nprAnFu1 EARTHQUAKE AT MARTINloUE.-
By the Pauline, which sailed from St, Pierre, in
the Island Of Martinique, on the 18th ultimo
information is brought, giving the particulars Of
a terrible earthquake which visited that island
on the / lth utimo, and spread havoc and ruin
over the whole French colony. The vessel
having left the day after the disaster, the whole
extent Of the damage had not been ascertaned:
The devastation, however, was immense. Ac-
counts were coming in describing the destruction
Of buildings, The laying waste Of plantations,
andnthe swallowing uD and burial Of many hmi
lies, OF the towns Port Royal appears to have
been the greatest sufferer. Numbers Of build
;nps were demolished, and multtules Of lives
lost. The last shock Of the earthquake left
scarce building standing, and the whole city
NAV be said to be overw hemed. Four hundred
persons, it is supposed, were buried under the
ruins or these, three hundred had been with
drawn from under the wreck and rubbish; and
excavations were going OH to extend relief tn
others in the same situation In the town Of
st. Pierre the shock was not SO severe as at
Port Royal The commotion lasted about five
minutes. Several houses were thrown down,
and many shaken into shattered and touerins
condition. The number Of tives lost was very
sn,ll compared with The destruction at other
ro;nts. The Governor Of Martinique had issued
h;s ,,oclamation, calling upo the citizens to sue.

Chronicle, dated
WASHINGTON, Feb. Z, 1889.
Mr.. Clay has, this day, made the most bril-
liant, the NEST commanding, and the noblest ora
ton that he ever delivered in his life. His sub
jvct was .3boHtion; and never before was it
'reatrd III such manner. He placed the evils
and dangers Of the abolition schemes in strong
and vivid point Of view; cleally demonstrated
that Congress has not the poner to comply with
the prayer of the abolition petitions, and made
A warm glowing and impressive appeal TO the
country, and to the ahnIilonSts themselves,
agains, their parricidal doctrines and movements.
He spoke about two hours, aud to the most
crowded, as well as the most attentive, suditory
that has, this session, been assembled in the Sc
nate. The whole House was present, and the
galleries were thror2ed with ladies. 1t was
known last nigh, HAT Mr.. Clay was to speak on
this subject, and the galleries were thronged to
Overlooking a, an early hour. Every body al
most is warm in praise of this noble and patriotic
rf1n,t. 1t viii produce all impression on the
public mind that cannot easily br ef1aced. Mr..
Calhoun was in extacies, and, as soon as Mr..
Clay flushed, rose and expressed his delight and
admiaio Of the sentiments expressed by him
on this subject, and remarked that he considered

AUTHORITIES FOR OUR CREED.
:. D. JON ES,
Recording Secretary.

1t is very natural and universal practice when
we would establish a principle, or secure an OBJ
iect, to look up and adhuce the opinions of those
who, for their wisdom, intelligence, tried patri-
otism, or vituous life, claim as public benefac-
tors the most respectful consideration and conf
dence, ii not unqualified assent Of their country
men, and the more SO, according as the opinions
and free from the influence of party.
Hence il is that we have sought for precedents
in favor Of our views. And it must be confess
ed that so far as honor office a,t. public service
60 the authorities we call to our support hold
an elevated rank; all Of whom have been homo
red by their fellow citizens with the exalted Of
flee Of President Of the United States.
It is true that Mr.. Jeifrrsons opinions in the
earlier stage cf his political career were opposed
10 us. But, whether these early opinions were
advocated will, the view of acquiring popularity
or from erroneous impressions which time would
remedy. we rejoice that these opinions were
nevertheless changed, and this change took place
anler circumstances emitting it to implicit conf
dence as beiag the honest deliberate convictions
Of its author. His country had admired and
sanctioned his politics, and had settled down in
the Republican creed. His race was nearly
run, and less sagacity than he possessed, could
see that his deeds would De enshrined in the
memory Of his countrymen, and that he had
won with them an Immortality OF honor.
He would thus be disposed to retract opinions
hastily formed or proved erroneous by expert
ence: and that there could be no necessity or in
ducement to adhere to them for the mere pur-
pose of being thought consistent; except we al
low that that great Statesman thought ii more
important TO leave behind him character for
consistency, than the honest sentiments of his
heart, as The last best benedirtion Of father to
his childsen-a patriot to his country.
Concurrent opinions Of such men have great
weight, and as they may be considered as given
to Us in the language Of prophetic warning, they
cannot receive TOO early or too deep delibera-
ton 1t is re,na, kabe fact, that while our
Government was only the beginning of an expe.
riment, the great experimenters had the foresight
70 anticipate evil from foreign influence, and
that while in the act Of setting an example of a
free elective, confederated Republic, they guard
I'd their descendants against the consequences Of
that foreign influence, by prudent, cautious and
la.her]y admonitions. Let us not SO lightly es-
TEEN that wisdom, foresight and patriotism, as
10 fall into the destruction against which they
so timely warned US, or we shall receive all the
miseries that our criminal disregard will SO rich
!y deserve.
