exasperated by their miserable firing of the
morning, when suddenly tile Villa de
Madrid shifted her position aud startedto
wards the Mum ncla, and as breath Of
wind from the sea lifted NJ the smoke fol-.
moment, we caught glimpse of the
Spanish flag, hanging lis!IessIv from the
flag ships fore yard arm. The lombard
ment was over. The Resolution and
Blanca fired few shots, evidently reuc-
tant to abandon their enjoyment and then
all the Spanish vessels, under full head
way, steamed out towards the mouth of
the harbor, turning in a. last to their an
chorage, near the northern side Of the bay
five miles distant.
EFFORTS TO ExI1NGUIsH THE FLAMES.
As soon as the signal of the Nlmancia
was distinguished, the bells of the city
were rung, aud the firemen, who had been
prevented from approaching the fire,
rushed out with their engines, while the
people streamed down from the hills 10
the city. Four of The custoin-houses were
on fire, which threatened every moment
to enyeiop the others, and three blocks
of private buildings were already de
stroyed. The flames were spreading with
great rapility, and the wind freashened
from the bay, but the tiremen finally sue
ceeded in checking the progress of the
fire, though not without the assistance OF
| fire companies from Santiago and seven
hund red sailors -sent ashore from our
squadron. The English admiral sent 100
men to bel ? out the fire, but the feeling
against the British squadron was so bitter
among the people, including all the En-
glish residents, that their assistance was
declined, and the men returned to the
ships. Troops were stationed throughout
the city 20 protect property from evil>d;s-
posed persons, and the fire, Which broke
out number of times after being appar-
emily overcome, was finally wholly extin-
guished, one of the custom houses being
saved. Among those who distinguished,
themselves in preventing the further
spread of thu contiagration were Mr.
Henry Meiggs, the American millionaire
and his two sons, all Of whom labored as
firemen until late hour of the night.
THE QUIET
which prevailed after TIE tombardment
was remarkable. There is in Chilli no
such character as rowdy. | have not
seen a single disorderly Gillian since my
arrival here and fight among Inhabitants,
and disturbance such as afford the subject
of our police reports, are unknown. There
was reason TO feel however, that after
such an event there might be some drunk
! enness, street fights and perhaps pillaging
bat the night passed # nothing had trans
pred, except 50 far as tie interest mani
tested by the inhabitants in tie effect of
bombardtnent was concerned. On Sun
day services were held in the churches as
usual, and the street cars resumed their
trips, as well as the trains between Val
paraiso aud Santiago.

The Griefs Of Petroleum.

1ItuGiC 4CttcflO y. l. Nofld, ~Uth INST
The petroleum interest has been fated
to carnival Of disasters during the past
three months, moro serious than any in its
previous history. Fire has visited the
wells and the towns with about equal des
structlon. III TitusyiI,e not d small p0r,
ti0n Of the city has succumbed to the des
toying element, while fithoe city has
lost from the same cause seven hotels be-
sides several business houses, aud Piumer
Ball Town and Petroleum Cen'er have
likewise suffered severely. The Humboldt
refinery al p.umcr, and refinery on Pit,
hole have gone up in smoke or down in
ashes. The terribly destructive fire which
swept away nearly forty thousand barrels
of oil, besides tanks, engine houses, der
gicks and everything else within reach,
upon Bennehof and Oil Creek, have al
ready been noticed in the World. Great
damage was also done along the Ale
ghany by the flood which appears here en-
force every spring. Add to these ige SEES ~
unavoidable accident the suspension OF
the banks, the lethargy of congress upon
material subjects, besides The continued
low price OF oil (about one third its mar
ket price enc ysr ago J and We arrive at
tie unavoidable conclusion that The pet
roIeum interest las been subjected TO a
test the success Of which has proved net a
little for It's character Of stability and per
manence According to the Oil City
Register, the total loss to the oil regions
arising from this series of disasters IS rot
less than FIVE million Of dollars.

EFFECT OF TIE SHOTS.

From the bluff near the place where the
legation had taken refuge at the residence
of Lewis Ostraus, Esq we could overlook
the whole action, and see the shots strlke
in the buildings just below Us. Those OF
the Vencdora crushed thro' the exchange,
driving brick and plank out into the blaza
and then struck the palace, knocking the
mortar in all diroctions.-Many OF the
shells passed through rows Of houses, cx
ploding several squares from The public
buildings, and finally setting them on fire.
The Villa de Madrid divided her attention
between the custom house, which by this
time was badly shattered, and the Gillian
flag OF the hiiI above, the Spaniard5 SEEM
ell very anxious TO cut down the co!ors.
Shots fred at the flagstaff continued their
flight up the side OF the ranges beyond,
skipping along the earth like stone
thrown across the water and endangerng
the lives Of hundreds who had supposed
themselves secure.

The bombardment momentarily became
more severe, the frigates sweeping the
whole city west of the palace. The Blan-
ca, which ran out to the Numancia, sud-
denly increased her speed, turned her
head towards the city, and after sending a
few shots from her forward tarboard guns
at the custom house and boisa. ran along

Democratic Mass Convention.
SATURDAY. MAY 10, isee.

The Democracy Of Montgomery County
are heFeby requested to assemble In Mass
Convention, at Beekel Hall, in the City of
Dayton, on SATURDAY, THE 18TH DAY
OF MAY, 1866, for the purpose of appoint
ing Delegates to attend the Annual State
Convention Of the Democratic Party, to be
held in Columbus, on THURSDAY, THE
path DAY OF MAY, A. ID. 1866, 20 put in
nomination Candidates for the several
State Offices to be filled at the ensuing Oc-
tober election.
Montgomery County Is entitled to eleven
delegates, according TO the basis of repre-
sentation.
The issues before the people are of the
most important character. Among these
may be mentioned the speedy restoration
of our Federal Union, with all the rights,
equality, and dignity of the States unim-
paired, but which is now unhappily pre-
vented by n faction Of vile demagogues and
malignant traitors, who seek to cover their
guilt, under the euphonlous title of Union
men; and yet by force of numbers, deny to
eleven States Of this Union, the right Of
representation, thus adopting the spirit and
doctrine Of disunion itself. They are seek
ing to reduce these States to mere depen-
denotes, to place their citizens in state oi
tutelage, and to exercise a a tyranny over
them, in denying to them the right of sell
government. U.t afa,. ,. ,I.
These high-handed nsurpations need to
be heartily rebulled by the true patriots OF
the country and the lovers of Onion and
Constitutional liberty. From such cen
| tralized despotism, in the hands of a fanat-
ical and powerful faction, no real liberty
no wise government, and no real union car
proceed, or be preserved. Let every citizen

The ChOlera--More Deaths In N. V,
.Ipr and Elsewhere.

NEW ORK, April %.
The Deputy Health Officer reports twelve
additional deaths from the cholera on the
hospital-ship, and the reception of five more
patients from the steamer Illinois, making
the number remaining In hospital six.
The Board Of Health has drawn up Il
proclamation of peril TO the public health
which the Governor has indorsed and
signed. 1t sets forth in series of rcsolu-
tions that in the Judgment of the Board
there is great and immediate peril to the
public health, and provision for clearing
distinctions from the city, for the removal
and treatment of those attacked by cholera,
and generally to enforce laws pertaining to
health to incur debts for the purpose.
The Montreal Herald, of April %, reports
that DIR. Slayer, one of the physicians who
volunteered to attend the cholera attacks on
the England, was taken i'll on Monday
morning, and died of that disease on Tues
day evening. Two other doctors, Carrie
and Gossip, were attacked with the disease,
but recovered. Eight of the passengers
made their escape from the quarantine ship,
and 1t Is feared may spread the disease.
Three cases of cholera have also been re-
ported at Halifax.
The last dates from Guadaloupe state
that the cholera Is disappearing. The off,
cial statistics published by the Govern
ment show mortality from this disease OF
