EARTHQUAKE AT TERNATE

The Avenbode gives the following particulars of the disas
ter which has befallen the island of Ternate . .

" On the morning of the 2d of Febraury, at half past eight
o'clock, the air appeared dark and threatening, a strong
north .west wind, accompanied by heavy rain, drove the
clouds impetuously along, and everything seemed to indicate
some extraordinary phenomenon, which in fact soon followed ;
for a thick smoke soon arose from the crater, accompanied
by a loud subterranean noise, like thunder, while boiling lava
and hot ashes burned and destroyed everything around them.
If the appearance of the phenomena was striking in the day-
time, it was still more so in the evening, when the stones pro-
jected from the crater could be distinguished among the

ames which frequently rose to a great height. This dearuc

tive eruption continued 24 hours, and ended with a frightful
subterraneous noise, which. made the inhabitants fear that
the ground would give way under their feet. The noise was
so great that persons close together could not hear each other
speak. Passing over some days we come to the 14th of Feb.
which proved so disastrous. At half-past twelve at night a
loud noise was heard, accompanied by a. slight trembling of
the' ground, which grew every moment more violent, and
waked the inhabitants from their sleep. As the shocks be-
came more violent most of the people left their habitations.
At half-past three in the morning, while the rain fell in tor-
rents, a violent shock was felt, the people could hardly keep
then:feet, the houses were shaken, and most of the buildings
fell. In many places the earth opened and immediately
closet' again. Nothing was left undamaged, and on the 15th

FebAndu re seemed to have obtained the iiigliest point of fury.
An extreme violent shock was felt ; men and animals has-
tened in terror to the water side, filled all the boats without
distinction of rank. The fears, especially of the women were
so great, that some went a great distance through the water,
in order to reach a boat, to escape being swallowed up by the
earth, which opened from time to time. When the fury of
the storm was past, and the poor inhabitants had in some
measure recovered their fright, they perceived how complete
their ruin was. Men's possessions were laid waste, the most
costly spices, and numerous other productions, were spoiled
and buried under the ruins, not a piece of furniture saved,
and not one stone house in all Ternate remains standing.
Even Fort Orange, which has withstood several earthquakes
for these 200 years, has given way on this occasion, and truly
the welfare and imporiance of ,TernatC to out govetntnent is
lost. The private injury is estimated at 000,000 tlorins. The
shocks were felt at Gildo and Tiden, but no damage was done
—thanks to Heaven no lives were lost. Most of the people
will leave the island and settle elsewhere.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

•
GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—We can state from the
best authority, that the line will be opened from hence to
Bath in about three weeks from the present time. Every
thing progresses most satisfactorily in regard to the prepar-
tory arrangements. Mr. Brunnell is now on th,.
pushing the work forward with great rapidity, and ,
activity prevails in every department. One locomotive is at
present being tried on this part of the line ; and in the
of next week, we understand, four otb—
placed on the rail for the same purpose.—
BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.—Fr,
presented by the first few miles of this line, we snout,
that there is a probability of its being shortly opened to th
public. The permanent way is laid a considerable distanct
and is ready for the rails, and the bridge
nearly finished. We went some miles down the
days since, and we were much pleased with the forward
of the works.—lbid.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, AUGUST 1

TheS'4lil;;VGr;in:ltTc., either of Foreign or British produce.
have, this week, been very moderate. The receipts from abroad
including 1,860 barrels of Flour from Canada and 1,200 sacks front
the East Indies. The have been released from bond 4,176 quarters
of Oats, 1,348 quarters Beans, and 1,134 barrels of Flour. The only
change in duties is an advance of is 6d per quarter on Barley. We
have now had several days of fine weather, under the influence of
which prices of .free Wheat have rather given way. Yesterday
purchases were effected at 2d and, in sonic instances, at 3d per
bushel below the rates of Tuesday, and only a limited amount of
business was done. Free Flour was also fully 6d per barrel cheaper.
As regards these articles in bond, the confidently-expected fall of
duty has kept prices steady, and several parcels of both have
changed hands. Oats have again been little inquired for, and.
tkough in small supply, have barely sustained previous rates.
Oatmeal, for which the demand for Ireland has subsided, must also
be quoted is ber load cheaper. Beans and Peas each Is 'to 2s per
quarter dearer

IMPORTANT TO MUNICIPAL VOTERS,

To secure a vote at the next municipal election, the
following is the necessary qualification, namely :
" The occupation on the ensuing 31st August, and
during the two preceding years, of a house, warehouse,
counting-house, or shop, within the borough, for which
the occupier is rated, and on which all rates due thereon,
except those becoming due within six months before the
31st, have been paid before that date."

The occupier must also, during the whole of that pe-
riod, (say two years and nine months) have been an in-
habitant householder within seven miles of the borough.
The day on which claimants' qualifications must be
completed, and the last day for payment of rates, is the
31st of August. The sth of September is the day on
which the overseers are required to make out the burgess
lists, and to deliver them to the Town-clerk, who is to
fix a copy of them on the Town-hall, during the week
preceding the 15th of September.

A person succeeding to the occupation of a house, 4v.,
by descent, marriage, demise, 4-c., is entitled to reckon
as his own the occupancy and rating of the person by or
through whom he succeeds.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tms, DAY

With a few further arrivals since Friday, we have to report
a moderate quantity only of Wheat and Barley, chiefly foreign,
with about 6200 brls. Flour from Canada and the United
States ; but of other articles, either British or from abroad,
the supplies of the week are comparatively trivial.
The slack demand in the leading country markets of this
district towards the close of last week, with the certainty of
lower duties on Wheat, and more especially the conti
nuance of beautifully fine weather, contribute to depress
the trade here, and render buyers extremely cautious.

Under these circumstances, and upon a very slender
attendance at our Corn Exchange to-day, all descriptions
of English, Irish, and Foreign free Wheats, met a very
dull, tedious sale, and holders submitting to a further abate-
ment, our quotations are reduced 3d. to 4d. per 701bs.
below those of this day se'nnight.
Bonded Wheat, on the contrary, although not readily dis-
posed of, met some inquiry at late prices, and several cargoes
were withdrawn from sale.—Flour, duty paid, moved off
slowly, at a decline of Is. per barrel; States Flour under
lock, however, maintained its former value, a few thousand
barrels having been taken to-day at 30s.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease continued to rule nearly
the same as on Friday.

Oats, upon a very limited demand, were full Id. per 451bs.
lower than last week.—Oatmeal giving way ls. per 2401b5,
country dealers were induced to buy more freely than for
some time past, and a fair amount of business was transacted
at that abatement.

SKETCH OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS

[We abridge the following 'admirable sketch from one of a
series of papers in the Britannia, entitled, " The Anatomy

of Parliament."]
In all probability, the majority of my readers have never
been within the walls of the House of Lords ; and would ra-
ther have a circumstantial description of
.what it really is,
than be called upon to indulge at second-hand in associations
which are after all perhaps somewhat trite. For this pur-
pose, then, we will post ourselves in the gallery appropriated

SE.LEcT EXTRACTS

DISCOVERY OF ANTIQUES IN WALLACIIIA.—A letter
which M. Saint-Marc Girardin has received from Bucharest
contains some interesting particulars of an archaeological dis-
covery recently made in Wallachia. The letter is from M.
Billecocq, consul-general of France in the principalities of
the Danube, and states, that at a distance of two or three
leagues N.W. of Bonzeo, a small town of Wallachia, situate
on the road from Bucharest to Jassy, some peasants found
several objects in the fields where they were at work, which
they supposed to be of common metal, and therefore sold the
most massive for a trifle to one of those troops of Bohemians
who travel the country, exercising the profession of farriers
and tinkers. " This utensil, which by its form might be
taken for a vast water-jug, was broken up with a hatchet by
its new proprietors, for the purpose of satisfying themselves
as to the nature of the metal, and the use to which they could
turn it. It was of pure gold, as were all the other objects
found at the same time, and remaining in the hands of the
peasants. The prince, when at length he heard of these facts,
instituted inquiries on the Subject, and all the articles were
given up to his agents ; but to this day it has been impossible
to obtain from the peasants the knowledge of the exact spot
at which the discovery was made. Even threats of criminal
proceedings and punishment have failed. I send yon a com-
plete list of these fine antiques, and drawings of some of them.
I say antiques, because the mythological representations
which they bear justify me in at once assigning the whole of
them to ancient art. On one of the collars, of which I send
you a drawing, there is an inscription which might prove .a
very valuable indication; but to all here it is unintelligible.
Even at Vienna the inscription has been pronounced undeci-
pherable ; but I should think it will be read at the Institute."
The list accompanying the letter contains a very detailed ac-
count of the various objects recovered from the peasants and
Bohemians; all which are of gold, some ornamented with
crystal and coloured stones. They include two rings or large
circles—a gorget or breastplate—four lamps, one representing
a falcon, two the goddess Iris, and the fourth without figured
ornament; three vases with handles, a plateau or tray, and a
patera.—.Athenceum.

measure

Lord DUNCANNON answered in the affirmative. It was,
therefore, read the second time, and ordered to be considered
in committee on Monday.

On the motion of tile Marquis of LANSDOWNE, there
were ordered to be laid before parliament certain correspon-
dence between the Governor of New South Wales and the
Secretary of State for the Colonies, on the subject of the
rate of sale, &c., of crown lands.

On moving that their lordships go into committee on the
bills of exchange act continuance bill, the Marquis of LANS-
DOWNE expressed his approbation of the measure, while
Lord WHARNCLIFFE considered that there are weighty ob-
jections to continuing such an act, without the sanction of
previous

- The bill eventually went through committee, but with
some amendments, limiting its duration, &c.
The third reading of the municipal corporations (Ireland)
bill, called forth much desultory conversation, and further
amendments.

Lord LYNDHURST proposed to omit the clause giving the
lord-lieutenant power to fix the time for holding the sessioqs
before the recorder of Dublin ; and the rejection of the words
objected to by his lordship was carried on a division.
The bill was then passed.
The rating of stock in trade bill was read the second time ;
the chimney sweepers bill went through committee ; and the
remaining bills having been disposed of, their lordships ad-
journed.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

The old lady of the Mercury was amazingly witty on Friday,
upon the discovery of an error in one of our leaders, which
any man of common comprehension would have discovered
at once to be a mere typographical blunder. The words
" Romish France," should have been " Romish fraud."
We used too, it seems, the word " blooded," as applied to
the fangs of a wolf ; and our captious, and, in this case,
ignorant contemporary, would have us use the word
" bled," as more grammatical. The Mercury, we dare
say, has never ridden at the tail of a pack of foxhounds, or
he would know that, as a sporting expression, the word
" blooded" is in common acceptation. We should ima-
gine, however, that a man of his extensive reading, might,
by chance, have noticed its application to beasts of prey,
who, when allowed to taste blood, are said to be " blooded.
We had prepared a short notice of one or two other in-
stances of our contemporary's segacity, but more impor-
tant matter has induced us to postpone it until Friday.
" An Enemy to Sabliath Desecration;" in very itrongterms
urges us to remonstrate with the directors of the Mecha-
nics' Institution, for devotapg the hours of Sunday last to
clear away the mass of artiNes which have been on view for
the few last weeks. He states, that as the exhibition was
closed late on Saturday evening, and the schools opened
yesterday morning, the rooms could not have been cleared
without infringing on the hours of the Sabbath. We be-
lieve the fear of our correspondent to be groundless.
Since the above was written, we have been informed, on good
authority, that the whole of the rooms immediately wanted
in the Mechanics' Institution were cleared after twelve
o'clock on Sunday night. The circumstance that Dr.
Raffles's congregation had their religious services in the
building on the Sabbath, ought to remove any doubt on
the subject.
Several original articles (including some remarks in reply to
Mr. Scoble's speech at Manchester, last week,) are una-
voidably postponed, to make room tor the report of Dr.
Lardner, s trial.

" Look how/ they come—a mingled crowd
Of bright and dark, but rapid days ;
Beneath them, like a summer cloud,
The wide world changes as ye gaze !"
Speak it not lightly !—'tia a holy thing,
A bond enduring through long distant years,
When joy o'er thine above is hovering,
Or when thine eye is wet with bitterest tears.
Recorded by an angel's pen on high,
And must be questioned in eternity !

Speak it not lightly !—though the young and gay
Are thronging round thee now, with tones of mirth,

Let not the holy promise of to-day
Fade like the clouds that with the morn have birth,
But ever bright and sacred may it be,
Stored in the treasure-cell of memory.
Life will not prove all sunshine : there will come
Dark hours for all : 0 will ye, when the night
Of sorrow gathers thickly round your home,
Love as ye did, in times when calm and bright
Seem'd the sure path ye trod, untouched by care,
And deemed the future like the present fair!
Eyes that now beam with health, may yet grow dim,
And cheeks of rose forget tho early glow ;
Languor and pain assail each active limb,
And lay perchance, some worship'd beauty low ;
Then will ye gaze upon the altered brow,
And love as fondly, faithfully as now !
Should fortune frown on your defenceless head,
Should storms o'ertake your bark on life's dark sea ;
Fierce tempests rend the sail so gaily spread,
When Hope her syren strain sang joyously ;
Will ye look up, though clouds your sky o'ercast,
And say, " together we will bide the blast ?"

Age, with its silvery locks comes stealing on,
And brings the tottering step, the furrow'd cheek,
The eye from whence each lustrous gleam hath gone,
And the pale lip, with accents low and weak ;
Will ye then think upon your life's gay prime,
And smiling, bid Love triumph over Time?
Speak it not lightly ! Oh ! beware, beware !
'Tis no vain promise, no unmeaning word ;
Lo! men and angels lisp the faith ye swear,
And by the high and holy ONE 'tis heard;
0 then kneel humbly at His altar now,
And pray for strength to keep your marriage vow !
