have been made against him. Instead of
turning hundreds out of their homes be-

persons, who, as he supposed. might bring

that he is a kind and induIgent landlord.

THERE was severe shock of an earth
quake throughout the Republic of Chilli,
on the 9Th of October The duration of
the shock was four to FIVE minutes, and
considerable damage was done in the city
of Copiapa, where several buildings were
overthrown- At the port of Caldera, the
sea resreated several times from the coast,
leaving beach of one hundred and fifty
yards, which caused panic amongst the
inhabitants, who flew afrighted to the
neighboring hills; fortunately the sea re-
turned to its place without any violence,
and did not occasion the least disaster.

We have already stated that the Re
Publicans of Washington Co, Pa. held
convention in the Court House, in Wash.
ingtOn, on last Monday evening Various
reports appear in the papers of that place
respecting the harmony and uDanimIty of
the meeting Some difference of opinion
undoubtedly existed, regarding the choice
of that county for the Presidential candi-
daey and also as to the Governorship, but
otherwise the meeting was an enthusiastic
and encouraging one. Bingham, of the
Pittsburg Journal was on had and made
speech, though somehow, he failed to per-
suade the staunch people of our neighbor-
ing county to have either Judge John N.
Read for President, or Ex-Congressman
Thos. n Howe for Governor, for both of
whom he is an ardent advocate
On the subject of the Presidency, the
convention passed the following resolution:
RssoIred, That in Gen. Simon Cameron
we recognize the man who. bv his long
and untiring devotion to Pennsylvania in
terests and the best interests of the coun-
try, can carry Pennsylvania lriUmphantly
in lS60-that we cordially recommend
him for nomination as the Republic
can candidate for President by the Ma
tional Convention, and that our dele
gates to the State Convention are hereby
instructed TO vote for such measures in that
body as will best tend to secure his nomi-
nation by the National Convention
The resolution was not passed without
some opposition, several of the members
mentioning and expressing very decided
preferences for Seward, Mclean, Critten-
den and others.
The Hon. Andrew C. Curtain, of Lu-.
zerne county, seems to have been the
choice for Governor, as appears by the
following. which was passed by the con-
vention:
Rssolred, That entertaining profound
sense of the distinguished services render
ed to the Commonwealth by its late able
Secretary of State, Hon. Andrew G. Cur
tain. and having the highest confidence in
his integrity and fidelity to Republican
principles, we regard him as an eminentlv
suitable candidate for Governor in 1860.
and therefore instruct our delegates to the
State Convention to support him for that
position as the choice of Washington
county
With regard to Metropolitan candidate
for Governor of Pennsylvania, we, of
course, have nothing to do But it seems
somewhat strange to US that Washington
county should pass by Hon. T. N, Howe, of
the adjoining county of Allegheny, who is
a man every way qualified for the office,
and is besides Republican of uudoub,ed
loyalty, and run away into the other end
of the State for candidate Mr.. Curtain
is, VIC believe, very excellent man, but
why should Howe rhceive the ego by
from his next neighbors?
The convention appointed Geo. V. Law
renee and John Hall Representative Dele
gates, and NJ. NJ Brockman, Senatorial
Delegate to the State Convention mseting
in Harrisburg on the 22d of February
next.

The Washington Constitution says that
the government showed great aIacrity in
ordering forces to the scene of disorder as
soon as it received news of the peril of
Brownsville. We do not know how vigo-
rous it was in ordering, but it will be diff
cult to make people understand how there
was much energy and promptness in the
war department, when it is notorious that
six weeks after the beginning of the out
break not United States soldier had
reached the unhappy town. We hope,
however, that this wretched affair is draw
ing to close, and that it will not become
the occasion of grave troubles either to
Mexico or the United States. We are
willing to be very charitable in our judg-
ments of the President about the whole
matter, if he resists the present temptation
to carry out his plan of enlarging our do
main at the expense of Mexico.

Is the annals of England, the Eliza
bethean age stands very much as does the
Augustan age in the history of Rome.
The Englishman never points to that era
but with pridc-certainly he has ample
grounds for pride. During that illustrious
reign, there lived many of those great
men whose names are known By almost
every one who has ever even heard of the
influences of philosophy, religion, politics
or literature. There were Spenser, Ben
Jonson and Shakespeare; there were Ba-
con, the greatest philosopher, and Coke.
the greatest lawyer: yet, strange as it
seems, both the meanest men of any age:
there was Burleigh, the long-trustcd and
sagaeious statesman Sir Francis Drake,
the first circumnavigator of the world;
Raleigh. the man whose genius was uni
versal, and whose courage and accomplish
ments made him the favorite OF even that
great age; and to these we might add a
hundred others. scarcely less renowned.
1t was in the times which produced
these remarkable names, that there lived
one, who. in all the parts of perfect man,
stands, we truly believe, conspicuously
above any other character presented in the
history of grand old England. 1t will be
easily understood that we refer to Sir

There is no kind of literature more inter
esting, more profitable, perhaps, especially
to young persons in the formation of their
characters, than Biography. Lives of
great men, - remind us how our own lives
may be made great. The life of such a
man as Sir Phillip Sidney presents the best
e1emplar of a truly noble character. that
can anywhere be found. By birth belong
ing to the nobility of England, his highest
nobility consisted in the virtue. temper
ance, and amiability of his nature-traits
which he exhibited to an extraordinary
degree, to the very last hour of his life
Naturally possessing a fine genius and
brilliant talents, he also became possessed
of the best education which the schools of
those days afforded The Latin and Greek
classics were particularly his delight and
and study. His first and chief literary
work, is romance justly celebrated for
the unsurpassed purity and excellence of
its style, called the Arcadia. Though writ
ten as prose, it is purely ideal compost
ton, fullOf the very finest poetical thoughts
Had we space we would like to present an
outline, with few specimens of this cele-
brated work. Sidney also composed seve-
ral poems, and considerable number of
sonnets, which also bear evidence of the
fine genius. and cultivated taste of their
author.
But it is not principally as literary man
that Sidney is celebrated. His genius and
learning, and noble birth are almost lost
sight of in contemplating him as a man
ofuntainted virtue, lofty honor, and heroic
bravery. Contemporary writer's, as Hume
observes, have described him as the most
perfect model of an accomplished gentle
man that could be formed even by the
wanton imagination of poetry or fiction
