BARODA, DATED JUNE ‘26.

"On the 16th, about seven o'clock, r. m. the whole
of the City,'and arourd it, were thrown into the
greatest consternation, by a very severe shock of an
earthquake, which continued, without intermission.
between two and throe minutes. I was at a friend's
at the time ; w e were sitting in his upper bungaloe,
which rocked so violently, 1 really thought it would
have fallea before we could tics below stairs. The
next morning, about eleven °clock, we experienced
another, though slighter, convulsion.
" On the Itith, we felt two more, one at eleven,
A. N. and the other at twelve at night: and on the.
23th, we also had tvs o more shocks ; Con knows it
it is yet all over. It appears to be going tiom
youth to north. At Palla. pore it was accompanied
by a noise in the ca: th just like thunder.
" Its ravages at Ahmedabad have been consider-
able. The two large 'Minarets, near the Junuth Mu-
seed in that City, are overthrown. One of the gates
of the Town has fallen down, and nearly three hun-
dred houses. The fort of Rampoor, near Pullgarde,

. -
is nearly demolished."
EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM ANJAR, DATED JUNE 17.

" It is with sincere regret that I have to inform
you, that this place was visited by an earthquake
yesterday evening, at ten minutes before seven o'clock.
The effects of the shock, which lasted nearly two
minutes, have been the levelling of the fort wall to
the ground; riot 100 yards of the wall remain in any
one spot, and guns, towers, &c. all hurled in one mass
of ruin. The destruction of the town has been dis-
taessing and awful : not a quarter of the houses are
standing, and those that do remain are all in ruins.
I cannot yet state the particulars of the losses, but I
may in one word say, that a flourishing population
has been reduced in one moment to wretchedness and
misery. I fear we shall have to lament the loss of
upwards of 100 people, besides those hurt. Reports
from the country state similar disasters in all the vil•
lages sound about; and letters fiom Bhooj inform
t-i, that that fort is much in the same condition as
Anjar. Slight shocks still continue to be felt, and I
shall, on the first leisure moment, report such parti-
culars as I may be able to collect."

An elegant Palace is building for General MAt-r-
LAND, to the right of the Fortrzcs, and opposite the
Grand Parade, in Corfu. Most of the matarials are
brought from Malta.
The following is an Extract of a Letter from Cu-
racoa, dated
.September 20 Twelve of the most
respectable inhabitants of Rio de la Hacha have
been arrested and thrown into confinement, in conse-
quence of private correspondence they had held with
Sir GREGOR MCREGOR having been found in the
baggage of that Chief at the capture of Portobello,
recommending him, after he should have established
himself on the Isthmus, to send a part of his forces to
take possession of Rio dc la Hacha, where they would
be received with open arms. Cumana has been
abandoned by the English, finding they could make
no impression, and they have marched to join the
main Army under HomyArt. Two trar.sports had
arrived from Ireland at Juan Grego, about the Ist of
September."

The near approach of the Meeting of the Chambers
is naturally the source of a good deal of specula-
tion in all the Journals, respecting the course which
affairs are likely to take. It appears, from all we can
collect, that Ministers will have a stout battle to fight
in defence of their system and their places ; but it
appears quite as certain, that it can have no other
issue than in another triumph over their opponents.
The Ministry have just had a farther accession to
their strength, in the election of M. DEVAUX, for the
Department of the Cher. M. Dteaux, it is true, is
no Ministerialist ; but neither is he a Royalist; and
to be a Liberal, which M. DEVAUX is, is to belong
to a party u hose comparative neutrality is a real
tower of strength to Ministers. The votes of the
Ministerial Party on this occasion are a clear proof
of this being the case. At the first scrutiny the votes
vete, for M. DEVAUX, 221—M. DE PENGY PUYVA
Lti, the Candidate of the Royalists, 137—M. BEAU-
GHETON, the Ministerial Candidate, 1.11. None of the
Candidates having obtained an absolute majority, the
total number of votes being 495, a second scrutiny
took place, when, the Ministerial Party having trans-
ferred their support to
.M. DEVAUX, he polled more
than the absolute majority of votes, and was deciarcd
duly elected.
A traveller, who has recently arrived at nu scales
from Port-au-Pt ince, has furnished the foilouing de-,
tails respecting tl.is ancient French Colony : The ,
English ate in high favour. General 13ovan is be.
loved by the people and by the troops. Frenchmen
arc not permitted to fot m establishments, until they
have naturalized themselves as Haytians. BoYER
displays great talents for government. By his eco-
nomy, he has relieved the Treasury from embarrass-
ment, and been able to provide for the equipment of
an army of 10,000 men, which may easily, when re-
quired, be increased to 20,000. It is believed that
Bolan has formed the project of attempting an inva-
sion of the part of the Island subject to CIIRISTOPHE.
The King .f SPAIN, in order to signalize his nup-
tials by " a trait of Royal clemency," has, by an
Edict of the 25th October, pronounced the pardon,
first, of all prisoners throughout the kingdom, who
have not committed the crimes of high treason, mur-
der of ecclesiastics, coining, fire-raising, blasphemy,
theft, subornation of perjury, and malversation in
public office; excepting also such vagabonds as have
been condemned to the army or to the hospitals: and,
second, of all guilty and rebellious fugitives who shall,
if in Spain, within the space of six months, and, if
beyond Spain, within one year, present themselves
before some judicial authority, and claim the benefit
of this amnesty.
.Of the progress of the plague there are no farther
accounts, except that many of the principal mer-
chants in Cadiz are numbered among its victims.
The King of SWEDEN, desirous of giving a proof
of the friendship which is daily consolidating, more
and more, between that country and Britain, has ex-
empted all British subjects from the general obliga-
tion imposed on foreigners visiting Sweden, of wait-
ing till passports are received from Stockholm. It
is henceforth to be sufficient that they have passports
from the Fo reign-office, London, or from the Swedish
or English Minister at the place they last left.

A most dreadful earthquake was experienced on
the 16th of June last, in the territory of Kutch, a
country situated to the north-west of Bombay, by
which several towns and villages were entirely de-
stroyed. The City. Of Bhooj was reduced to a heap
of ruins, and two thousand of the inhabitants buried
by the catastrophe. Its walls being composed of a
stone of a sandy nature, the whole, front the effect of
the severe concussion of the earth, crumbled in a
mass, obliterating and confounding the site of several
of the narrow streets, so that -the wretched survivors
knew not where to dig, in order to search for the bodies
of their buried friends and relatives. The British
troops (we believe, those under the command of Sir
W. Kant) were encamped in the midst of this ter-
rible convulsion of nature, and saw the city of Bhooj
on one side of them, and the fortress of Boejia on
the ether, wholly destroyed, but escaped, fortunately,
without material injury. Among the towns that
have suffered, Mandavie, Moondar, Anjar, and
Baroda, are more particularly mentioned. - The
,earthqoake extended to the northward as far as

the City of Ahmedabad, where
considerable: two large minarets, one (.4.
and 300 of its houses, were thrown down.
