THE AUSTRIAN FL
AccordingTs .
Ato
letter from Kiel of the 30th of April says—"what we have just learnt here the Austrian squadron will
soon come to the Bay of Kiel to reinforce the war vessels
of Prussia, which, in order to escape the superior maritime
forces of Denmark, have taken refuge in the Dutch ports.
The arrival of an English squadron of observation in our
port is also regarded as very probable. Arrangements are
even being made at this moment to collect in the magazines
a large quantity of coals and food for the supply of the
British fleet. The English vessels will thus be placed in. a
position of observation side by side with those of the Aus-
trians and Prussians in the same bay, and if, as is not im-
probable, these last make their appearance before Copen-
hagen, it cannot be doubted that they a ill be followed by
the British naval forces. It is not to be inferred, however,
from these different movements, that a collision will take
place between the ships of the Powers represented in the
North Sea. Has not England superabundantly proved of
late that she is by no means disposed to intervene actively
in the present war in favour of Denmark r'

For nearly three months the army had held the Dybbof
position with enduring courage against an enemy far supe-
rior in numbers and resources. He had been compelled to
proceed to a regular siege of the field position, to obtain
the prospect of overcoming its defenders. During the last
few weeks his numerous and excellent artillery—with which
ours could not cope, save with the certainly of total
destruction before the storm —hal played upon tho
position from various points with constantly in-
creasing vehemence. The most essential conditions.
for successful defence, consisting is the efficient state of the
artillery, formidable p is.sive obstacles, the energy of the Ey-
ing defenders, and uninterrupted readiness of the garrison
to repel attack, could not pos:libly be maintained in full
vigour.
These unfavourable circumstances were greatly increased
by the bombardment of the position, lasting from the 17th.
ult. to far on in the forenoon of the 18th, the most severe
and continuous to which it had been exposed. The fire was
especially concentrated against Forts 3,4, 6, and 6. Thar
parapets were entirely demolished and their palisade works
shot away. To remain in them was impossible. The re-
turn fire of our guns was reduced to a minimum, without
possibility of renewal or repair of the defences. Added to
this, several officers, some of rank, had been killed or
wounded on the left wing on the morning of the 18th.
Meanwhile the enemy worked in his trenches and in the
nearest garallel, which, through connection with our ride-
pits, the same night was rapidly formed into a continuous
line from the extreme left wing to before Fort 8. He had
thus gained a covered way and a protected position to
within 260 yards, in some places in front of Fort 5 to within.
200 yards, from our works.
When guard was relieved upon the evening of the 17th
the position was occupied by the following divisions:—
Upon the left wing, from Forts 1 to 6 inclusive, the Ist
brigade (the 2d and 22d Regiments); on the right wing,
Forts 7 to 10, the 3d brigade (16th and 17th Regiments);
upt n theground near the barracks was the Bth brigade (9th
and 2 )th Regiments), as &Aline of reserve ; in the •,..t,-(14.
pont were three battalions of the 2d brigade (3d and 18th
Regiments) ; while another battalion of the 3d Regiment
was posted as reserve behind Forts 9 and 10, upon the road
to Aabenraa.
The infantry garrison had previously been permitted
during the day, and -whenever the bombardment was very
violent, to seek cover in the ground immediately in rear of
the works. This permission was possibly made use of in
most of the forts, as several hours in the forenoon of the
18th passed without any apparent diminution ire
the violence of the bombardment, which seemed indeed
rather to increase. About 10 o'clock the enemy broke forth
along his whole line, from Forts Ito 6. Fort 5, one of the
most severely injured, was the first reached, and seems to
have been surprised and captured without a shot being
fired. Almost simultaneously Fort 6 was stormed with
scarcely any check. The garrison running into the trenches
found the enemy already on the parapet. Fort 4 was taken
a little later, but here the resistance is said to have been
greater. The same seems also, at least in part, to have
been the case with the remaining works on the left wing.
Tha small arm fire now brought up the reserve. General
Du Flat, commanding the position, hurried to the front.
The Bth brigade was instantly sent forward to occupy the
second line of entrenchments, but the enemy was already
far advanced upon the extreme left wing. The brigade
commander at this point, Colonel Lesson, as well as both
battalion commanders of the 22nd Regiment, had fallen, aid
several officers were wounded; consequently the resistance
was not successful in checking the enemy outside the second
entrenched line, which had also lost its natural support in.
Fort 6, and the fleclis of the high road, some hundred paces
in the rear.
The 20th Regiment, which rapidly hurried to meet the
enemy, encountered him 200 yards on this side the en-
trenched line, but drove him back to a hedge in its front,
where his resources had already arrived. The general of
the division in person was present in the sharp engagement
which took place here about 11 o'clock, upon the ground
both south and north of the main road between Dybbol
mill and the barracks. He brought up the Bth brigade,
and endeavoured to check the enemy's advance until notice
had been given to the right wing to commence a general
and tactical retreat.
Upon the left wing one battalion of the 17th Regiment had
occupied the trenches between Forts 7 and 8, with the latter
fort; the second battalion held the trenches between forts
8 and 9. During the storm Fort 8 did not fire a shot, but
when at 10.15 the enemy debouched from the line between.
5 and 6, and advanced in columns against the entrenched
lino of 6 to 7, a heavy fire was poured into his flank from the
Ist battalion of the 17th Regiment in Fort 7. The line from
6 to 7 had been intended to be occupied by the brigade in
the tete-de-pont, as soon as this was relieved by the brigade
advancing from Sundsmark. But as this force had not yet
come up, and the resistance in the first line was not strong
idiniAit.Pasliiffette second' enelefcrecnia7-7ifirsl7flei
through the line from Forts 6 to 7, and entered Fort 7 from
the rear. Trenches 7 to 8 were thus enfiladed, and became
untenable. Col. Bernstorff then ordered an attack to recover
Fort 7, which was not successful. The colonel was mor-
tally wounded, and the line from six to seven obliged to
be given up, the garrison retreating, skirmishing from
hedge to hedge. Meantime the 2d battalion of the
regiment held its post, and not being attacked in front
faced about and took the enemy in flank, as he showed him-
self in rear of Fort 7, At about 11 o'clock the 17th Regi-
ment began the retreat, which the IGth Regiment hal
already commenced, while one battalion of the 3d had taken
up its post upon the Aabenraa road, to cover the retiring
brigade.

The retreat from the Dybbol position was thus about to
commence along the whole line, when the commander-in-
chief arrived. Warned by the small arm fire in the position,
before receiving a report of the state of affairs—for a break-
down of the telegraph had necessitated the report being
brought to Ulkibol by hand—he had given orders to the
different divisions in the cantonments to advance according
to the arrangements already made.
The commanding general took up his post upon an ele-
vation to the north of Sonderborg, whence he could over-
look the engagement; the chief of the staff went to the nor-
thern tete-de-pont, where General Steinmann soon after-
wards arrived to take command of the right wing. The
sub-chief, Major Rosen, had hastened to the front, and was
in search of General Du Plat, near the barracks.
The enemy continued to send forward larger masses of
troops, and strong bodies of trailleurs came up upon his left
flank. The Bth brigade could no longer hold its ground.
General Du Plat fell mortally wounded; Major Rosen met
the same fate, as he was hurrying up to assist his comman-
der. Major Shau, the chief of the divisional staff, was also
wounded, and these distinguished officers shortly after-
wards fell into the enemy's hands.
Towards 12 o'clock the remainder of the left wing
reached the tete-de-pont, which, together with the bat-
teries outside and at Sonderborg, and the Rolf Brake,
directed a powerful fire upon the advancing enemy, holding
him in check, and forcing him to seek cover.
The Commander-in-Chief then took the necessary steps
to secure the retreat of the right wing, which was not yet
in sight from the tete-de-pont, and to organise the retiring
troops—most deprived of their leaders—in a defensive
position across the Sand. The adjutant at headquarters
carried out this task, and at the same time assigned places
to the troops arriving from the cantonments. The °nerds
were posted in the trenches from the northern bridge to
the castle; field batteries 2,8, and 10—in all IS guns—
were mounted in the works already prepared in the church-
yard
rt, constantly
and near the castle, and the 11th battery
was
sent out
in front of the Mill-hill to fire into the enemy's right flank.

enemy's flank from the trenches upon Als. It is believed
repulsed
that his loss at this point was considerable.
In the meantime. however, it became evident that he
tetes-de-pout, in themselves weak, could not long be held.
The artillery:fire upon them became more and more vehe-
ment , their sides were enfiladed from Dybbol-mill, their
guns dismounted, and as longer defence would have ren-
dered it doubtful whether the enemy, in a determined at-
tack, might not cross the bridges simultaneously with our
troops, it was determined to commence the evacuation, for
which the repulsed attack just mentioned afforded an op.
portunity. The evacuation was then carried out from the
wings, and the bridges were detached, the northern first,
both under a heavy fire, but with exemplary quiet and
order.

The fire continued for above an hour with undiminished
vigour, then slackened, but did not finally clear until dusk.
The Commander-in-Chief has not yet been able to mention
by name those who distinguished themselves on this bloody
day, and terminated a long episode filled with hardships,
sufferings, and the most grievous proofs of heroism ; but he
has reported to the ministry the unreserved and devoted
courage with which the officers of the army, from the gene.
ral to the lowest subaltern, went into action at the head of
their men. Although the day has riot been fortunate for
our valiant army, it has at any rate not lessened the repu-
tation it had already acquired by its defence of the Dybbol
position.
The Comssander-in-Chief cannot precisely specify the
extent of our losses, but they cannot be estimated at less
than upwards of 4,0C,0 men in killed, wounded, and missing,
The enemy's loss must also have been great,

The long debate on Mr. 'Zwart's motion was vary
applicable at the present time, when the conduct
and management of our criminal classes engrosses
Bo large a share of public attention, and the cases
where the ultimata penalty of the law is inflicted
have given rise to such numerous discussions and
conflicting statements. Mr. EwART's sentiments
on this topic are well known, and the majority of
opinions both in the House and throughout the
country will be against him. It is not so much
with his extreme views that those who analyse the
debate have to do, as with the more moderate ideas
and extended notions that were expressed during
the course of the debate by many other hoc. mem-
bers. Those who are half inclined to agree with
Mr. EWAIIT mast acknowledge that the present is
21911 t UngqitElble time to abolish capital punish-
