Oneof the greatest ever recorded was the famouns one at Lisbon, when at least 60,000 pereons peri:hed. The af fected area on that cécision was very wide, extending on the i hand as far a8 the southern thores of Finland, and on the other reaching acroes the Atlantic to the 8t. Lawrence and the Wes: Jndia {slands, an extent of sorfaca amounting to no less than 7,600,000 eqaare miles The Britieh isics experienced some of ite effects, its inland waters rising and fall- ing, aud springs being diverted, On the occesion of this earthquake the ocean wave at Oadiz js said to have been sixty fost high. Numerous other minor disas- ters have happened in the peninsuls, one or two having b2en of comparatively re- cent occurrence. This 1s <nly to be ex- pected from the fact that Spain is sita ated on the line of one of the most active zones cf subterranean activity, This comprites tho valley of the Med- iterranean, Asia Minor, Sumatra, and Java, the Philipines, and so on - through Mexico to the Azores, which group of is- lands is undoubtedly the result of vcl canic agency. Earthquakes are some times short, sharp, and sudden, not re- curring again in the same district for a long perlod of time; others are intermit- tent and contlnue in a long euccesslon. Thus the series of famous earthquakes which destroyed thousands of lives in Calabria began in Febroary, 1783, aud did not altogether cease for nearly four years—until the end of 1786. On the other hand, the city of Caracas was de- siroyed in about half a minute, together with ten thousand of its inhabitants Other South American towns have sliared the same terrible fate in a manner equally sudden, Trustworthy writers, however, stato that the advanco of some of the Peruvian earth(uakes has been dis- tinctly observable. Mirst comes a low rumbling sound, increasing in intensity with the progress of the earthquake waye. The startled auditor, knowlng too well of what the ominous noise is the preour- sor, looks up and secs the sky- line of the snow-clad Aunder visibly oscillate miles awey; snd within an interval of a minute or so the earth heaves beneath his feet, the shock or reries of shocks trave ing in & direction distinetly traceable. Of late years much ater attention has been devoted in se 1 counties to seismology. Observatio are now being taken in many quarters of the worid, but a considerable period must clapse before these can be of any apprecia ble advantage to science. Curiously enough the Japanese government, whose islands ate greatly subject to ea: thiuakes, has been the first to e state de partment for sceuring seutive series of records of earth's tremors; and the ex- isting chronicles of Cluna and Japan, in this respect, arc much more complete than those of European nations. In France about 660 shocks of more or less violence we been rocorded, and, as in the major— ity of other casis, much the larger pro- portion of these took place in the wintee months. In Great Britain accounts are extant of about 250 shocks of similar severity. The most disastrous were those of Lincoln in 1142, of Glas- tonbury in 1214 (when the abbey was de- stroyed), of a wide partof England in November,, 1318 and April 6, 1680, when Lordon was visited by a shock which brought dowa part of Oid St. Paul's and Temple church. More than a century later Dablin experienced a sharp tremor, and London had another in 1750. O:hers occurred in various parts of Eogland in 1852, 1859, 1860 and 1863; while on April 22, 1884, the esstern countles were shaken and damage was done to the amount of a good many thousand pounds In varlous sges predictions of coming eatthquakes have, equally with thcss re lating to comets and eclipses, had re- makable influence on the public mind.

With a capacious and comfortable house at his disposal, it Is hardly possible that the shy, silent cautious Washington should leave such retircment and enter the leafless woods in the vicinity of the winter encampment of an army and er gage in audible prayer.

Cleveland Lesder Washineton Correspon- deace, Many people have the idca that great speeches are made on the spur of the moment. The fact is that hardly one such in our history has been delivered without exhaustive preparation. Patrick Henry’s grens specch on the stamp act in the Virginia House of Burgesses was on a subject which was then agiftating the colovtes and he hud probably gone over its points time after time in privte con- versalion, It waas made on » set of reso- lutions which he had himself drawn up, and as it way one of his first spceches in the Virginia house he had protably care- tully renearsed it beforeband. The cries of treason! treason! perhaps mado impromptu the last sentence of that memorable utterance if this be treason, make the most of it,” but *‘Caesar had hie Bratus, Charles the Firat his Crom- well, and George the Third may profit by thelr example,” was a carefully thought out sentence ready for the occasion. Daniel Webster's great sentence as to the extent »f the English empira was conceived long befcrehand. A power to which, for purposes of foreign con- quest and subjugation, Rome, in the height of her glory, is not to be com- pared—a power which 18 dotted over the surface of the whole globe with her pos- sessions and military poste, whose morn- ing drumbeat, followlng the sun, and keeping company with the hours, circles the earth with one contiouous and un- broken strain of the martial airs of Eng- The main idea of 1t was not orig- ‘The sentence was uttered in “The sun The expression ‘‘sea of upturned which Webster used in a speech passed a night in Hyde park in order to | WEBSTER'S GREAT SPEECH AGAINST HAYNE escape the effocts of a shock predicted by a madman! has a ¢urious history. fore the great debate he had invest'gated Several years be- PLAYING POLICY The Game and Ms Strange ton, N. ¥ egram ers of gamblin le lowsr patt of the ocity exercised to-day ever the s nouncement that Mayog Gieace will upon the police enforcing the law for the suppression of such establichments.

A VICTIM OF POLICY. ““I gueas that old man must have epent over £60,000 on policy,” ssd a_ gentle man to-day to a reporter, pointlug to a sray whiskered, stonp shonldered, rroub'ed faced looking person, who had just emerged ‘rnm a suspicious looking “‘oxchange office” on the Bowery. *I knew him ia Noew Orleauns,” he continued, “‘when he was in businers for himself and was worth at least £40,000. To-day he is not worth a cent. Ae makes a precar. ious liviog as a copyist, and never gots hold of a dollar but what he will ivest a portion ot itin polley. In his palmy deys he would invest hundreds of dollars in lottery tickets, now he often plays a “‘gig" for two cente, and upward, He never pa'ronizes a gaming table, but policy plaging has beon a mania with him for the past thirty years, and oi ths thoutands he hes equandered Ido not belleve lie has recelved one per cent in return.

A grext many years ago he was addicted to gambling and playing policy. He won largely for a timy and was considered vory lucky. But luck went against him and it turned his head. He appears to be half out of his mind at times, going alovg the street talking to himself. He imagines thet he has an immense fortune coming to him. It is one of his hallucinations caused by the hablit of gambling. Sowe days the ex- soldier may bo seen on Broadway o the Bowery dressed like a gentleman, again he 18 almo t in rags aud fthy lcoking When the last snow fell the old s ldier made a hit at policy for a few dollars and he was about the happiest man alive.

Barnes, an attorney, who is thoroughly posted in the matter. stated to your cor- respondent to-day that the “French spoli- ation bil',” which p:ssed the lower house of congress Wednesday, providing that the court of claims shall find out who are the claimants under the bill and the amount to which each is entitled, affects nearly the whole of West Tennessee in general and citizens of Memphis in par- ticular to the extent of $5,000,000. Num- bers of people in West Tenn: ssee are de- scendants from ancestors who lived in the vicinity of Novfolk, Va., when the prop- erty was destroyed by the French fle.t, and lost heavily in consequence, After ward the government of ¥rance paid nto the United States treasury many millions of dollars to pay for the nroperty thus destroyed, This money the United States goverument, instead of disbursing to the ndiviousls whose property had been do- stroyed, appropriated to its own use, and has not to tois day paid one cent of 1t to hs claimants. Mavy years ago claims apainst the government to recover this money were filed, and a bill providing for their payment has twice passed congress, but was each time vetoed by a democrat- ic president. The descendants of the claimants are scattered over the world, wany of them residing in Tennessco, Among the citizovs of Memphis whoso anceetors lost money by the French at. tacks, are the Proudfits, whose claims by this time amount to §2,000,000; MM, Winchester, about $1,000,000; Eequire Caldwell, about $500.000, and several others, making in the syguregate tome- thing near $5,000,000.
