Fischer visited Jeddo in 1922. The entrance
into it, notwithst tanding the absence of car
riages, reminded him, from the noise and the
throng of people, of the commercial port of
London. The shops had signs, as in Europe,
and the goods were exhibited from the doors
and windows under the charge of boys. who
rivaled each other in calling by loud cries the
attention of purchasers. Long before enter
ing the suburb Sinegawir, the Dutcii visitors
found themselves in the midst of a vast
crowd, moving along broad streats paved it
the sides ami lined with houses regularly
built, and many Of great size. From the sub
urb to their hotel, which was in the imme-
diate vicinity of the imperial palace, it was
two hours walk and as the palace was said
to occupy space of half mile dialnttar in
the middle of the city, Fischer estimated the
distance across the whole city at five or six
hours walk at an ordinary step, which, at
the most moderate calculation, would be
from twelve to fiften miles.
1t is evident from these accounts which
60 to confirm the other and more particular
ones of Thunb'rg and Krompfer-of whom
the first visited Jedlo in l778 and the latter
in 1870, and who both, especially the latter.
have furnished many highly curious details
of their visits--that Jeddo is a very popu-
lous city, and that such a catastrophe as a
violent earthquake, would b. likely to BE- at
tended with u great destruction of property
and of life. Indeed, if we suppose the sea
to have rushed up the bay of Jaddo, as it did
into the harbor Of Simoda during the pre-
vious earthquake, so as to have partially
overhowed the city, the destruction Of even
thirty thousand lives would not be improba

The murder of Brown, in Kansas, will b..
remembered as one of the bloodiest outrages
yet committed during the struggle in that
territory. Brown was from Brownsville
Cass county, Michgan. The following let
ter from his bereaved wife has been publish
ed in Michigan paper:
LEAvENwoRTH CITY, K. t., Jan. 25, 1856.
MY DEAR FATHER never expected to be
callei to write to you under so great aff1ic-
ton. My dear husband has been very ac-
tive in the cause of liberty ever since we
came into the territory His bold and man
Y course won the respect and confidence of
the friends of free state, and he was cleo
ted member of the legislature. On the
other hand the hatred of the pro-slavery par
ty was very strong against him. He was en-
gagged in the defense of The city Of Lawrence
during the war IN that region. II also, with
two or three others, rush d into the midst of
IA mob and rescued d free state man they were
cruelty batting. On the l7ih inst. he, with
several others, went two miles to attend an
election; an armed mob thought TO break up
the election, but were repustd. The next day
my husband and his friends were coming
homa when they were met by large band Of
armed men, who stopped them and made them
prisoners. They were all carried back to the
place of election and there The others were
let 90. out tnay were determined 10 XIII h1m
and then some of them fell upon him with
a hatchat, and thus in cold blood murdered
him. One blow struck on the eyebrow and
another inflicted deep wound in his left
temple. Thy then put him in wagon and
brought him hom, in the night. By this time
he was in a dying state--ha was not able TO
tell us much about his cruel treatment. He
said they bat him like dog. He said 81
am not afrail to de; if have done wrong in
any way, hope God will forgive me die
in good cause; am sorry to part with you
and our little child, but want you to meet
me in heaven!" He breathed his last the
sam night, and on the next Sabbath was bu-
ried. One Of the members of the legislature
has told me that he intends to have that bo-
dy pass bill to erect monument over his
grave as martyr for liberty. As soon as

On the l5lI of last month, at night, seve
raj severe shocks Of an earthquake were felt
in San Francisco. The vibrations of the earth
lasted about thirty seconds, and walked every
person in the city. Bsdsteads placed on cas-
tors were rolled across the floor, doors were
wrenched from their hinges, large iron safes
were moved out Of their places, walls of
buildings were cracked, clocks stopped, and
other damage done, but no lives lost, although
every house in the city was swayed to and
fro. The shocks were felt throughout the
most part Of the state.
There are two theories respecting the cause
Of earthquakes. lst. The igneous theory );
which maintains that this earth was once d
molten fl 'ry ball and that its interior is still
a fiery mass, and is somatimas caused to gem
crate waves, which prodnce oscillations on
the earth's surface. 81. The electric theory !;
which attributes the shocks to disturbed mag
netic action in the crust of the globe-that
the shocks are nothing more than powerful
magnetic shocks
As earthquakes are local, those who dis
pute the igneous theory assert that if the i'll
terror of the earth were a molten mass, and
earthi iuakes were caused by waves Of this
fluid, then the oscillations would BE- fell
equally strong on every part of the earth'S
crust Scientific American.

A MATRIMONIAL LOTTERY. "A young lady,
pretty and we'll educated, residing in the ar
rondissment of Poitiers, France, has con-
ceived the idea of putting herself up in lot

francs each, and to the fortunate winner she
will give herself and the 300. 900 francs by
way of dowry. The lady has attached some
very prudent conditions to the purchase Of
tickets. She will only sell them to persons
whom she may think will suit her, and in
order to ascertain that point, she exacts a
half an hours conversation with each appli-
cant. There is no limit of age imposed, and
more than one ticket may be taken by one
person The lottery will BE- drawn on the
I25.h of November next, at the Mayors Off :e

whose name forms the caption of this notice is
one of the few modern physicians whose appl-
cation to his profession and devotion to the az
fcted, render him alike an ornament to the
one and benefit to the other. A Hungarian
by birth, he sought with Kossuth to place his
country among the nations of the EARTH beyond
the oppressors rule, that her sons might re-
joice in the practice of those preceptS which
are alike our glory and our pride. In his efforts
SO to do, he has reaped the reward of Intellectual
resistance to oppression, and "a home and a
country know him no more" Apart, however,
from his claims upon our consideration

pacity which he brings entitlc him to public
confidence, to the exclusion of those who pos
sess neither the one the other. As a gentle
man his character is untarnished as a physi-
