SHOCK OF AN EARTHQU,4KE.

(From the Cornish Telegraph.)
On Friday right last, about half-past 10, West
Cornwall was visited by a shock of earthquak, and
although we only experienced the effects of such a
terrible convulsion in the remotest and least alarm'
ing degree, enough was felt to give us some idea of
this phenomenon when it occurs nearer the earth's
crust. The shock was perceptible at the same time
and with similar results throughout the Western
Peninsula, and the only thing we have to note is the
effect it produced on various peeple. We have re-
ceived verbal accounts from St. Just, Madron, Hea
Moor, Marazion, St. Ives, Hayle, Redruth, and the
Isles of Scilly : all describe the shock as prodicing
the same strong vibration as that caused by heavy
waggons or trains as they roll along. Many people
had retired to rest, and speak of the trembling of
their beds for a minute; in several houses in Pen-
zance glasses which stood on the table rang; and in
one house the floor of the back-kitchen vibrated so
much that its occupant, in terror, caught at some
support. At the same time there was a sound like
muffled thunder, so it is narrated to us—that is to
say as if thunder had pealed near the town, but the
sound had been deadened. We heard or felt
nothing of it ourselves, but then, like the old woman
in the nursery tale we live "under (and against)
a hill," and a hundred times a day feel floor vibra-
tions and hear the crockery jingle : accustomed to
the earthquakes of traffic we perceived nothing of
this growl of Dame Nature. Partly owing to their
seclusion and partly owing, probably, to their
proximity to granite, Hea, Moor, Poltair, and
Trengwainton felt the convulsion sensibly, and at
the latter residence the earthenware was thrown
down and the inmates much alarmed. At Hayle
an old man who is a gatekeeper on the West
Cornwall line sprang out of bed in great anxiety,
exclaiming to his wife, " Surely a train has passed !"
Thoughts of a strong gate smashed into match-
wood, perhaps of an accident, and most certainly of
managerial displeasure, came and went; and were
not banished until the troubled watchman dressed
and ascertained that no train had swept past.
The St. Ives people thought a waggon, laden with
one of the immense Cornish boilers, had rumbled
along their streets. At St. Mary's (Islands of
Scilly) no shock or sound was experienced. The
only correspondent who has up to this time
(Monday) written on the subject is Mr. Burney,
R.N., of Mousehole, and we have much pleasure in
appending his description and the result of his
experience :

Mousehole, Jan. 14 1860

Sir,—Last night, at 10.25, a smart shock of an
earthquake was felt here. The shock lasted nearly
a minute, and appeared to extend from south to
north. Thos3 in bed felt as if on board a steamer
in a heavy sea. The noise resembled distant thun-
der, or, more properly speaking, as if a hundred
heavy cables were let go. The sea was greatly
agitated, as if it were boiling, and directly after-
wards there was a heavy squall of rain and wind.
My eldest daughter had just gone to her bedroom,
and describes the scene as follows :—Her toilet-
table, at which she was standing, appeared as if a
bduftalel
person had taken it ley one end and violently
shaken it. The glass, &C., rang, and the various

For nearly a minute she stood trembling; during

Literature began the funeral procession of the
months with the almost simultanejus obsequies of
Hallam in England and of Prescott in America.
These accomplished historians, who won their first
golden spurs at almost the same moment, died
within the same week; and by a curious coinci-
dence this double loss which letters were called to
sustain in January was matched at the close of the
year by the equally contemporaneous decease of
Thomas De Quincey and of Washington Irving.
Another conspicuous name within the restricted
circle of the highest literary culture of our times
must be chronicled with these—that of Sir James
Stephen Professor of History at the University of
Cambridge, and who had long exercised a sort of
consultative supervision over the education of the
heir of the British throne. The world of politics
has *altnost literally closed over the tomb of a great
statesman whose doctrines had ruled the councils of
Europe for nearly 40 years. There is something
worthy of the Tragic Muse of Greece in the close
which awaited the fatally brilliant career of Prince
Metternich. His every success had been a seeming
victory over the instincts of the race, over the laws of
progress, over the rights of men. And never had
man been more seemingly successful than he, alike
in Court and Cabinet. Talent, personal beauty,
power, fame, wealth, had all been lavished upon the
diplomatist whose skill had shaken down, as it was
fancied, the whole fabric of the French Revolution.
He had long passed the ordinary limits of human
life, had seen one after another his great contempo-
raries fall around him, and was reserved himself to
witness at last the utter downfall of the great system
he had founded, the uprising of the Revolution, and
even the returning ghost of the Emperor he had
chained so strongly down upon the rock in the Indian
Sea. The last sun on which he looked shone down
upon the battle-field of Magenta. But the triumph
which France and freedom won over the deathbed
of Metternich was not unalloyed. The death of
Alexis de Toequeville robbed both of a loyal and
gifted champion, who has left behind him but few
in any land fully worthy to wear his mantle. In
our own country the ranks of our public men have
been less sternly swept. Two diplomatists of re-
spectable rank—Mr, Rush, of Pennsylvania, and
Mr. Mason, of Virginia—have been taken from us,
and three senators have fallen, two of whom, Messrs.
• Geyer and Hannegan, had. retired from political life.
Theeleath of the third, Mr. Broderick, of California,
is not likely, wo may hope, to be soon paralleled in
our annals, to which it has given one sad and san-
guinary lesson more. One most able and faithful
Philanthropist has
Hbeen removed from his labours in
the person of
education like Horace Mann, who loved the cause of
as llestalozzi, and toiled in it like a
I fowal el. Our lit
might extend it almost indefinitely
our hands, and we
were we to at-
tempt to include in it all tinoeusircaTly eminent persons

life, but of whom the year which este:rday dawned
will have' no more report

Bosio, was fie reen into silence among the snows of

A whole nation of shopkeepers must needs have
a heavy ledger, and if the reader will turn to
another column of our impression this morning he
will see one of the largest Christmas accounts ever
made up. The figures express nothing less than
the entire amount of British trade—export and
import—all we bought, and all we sold. What we
gained by it is matter of further deduction, but
there, at any rate, are our books completely posted
up for the year 1858. We did a good stroke of
business in that year—not quite so much, appa-
rently, as in 1857, but more in reality, for it was
done on better principles. According to this latest
calculation, we bought goods to the amount of
£160,000,000, and sold goods to the amount of
£140,000,000. The commodities in which we deal are
miscellaneous, but the two comprehensive items of
mines and manufactures will account for almost all.
We produce two great articles of raw material—
coal and iron, and in such quantities indeed, that
the annual -value of the yield i , fully double that
of all the gold of California. By the aid of these
materials we work up others,—cotton in particular,
but also wool, leather, and metals. The labour of
our hands turns them into calicoes, hardware,
machinery, saddlery, and such like productions, for
all of which we find ready markets abroad. But
for getting through all this work we require two
things—stuffs to work with and food to live
upon. So we send abroad and buy enormous
quantities of cotton, flax, hemp, wool, hides, and
silk ; and almost equal quantities of corn, flour,
tea, sugar, coffee, cocoa, tobacco, spirits, and wine.
To these in 1858 'we added: nearly 300,000 live
cattle, principally sheep. It is plain, therefore, we
live by the work of our hands. We can supply any
people with coal or calicoes, raw iron or wrought
iron, so cheaply that they could never find a better
market, and we can deal with them in return
either for raw materials or articles of food so
liberally that they will get an excellent bargain.
Next to the description of the business, the most
important point is that of our customers, and here
the account present some very striking features.
The United States are, beyond all comparison, the
largest customers with whom we have any dealings,
but they do not buy of us half as much as they sell.
Germany, on the other hand, takes from us, through
the Hanse Towns, twice as much as she sends, while
Spain and Turkey keep the balance pretty even.
India also is a most important customer to us, for
the account between the two countries is not only
very large—X3o,ooo,ooo and upwards both ways
together—but is somewhat in our favour. From
the Chinese, of course, we buy immense stocks of
tea and silk, whereas at present we sell them next
to nothing. Russia, again, is more of a seller than
a buyer, which, is not extraordinary, considering
how much we want of her produce and how little
she actually needs of ours ; but there is another
example which is -of more importance than all.
Nothing can be plainer than that' our dealings with
France are unnaturally restricted. We ourselves
do not go to France for so much as we really want,
though we do take £l3 000 000 worth from her,
but when it comes to the turn of Frenchmen to be
buyers the figures are less satisfactory still. They

£3,200,000
This statement materially differs from that of
February, as the total requirement is made less by
£1,800,000, and the amount to be raised by Exche-
quer-bills is, for the first time, brought into the
account. The Government estimate an issue of
these bills in 1859-60 of £2,500,000, of which they
calculate on repaying £2,100,000, as the holders
have the option of claiming the amount in 12 or
3 months. But there are symptoms that the
result will be yet more satisfactory, and that this
new security will greatly facilitate all future arrange-
ments. The general opinion in India is described
to be much in its favour. From the first it was
believed that the Government would both issue and
keep afloat a far larger amount than they had
assumed to be probable, and experience has
strengthened that impression. The bills carry
interest daily at a rate equal to 41 per cent., and
when they have been out 12 months they are receiv •
able in payment of Customs and all other revenue
duties. But the Government were naturally so
uncertain as to the success of the experiment that
in the estimate of February last no results from it
were taken into account. On the recommendation
of the Chambers of Commerce, they now publish in
the Calcutta official Gazette a quarterly statement
of the sums paid into the open loans. On the 9th of
November the figures were given for the first two
quarters of the current year—namely, from the Ist
of May to the 31st of October, and the totals were
as follows :

Cash paid into 51 per cent. loan £1,321,000
For Exchequer-bills 2,099,000

" The three princesses are daughters of the
Queen of Spain, the Hereditary Prince :of Reuss-
Schleiz, and Prince Frederick of Holstein-Sonder-
burg•G lucksburg.
" MARRIAGES.—OnIy four marriages have taken
place, viz. :-1. The marriage of the Prince Royal,
now King of the Two Sicilies, with the Princess
Mary of Bavaria; 2, the marriage of the Prince
Napoleon of France (son of Prince Jerome) with
the Princess Clotilda of Sardinia; 3, the marriage
of Prince George of Saxony, the King's son, with
the Princess Mary-Anne of Portugal; and 4, the
marriage of the Prince Louis Napoleon Gregory
Bonaparte, son of the Prince Charles of Canino and
uncle of Lucien, with the Princess Christina Ruspoli.

" Among the 48 sovereigns now reigning (includ-
ing the Emperor of Brazil, the Prince of Monaco,
two Queens, and the three sovereigns de jure but
not de facto of Tuscany, Parma, and Modena), the
oldest is the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz,
whose age is 84 years and 4 months. Four sove-
reigns are upwards of 70, viz., the King of Wurtem-
berg, the Landgrave of Hesse-Hornberg, and the
Princes of Schaumburg-Lippe and Reuss-Sehleiz.
Five are between 60 and 70, nine between 50 and
60, nine between 30 and 40, six between 20 and 30,
and lastly three are not yet 20 years old. These
last, the ycungest among the actual sovereigns, are
the Prince of Lichtenstein, who has turned his 19th
year • the Prince of Reuss-Greiz, who is 13 years 9
months ; and the Duke of Parma, who is only 12i.
Both of these are under the guardianship of their
mothers. The average of these sovereigns is 45
years 9 months, and among them there are 20 who
have passed that age.
" The sovereign who has reigned longest is the
Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe, having been on the
throne nearly 73 years. After him come the Duke
of Sase-Meiningen, and the Prince of Schaumburg
Rudolstadt, who have reigned respectively 56 years
and 52 years 9 months, including the years of their
minority. Among the others, three have reigned
between 40 and 50, ten between 20 and 30, fourteen
between 10 and 20 years. The remaining 18 only
began to reign within the last 10 years, an among
them there are four, viz., the King of Sweden, the
King of the Two Sicilies, the Grand Duke of Tus-
cany (whose father has abdicated), and the Prince
of Reuss- Greiz, who only assumed the reigns of
government during the year just ended.
" `six sovereigns are not married or have not yet
been. These are, besides the Pope, the Dukes of
Brunswick and Parma, the Princes of Lichten-
stein and Reuss Greiz, and the Landgrave of
Hesse-Homburg. Among the others there are
nine who aro widowers, viz., the Kings of Sardinia,
Belgium, and Portugal, the Grand Duke of Tus-
cany, and the Duke of Anhalt-Dessau -Kcethen.
One sovereign is divorced, the Prince of Schwarz-
burg-Sonderhausen. Two have contracted mor-
ganatic marriages, the King of Denmark and the
Elector of Hesse Cassel ; and ono sovereign, the
Grand Turk, lives in polygamy.
" Among the 31 wives of the other Christian
sovereigns regularly married, the oldest are the
Grand Duchess of Meoklenburgh-Strelitz and the

' £3,420,000
The return is defective in an important particular,
since it does not state the amount of Exchequer-
bills that had been repaid, but it shows that
whereas the estimate of the 30th of September puts
down £2,800,000 as the sum to be raised from the
ordinary loan in the year, nearly half had been re-
ceived in six months, when the prospects of Indian
finance were considered discouraging, and that the
new security in the shape of Exchequer or Trea-
sury bills had become so popular that nearly
£2,100,000 had been issued in half a year, against
an estimated issue of £,2,500,000 in the whole
year. The impression is, moreover, that a large
amount of this issue is found to float, and will con-
tinue to float. The Goverament,in their September
despatch, estimated it at only £400,000, but the
Bank of Englaad alone holds £500,000, as shown
by its last published return. Finally, it is to be
remarked that the latest Calcutta journals, as well
as the commercial letters, mention that since the
publication of the Gazette statement large amounts
of cash and 5 per cent. paper were being paid in
for the 51 per cent. loan, and that it was conse-
quently expected to be shortly closed. This con-
summation, which will perhaps be hastened by the
increased Customs' duties on the great importation
of cotton goods, &c., is desirable since the terms
are bad for the Government—one-half being re-
ceivable in 5 per cent. paper, which was at a dis-
count, and the principal not being redeemable
until 1879.—Times

Last night the usual meeting of the Statistical
Society was held at their rooms, St. James's-square,
Colonel Sykes in the chair.
Mr. L. LEVI read a paper " On the past, present,
and future condition of the leading branches of the
revenue of the United Kingdom." After setting
forth the importance of the subject, and dealing at
great length with the various items of the public
revenue, Professor Levi thus7summed up the results
at which he arrived :-1. That having regard to the
vast increase in the resources of the United King-
dom, the amount of taxation could not be con-
sidered as a hindrance to the development of
national wealth. 2. That a considerable approach
had been made towards equality in the distribution
of taxation amongst the various classes of the com-
munity. 3. That it did not seem to be expedient
to alter the present mode of raising the revenue by
a mixed system of direct and indirect taxation.
4. That the customs duties should be levied on as
few articles as possible. 5. That the remaining
duties on raw materials and manufactured goods
should be abolished. 6. That it was desirable to
realise as speedily as possible the contem-
plated reduction in the tea and sugar duties.
7. That the wine duties should be considerably
reduced. 8. That the paper duty should be
abolished. 9. That the duties on fire and
marine insurance should be regarded as taxes on
prudence, and that the duty on licenses should be
remitted. 10. That the property and income tax
should be partially capitalised ; that a reduction
should be made in the rate levied under schedule D,
and that operatives in the receipt of high wages
should be included in the income tax. It would be
impossible to enter minutely into the mass of
figures which the learned professor dealt with, but
the following will give an idea of the result of his
calculations. The population of 29,000,000 was
distributed as follows :—The upper. class, one
million, paid £22,500,000 in taxes, or £22 per
head ; the middle class, nine millions, paid
£33,000,000, or £3 13s. per head; the working
class, eighteen millions, paid £18,300,000, or £1
per head ; leaving one million of poor dependent
on parochial relief, who paid no taxes. The average
of the whole was £2 15s. per head. The income of
the upper class was. £180,000,000; of the
middle class, £270,000,000; of the working
class, £150,000,000, or £600,000,000 for
the whole. The distribution of taxation
was given as follows :—Customs--Tea and sugar,
£11,000,200; tobacco, £5,500,000; wine and spirits,
£4,300,000 ; other articles, £4,000,000. Excise—
Spirits and malt, £15,000,000; licenses, £1,500,000 ;
paper, £1,300,000; carriages and horses, £1,000,000.
Stamps, £8,000,000 ; taxes, £3,000,000 ; income-
tax, £7,000,003 ; poor rates, £6,000,000 ; local
rates, £6,000,000 ; making a total of £73,800,000.
Of this total £22,500,000 were supposed to be paid
by the upper class, £32,900,000 by the middle
class, aid £18,300,000 by the working class.
It came out very curiously that each class contri-
buted about 12 per cent. of their income to the
revenue—the upper class £22 per head, the middle
class £3 135., and the working class £l. The pre-
sent income from the customs was £22,300,000; from
the excise, £18,300,000; stamps, taxes, post-office,
and income-tax [the last £6,600,000] £19,100,000;
making a total of £60,700,000. The prospective
revenue in 1857, when it was assumed the popula-
tion would be 32 millions, was £63,400,000, the re-
venue at present derived from raw materials, manu-
factured goods, imported cheese and butter, and the
excise duty on paper being omitted in the prospec-
tive revenue, on the supposition that they would be
abolished. Professor Levi stated that, though based
on positive data, his estimates could only be re-
garded as approximate results.
A brief discussion ensiled, in which Mr. Danson,
Dr. Guy, and Sir F. Gel dsmid took part, after which
a vote of thanks was passed to Professor Levi for
his paper.
