Naples, Marchs.
ERUPTION OF MOUNT VESUVIUs
Mount Vesuvius, which bad been Is
several months in a state of total inacllaa
on Friday, the 2ad February, showed
signs Of Renewed vigor; on the following
night it was in very great activity, andm
Sunday night (the Gath Feb. the volcano
exhibited very grand eruption. A broad
stream OF lava descended the cone, and
seemed to turn off in an angle, and run
down the mountain towards the Resln
and Portici; the flames above The eraIs'
were lofty and continued; an unremltIng
discharge of fiery masses, which Wen
thrown up in The air to great height
sued from the mouth, and the groans ofos
mountain were heardj in Naples, like as
tant thunder. About ten o'clock on ]"
evening, the view from the city was Pl
ticularly striking-the wide river olT
ran on in majestic slowness; innumelsOt
pale torches were seen coasting its sds
on which some bold and curious person
seemed every now and then to be tfsM
log; the flames were reflected acros: y
bay, and threw strong glare on the our
dings and on the faces Of THOUSANDS .'
spectators, who had gathered on the wv
10. Santa Lucia, anG other open placesW
gaze at the magnificent con6agration. =.
On Monday (25th ofFeb. the erup'~
was much less considerable; in the eNs
ing, the princess of Partano, the klS.
wife, assembled to the hermitage o. 81
Salvatore. On Tuesday (s6thl W.

sport au Prince, April 6, 1899.
We have sent this via Aux Cages, in Or
der to furnish you with our Price Current
of this day, and also to mention, that, by
an order Of the President, all the French
are obliged to leave the territory Of the
Republic, in one month, and that after that
time, no French vessels will be permitted
to enter the ports of the Republic. This
will be very advantageous to America, for
we shall be obliged TO be supplied by the
United States with wine and provisions,
which have heretofore been furnished by
France. 1t is reported here that the
French admiral has made an attack upon
SANTANA, in consequence OF the measures
which have been adopted against the
French subjects. The general sentiment
was against the French, and for some days
they were compelled to shut themselves
up ic their own houses to prevent massa-.
ere. The briggs Buen, Ann Maria, Patty
and Sally win sail in few days for New
York. '' ~
