from the altar yclpthes and dresses Of
the dead, SO that the substance of the
rich and poor, the booty OF the dishon-
est, tie costly offerings Of the pious,
all melted swiftly away. What the
earthquake and the tidal wave had left
was totally consumed. AT the time
when Lisbon fell d general commotion
prevailed over wide circle OF sea and
land. ,Cadiz was swept by tidal wave
that carried away many of its people.
Milan was severely shaken, and some
Of its buildings destroyed. The firm
rock Of Gibraltar trembled violently.
In Switzerland and along the Rhine,
and even in Holland, the shock was
felt. Northern Africa felt it also. and
the city Of Mcginez was destroyed.
Far out upon the Atlantic the waters
were disturbed with fame and smoke.
Even Boston felt it so perceptibly as TO
drive people from their homes in con.
sternatiOn. In 1871 almost every part
of the United States was shaken by
an earthquake. 1t was . year Of
terror. Fierce-looking comets swept
across the sky, and hurricanes Of sleet
and snow desolated Massachusetts, and
Long Island, and the terrible conscious
ness that the earth beneath them was
in commotion brooded everywhere.
From al parts the news came to New
York and Philadelphia that the land
was being shaken by earthquakes. The
first shock occurred at Washington
December is, at about 2:3O in the
morning. Houses were shaken. doors
and windows ratified, men grew sick
and giddy, and fears Of great catas-
trophe filed every mind. At. Rich
mond the bells in the houses rang, and
the people arose In terror. At COlum-
bia, s. g., houses rocked and quivered
and had the. plastering shaken from
the walls. AT Charleston rumbiing
sound was heard like distant thunder.
and the bell inst. Philips steeple was
rung by its agency. In Savannah
there was rumbiing like distant thun-
der and flashes of light in the sir. In
Louisville chimneys were shaken down,
and life was in evident danger. The
springs of fresh water in Kentucky
were tainted with sulphur, and the
j shock extended over Ohio, Michigan
and Illinois The next year, 1872.

EARTHQUAKE HORRORS.
Their Record In Ancient and Mod
ern Times.
Human Prevention observation-disclosures
Of the Casualties-The Earthquakes
At Lima, Callao, Lisbon and In
the UAited states.

The rapidity with which the earth
quake destroys is one of its most horri-
bic features. The cyclone is slow and
the conhagration dull, compared with
the fearful celebrity of the earthquake.
The shock seldom lasts longer than a
few seconds, sometimes minute, vet
its power can compass the destruction
of magnificent cities whose structures
have stood for centuries, and territories
are distorted and shorn of their
beauty and productiveness, hills are
made valleys and valleys hills, rivers
are dried up and yawning riffs open in
the solid earth from which flames and
smoke issue.
In Calabuia a whole district of coun-
try covered with fourishing towns,
fertile, rich and happy, was in a few
seconds converted into = dismal waste.
At that time the most strange distor-
tons Of nature took place. Cities upon
hills were hurled down into the valley
below, the wales were converted into
mountains and lakes. Where hills had
existed wales came to displace them,
fields were removed with all their
growing crops and the lab0rers in
their midst to strange and distant
places. Sand spread over their fields,
and the distortion OF the landscape was
SO great that the survivors did not rec
ognize their own homes.
The earthquake does not always
give an intimation of its coming. The
most experienced observer can not
foreteli BY any signs in the earth or sky
when the dreaded visitation is at hand.
Sometimes it comes when the summer
days are cloudlesss and bright, and
when the stars look serenely upon the
earth in all the splendor of tropical
night 1t comes at other times when
the air is thick and cloudy. and heavy
clouds fill the sky. Winter and sum-
mer are alike subject to its visitation;
1ike death il has all seasons for its own.
The inhabitants Of Lima supposed they
could foretell an earthquake by the cir
cumstance of the rats running more
swiftly among the rafters of the house

"GOd Bless the Court"
"Papa, when You Vote Think of MeF'


A Charleston correspondent, in
the Pittsburg Christian Advocate,
thus refers to the war against the
Saloon:
The Temperance people held
meetings, which were largely at
tended, and discussed measures for
success. The ladies marched in a
solid column into the Court room,
and remained for eight long hours,
hearing the lawyers pleading for
and against whisky. Brother Bet
tbs at noon waited on the Court
and the ladies with lemonade and
crackers. Late in the evening the
honorable Court announced as their
decision, no license for selling whis.
ky in Kanawha county for the
next year. 1t would simply be
useless to try to describe the over
whelming joy of the mothers,
wives and daughters present, as
they cried, Good bless the Court !"
The little son of the President of
the Court remained all day with
the ladies, and said to his father:
"Papa, when you vote, think Of
me-" God bless the noble boy !!
The devil has been mad ever since,
and is trying to influence the Court
to reconsider their vote, but his
pleas will not avail.

WOuld.be Advisers.

When Rhode Island gave 5000
majority for prohibition, the Phila.
delphia newspapers were as silent
as the grave, and we waited some
days to know the result WheG the
Virginia cities gave similar ma
jorities for license, every secular
newspaper announced the fact,
with full details of the vote. And
these are the journals which ask
temperance men to be guided by
their advice.-Chr1staan Statesman.

Wealth in w. Va. Woods.

John Peters and William H.
McClintock, of Pocahontas county,
brought to Ronceverte raft of six
ty-three black walnut logs, gather
ed on Swago creek, in the upper
Greenbrier valley, which they sold
at the yards of the st. Lawrence
Company. The logs averaged three
feet in diameter and sixteen in
length, and were estimated to yield
about $4,000 feet of sawed lumber.
They were all sound and of fine
quality. One of the largest was
cut from the tree which yielded the
block exhibited at the Centennial
Exposition of 1876, in Philadel.
phia, as sample of West Virginia
cabinet woods. This firm during
the past season collected 10000
feet of walnut in Pocahontas coun-

"Precisely," came the doctors

Boy Lost In the Woods.

A ten year old boy named Wes-
ley Jones in Richie county was
cruelty whipped by Mrs. John
Cross with whom he was living,
and to escape punishment, he
jumped out at a window and fed
to the woods. Dressed only in
shirt and pants, dog for a COM
panion, he wandered and slept out
for several nights and then, taking
shelter in school house, was found
and cared for. The alarm was
raised and the entire community
aroused to find the lost boy, who
was thus a wanderer from Monday
till Saturday, to escape the brutali-
ties of his heartless guardians.

Prohibition In Sweden.

A petition, signed by 2OS,S27 of
his subjects, one-third of the adult
population eff Sweden, has been
presented to King Oscar, asking
for the total prohibition of the liq-
uor traffic. The king has the power
to suppress the trade, and the fact,
that himself, the queen and his
ministry have all signed the total
abstinence pledge, gives rise to
the hope that he will use his royal
prerogative to free his dominion
from this curse.

IOWa's Governor Reads the Riot
Act to the Liquor Criminals.
The Saloon Must Go.

Governor Larrabee, of Iowa, is
determined the laws Of the State
shall be obeyed. He publishes a
Proclamation, reciting the Prohibi-
tory law, its vigorous enforcement,
the frequent demand for executive
clemency by liquor selling con-
victs, &C., and concludes as fol-
lows:
Now, Therefore, l, William
Larrabee, Governor Of the State of
Iowa, relying with confidence upon
the loyalty and true Christian
spirit of our people to sustain all
measures adopted for the promotion
of the general welfare, do, under
the pains and penalties of the law,
warn all persons engaged in the
illegal sale of intoxicating liquors,
to desist from such unlawful prac-
tice, and I do hereby give notice
that willful violators will hereafter
have no claim on executive
clemency. And I most earnestly
call upon all good people of this
State, to aid, to the best of their
ability, in the enforcement of the
law.
Especially do l call upon all
Temperance societies, and other
bodies organized for kindred pur-
poses, to realize the necessity for
new energy in their labors.
Let the priests, ministers, teach
ers and press use their best efforts
to enlist the moral forces of the
State in this cause. Let the judges,
attorneys and other officers of the
courts be painstaking and persis-
tent in enforcing the law, both in
letter and in spirit. Let the
sheriffs and peace officers be fear
less and vigilant, and let the
mayors and other municipal officers
awaken to new zeal in their efforts
to secure Its observance.
