The Great Earthquake in the

A letter from ST. Thomas, written on
the l4lh Of February, and received
here via Havana, by the steamship Ala
bama, Capt. Winde contains the follow
in statement.
CAT half past ten o'clock, on the 9th
Of February, we had a severe and last
ing earthquake, Git is said to have last
ed three minutes) but which caused lit
tie injury, only a few houses having
been damaged. Antigua and Gauda
Ioupe have suffered more severely
There is not house left on Antigua, nor
on that part Of GaudaIoupe called Grand
terre. The churches, Notifications, and
even the very strongest built mills, have
shared the same. The loss OF lives in
Antigua is only 8 or l0-but IN the des-
lruction Of the city Of Point Petre-it
is believed that 5000 persons persisted.
Up to the time OF the departure Of
the vessel that brought us this disas-
trous news, 1000 bodies had already
been dug out Of the ruins and thrown
into the sea. Immediately after the
earthquake, a fire broke out, which
lasted several days, and destroyed what
had been left by the earthquake; and
Point Petre, certainly the finest city in
the West Indies, is nothing but a heap of
ruins.
