who might have been her father, but whom she
really loved, as She proved by the attention she
pad him. and by her spotless behaviour; she was
At once clever, ingenious pretty and fine woman
It Spa she occasoned many unhappy attachments;
among others, the Duke of L, young and
handsome Nobleman Of the court of France, be-

had found favourable moment one morning at the
breakfast at Nauxhall, Madame de Rechtereu
not on that occasion seated by her husband
The duke and several other gentlemen, who had
the gaIlantry to serve the ladies' had not sat down
TO table, and his grace placed himself behind Ma
dame de Rechtereu; he entered into conversation
with her, but in an under tone and leaning over her
he whispered in her ear in low voice, formal de-
claraton of love
Madame de Rechtereu after listening quietly to
what he was saying, made this reply My Lord

EARTHQUAKE. AT MANILA.


BY the Hope, tho latest arrival from the
PHILIPPINES, VIC are concerned to hear that
these countries have lately been visited by i
dreadful earthquake and hurricane, which
have caused mach distress amongst the in
labitants and laid a considerable part Of the
City Of Manila in ruins.
Several Sigh shocks of the earthquake had
bccn felt throughout the island Of Lucouia
duIiaa the month Of October. On the @6tl
OF that month, a most severe shock WAS cx
perienccd in the town and suburbs Of Manil-
Ii, Which demolished several Of the church
es-one Of the bridges over the ri, and
many Of the private houses. i lOut smiles
above the town and close to the river, the
earth opened with tremendous explosion
and shortly afterwards shoals Of dead fish
were seen floating down the river into the
SEA All the respectable inhabitants Of Ma
liila removed into the country, and left tho
towa quite deserted. The military barracks
having been laid level with the grnt,nd; tents
were pitched for tile soldiers on plain 1T a
short distance. This cncampmeut was total
| ~ destroyed by the hurricane which came
on the lst. inst. The roofs were blown of
/ many of the remaining houses and six Of the
4 vessels in the OadS were stranded.
This IS the most severe earthquake which
has been experienced III Manila since tint
memorable one at 1896, and the loss Of hu-
4 man lives, although not correctly ascel tain-
ed, vds gcnerally believed to have been We.
~ considerable.

MIR. Owens Discourse on new system
Of Society.
Continued.

Placed as it now is before the public,
day ought not to be lost in stamping it with
it's proper terms of truth or fa.sehood.--Ihe
system now advocated can be of no cquivo-
cal character; it must be full Of benefit or OF
evil to YOU all; therefore bcseech you, toi
your sakes and for, the public benefit, to as
certain its value, that the people may know
whether have brought them vision to a
muse them, or a substantial blessing. 10
effect this object may be permitted to sug-
gest, that competent persons be appointed
under the name OF commissioners, or COM
mittee, or any other name, to examine the
whole subject, mere outline OF which, IN
this discourse, has been hastily and slightly
sketched. That after such exaJnination,
the parties appointed to investigate make a
report, for the satisfaction of the public,
whose interest are so deeply involved i'll the
result
In what has been said, l have cndeavcfed
to show, that the subject have introduced
is the most important that can engage the
attention of mankind; that the cause OF all
past and present evil in society is the notion
that there can be merit or demerlt IN any
belief whatever; that this error generates all
the bad passions, keeps them IN perpetual
activity, produces nothing but unhappness to

over the world.
have stated, also, that, by the undcs lat
ing constitution of our common nature, each
individual has hitherto, been formed by the
circumstances which have been allowed to
exist around him from birth to manhood; that
these circumstances have been uniformly op-
posed to our constitution, and consequent

only various degrees of vice and misery.
afterwards explained what appeared to me
TO be the real constitution of our nature and
state; that, when circumstances Shall be
iudciously combined by those who have ac-
uuired an accurate knowledge OF 1t, that
each individual of our species, without a
single exception, may be trained to become
yirtuous, intelligent, and happy, to adegree
much exceeding what has been experienced
under the old system of society in any part
Of the world. Aud thus far only time al
lows me to proceed on the present occasion,
That which requires yet to be cXplAincG,
TO enable the public to form right juds-
lnent of the entire system now advocated, is
q detail Of the circumstances which, III
combination, isto possess sufficient power TO
produce the extraordinary results winch /
have promised, and doveiopcment OF tue
means BY which, without injury to any one,
they can be carried without delay into nation

of it, and very soon from ignorance, aid all

Affairs i'll this country are not going on rs
well as might be. Great dissatisfaction and
discomfort prevail throughout the country in
consequence of some late laws, calculated to
re-establish the ascen;tency of the priests,
and Of the mobility. The law for the Emil
grca and Tie reduction of the interest will
both pass, and both arc very unpopular; but,
Us five siXths Of both Houses are interested,
