quake I'm the Mediterranean.

Accounts from the Mediterranean
state that the earthquake at Malta, ON
the morning of the 18th of October,
seems tohave been moro violent than
at any other place. Upward of five
hundred persons have been buried in
the ruins, principally in the villages.
In the Island of Rhodes mountains
have fallen down into the plains be-
meath entire villages have been de-
stroyed, and not a house in town has
escaped damage. The loss Of life is
said to amount to some one hundred
souls. On the islands of Halki, Cas-
sos and Scarpento, the damages were
very considerable, and the victims
amount to one hundred and fifty
Marmarizzo, Daliani and neighbOring
villages, have likewise suffered but
at Alden, where its duration was fifty
seconds, and at Mytelene, the Dam
age was trifing; while at Bearout the
shock was very slight Letters from
Trebizond do not make mention of it

The Slave Trade.

The Black Republican journals have
worked themselves into an uncom-
Portable wiggle about what they call a
threatened re-opening Of the slave
trade, by the Democrats" There is
scarcely a paper of the opposition that
one month ago was bowling about
Kansas, which has not rung the chan
ges on this subject. We knew that
the Republican party was kept togeth,
er by the Kansas humbug and the
hope ofpublc plumber, and were some.
what puzzled to know what Is leaders
would invent to sustain it in its weak.
ness-...whatso ola potion they would
administer to keep its corrupt carcass
alive..--since peace has been restored
in Kansas and the people have con-
demned them to hunger and thirst af.
ter treasury pap for at least another
four years. Fortunately for them, two
orthree fre-eating papers ofthe South,
that for years have been doing their
utmost to keep alive the sectional
feeling there, Gust as the N. Y. Tri-
bune, Evening Post, and other aboli.
ton journals, have been operating
here. in the North )-proposed the re-
opening ofthe slave trade; for the ben.
eft ofSouthern interests. In the des-
perate condition Of the Republicans,
this was real god-send, and the way
they have used the articles of the
Charleston Standard and Mercury,
illustrates their method of making the
most out Of little, in q very happy
manner. AS between the nullifiers
of the South ard the Abolitionists of
the North, the sectionalists of both
acknowledgements care not a whit
how many bones they furnish each
other to pick nor how many nuts to
crack but they are unwilling to faith
er the acts Of either. The people Of
the South do not want to reopen the
slave-trade for the very simple reason
that the slavo.market would become
glutted and their slave property, con-
sequently be vastly deprecated. Fur
thermore, they were the first to pro-
pose q discontinuance of the slave
trade; and, but for Abolition New
England, the shippers and merchants
OF which wanted to make more money
by the internal traffic, it would have
ceased long before it did. At the in
stance Of commercial New England, a
clause was inserted in the Constitution
Withholding from Congress the power
10 prohibit tile slave-trade before the
year 1903. New England amassed q
great portion of her wealth in the
slave trade. Doubtless hundreds of
her sons who have been bawling for
Free Kansas and Fremont, are in
tdebted to the traffic in human tlesh,"
as they delight to term it, for liberal
education and the creature comforts
which they now enjoy.
The Charleston Standard and the
Mere,qy, and the New Orleans DEL
ia, have never been deemed organs
by the National Democracy. They
are to the Southern wing Of the party
what the N. Y. Evening Post, 'ca8 to
the Northern wing--a sort of ezcres-
cence, for the radiance of which the
party ought to be thankful.
The Richmond Enquirer declares
itnever advocated the revival of the
African slave, trade, except in strain
Of irony. So ends the chapter.
