TIE MOBILE ELEcrIoN.-In the election
on Tuesday, the Radicals carried every,
ward, running up the unprecedented aud
most remarkable majority of AVA. To give
an idea to what extent the repeating was
carried on, upwards of $4,000 votes were
polled, an excess Of about 1000 or 5000
over the voting population Of the city,
which, on fair vote, the Radicals concede
to DO Democratic and Conservative by Q
majority of 1900. In the Second Ward
alone, the vote cast was almost equal to the
number of men, women and children in the
ward, and though 1t lisa well-known fact that
the ward is largely Conservatiye, with only
. few negro votes, still the Radicals carried
it by a majority Of 800. This is not to be
wondered at, when the negroes were pre-
viously posted that no harm could come to
them, no matter how often they repeated,
as is we'll illustrated by . recent decision
Of Judge Elliott.-Aobils Register.

semblo at La Haye, lull them to a false re-
pose. The few speakers who figured on
that occasion, by no means constitute that
formidable engine that shakes empires to
their centres, and overturns the proadest
institutions. What We understand by the
1nterndfi0nale is that fierce revolutionary
impiety which is daily more and moro In
sinuating itself into the breasts of the mui-
tltndes, and which must inevitably, and
at NO distant date eliminate in some fear
fol crisis. 1t is in Rome especially that
this Internal spirit is accomplishing it's
work with satanic fury. Such abomina-
tions call loudly for vengeance. If the
powers of earth refuse to interfere, the
blow from heaven will only fall with
more crushing weight.
The crisis then is fast approaching. But
we fear not for the Church. Victory Is
stamped upon her brow. She shall emerge
from the contest more beautiful and bright
than ever. Let us, her children, hasten
this victory by q tender devotion to the
Heart of Jesu J., and confidence in his holy
Mother. 81

ZANZIBAR.
Losses in Shipping and Landed Property
Report of Fatal Casualties to Life.
TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

LONDON, May 2, 1872
Advices from Zanzibar to the 18th OF April have
been received.
The island had been visited by terrible hurri-
cane. One hundred and fifty vessels OF all classes
were sunk or stranded on the coast
The town OF Zanzibar was very badly dam aged
and the loss was estimated at $10,OOO,OOO
Some of the accounts received from Bombay state
that the storm ragged during whole day and night,
and that nearly onehalf OF the entire property on
the island was destroyed, that hundreds OF houses
were uprooted from their foundations and dashed
in pieces by the violence OF the wind and that many
of the inhabitants believed to have been crushed
to death by the falling dwellings.
The sea to a great height, and in some places
encroached upon the land to such an extent as to
compel the people to recede further into the inte-
ri0r for safety.
THE ISLAND OF ZANZIBAR
The Island OF Zanzibar is situated on the east
coast of Africa. The town OF the name lies in
90 deg. 81 min. sec. south; longitude 80 deg.
30 min. east. The island is forty miles long and
Imaum of Muscat's possessions on the east coast.
Its population is about two hundred thousand made
up OF Arabs, Sowily Africans and negro slaves The
town has a considerable trade with Arabia and
the ports OF the Red Sea. Like all the islands on
the east Of Africa Zanzibar is of coral forma
ton and comparatively low consequently 1t is often
seriously damaged by the action OF the waves.
