The recent ca.-thquako in Vi’est port must have been rather alarming whi’c it lasted. A private letter recoin d in Blenheim from a ladyresident oi M'estpoil contains' the f<.llo-.vii’.n extract : " Every few miiml .s tin re are earthquakes, and I fe el so ill since Salm day that I can l-ardly walk about. 1 don’t know where they are coming from ; it cuts to ho from the sea. 'lliey -.-omo just like a thunderbolt,- and the houses and ground shake ter ribly. M’e will never forget the one on Saturday. Everyone collapsed. M'oim-n and children screamed with fright, and some could not stand up. People were airaid to go to bed tor two nights, as the '.■-■hakes’ occurred every few minutes, and chimneys v.'e.'e flying 'all roads.’ The new post office is badly shaken, and the school is not sale for llie ciiiltiren t-o be in. Animals were terrified. Fowls ran for shelter, and horses, bolted. Additional services were in Id in the churches, and peopli were to be seen praying m the streets.'
