The City Greatly injured and Considera bic
loss ofLJe.
The New Orleans Bee derives from the
Vera Cruzano of the 18th inst, the following
account Of an awful earthquake which desc
lated the city OF Mexico OH the 9Th inst:
At the moment we write, says the Sigld of
the 9Th, the inhabitants Of the capitol of the
republi C, are still under the influence of the
horrors excited by the earthquake ofyesterday
the disastrous effects Of which we are still
imperfectly acquainted with.
Yesterday, at So minutes past 3 o'clock,
p. Nj. the oscillations began, slight at first,
and then stronger. The direction of the mo-
ton appeared to be North and South. 1t
lasted about two minutes. The shocks were
terrible nothing like them was ever expert
enced before, and the condition Of the build
ings, too surely proves the absence Of all
exaggeration.
We were by chance, upon the great square
at the time, aud we witnessed a spectacle not
easily forgotten. In an instant the multitude,
but a moment previous tranquile and ~lisiless,
were upon their knees, praying to the AL
mighty, and counting with anxiety the shocks
which threatened 10 convert the most beau
tifnl city in the New World into a vast thea
tire of ruins. The chains surro unding the
portico, were violently a~gitated; the flags of
the pavement yawned open; the trees bent
frightfully; the buildings and lofty ediGces
oscillated to and fro the immense arrow which
crowns the summit Of the cathedral, vibrated
with astonishing rapidity. At So minutes
past ,, the movement had ceased.
1t is impossible ct to ascertain the extent
| Of destruction Not a house or a door but
/ bears the marks of this terrible calamity
MANY of them are cracked and terrible injur-
ed; others are tottering, and others entirely
fallen. San Lorenzo La Misericordia, Tom
peatk, Zapo and Victoria streets, and the
Grand street, have particularly suffered The
acqueducis are broken in several places
The bridge of Tezonilale is demolished. The
Hospital of ST Lazarus, is in ruins, and the
churches of SanLorenzo, and San Ferdinand,
greatly injured. The magnificent chapel Of
ST. Teresa no longer exists. At the first
shock, the cupalo, and building Of DISTINGUISHING
strength and great beauty, fell, and was soon
fello wed by the vault beneath the tabernacle,
the tabernacle itself.
Fortunately all those in the church so
much frequented, succeeded in escaping
At 8 O'Clock last evening seventeen persons
ings and carried to the Hospital.
At three quarters past six, and a quarter
past seven, two more shocks were felt. They
were however slight and occasioned nothing
but a temporary renewal ofteiror.
The authorities did every thing that zeal
and humanity could suggest, to carry help TO
victims, and restore the acqueducts which
furnish water to the city.

HANDSOMELY DONE.

A letter writer from Lexington KY, 10 a
gentleman in this place, speaking of Mr..
Clay, says:
"He (Mr. Clay) has been largely in debt,
edness, (amounting TO near S30,000,) was
cancelled, and his notes delivered 10 him
from Bank The great man was deeply
affected and asked who had lone this thing.
we know not was The reply, the money
was deposited to your credit and your notes
are cancelled. II need not concern you who
did it; it was not your enemies" [Somey-
riM Reporter.
U-As this matter has been made the
subject Of invidious comment in journals hos
tile TO Mr.. Clay, WI shall not now violate
any confidence by stating the facts more
clearly. The truth is this: Mr.. Clay, who
has not, for many years, incurred nor owed
a debt on his own account, but had involved
himselfby endorsing for a relative who be-
came deeply embarrassed and failed. The
debts came upon Mr.. Clay to such an ex-
tent that his property must have been swept
away to pay them. The circumstances
came to tie knowledge of some Of Mr.. Clay's
Political friends and admires (few of whom
knew him personally: } and they quietly sub
scribed the cum necessary to relieve him
from embarrassment. The first lniimation
he had of it was by the return ofhis Cancelled

ACCIDENT ON LAKE CHAMPLAIN.

We learn from Mr.. Muason Of bristol, who
came from the south yesterday morning that
the Steamer Whitehall, Capt. Lalhrop, was
run into by the Francis Saltus, near fort
TT' and seriously injured, having one Of her
warehouses nearly destroyed and many of
her iimbers broken. The two steamers
started in company from Whitehall. sailed
under a full head cfsteam, ~crowding each
other occasionally until arriving near'Lara-
bees landing," when as the Saltus was
about passing the Whitehall, by some unac-
cnuntable means the inter steamboat, swung
round across the channel, and The concus-
sion took place. The injured boat hauled up
to the landing and the Saltus proceeded on
her course. This matter will doubtless be
investigated.
The opposition spirit is getting TO be as
wild and reckless on the calm face OF our So
Der little lake as on the Hudson. We have
anticipated an accident of some kind for
some time, and from what can be gathered
ofsteamboat matters we are inclined TO fear
this is only "the beginning of Irouble."-N-
Termonter.

The Madisonian at Washington saws:

"We understand from the capitol, that
seats for the expected Members of Congress
from Florida and Iowa are being made. We
think those from Texas, also, might have
sents made for them. and thot the stuff for
two chairs for the representatives of Cali
fornia might be got out, and charged to the
account Of constructive mileage"
Iowa and Florida both have seats already
in the House, and Iowa has resolved that she
won't come into the Senate. Texas is still
out, Il there is no certainty other coming al
all. We presume California will wait ill
after we get Texas. Let that chair-stuf lie
and season awhile, il you please Morn.

the above heading will seem very strange
indeed yet it is not only true; but II is
equally a fault that the meeting vas called
by flaming h~andbills, posted about the streets
on Sunday morning, calling the 'Conven-
ton together at one OF the public halls, in the
most public street Of this great city. AT the
head OF this movement, apparently, is Rob-
ert Owen, of Lenark, the so called Socia-
list, a mar OF education, intellectual culture,
age, and experience and pity indeed il is
tina: one, capable of doing so much good in
Ais day and generation, should end his iuiu-
enee in the promotion of such a stupendous
social evil as IEfidelity.

Hon. Branch II. Archer, the Father OF the
Texas Revolution.
The above is an excellent portrait OF this distin
gulshed citizen of Texas. Branch L. Archer, is
native Of Powhattan county, virginia-issnow fifty
seven years of age. lKe was the son and grandson
of two distinguished heroes Of his name, of our re-
vclution Of 70 He was for many years leading
member Of the Virginia Legislature, and filled ma
nyoher Offices of trust and honor in his native State'
and always with signal credit to himself. He COM
manded in our war of 1872, one OF the most efi-
cient cavalry corps from his section.
In 1890, he emigrated to Texas, with the avowed
purpose of revolutionlzng that country and bring
ing her back to the bosom OF her kindred from whom
he always believed she had been most unjusty and
unconstitutionally severed. H9f
On the 18th December, 1881, at public meeting
Of the citizens of Austns colony, assembled in the
town of Brazoria, with perhaps not more than two
or three others to back him, he was the first man IN
that country found bold enough, openly, to preach
the doctrine of liberty and disenthralment from
Mexico. This ball, thus put in motion with a te-
merity which awed the passive multitude OF that
new community, continued to roll, and gathered IN

its course lean minority OF bold men, who did
then, and will hereafter, confrola majority. Dr. A.
was always foremost in this measure, which in
few years has grown to be the great political ques-
tion of the age. With eloquence in good keep
ing with his personal and moral flrmness, we find
him before the walls of San Antonio in 1885, urging
hsfellow citizens to charge the enemy. Then we
see him presiding the first Republican Conven-
ton of her people then in 1896, we listened with
wonder and delight to his spirit stirring appeals to
the citizens of the United States, in company,
co-commissioner with the lamented Generals, Aus
tin and Wharton, invoking aid to a cause in which
they were sworn to succeed or perish; then we find
him the first speaker of the first constituted con-
gress, and subsequently the fearless and able Sec
retary of War and Navy under President Lamar.
All the stations he filed with patriotic single
ness of purpose, dignity of manner, and chlv-
airy of character, which universally won for him
in Texas, the envable appellation of the " old Ro-
man.
Such man Texas can never cease to revere,
while the friends of liberty, every where, will
award him place in the list of the loftiest patriots
of America
