TIE RESULT OF THE TRIAL.-Of course
the result is speculated about. The Senate
at present consists of ffty-three members,
with two vacancies-one in Maryland and
one in Delaware. Should both these va
cancies be filled before trial, the Demo-
Gratis would have eleven votes. 1t would
require eight Republicans to coincide with
the eleven Democrats to prevent verdict
of guilty. Of the thirty six senators whose
votes are necessary to conviction, twenty
nine have already, by voteton the resolu-
ton in relation to- the attempted removal
of>Stanton, declared the. President guilty
of violating the Constitution and the laws.
Those whose judgment may be best relied
on are confident that every, Republican
senator will vote for impeachment.-Bds-

THE GREAT SOUTH AMERICAN
EARTHQUAKE.

A letter, dated Ar-qnipa, August l6
thus describes the destruction Of thai
place:
The shock commenced at 500 in the after
noon, and lasted six to seven minutes The
houses being solidly built. and of one story
/ resisted for about one minute, which gave
time for the people 20 run into the middle OF
the street; so the mortality, although consid-
cradle, is not SO great as might have been ex-
pec,ed. If the earthquake had taken place
at night, few, indeed, would have been left to
tell the story. As 1t is, the prisoners in the
carcel, [public prison., and the sick in the
hospital. have persisted. The earthquake
commenced with an undula,ing movement,
and as the shock eliminated, no one could
keep his feet. The houses rocked ship
in the trough of the sea, and came crumbling
down. The shriekS of the women, and the
crash of falling masonry, the upbeaving of
the earth, and the clouds of binding dust,
made up scene that cannot be described
We had nineteen minor shocks the same
night, and he earth still continues i'll motion.
Nothing has vet been done toward disinter-
ring the dead. but l do not think any are
buried alive, as certain death must have been
the fate of all those who were not able to get
into the street. The earth has opened in all
the plains around, and water has appeared in
various places.

Soon after she came to London, friend OF

She was full of genius, aspira ton and gener

seldom known a more unselfish or more
charitable person. She was surrounded by
the pensioners on her bounty. She would
not only give her last dollar 20 relieve dis

possessed. She asked nothing but love (; she
gave everything to those she pitied and to
those she loved.

| WHAT lT AMOUNTS To--Every one ex-
pected Maine would go Requirement. least
every one but Captain Moss. Few, how
| ever, counted upon 10000 majority, gain
of 5000 over last wear, while very large
number Of shrewd politicians Of both parties
looked for a reduced Republican majority.
Four days ago the most sansuine radica Is
did not venture to hope for more than
Is 900 majority, and would not have been
willing t. bet on 10000. while the Demo-
Gratis confidently expected 20 bring down the
figures to few thousand. And they had
some pretty good reas ms for indulging in
such expectations. There good reason
to believe that the voters of the Pine State
would be largely Influenced by the dull
times, business stagnatlnn, and especially
bv the pro.tration of the shipbuilding inter
est, so important tn them. Ii was natural to
suppose that these things, together with
heavy taxation, would by many honest
voters be laid at the door of the Republican
party. Pendleton and the Democratic
stumpers made the most of these matters,
and proved, If course. that radical rule was
the one great and Astounding fountain OF all
our woes. That appeals of this sort, pre-
scented with plausible ingenuity, would in
fuence many votes, was TO be anticipated.
Besides, Maine has been subject TO many
strong political fluctuations. She went for
Pierce in 1852. and has never voted as stead
lily and un formlv some other Republican
States. For these reasons, among others,
the Maine election is far more significant Of
the drift of popular sentiment than that in
Vermont !; and it is regarded BY all acute
20 iticians. Sagacious Democrats took the
Vermont election quite c"olly but the news
from Maine has seriously disturbed them.
In fact, it l. looked upon as almost settling
the general result. This is seen in the strik-
ing change in the betting since TUESDAY.
Before that time Democrats were not back
ward in ri>ki"g their money on the general
result, and Republicans were not par,icu-
larry forward. A week ago n" Republican
dreamed of betting on this State without
getting heavy odds. But since the news
from Maine all this is changed, and now the
Republicans are actually taking all the even
wagers they can get on the state. OfcourSe
do not a llude to the betting as proving
anything, except rise or fall in the price
of gold proves confidence or the lack of it,
But it is impossible to hide the fact that if
Maine has, under existing circumstances,
really given 10000 maj rirv for the Repub-
lican ticket, it is ominous of almost certain
defeat for the Democrats. That is what the
Maine election amounts to, and that Is how
it is understood by all the political sharps, |
though the fats still declare th+tthe news is |
very much like an announcement that the |
Dutch have taken Hollands. f. Chronicle. |

THE IMPORTANCE OF SECURING A
LOYAL LEGISLATURES.

Next 10 importance to making sure Of
Nevada for Grant and Colfax is the sc
curing ola Legislature, the majority Of
| which shall be true and Trustworthy
Uuiouists. The needs of the State de
mand this for many reasons. In the
first place it would be the most eyre.
gious folly to trust the important leg
islation which must be had next winter
into the hands of men whose enmity to
Republican institutions would induce
them to pursue such a course as would
place the State in antagonism to thu
loyal majority in and out of Congress,
The credit Of the State at home and
abroad cannot sustain so great a cal
amity as Democratic rule the ballo,
box cannot afford such a modification
of the Registry act as would induce
the colonization among us of the dis
banded bushwhackers of Prices army;
and We certainly must not take the risk
of electing a Copperhead to The Uniteo
States Senate in place of Stewart.
We say this much in behalf Of the
Union nominees for the Legislature in
all the counties-snd not partic ularly
for our candidates for the Senate and
Assembly here in Ormsby. But We
would remind our friends here tina,
former victories give US no excuse for
apathy and indecision this year. Take
it Tor all in all, this is the most impor-
tant election ever held in the country
Men and communities who fall short O,
doing their duty now cannot look to old
friends for favor hereafter. We have
the most implicit belief that the State
will give a rousing majority for Grant
aud we have also much confidence in the
election of Union Legislature and for
hose reasons, if for no other, the Union
men of Ormsby cannot afford to weaken
ucH iOCal iDaeteSto " permitting tuN
TO elect their candidates
There will be An effort, next Winter, to
ward moving the State Capital. 1t be |
looves us to put such men into the Sen
to and Assembly rs shall have some
Weight and influence with the majority
'resupposing that majority to be COM
,rised of Union men, is it not for our
most vital interests that we should elecu
men to cooperate with them? Selfish
less as well IS patriotism demands of
very man of the Union party a hearty,
active support of the whole
icket from top to bottom and by Civ
ng it such support conscientiously, and
8 becomes party mea, every nominee
lpon our ticket will be enabled to share
he glory of the triumph of Grant and

The Masons of Philadelphia have pur-
chased lot at the corner Of Broad and
Filbert streets, on which they intend to
erect new Masonic hall. The contract
for the building has already been awarded,
and the contractor guarantees to lay the
cornerstone next st. Johns day, and
finish the edifce five years hence, at a
cost of three-fourths Of a million of dol
lars. The new hall will be of granite, and
in the Norman style. The four sides OF
the building will be of granite, the only
difference in the design being in the front
on Broad street, which, it is intended, will
present one of the most magnificent fea-
lures of that thoroughfare.
