FRIGHTFuL DESTRUCTION BY EARTHQUAKES.
In the Dutch territories on the west coast
Of Sumatra, and in the Islands lying of it,
earthquakes Of excessive strength took place
in February aud March. accompanied by
violent commouons in the sea, the waters
retiring to great distance. and then rushing
back with frightlul force. sweeping every
thing before them. Great destruction was
everywhere caused. ard many lives lost. la
the Islands, however. the effect OF these
natural phenomena were most marked. On
the ISLAND Of Mas military post was com
pletely swept away by the sea, and several
Of the garrisons destroyed. A gunboat lying
in the harhor WAS torn from her anchors and
thrown high upon the shore. On the island
of Simo almost the whole Of The houses we're
destroyed, and, out Of population Of abOu I
eleven hundred, nearly eight hundred per

ed ID other parts d the dependencies. In

The Hillsborough recorder. [volume] (Hillsborough, N.C.) 1820-1879, 1862-07-23

Richmond, July 10.
The New York Herald's money article Of
the 10th says, the excitement in the gold
and exchange market continues undated.
Gold opened in the morning at one hundred
and seventeen and half, then fell to one
hundred and sixteen, afterwards began to
rally at second board, sold at one hundred
and sixteen and closed at that bid. Bills on
London 1884.
The advance in gold and bills has led to
remarkable activity in merchandise. People
are shipping 10 Europe everything which can
be bought. Every one who owes anything is
sending goods TO Europe TO pay the debt;
Others are shipping on speculation, relying
on the premium on their exchange for profit
The Herald says the advance in bills will
nearly annihilate import trade. The premi.
um on gold is in fact just SO much additional
customs duty levied on foreign goods; and
as the duties were nearly prohibitory before,
this will render them absolutely 50.

News from Ea.t Tennessee.

"A private letter to us from Knoxville,
dated the 2lst inst, says The Lincoln
army Is within ten miles of Cumberland
Gap. The mountain, it is thought, will be
penetrated at other points and the gap at
tackled on both sides. The present ap-
prOach is probably mere feint, while the
great force of Eastern Kentucky will pen
citrate into East Tennessee and other places.
Our scouts tell us that General Thomas, at
Beech Groye) Fishing creek, has 5000
pack mules with which to transport sup
plies over the mountains. We are send
ing forward requirements with the great
est possible despatch, but We have no tents,
and the loss at Nashville 1 presume to be
irreparable.
