CAFE TOWN, CAFE OF GOOD Hope, DEc.6,.—
The night before last. the inhabitants of_this town,
and the country around, for the distance of ten or
twelve miles, were alarmed by a violent earthquake;
nearly every house in Cape Town has been da-
maged, but not one has fillet' on Robin Island ;
however, on a small spot at the mouth of Table Bay,
every house has been thrown down. The ships in
the Bay were so much agitated, that some Officers
were thrown out of their c-ots. The noise and tre-
mulous motion have recurred several times since,
' and during the two last nights all the inhabitants
have slept in tents pitched in those parts within the
town most distant from houses.

The body of a man, apparently about sixty years
of age, dressed genteelly in black, was picked up
on Sunday evening in Chelsea reach, and conveyed
on shore to be owned. The deceased was disco-
Vered ..by a letter found in his pocket to be a Mr.
Clieaveney, a man of independent property, who
had' lodgings at Hammersmith, and who was for-
merly a cutler in the city. He was ainan of eccen-
tric habits, and at intervals was insane. He diank
'four glasses Of • brandy and water at a public-house
at Mitlbauk on Saturday afternoon, and he was af-
;.terlWards seen wandering on the bank. ,A valuable
watch Was found in his pocket, but no money.'
