tWeuGy-Guree leagues lnlanQ,
and the villages OF Plea, Matilda and
Ganchones more or less ruined. The
sufferings of the people of Iquique were
intense the absence of water and the
destruction of the principal stores added
to their hardships ; tents were impro-
vised along the stiles of the hills, near
the town, and the neighborhood soon re-
sembled a vast encampment. It is esti-
mattel that the damage done in Iquique
will amount to nearly 1000, 900 of soles.
Chanavaya, the little town at the
guano loading deposits known as Pabel-
ION de Plea, with 400 houses, to-day has
only two standing. Here, rs at Iquique,
the earthquake was followed by fire. As
fortune would have it there were no fire
engines in the town and so the sea took
pity on the inhabitants, came III and ex-
tingaished the confiacration, but as it
retired carried off all that remained of
the place. A little chapel was seen float
ing Of on the waves, and afterward was
found broken into pieces fur to the
southwark. In oneof the guano cuttings
thirty labOrers were buried by the fall
ing earth and suffocated. Among the
shipping the havoc was terrible. One
captain states chat the stern of his vessel
was lifted from the water by the up
heaval at al angle Of forty-tive degrees,
and he for the instant imagined she was
going down bow on.
The shock of earthquake was especially
severe at Chanavaya in some spots the
earth opened in c~revices OF fifteen meters
in depth, and the whole surface of the
ground was changed. At least two hun
bred people were killed, bodies were
floating around in the bay, and a pesti-
Ience is feared. A small steamer, the
Ballestas, was instantly dispatched to

the work of conquest and per-

We are led to infer that this is TO be

future hostility of France, and her de-
termination, as soon as she teels her.

This Bismarck is accredited with a
great many other ambitious schemes for

which are the seizure of Holland for the

'ment of Austria by annexing her Ger
man-speaking provinces.

THE AMBITIOUS BISMARCK.

Any little breathing spell in European
Conferences or politics is improved by
"our foreign correspondent" (who in
most cases is a distinguished diplomat,
connected with some foreign mis-
sion, whose name it would not
for palpable reasons be proper
TO give, &c.,) in setting forth in
detail the policy of Prince Bismarck.
These details are so specific as to carry
the convictions, as they are intended to,
that the writer enjoys intimate relations
with the Prince. That he either sleeps
in the same bed with him, to the exclu-
zion of Madam B., and that the Prince
betrays his plans by talking in his sleep,
DR. that he, the said correspondent, has
rescued from the waste basket or coal
souttle some partially destroyed notes
pr memoranda of the illustrious Prime
Minister.
A recent letter from Berlin to some
body in Washington, not only charges
Bismarck with troubling the waters oi

vent an amicable settlement of the Rus

Where ice'and supbeam quiver;
But still beyond me, shyly feet,
She flashed far down the river.
Sometimes, blown backward in the chase,
With balmy, soft caresses,
felt across my glowing face
The watt Of perfumed tresses.
Sometimes glance che shot behind,
Ger graceful shoulders turning
A cheek whose tints the eager wind
Had setllke sunrise Burning.
Then, in sudden onward glide,
She rushed with even motion,
As o long waves the restless tide
Drives shoreward fast from ocean;
And swift as some winged creature sped
Far down the crystal river,
Until the shining form that fed
