Late East India papers give accounts
of the violent earthquake which shook
various parts OF Bengal between Jan.
10 and II. 1t was most severely felt in
Cachar and Assam. The EARTHQUAKE
was felt as far west Of Calcntta as Din
apare. At Cachar, where it was most
severe, the Garth seemed agitated by a
great wave, rising in swell of 20 feet
high, tossing trees and buildings about,
and making the hills reel. The river
changed its course and upward for an
hour, tossing the water so feet into
the air. The earth opened in hundreds
of places, vomiting up volumes Of blue
sand and water and engulfing houses,
cattle, and men, in some cases closing
over what it had swallowed, and in
others remaing in yawning abysses,
showing the roofs of houses 90 feet be-
low the surface The convulsion was
felt over all Lower Bengal at the same
time, and continued with great shocks
for several days. k1-

THE RUSSIAN CLERGY IN ALASKA. -
The sale of Russian America to the
United States has given rise to cur
ious difficulty, which promises to give
some trouble to the Governments at
Washington and st. Petersburgh, 1t
appears that under the Russian regime
the Esquimaux and other natives of the
country who had been converted" to
the orthodox faith paid a tax for the
support of the Russian Popes who had
been sent among them as missionaries.
The United States authorities, on TAX
ing possession. declined to collect taxes
for The Russian clergy, and the people,
not being disposed to make any volun-
tary offerings, the Popes were left en-
tirely without resources. They then
appealed to the synod at st. Peters
burgh, which decided that they should
remain under the protection and in the
pay of the Russian Government as be-
fore and be subject to the jurisdiction
of the synod. This decision seems to
be objected to by the United States
Government, which is naturally I'M
willing to tolerate any protection
by foreign Power of persons residing
in its dominions, and the organs of the
Slavophile party at st. Petersburgh
are already warmly pleading in favor OF
their distressed countrymen.
