CHEAP PosrAoE AND ADvEnTIsNG.-As striking instance
of the nducement which cheap postage affords for extern
sve correspondence and the free circulation through the
mails all parts of the country of business circulars adj
vertsements, &c. is presented in the extraordinarily
large postage bills of Messrs Egerton Bro exchange
brokers Of this city. They have paid to the Baltimore
post Office during the year 1882 total Of % for
postage probably the largest amount expended in that
way by any house in this city. Their postage bills
for the three last months Of the year. 1.-THE time in which
the law modifying the rates printed matter has
been in operation) follows: October $6l7.67;
November 1919 80 December $500 01indicating gra-
dual increase under that law Thus it is evident that
since the reduction Of the rates printed matter Messr
E. Bro induced more largely than circulate
through the mails the newspapers, &C. in which their
advertisements appear As this is thing which it is not
likely shrewd men would be guilty Of unless they
perenced corresponding advantage in their business
others may Judge for themselves Of the value of the ex
ample. In addition it would appear from all this that
had not the postage rates been reduced the bills Of csr
Z. Bro. would not have been large-thus exempI-
flying the sound utility of the principle Of cheap postage

THE EARTHQUAKE AT MANILA.

The journal of Commerce has been favored with
an official account Gin Spansh) of the earthquakes
experienced at the Philippine Islands, from the 10Th
of September last till the 18th of October The
narrative is dated October 18TH and was printed at
the Office of the Official Bulletin of the Islands Il con-
tains numerous particulars Of damage done to public
buildings in Manila, most Of which we're injured and
many Of them nearly destroyed The damage in the Pro-
vinces is also extensive particularly in the case Of
churches and other public buildings.
The first shock experienced at haf-pas six on the
evening Of September 10th the weather was entirely
calm murky and suocating The oscillations from
north to SOUTH rapid and violent much so that the
pendulum described Of 81 degrees The visitation
was announced by subterranean rumbing which being
accompanied by the cracking Of buildings the cries of
the inhabitants, and the falling Of cornices tiles &c.
carried terror to every heart 1t is impossible says the
narrative to describe what we suffered during those
ments The oscillation continued for nearly three min
utes; and they seemed as long as hours. The people
rushed frantic into the streets which, added to the late
Of the hour made the catastrophe more terrific The
uncertainty which existed was the greatest affection.
Fortunately Providence abated its wrath and after
little time tranquility began to return But it was Of
short duration At ten minutes past o'clock the same
evening another oscillation though less Violent and
again at " quarter past TO- H. and o'clock the fol-
lowing morning, the shocks were repeated with
less violence holding the minds Of the people in state
Of continual suspense
On the 18th there alarming tremblnps and they
repeated at frequent intervals until the 3Oth II
its wonted quiet notwithstanding that there were fresh
trembngs on the 10th, 1th and 18th instant And il
only now that we perceive what dangers have pass
ed through. Scarcely building remains unnjured and
consequently the damage is ncaculabe AS to personal
injuries, they are providentay limited to three killed
and wounded
We have said that the first shock lasted about three
minutes The index Of the pendulum showed the direc-
ton to be from north to SOUTH with inclination Of
to II degrees and this followed without inermis-
sion by various repdatory motions which almost stopped
the pendulum and afterwards made il describe circles
Afterwards the principal oscillations from north
east TO west southwest the index Of the pendulum
times marking the frightfu graduation Of AZ degrees.
The other shocks much less violent the pendulum
marking only "A degrees.
The thermometer stood at 23, and the barometer nj
ZsS2 The heat was sufocating. The wind during the
day had blown from the southwest and afterwards got
