THE SHOCK or 1869.
When Canada, Now York and PenpsyI.
Vania Moro Shaken UP.

wanna WoTc Snakon UP.
Canada, New York and Pennsyl-
vania experienced a terrible shock
on Jan. 26, 27 and 20, 1868. A
quaint description Of The occur
renee, published at the time, says:
'"The heavens being serene, there
was suddenly heard a roar like the
noise of q great fire. Immediately
the buildings were shaken with
great violence. Doors opened and
shut of themselves with a fearful
gathering. The bells rang without
their ropes being touched. Cracks
appeared in the walls of buildings
and floors separated and in some
cases came down. Chasms appeared
in the fields, and the hills seemed to
be in motion. The fright of the
inhabitants was shared by the beasts
and birds, who sent forth fearful
cries, howlings and bellowings.
"The duration of this earthquake
was very uncommon. The first
shock continued half On hour before
1t was over, but it began to abate a
quarter Of an hour after it started.
Three other shocks occurred the
same day. The second day there
was q more violent shock, which
lasted q long time, and that night
some counted no less than thirty
two shocks, Of which many were VIC
lent. The tremblings of the earth
did not cease till July. Many trees
were torn up and the p%rofilcs of the
mountains seemed to be much
changed. Springs and small streams
were dried up. Waters once sweet
became sulphurous and the chan
nels In which rivers formerly ran
were 80 altered as TO be unrecogniz-
able.
Halfway between Tadousac and
Quebec two hills wero thrown down
and formed a point Of Land which
extended an eighth Of a mile into
the st. Lawrence river. The island
Of Aux Coudres became larger than
1t was before and the channel Of the
river was greatly changed"

ConVt&tSns.

What most people call "deep and
earnest convictions" on political
and social topics are generally mud
die headed medleys Of knowledge of
fact and opinion. They know that
such and such o thing is On evil and
they opine that they see q way to
amend it, and if wiser people point
out to them that the evil would not
DO SO amended or that greater evils
would accrue from the attempt they
only feel that &heir "convictionsh
are affronted and opposed by cold
bloodcd calculations. This kind Of
opinion is often as confident as ac-
tual neutrality-suspicious. Graphic.
