the sea was so rough that not much
work could be done ut the wreck. One

AsPINwALL, April 8, via HAVANA
April 1O.-The city OF Salvador, Central
America, has been destroyed by an earth
quake. Eight hundred persons periahed
and $l2,OOO0OO worth Of property was
destroyed. Tho earthquake was followed
by a conhsgration, and many buildings
were burned. For a few days slight
shocks OF earthquake had occurred,
but no serious apprchensiOns were enter
tanned. 1t was on the afternoon of the
4th Of March, about hall-past 4 o'clock,
almost without warning, that great
part OF the city was reduced to little
more than ruins. The ground heaved as
a ship in gale, terrific thunderings burst
from under foot, walls tottered and were
rent in many places, with wide crevices,
roofs sank and tiles were precipitated to
the ground, and lamps, pitchers,
basins, glass, &c, were overturned and
broken. Three violent shocks followed
in succession, and the servants COM
menced to scream piteously and could not
be paciGed. Wild birds flew 10 the houses
the horses grew frantic in the stables, and
bowling dogs skunk for protection. Every
few minutes shakings OF less violence oc-
cured. The scene beggars description.
Ruined houses. panic stricken people,
men, women and children fleeing to the
fields with valuables hastily collected,
then the ringing Of the alarm bells and
beating OF drums calling allot the soldiers
under arms, lor in San Salvador murder
and confusion accompany the confusion OF
great earthquakes, and as the frightened
citizens leave town the dusky Indians
from the forests prowl for prey into it.
They are only checked by the bsyonets of
the government troops. These were post
ed in squads at short distances all over
San Salvador.

"It the ModoCs surrender as prisoners ol

wha. to do with tho Railroads.

T.
This brings us to tho pilh Of tho con.
troversies which now agitate the whole
country: the remedy for the expressions
aud rObberies Is with the governments
which create the railroad corporations.
But the radical error at this point Is in
supposing that In order to regulate them
the government must own them. II we
complain OF the extortion and inefacienCy
of the telegraph, the railroad and tho
express lines, the easiest argument Is
that the government must purchase and
manage them. This Is simply false rea-
s1ning, really In the interest OF the mo.
nopolists, who know that such con.
tingency is more unpopular than their
own abuses, and fatal 10 the reforms
which the public welfare demands. There
isa wide distinction between proprietor
ship and constitutional regulation; while
the first is too dangerous to be applied to
anyOC tho great business interests OF the
country, besides being contrary to the
letter and spirit OF our government, the
last Is absolutely demanded as an accom-
psnimcnt OF all legislation comforting
special privileges upon corporations for
any purpose. ,--..
Three rules, then, we have always con-
tended, must be enforced as defence
against the usurpations which are grad
uslly destroying our social and politica
integrity and retarding our progress
First, the government must assert It's un-
doubted right to inspect and supervise th'
affairs Of all the corporations upon which
it conlers special powers. Second, thu
government must enforce absolute
publicity Of the affairs of all suct
corporations, so that tho pub
lie may at all times know their condi
ton. Third, all charters or franchises
must require their directors to be choser
by the cumulative system, so that q mi
nOrity Of the stockholders may DO repre-
Sented. BY such means only can thest
important agents DO made TO serve the
public honestly, and capital and labor Ot
ensured against the abuses which arc now
surely accumulating with fearful rapldity

Tur ApPRoPRIATIoNS.-The general
appropriatiou bill passed by the Legtsla'
,pre before adjournment appears in an
other part of this paper. The appropEla'
,ions for the year ending next September
foot up 1856, 1877 05. This does not In
clnde anything for mileage and per diem
q, the Legislature or for salaries OF otii'
GERS. These arc provided for by another
act: Tho first item amounts TO about
$4,000; just what the second would be
We have not the precise data at hand TO
show, but it Is not far from forty thou
sand dollars. This would make the gen.
cral appropriations for the current year
not far from $4,000, The like appro-
priations last year, including expenses Of
Of Legi stature land of fConvehtiOn)amount'
cd to $341,SSi So the work ofretrench'
ment and economy appears to be march
ing on. We note that the items for printing
for the current year foot up just about
$4,000. Then some printing is provided
for in the Governors contingent fund, and
we suspect some in the $4,000 for contin.
gent expenses OF the Legislature, which Is
to cover ''such other sums as may be pro-
perly expended" But the direct and uu-
mistakable appropriations are ten thou
sand dollars greater than last year, when
the Convention printing had to be pro-
yiicd for, while 1t is about three times the
average expenditure for printing under
Republican expenditure. This serves as
another illustration OF retrenchment, etc,
in that particular branch of the public
service.
Why any appropriations were made at
this session for 1874 VIC do not perceive,
since the Legislature is to hold another
session next Fall and Winter. II any
were TO be made, it does not appear why
they should be so much below those OF
the current year, the aggregate for 1874
being but $2O2 $50. The growth Of ex-
penses is in the other direction, and there
is little probability that the expenditures
OF any future year will be less than those
of its predecessor.
