• ANOTHER WIGGINS.
-The excitement caused in this state
Wiggins, the Canadian, who pro-
dieted an earthquake, tjdól wave and
other diro calamities in Texas, has
scarcely been forgotten and tbe pro
essor relegated to the long list of
cranks, when an imitator starts up
who aspires to the honors' and the
notoriety of tjjo Canadian mount o
bank. This time the fiejd pftosen for
imposing on human credulity is Mex-
ico, where superstition and ignorance
are ni ore favorable to the success of
the/ impositor than in Texas, whose
>eople, judging from recont evente,
are too Bbarp to bo victimized by
cranks or impositors of uny descrip
tion.
According to a dispatch from the
anoient papital of tho Moutezumas
this morniug, one Uunejn has aroueed
not only excitemeut, but terror among
the more ignorant class of population,
by predicting the City of Mexico will
be partially destroyed by an earth
quake today, the catastrophe to be
accompanied by great loss of life.
Bunej.i protends to have a certain in
strument by which he pan foretell an
earthquake month^ji^.¡advance. He
is a littlo ahead of \\igginB who as
suined i; a forekn^weledgo of Buob
startling phenomeua.as eurtbquakos,
from the positions of certain planets,
Claiming that, by their attraction, tbe
center of gravity of tho earth was
shifted.
Bunoja is evidently a miserable
fraud, for science., has never yet exj
plained the causes of tho earthquake,
much less being able to forotell seis
mio disturbances in the mumper that
eclipses are foretold. But should a
shake accidentally occur in the his
torió hallB of the Monteemnas today,
Bunejat would be a bigger man than
Diaz himself, and he would have laid
the foundation of a long line of pre
dictions, believed uutil the fraud
could be shown up by several of his
divinations failing to materialize. It
is eai'nestly hoped his first effort in
this line will be a signal failure, not
only in the interest of the City of
Mexico, but to cut off by anticipation
a career of fraud and imposition.
The proposition of . the. State

glance at the matter. One million
