The Clark letters and his ver sion of their connection are out Itt the papers. We see little in them that 'we would be-surprised at in a shrewd lawyer in the prac tice of his profession, but what descent from the dignity that we thougnt attached to the judi cial ermine in the days before judgships were political affairs. We are incapable of reading sip closely in this gigantic con troversy, but every step burns deeper into . us the conviction that to maintain a high degree of respect for this highest court 'We want men jncapable of writ iug these letters and of whom many of William's charges yet wndeniod might receive denial and refutation. .

Danish West Indies Sorely Stricken L-isiister Iuduscribable and Incon ceivable. Dispatches" from the Danish West Indies do not lend hope that the reat disaster was over estimated, by fitst repcrts. It was simply appalling, indescrib able and inconceivable. , A London dispatch of the 12th says: ; "A dispatch to The Times from Ht. Thomas, D. W. I., says that St. Pierre was destroyed in the twinkling bf an eye and that not 40of the inhabitants of the city escaped. Some of the outly ing parishes of the island of Martinique have been inundated, The whole northern portion of theisland is burning. Ithas fceen denuded of vegetation and is a rxsky wilderness. . Rumblings were heard and the smoke .capped volcano burst forth sending for miles in the air mighty volumes of lava to de scend in fiery ashes, stones and darkening dust, from which there was no escape except to a very few and most of them were se verely injured. The thunderings were terrific and the sea receded. Streams were dried up and famine of food and drink prevailed. In ma ny places the ashs cov ered the earth-two feet deep. Tho city of St. Pierre is a mass of- rum with probably 30,000 corpses in various stages of con sumption by the flames and through inability to bury the dead will be burned. A number of smaller towns fared only a little better. The American and British con suls and their families at St. Pierre . perished in the terrible overthrow. This is now a region deserving the pity and the aid of a gener ous people, to which the city of New York, is already responding, as n)any others, will doubtless do at an early day.
