The Gazette of the 24th of Augo
the following—" An intelligent person wh°o4
sited the volcano on Graham's Island, on for
30th inst. states that the eruption has ceasedov
the present, and within the crater there is °0
boiling water, from which the steam arises r,
volumes strongly impregnated with suiPllije,
The island is formed of loam, lava, and pOhe
lava, or rather of the latter, with lumps of ter,
former in some places. The lip of the cr3titer
at the lowest part, is 30 feet high, in 01"ece
places 80 feet, and in the centre 200 feet, vcil
the British union flag is hoisted. Our inforo,

The steam rises- from the sea at some place
outside the island."
The Paper of the 10th states, that " Caput,

Mr. BANINr, the well-known author of t4'
" O'Hara Tales," will add, in the course of a few d,„r",
another of his productions to the stock of public e" Lien

the name of " The Smuggler." The story is undersl°":ol
to comprise the singular adventures of an impetuous Y°",,ty
min, of good family, driven by the pressure of P"veo,
and other calamities to the desperate alternative of r°` ye

scene is said to lie principally on the most picturepe

Some wild and extraordinary local traditions. The ggiipg
