writer beautifully remarks that
a mans mother Is the represent
alive to his maker. Misfortune
and mere crime set no barriers
between her and her son. While
his mother lives a man has a
friend on earth who will not de-
seri him when he is needy. Her
affection flows from pure foun-
tain, and ceases only at the
ocean of eternity.

FAILURE OF A COLONIZATION PROJECT.
1t will be recollected that in April last
the President made contract with Ger
tain responsible persons for the deporta-
ton of 500 persons of color for an island
on the southwest coast of Hsyti, and for
their colonization on favorable conditions.
But recently information has reached here
that these colonsts were badly provided
for, and many Of them died of disease,
while others fed to more desirable local
tiles. The Government, it is known, was
cautious and studious in making such ar
engagements as would eonduce to their ben
eft. In pursuance of the policy which
entered into the contract, an agent will
Immediately be dispatched to inquire
into the facts and report upon the
present condition Of affairs, in order that
the President may direct such remedial
action as shall be necessary.

THE EARrHQUAKEs IN ENGLAND.

THE EARTHQUAKES IN ENGLAND.
The London Times of the 7th ult., has
three columns of communications and re-
ports respecting the earthquake which was
felt in various parts of England the day
before. The shocks occurred at about q
quarter past three o'clock in the morning,
the sky being unusually clear. the 6rst
frost of the autumn having fallen, and
there being no wind stirring. There we're,
for the most part, two distinct shocks. and
their entire duration is variously esti-
mated at from two or three seconds to
about minute. This discrepancy may
be partly; accounted for by the probable
fact that some of the observers were
awakened in the course of the vibrations,
and did not hear the earlier ones We
condense enough of the reports to give
the chief features of the phenomenon:
At Bsckheath there were four very
distinct shocks in the space of two seconds.
The motion was from east to west, and
felt as if four waves had succeeded each
other at equal intervals under boat. At
Hampstead there was no undulatory mo-
ton, but the disturbance made itself felt
by ga kind of swaying SILVER" At
Wordsley an observer says his bed shook
violently, the windows ratified, the fur
niture shivered, and the whole house,
which is usually as firm as rock, quiv-
cred from the bottom to the top. The ma
jorisy of descriptions correspond with this,
some writers comparing the vibrations to
those caused by the near passage of an
artillery wagon, and others to the under.
ground jar of railway train. An OBJ
server in one place said that cloud of
dust appeared to rise from the earth, and
at the same instant he felt gentle blast
of warm air. In game preserves, pleas
ants were observed to become alarmed, as
they usually are during the raging of a
thunder storm. AS rule, watch dogs
were not aroused, but there were cases in
which they barked loudly. The captain
of vessel reports that twenty miles from
Milford Haven he felt conclusion like
striking upon rock.
The sounds accompanying the shock
are variously described. Many heard no
sound at all, except, as one reporter says,
sense of sound, caused by the sensation
that everything around was violently agi-
tated. In some places low, rumbling
sound was remarked, in others grating
sound, as if made by burglars, while in
others still, something like an explosion
was heurd. At Hereford, the sound
was perfectly awful and a lady at Liv-
erpool declares that the shock was pre-
coded by that awful kind of noise which
precedes such visitations in Italy. No
casualty is anywhere reported as resulting
from the disturbance.

Assault on Fort Wagner.

Our troops have made an assault upon this
strong fort aud have been rcpnlsed. Tho para
pct was gained, and terrible hand TO hand
fight ensusd for about half an hour, when our
troops fell back, unable 10 withstand the tel
rife fire from oil the forts in tho harbor which
raned ON them shot and she'll. judging from
results we might now say that the attack was
mismanagci and ill-adyiscd, but that criticism
would be worthless, inasmuch rs we can know
nothing Of tho necessities OF the case. or the
inducements Vhich led to ID. That our troops
fought like veterans is tho universal testimony.
Three brigades were in action, all veteran troops
save one regiment, the 5ith Mass, (colorcd).
This undcipuncd regiment formed the van Of
the storming party and all agree that no troops
ever fought better. An exchange, speaking Of
this regiment in the attack, says:
II lost every field officer and every captain,
and lieutenant only remained to order II
back. Let IL be remembered that this colored
regiment. like tho Louisiana colorcd regiment at
Port Hudson, was put at the head OF storm
ing column, all veterans but they; put in pc,
si,ion never given except to veterans; charged
with duty OF danger and death in which the
bravest troops, tried in long years. have oftener
failed than succeeded. Yet in this utmost test
OF courage and Of all soldierly qualities. this
new regiment Of colorcd soldiers just from the
peaceful soil OF Massachusetts, gave tho most
splendid and most terrible proof OF its hcroism;
fighting in that deadly breach till almost every
officer had fallen and threc hundred Of Its men
Law dead.
