The New York Papers state that " the City of C.attagua,ea-
pital of the province of Costa Rica was totally destroyed by an
earthquake on the 7th of May, 1822. The City contained about
15,000 inhabitants, and although not a house was left standing,it is
extraordinary that not a life was lost. The earthquake commenced
at eleven o'clock at night. A vast quantity of gold and silver
has been discovered by the inhabitants, near the ruins of the
city, brought into view by the earthquake."
'We suspect there must be some mistake in this paragraph,
if not as to the city detroyed, at least in its population. There
are two cities of the name of Cartagua, or Cartago; the one
which is the capital of the province of Costa Rica, those* fan•
merly rich and flourishing, is at present reduced to a miserable
village, with very few inhabitants. The other Cartago_itit±
prnince and government of Popayan, and contains a pop
of between 50u0 and 6000 persons. ."
