WORTHING, A PRI L 8.

This highly-distinguished watering-place has, by
virtue of • recent Act of Parliament, undergone
various conspicuous improvements under the able
directions of our Town Commissioners; we parti-
cularise the elevation of the Esplanade, for its pro-
minent accommodation, extending from east to
west nearly • mile in length of unmolested prome- '
node; the new foot atone pavement, with an addi-
tional number of lamps, generally adopted through-
out the town; and facility of the new royal patent
coaches to and horn the metropolis, in six hours,
which has rendered it not inferior in point of at-
tractions to any watering-place in the kingdom, and
we may with infinite propriety designate. it the
ewpo►iam of accommodation and fashion. Several
large houses are already engaged for the season,
end from the numerous applications and influx of
company we anticipate a bumper season.

Accounts have been received at Copenhagen from
Iceland. While the winter in the East has been re-
markably mild, it set in early in Iceland with great
rigour. Vast quantities of snow fell, and the north-
ern and eastern coasts were wholly blocked up
with floating ice. In the night of the 20th of De-
cember the mountain of Wields Jokel, to the south
of East Heels, which has been at rest ever since
1612, begin to emit fire, so that the ice with which
it was covered suddenly burst with a dreadful
crash, the earth trembled, and immense masses of
snow rolled from the summit of the mountain. a
height or 5,500 feet. Ever since a large column
of fire has been rising from the mountain, which
threw out vast quantities of ashes and stones, some
of the latter, weighing from 50 to 80 pounds, bring
cast to the distance of a German mile (five English
mile.). The mountain continued to burn till the
23d, but at that time the ice had again collected
round the crater. The weather was very stormy
■nd unsettled during the eruption.—(Hambargk
