A GENTLEMAN, residing at Bayou Chicot,
auUuJ Twenty-Five naiIes- north of Opelousas,
gives the following account of the earthquake
at that place on the 9th inst:
About half past five o'clock on Sunday
morning (the 9th) there was sharp shock OF
an earthquake here. The shock was sufficient
to shake our house, heavy and substantially
built is it is, until all the lemons and joints
about il cracked and cracked as if the whole
concern was about to fall to pieces. But no
actual damage was done. The shock was ac-
companied by a noise like low, rumbug
thunder; and after the main shock. which
lasted perhaps five or six seconds or longer
there were two lighter ones, producing a rock
ing motion from west to east, the sensation
feeling to me in bed like the swinging of
hammock. The sensation conveyed by the
first shock was as if the house was about to
be crushed together. l felt the whole dis
tlnctly from beginning to end, as was lying
awake when the first shock was felt. The
whole thing did not last over ten or twelve
seconds. The poultry was all frightened from
the roost, and appeared to be very much ter
rified some dogs howled and others barked
Justify as if about to attack something. The
horses ran and snorted, and cattle were dis
turbed from their lairs, and appeared terribly
alarmed.

The following incident is related of the late
General o. NJ. Mitchell:
While making some astronomical Ob;erya-
tions with powerful telescope, he one eve
ming brought into his vision some fine fruit
trees, full seven miles from where his instru-
ment was placed. In looking through his
telescope he saw with perfect clearness some
boys approaching the trees, make their dispo-
sitions, and then proceed to steal the fruit
the professor watching every movement, and
seeing each one of the actors with perfect
distinctness. Mitchell used to tell this anec-
dote with much feeling, saying that while he
watched the little thieves, who supposed they
were unobserved, the words kept ringing in
his ears, Thou, God, seest me-" The Gen
eral often related this incident to his friends
and made fine religious Improvement upon

A Costly Church stecpIe BIewn Down by the
Recent Gale.
The Trenton Gazette OF this morning has the fol-
lowing
We have alluded in another brief item to the
violent gale OF wind that prevailed last evening
Shortly after pennng 1t we learned OF It's disastrous
effects in demolishing the steeple OF the Fourth
Presbyterian church on the corner OF State and
Clinton streets. IL tell with q terrific crash at q
quarter past o'clock, just as the congregation were
assembling for the evening service, and It's ruins
litter the sidewalk on Clinton street for hundred
and ffty feet. 1t is almost miraculous that no one
was killed or injured, as persons were entering the
church almost in steady stream, and q
party OF ladies heard 1t crack and snap
as it was broken loose by the violent
gale, just as they entered the door. 1t was also
fortunate that it did not fall on the roof of the
church, for II it had the whole top Of the church
would have been crushed through to the heads OF
the people who were assembled within, and terri
Bile loss OF life would doubt have ensued. The
scene OF the wreck shows with what terrible force
the heavy mass Of which the steeple was composed
struck the ground. The heavy tmbers are broken
into numerous fragments, the nag-stOpes broken,
and the heavy iron fence which skirts the sidewalk
twisted and bent into all sorts OF shapes.
This Bteeple was perhaps the handsomest and
most costly in the city, and was two hundred and
twelve feet high 1t will cost large sum of money
to replace 1t.
