The New Bedford papers of Monday
contain the particulars of dreadful
earthquake, or succession of earthquakes,
which took place in Chill on the Goth of
February, by which the cities of Concep-
ton and Talcahuana were destroyed, to-
gether with great number of smaller
towns. The number of lives lost, so far
as ascertained, was 400 or 500; but it
was supposed the actual number was
much greater.
The Ship Coral, Captain Written,
arrived at this port on Saturday even-

tressing earthquake in and abou, the CT

the port of Talcahuana 9th of March.

Hail Storm.-This village and neigh
borhood were visited on the night Of
the 9th ult. (Friday,) with one of the
most terrific hail storms, ever witnessed
in this latitude. The day had been
rather warm for the season, and after
night came on, it began 10 cloud up,
with thunder and lightning. Appear
ance of gust grew more and more
threatening, until about bali past 10 o.
clock. A storm of wind and hail then
burst upon US with resistless fury
Glass windows gave way before it, as
though they had been wet paper, and
in twinkling where shiyeied into 8
thousand pieces. The wind was from
the North West, and although tbs
shower Of hail stones appeared to con-
tinue only for minute OF two, scarce

situation, was left in the whole village.

more than S, 900 panes Of glass broken
in town. Some chimneys were blown
down. and other damage done. The

Mother ofthe Kingdom, and their domes-
tics. He then few for legal advice, and
finding that the heavenly party had di-
rected their course to New York pursued
them with Gentle writ of HABEAs COR
pUs, and two or three unconyerted con-
stables.
The wheels of the holy ehariots
were traced to No. 8, in Third-street,
where the injured husband and the offs
cers of the law, demanded his wife. Mr..
Folger, who came TO the door, referred
the demand to Matthias, who came forth
with drawn sword and resisted its ex-
ecution. He said M. Lalsdall had no
wife, and that the woman whom he false
ly so called was ''too far off for him to see
her," He added that ''the minister who
married them was devil, that all mar
riages not made by himself, and according
to his doctrines, were of the devil; and
| that he had come to establish commun.
ity OF property, and of wives" All
search for Mrs. Laisdell proved in vain !;
Mr.. Pierson supplied her husband with
money to leave New-York, and he did
not again see his wife until she was
brought into the Justices court room, at
Westminster, by the writ of HABEAs COR
Pus. The interview between them was
on his part most affecting /; but although
her moral principles and conJugal affec-
lions had confessedly suffered from the
poisonous influence Of the hydra associa.
tons by which they had been surrounded,
her husband happily became assured
that the last irreparabe injury to her
honor and his peace, had not yet been
effected. But although fully satisfied of
this, and although she bitterly regretted
the temporary alienation of mind into
which she had been artfully misled, she
had nevertheless so far compromised her
sacred nuptial allegiance by some unlaw-
full pledge upon the affairs of the daiboli-
cal temple into which she had been be.
trayed, or felt the purity of her virtue SO
solled by the foul incense of the incanta
tons which had been exhibited around
her, that she would not resume her con-
jugal relation with her lawful husband,
until they had been again united by the
marriage rite. We state this upon the
personal authority of the minister by
whom that rite was performed.
Fooled by the strong arm of the law, in
the accomplishment of his object with re-
gard to his daughter, and probably now
grown somewhat Indifferent concerning
it, we pause in the memoirs Of this impos-
tor, to contlnue ana perhaps conclude
them in the next chapter.

I "The majority of the Post Office Commit
Tee of the Senate have this day reported
Mr.. Ewing and Mr. Sonthard were occupied
in reading it alternately until o'clock, when
the Senate adjourned without the reading be-
jnr finished. 1t is to be followed by coun.
ter report of the minority. The charges OF
corruption in regard to contracts, which were
advanced and partially demonstrated III their
report of last year, are most clearly and ably
substantiated in this, and the famous appeal
TO the people made by Major Barry is literal
w torn to pieces. They have proved by evl-
dcnce, ninutcly detailed, and OF character
that would satisfy any jury, not only that the
extra allowances far exceeded the services
proposed TO be rendered, but that in many
cases the services proposed were never rem
dered.
"Fhe famous forty dollar and ninety-nlne
dollar contract of Reeside, which he stated to
have been mistake Of his clerk, and should
have been Sl4OO and SI900-they bring Sc
veral witnesses to prove, was stated by Rec
side himself, after the contract was made, to
have been done for forty dollars and ninety
nine dollars. It was also proved that the
SI7,5OO extra allowance received by Rec
side and Slaymakcr on the contract between
Philadelphia and Piitsburg,-was never paid
over to the company of which they were
members, but put into their own Pockcts;-
that they refused to pay it over after it was
brought to light by the report of last year
aud the stockholders agreed to leave it to
committee to say whether it should be paid
over to them or not. This committee was
composed oftwo persons who were not stock
holders at the time, but have since become
stockholders an the company-thcy reported
that those gentlemen ought to keep the whole
of the money, aud gave as reasons that they
were at heavy expenses in getting petitions
signed, for the increased facilities on the
route, for travelling to and from Washington,
their expenses while there, and their being
obliged to Hve free nndb be generous"
