G Se ee SANDWICH ISLANT,S, The Great Earthquakes and Voleanis Fruption at Hawaii. ACCOUNT FROM AN EYE-WITNESS. Incidents of the Eruption and Damage Done. HoNOLvLy, April 15, 1868. Under date of the Sd inst, F wrote that we had ex- perienced shocks of earthquake, that the volcano on Hawaii was active, and that we awaited with some anxiety the arrival of the steamer from that island, ame the next day. The Kilaaea arrived promptly, bringing news that only heighthened the anxiety. On the 27th of March (Friday) slight shocks of earth- quake were felt throughout the forenoon, increasing in violence towards night; at the same time smoke was seen issuing from the summit of Mauna Loa, From Kau, on the south end’of the island, the shocks were more distinct, but commenced Friday night, as many as thirty shocks being experienced during the Bight. From daylight Saturday morning, 28th, ‘unti) one in the afternoon ninety-seven shocks were counted. Between one and two o’clock a very severe shock was felt, Which caused the houses and trees to sway backward and forward, throwing crockery and other articles from the shelves in dwellings and stores. Many frame houses were moved from their foun- dations, while stone buildings were badly cracked, in some instances rendered untenable. Wails fell, causing a thundering noise. The earth moved like a troubled sea, Alling the air with dust, Op to Sunday night, at which time my informant wrote, over 300 shovks had been experienced, From Kealakeakua a correspondent of the Gazette sends the following memoranda of shocks felt by him:— The following list I copy from my diary, which, along with my watch, | have kept at hand, so that IT might be as accurate as possibie in my statement.

On the 9th of April the American whaling bark Hercules, Howland, master, arrived from Hilo, on the west coast of Hawaii, bringing advices from that place up to the night of the 3d of April. The earthquakes commenced there on Saturday, the 28th of March, and continued with short intrmissions until the bark left, A very heavy shock was felt on Thursday, the 2d of April, at four in the afternoon, ‘This corresponds almost to a minute with the shock felt in this city, of which I advised you in my last. Many houses were badly shattered, The families of Messrs. Coan, Lyman, Wetmore and others were compelied to leave their houses. The earthquake was followed by a tidal wave, which rolled. up about ten feet above high water mark, but which did little damage in the bay. At Keauhow, on the Kau coast, there was quite a village, it being the pulu station of Messrs, J. C. King & Co, The wave came in suddenly and carried away every vestige of the houses, canoes and bales of pulu, The natives barely escaped with their lives, At Apua, another village, the wave de- stroyed the village, and one woman was drowned, On the 11th of April the. Kilanea again arrived from Hawail. with advices to .the 8th, bringing a fearful account of the destruction of life aud proper- ty on the south end of the island, in the district of. Kau. Over fifteen hundred shocks of earthquake had been distinctly felt in twelve days, and were of frequent occurrence when the steamer left. At times the ground trembled in- cessantly Jor the space of six and eight hours. The stone buildings in the district which were cracked by the shock of the 28th of March were now completely destroyed. The heaviest shock occurred on Thursday afternoon, April 2, at about four o'clock. This shock was felt all over the group at the same honr, but did no damage except on the island of Hawall. The dreadful tidal wave followed immediately after the shock, doing fearful damage to life and property, My informant states that he was watching the coast when the water receded, and with the aid of a spy- glass saw the wave roll in over the tops of cocoanut trees. This statement is corroborated by statements from five or six parties, Almost every house on the coast of Kau was swept away. Forty-seven natives are known to have been drowned, and tt is feared that tue list will swell when all the facts are known, Some miraculous escapes were made, One nitive was swept off and carried out to sea, and swam back after being four hours tn the water, A child, not over three years of age, was seen doating off on the wreck of a house, and rescued by the bravery of a native, who plunged into the sca, and, swimming otf to him, rescued him and brought him safely to the shore. The boat wharf at the land- ing at Alualu was found iniand about one-eighth of of a mile. Bales of pulu were carried inland and then back with the receding waters, some catching on the rocks, others gomg’ out to sea, ‘This wave occasioned but little, Lf any, doss outside of this dis- i ‘The tide was seen to rise and fail more or less ently around Maul and this island, ‘The first fire was seen to issue from Mauna Loa on the morning of the 27th of March, and later in the day was again seen issuing from three or four dif- ferent points near the summit, These streams run- ning together made a stream of lava about a mile e, which ran down the south slope at the rate of ten miles a day fortwo or three days, when it lost to vie nd did not again mak: appe: until quarter past six P.M. of 'fnesday, April 7, when it broke outon the land of Kahuku, a short distance above the establishment of Captain Robert i near as could be ascertained at the time. i was fowing towards Paakini, and had probably crossed this tract of land and s0 down to the sea, which tt entered af haif-past pine the same evening, creating @ fearful coimotio ending a deuse umn of steam high into the heavens, veral ex- ons have started out to visit the new lava flow. \jesty and several oiicers of the gover bers of the diplomatic and oth fternoon of the i3th im the Kilauea to visit the scene of the flow, No other stream is flowing as ouga rumor says that ab least tires have ‘The col Low rose in of smoke from the summit of Mauna ically into the heavens and reacted uititude of 8 1 four-fifths miles betore it ito spread, Saturday morn the smoke had seltied down upon this city, at a distance of two hundre: miles from the crater, #0 thick that the sun two hours high could be looked at with the naked eye without dificully, resembling a red ball of fire. The passage of the lava stream is reported as a magniicent spectacle; the heat scorching vegeta- tion jar away on either hand, and trees lying in its upon aprairie, At times jets will be thrown high into the air, falling around fike water from a fountain, A strange phenomeuon is described by a resident of the district of Kau, At the time of the fearful shock of earthquake of April2 he was on a hill where le could see fur away on either hand. While gazing at a blu above, and about midway between the establishments of Messrs. Lyman and Richard- son, he saw what appeared to be molten lava thrown from the bluff in a@ stream half to three quarters of a mile wide aad two miles long, burying houses, men and animals in less than three minutes, Upon a closer examination it proved to be a mass of red ch; Soil, piled loosely, in some places thirty feet ia heght. The same substance has been forced out of the mountain, on @ line with the woods, in many places. ‘Ihe earth wascool. A fine stream of water ls now flowing over the soil where none flowed , everybody was thrown to the ground, aud while on the ground tossed about like an India rubber ball, perfectly helpless. Looking towards the sea land was scen of! the coast where none was ever seen before, aud which disappeared under the waves as the shock wore of Another resident states that he saw the southeast slope and summit of a hill fif- hundred feet high, lited bodily and thrown v the tops of trees a distance of a thousand into a valley below, and the turf coveriug the portion thrown off was apparenily undisturbed, This is hard to believe, but the re- laser of the oceurrence 8 a person well known for truthfulness, ‘the whole face of the country is changed. Hills are levelled, chasms and ravines formed where hone existed before and, asim the in- stance related above, a fine stream of water flows where none flowed before. The floor of the crater of Kilauea has gone down hundreds of feet. The Vol- cano House stands, as it were, upon an island, the earth around it being cracked in all directions, ! am told that the proprietor was somewhat | alermed about his position, and went out one even- : to survey his surroundings, when he felt a sinu- nt at his feet, and looking down saw ihe ‘ually opening between thein.

This river of fire varied to 1,200 or 1,500 feet in width, aud when ft is Known that the descent was 2,000 feet in five miles the statement that it ran at the rate of ten miles an hour will not be doubted. We Waited till night, when the scene was a hun- dred fold more grand and vivid—the crimson red of the lava doubly bright; and the lurid glare of the red smoke clouds that overhung the whole, the roaring of the rushing stream, the noise of the tumbling rocks thrown out of the crater and flashes of electric lightning, altogether made it surpassingly grand, and showed that man is nothing as compgred with his Creator. ‘This frat ever-changing pyro- technic display we watched for hours, some of us all lit. nding it impossible to get over to Waiohinu, either by going up the mountain or by sea, we re- turned to this place on Saturday, and hope to go on soon by steamer. From the Kau side the scene is even more beautiful than what we had, as there visitors can get up very near the crater and also directly over the lava stream, Another advantage of the Kauside is that the visitor is not exposed to the strong sul- phurous gases and smoke, From several of the residents of Waiohinu, I have learned a number of interesting facts, which may ve inserted in this connection, The number of shocks which occurred at Waiohinu from March 29 to April 10 is estimat by Mr. Sillo- way to have been upwards of two tfousand, there having been some days between three and four hun- dred. The heaviest shock occurred Thursday, April 2, being the same that was felt so sensibly at Hono- juin, ‘This destroyed every church and nearly every dwelling nm the whole district. From ten to twelve o’clock of that day there had been service in the large ehitreh in Watohinu and it was crowded with people. Only four hours after they left the-heayy shock came, the walls tumbled in, and the roof fell flat—all the. work of twenty seconds, At the same instant every man, woman and child were thrown off their feet, Horses and cattle anipnen down as ifdead. A man riding on horse- back had his horse tumble under him so suddenly that he found himself and horse lying flat on the round before the thought of an earthquake entered nis mind, The earth opened all through the dist and in some places caused dan, us fissures, while in others it closed up again, one place it clo twenty feet from where it opened. These fi: make it dangerous to travel in the dark. Everywiiere the roads are broken up, and it will take much money aud labor to restore them to thelr old condition. The new government road, made by Mr. Martin, has not been injured, the lava not being within a mile of its southern extremity, As the Kona packet was passing the south point of the island, about three miles from the shore, a cont- cal island four hundred feet high rose out of the sea midway between the vessel and the land, emitting a column of steam and smoke. The lava river flows into the sea at this island and has extended the shore out Co it one mile at least, so shat it is ndw on the main jand. ‘The packet was so near when this island up Utat the mud was spattered on the masts and suils of the vessel. ‘The scene of the erruption was @ most melancholy one to witness.

Dur ing Monday night prior to the erupttoa the ground sughout-the district was covered with a coating and and light pumice stone, of a light yel- polor, Where this shower of sand and pumice sione came from isas yot unknown, but probably from some vent hole near the crater. The serene and alarm experienced by the reai- dents of Kau during the two weeks that the earth- quakes and eruption continued prior to their leaving uppear to have been great. Night after night they were compelied to sleep on the mountain ridge back of the village, exposed to the cold and damp winds and rain from the sea, subsisting on taro and iishes, when they could get tiese, or fasting when they could not. The whole district is in ruins, a field of desolation, and probably tive hundred thousand dol- jars would not restore it to what it was a month ago. itis no wonder that the foreigners are leaving the place, with the intention of never returning to it again, The number of deaths will be between eighty and one hundred, as stated in my last letter, The exact number may not be known for some time, as some persons are mnissing whose absence may yet be accounted for, ‘The loss of life is melancholy indeed, and the sympathy of the Hawaiian i. I trust, will be deeply expressed in. some way to the mourn- ing und bereaved families of Kau, whose tender ties have been so suddenly and keenly severed by the hand of God, ‘The tidal wave referred to in my last was much greater than then stated, It rolled in over the tops of the cocoanut trees, probably sixty teet high at jeast, and drove the floating rubbish, timber, a&c., in- jand a distance of a quarter of a mile in some plac taking with it when it returned to sca houses, women and almost everything movable. We have been permitted to read a letter from Mr, F.S. Lyman, of Kau, and make the following ex- tracts a3 of tnusual interest to our readers. Under date of March 31, he writes:— We still live in fear and trembling, not Knowing What may come next, You may have already heard that an eruption broke out on Mauna Loa, a little to the southwest of Lhe suminit, about six o'clock last Friday morning, 27th inst. It gave no forewarning; the fire burst up out of the ground, throwing a spray of red lava high in the air, then a great column of smoke rose straight uj thousands of feet and arched over to the east. Ina few minutes a new jet was thrown up a little southeast of the Orst, with its column of smoke, soun foliowed by another jet, and en by a fourth; soon the re@ lava began running wn the sides of the mountain in four streams ina southerly and easterly direction.

" The Honolulu Gazette says:—Accounts up to April 29 have been received of the volcanic action in the Island of Hawaii. The earthquakes were less vio- lent and frequent, although the whole island was still agitated with light vibrations and two strong shocks were felt as faras Honolulu, There were re- ports that lava had again broken out, but they were not credited. At Kakuka on the 7th of April the lava again burst forth through a fissure nearly'three miles long, and ran in a few hours twelve miles from a height of 8,800 feet to the sea, forming a solid projection one half mile in length. Collections of money were being taken up for the refief of the sufferers by the earthquakes. At Honolulu $3,000 had been raised in response to a personal appeal from Queen Emuina. The steamship Idaho brings a full return cargo, consisting mostly of sugars. The Hawaiian Assembly was considering a propo- sition to oifer a subsidy equal to that given by the United States to induce the running of a second steamer to and from San Francisco. The Legislature has passed au act reduct the total interest to nine bs cent on all unspecific con-, tracts. ‘The savings banks at once reduced the in- terest on deposits to six per cent, FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The only marked feature of business in Wall street last week was the great activity and buoyancy of government securities, which experienced an ad- vance of more than one per cent, and in the case of ten-forties one and three-quarters per cent, owing to considerable purchases on foreign account, stimu- lated Wy the fact that the Secretary of the Treasury has disposed of ali but $300,000 of the amount authorized by Congress, so that the ‘loan is practicelly closed.

Mopeover, which these bonds are issued expressly pro- vides that the principal as well as the in- terest shall be paid in coin, foreigners fee; that they are beyond the reach of anything that Congress may enact in relation to the finances at any future time; although there 18 no reason to apprehend that the government will break fatth with the holders of any other of its bonds in any respect. Another great advantage which the ten-forties pos- sess is the length of time they have to run, the bonds net being redeemable until forty years from their date, the government, however, having the option of redeeming them at any time after ten years; but It will certainly not be able to avail itself of this privilege until long after the resumption of specie payments, and there will be no inducement to’ pay off a five per cent loan until after the six per cent loans have been redeemed. The demand for al; the exportable bonds was stimulated by the advance of about-one per cent In five-twenties in London during the week, while the home demand for investment and the temporary employment of capital was unusually heavy. The resolutions with regard to the finances reported by the Committee on Resolu- tions to the Chicago Convention exerted a reassuring effect upon the minds of those who were before in doubt os to the tendency of future financial legisla- Uon in Congress, and the good feeling produced by the vote of the Senate on impeachment was thus encouraged. The disbursement of the May interest on the public debt has led to an active demand for reinvestment, while the growing abundance and cheapness of money at this centre and elsewhere have caused the banks to be free buyers in anticipation of higher prices. Notwithstanding the recent improvement in prices it will be seen by references to the stock lists early in July and Jan- uary last that they are lower now than they were then, allowing for the accrued interest, which in the case of the new five-twenties of 1865 and 1867 dates from the 1st of January, and in that of the ten-for- tics from the Ist of March, the mterest on the bonds of 1862 and 18¢4 being payable in May and Novem- ber. On the 11th of July the bonds of 1862 sold at 11244, those of 1864 and 1865 at 10974, and those of 1867 at 1085, ‘The indications are favorable to a continuance of the present active demand for United States stocks and a further considerable advance in prices, these being stil for the interest they bear the cheapest securities in Wall street, and the out- side public is afraid to touch railway shares in their present highly cliqued and inflated condition, ‘The conversions of seven-thirty notes into five- twenties have progressed very actively at the Sub- ‘Treasury of late, the total since the ist inst. having been $20,552,550, beyond which the purchases of these notes by the Assisiant ‘Treasurer have aggre- gated about ten millions. The last of the fifty mil. lions of three per cent certificates were paid out yes- terday in redemption of compound interest notes, of which $17,256,000 had been presented at the Sub- ‘freasury between the date of their matarity, the 15th instant, and the close of business on Friday. It is not improbable that a further issue of these cer- tifleates will be authorized by Congress for the redemption of the compound notes which have not yet matured, The special activity in the conversions of seven-thirties is due to ihe intimation that the new five-twentles of 1868, without the July conpon, will be exchanged for them after the profint month. Sub-Treasury disbursed $2,041,000 in coin in payment of interest on the public debt within the week, and recelved $2,184,880 for customs duties. Vhe total coin interest payments since the Ist instant amount to nearly seventeen millions. The shipments of spee'e during the week amounted to But not- withstanding the price of fold remained throughout remarkably steady, the Nuctuations having been from 1801, to 140, with the closing transactions at 139%, while the volume of spocniauve business ta the gold room was light. ‘The stock market was exirem clu! and steady until Friday, when it became somewhat femer and Jess inactive than usual of late, and yesterday after. hoon the improvement was sti! more decided in some of the railway shares, while Pacifie Mail ad vanced to 99%, this being the strongest stock on the list. Whe speculative feeling of the street is, how- ever, tame, and the speculation in ratiway shares entirely lacks outside support, so that the task of tm- parting activity to it rests with the cliqnes con- Tolling ihe Weapdesite stocks, and their only object n engineering a rise in prices isto seil ont at the advance preparatory to the inevitable reaction down- ward, The market is in that artificial state when to either buy stocks or sell them “short” isto play against loaded dice; for although the public is unwilling to relieve the cliqnes of their load the abundance of money enables them to temporarily mark up pfices Where they have a “short interest to work upon, while they have the power to depress prices as much as they please by throwing some of their stocks on the street, and it requires but a small amount of these to accomplish the object. That the cliques would find the public any more willing to bay at still higher prices is so doubtful that they will hardly find it profitable to make the experiment, It is announced that the Union Pacific Railway has been completed to @ point six hundred miles beyond Omaha, and sixty miles of ratiway are now con. structed over the Rocky Movntoius, the sam as the act under flow was ‘ The | below. i v | continued to as a commercial interest, The money market was extremely easy at 5 a 6 per cent, with the great majority of loans at five, while there were not a few exceptional transactions, where the leading dealers in government securities were concerned; at four. The statement of the as- sociated banks of this city for the week ending yes- terday reflects this condition of affairs, the legal ten- der notes showing an increase: of $4,619,667, and the deposits of $1,194,245, while there is a decrease in the loans of $348,504, in the specie of $462,195 and in the circulation of $10,311. . The totals of the present and last previous statements are as subjoined:— * May 23. S781 008 c The foreign exchange market was firm during the early part of the week, but afterwards it became rather heavy in tone, although rates were unaltered. There is no immediate prospect of a decline in the latter below the specie shipping point, owing to the limited supply of cotton and general produce bills. It is reasonable, however, to look for a falling off in the exports of gold, those for the last few weeks having been large even for the season, The receipts of cotton at all the ports are on @ greatly reduced scale, those for last week having been only 11,570 bales; but the total since September 1 is 2,107,000, against 1,712,850 bales for the corresponding period in the previous year. It is argued that as the receipts at the ports have thus far been larger than they would have been if cotton had not advanced considerably in price since the beginning of the year that, therefore, they will be lighter than usual during the remainder of the season, the interior stocks betng low. The ex- ports are also small, those for the week from all the ports having being only 27,400 bales. The exports since the ist- of September, however, saxre- gate 1,570,150 bales, against 1,207,180 bales for the same period in 1866-7. The stocks at all the ports are low compared with those at this time last year, the total being 182,820 bales, against 325,210. ‘The stock of. cotton in Liverpool on the 9th inst. was 542,400 bales, and in London 41,100, while there were 96,000 bales of American cotton afloat and 356,000 of Indian. At the same time in 1867 Liverpool had 813,050 bales and London 45,000, while there were 115,000 bales of American afloat and 650,100 of Indian.
