ERuPTioN or A VoLcANo IN JAVA
According to accounts just received from
Batavia, n recent and most terrible e.
rypton has Just taken place Of the volcs-
nc Of kloet, which had been inactive ior.
a great number OF years. This unfortu-
nate event had spread dasolat ion and
death throughout the province Of Passar-
oman, one of the most fertile and salubri-
Gus districts Of Borneo. |, was preceded
by frequent AMI irregular detonations,
which were heard at considerable dis
:ance. For several leagues round the
volcano the sky appeared covered with
black clouds, which produced the thick
est darkness in midday; showers Of cin-
ders were thrown up from the crater,
which fell within an hour Afterwards on
the surrounding country, burning to cin-
ders the crops, carbonlzlng the planta-
tons, and rendering the most luxuriant
plains in the world an arid desert. At
the same time ,orrents ofinc ncandescent La
va rushe.i from both siGes OF the volcano.
and inundated the delightful district Of
KedIriie, and enveloped in its waves the
farms and villages, as well as the cattle
and men, who were surprised and overta-
ken by it.

!, A gentleman passing along Coatcs
street, on Friday evening got himself in
to aprecious scrape by doing gallant
turn. Three young girls carrying
hard box, asked him to ring the bell Of
Mr.. A. CarIislc's house. lie complied.
and as he was doing so, the females pot
the box down on the step and ran away.
When the bell was answered. the gentle
man awkwardly situated as he was, had
to make the be,t apology he could under
the circumstances The box was taken
into the house, and beng opened, was
found to contain live baby, two weeks
old. The little stranger was committed
10 the fatherIv care of the Guardians of
the Poor. The gentleman, VIC suppose,
will be plagued for the remainder OF his
life-phiL Times and keystone.

The people of Nantucket have naturally
strong attachment to the island. The great
mass of them would never think of emigrating

fair wages, is making drafts upon the young
and middle-agcd men Of Nantucket.
The above is as applicable to this town as
Nantucket.
