AUSTRIAN PREPARATIONS FOR WAR.
"A letter from Verona of February
23d, says: "Austria is preparing for
war, and the colossa, proportions Of her
preparations lead to the belief that she
expects formidable contest. For more
than a week past, steamers have arrived
at Venice with enormous cargoes Of mu-
milton, which has been at once sent on
to Padua, which, it appears, will be the
basis Of the strategic operations. All
along the line Of rail from Dolo to Pa
Qua are to be seen rifed cannon Of recent
fabrication. There are enough of them,it
is said, to mount about twenty batteries.
They are 6eld-pieces, but some are heavy
ordnance for preaching; both we're cast
in the arsenals At Vienna, where tae
works are carried on night and day.
Here we are still digging and repairing
the moats around the old Notifications.
They have just placed the new rifled
bronze guns, and removed the iron siege
guns. They are building fort at Pa
ron, and strengthening those recently
finished at Montorson and near the
Church of the Madonna di Campagna.
At Peschira they are working in all
haste on the construction of batteries on
the Malusina side, on that OF San Yer
g:lio and Of Cisano. Provisions are be.
ing stored up in the forts; they have
even gone to Milan and purchased corn
and forage for the Austrian army. We
believe that the agents of some import
ant houses in our city have been to Mi
Ian for no other reason. Our towns are
deserts you must know that better than
ourselves. Arrests and perquisitions

The New York correspondent of the
the Chicago Press states that Indian
hemp is used in large quantities in the
former city, and is rapidly taking the
place Of opium among those who have
given Themselves up to the slavery Of
nervines and stimulants. The hemp or
hasheesh, has . far more subtle and in
tense power Of elevating the mental fac
ulties, and proportionally more danger
ons. Its unhappy devotee receives no
warning until completely enslaved by
its mystic influence. The writer says
that there are hundreds Of persons in
New York who are constantly under
its Influence, and the demand is incrcas-
ing everv day.

Our readers must remember that the above
statement Is from grave leading article in one of
the first class London journals. And yet how ab-
surdly false is every word Of it! Who in the
United States ever heard of such a law being de-
manded by the South, Or of any similar law having
been ever dreamed of Where did the News pick
up its information2 We surely know Of nothing
that could have led the editor into such errors, and
must conclude that he has. been abused by some
vagabond American Abotionist in London, who,
to add to the foreign sentiment against slavery,
does not hesitate to manufacture a lie out Of whole
cloth. More than three-fourths of the hostility to
Southern institutions that exists at the North has
been created by lies. The wretched fanatics are
now operating upon Europe with the same in

If the Falstaf of Hackett were not familiar to the

superiority as a whole, simply because there is
another FalstaR on the stage which surpasses his.
We doubt if there is any other actor who can come

How a Chaplain Tried to Make Speech
and Failed.


The Boston correspondent Of the New Bedford
Standard gives the following narrative Of the scene
which occurred in the Massachusetts, Senate one
morning last week. After the tribnlation Of five
ballots. the Senate had effected the choice Of
Chaplain, in the person Of Rev. Joseph Marsh, of
Sandwich:
On Friday morning the Senate met according to
adjournment, tile Chaplain came within the bar,
the President arose and made the usual proclama-
tion viz: : "A prayer will now be offered by the
Reverend Chaplain Of the Senate to which the
Senators responded BY standing in their places and
assuming a devotional attitude. The Chaplain then
took his position. and proceeded Immediately to
astoand everybody by saying. II should like to
make few remarks before pray-I shall be very
brief.i' This modest request meeting with no re-
sponse, there was an awkward silence in the cham
ber for the space Of two minutes, during which
time the President maintained the most reverental
attitude, while the Senators were yariously en-
gagged in staring, winking, oging and holding their
tongues--a few, overcome by contending emotions,
dropped into their seats, presently the determined
Chaplain broke the silence by putting the question
direct, thus: +" Can go on with my remarks, Mr..
Presdent2n Y and the perplexed President, after
looking around the chamber at the Senators, the
revolutionary drum, dim with the dust of years.
at the portraits Of Rantoul and the old Governors
answered. and this is what he said:
Tile chair hears no motion-no objection being
made, however. the chaplain may speak" Then
out spoke that artless minister, who began by re-
ferrng to certain remarks to which he had listened
outside, in regard to the chaplaincy-he had been
panied 70 hear several persons refer to the office
Of chaplain as an empty, formaty, etc, and that
individuals had advised him that bfeyity wonld be
desirable feature in his prayers; he desired to re-
buke all such irreyerence, and proceeded to speak
Of the efficacy Of prayer generally, and then Of the
antiquity OF the institution religious exercise,
but the President thinking, perhaps, Of his own adj
dress taking the chair two days before, when he
said, Let us remember that this chamber is sacred
to the uses of legislation and seeing that his in
dulgenee was being abused, suddenly rose, brought
down his gaye with decided bang, and exclaimed
thus: :. The Chair will remind the Reverend Chap
lain that il is quite unusual if not without preee
dent, for any person not member to address the
Senate. II the Chaplain desires to communicate
with the Senate it will be proper for him to do so
in writing (bang No. y z A prayer will now be
offered by the Reverend Chaplain Of the Senate =
and thus ended this solemn farce, which, it is safe
to say, is without precedent in our history.

The Recent Eaathaualse.

The Charleston Mercury furnishes the following
additional Information regarding the phenomena
attending tile earthquake experienced in that city
on the evening of the 10th
No section of the city seems to have been ex-
empted, although some buildings were more
affected than Others their foundations and sta
bility differed Rumbling noises were heard and
decided electric odors were pereeptibe. As in all
such cases, many tales are told which disappear on
investigation.
The most ignifcant phenomenon, if it can be
attributed to the earthquake, occurred at the Ar
tesan well. 1t is well known that the city has been
tubing the well with l0l inch iron pipes. On the
3Ist day of last March this tubing had reached the
depth of $40 feet below the surface, and there it
has since remained. The excavation or boring, six
inches in diameter, had been previously carried
down to depth of $50 feet. The utmost resources
of the mechanics have been expended in enteavors
to remove the obstruction and sink the tubing
further, but all in vain. Platforms have been
erected and large amounts of iron and wood, weigh
ing several tons, have repeatedly been placed upon
it. but it would not and did not settle tile breadth
of u hair. On Thursday, during the afternoon, pre-
vions to the earthquake, the tubing commenced
settling, very slow at first and then, with per-
ceptible slide, the upper end, which had projected
about four feet above the surface Of the ground,
disappeared, leaving the superintendent weight,
which had been resting upon it all day, upon the
ground. After removing the rubbish and sounding
for the top Of the tubing it found to have gone
down a distance of thirty feet.
That this sinking was caused by the same agency
as the subsequent quake, we do not say, but leave
the tracing Of their connection to the more seien-
tfe and Wel-ntormed. Certainly the connection
| is intimate enough to attract attention.
In the adjacent country, the incoming trains over
the railroads, from all directions, have reported the
| prevalence of the phenomenon.
| An intelligent and ohsergant subscriber at Was
samasaw, st. James Goose Creek, writes as fol-
1 lows:
M. Eltor-I am writing you now at halfpast
/ ., 2. NJ, Thursday, January -. At five minutes
before this evening, heard rumbling noise to-
wards the west, and, in moment after, felt Sc
we're shock, #z=
The house was well shaken. A few minutes
after sunset heard similar noise in the same di-
4 rection, but felt no shock.
hone it will be no worse, and will look to the
Mercury to see if it occurred elsewhere.
The Columbia South Gafolinian Of Friday says:
4 A slight shock of an earthquake was felt in this
vicinity about o'clock last evening. IN our office
the effect was pereeptible in shaking of the build
ing for about twenty seconds The shock was toe
slight to do any damage beyond causing sigh
degree of alarm to several persons i'll various parts
/ of the CITY.
