violent shock Of an earthquake was felt
in San Francisco on the morning Of Feb'y 10.
The Alta California says
The people were aroused from their sleep,
and hundreds rushed rranucnuinto the streets
in their nigh, clothes. The shock lasted
some twenty-five seconds, aud preceded BY
rumbIing Srund like distant thunder. No
material dnmnge was done TO property. The
fire wall fell from one brick stare; the plaster
ing was more or less cracked in a good many
buildings; and in some instances slight assures
are created in brick walls. A great many
timid people were terribly frightened for
time, but they were soon led to believe that
shock of which we have any account in San

gus:--N. O. TrHe Dcita.
THE downward course of Mr.. Wilmot as a
politician, should be warning to all who con.
suit expediency instead Of principle. Ten
years ago, lie was the most promising and for.
midable man of his age in the Democratic
party in Pennsylvania, Since then he has
boxed the compass until we now find him
Know Nothing AboIirionist, playing second
fiddle to the very men he formerly despised.
The Montrose Democrat, COR several months,
paid considerable attention to Mr. Wilmot's
political manpuvering, and proved very con.
clusiyeIy that he was not governed by honest
impulses in his various political lodges. To
this Mr., WiImot took exceptions, and appeal.
