IMPORTANT FROM VENEzUELA.-TKe
Earthquake at Cumana-Asctm Destruc-
ton Of Life and Property.-This calami-
ty, so terrific at all times in Southern
countries, has proved far more disas-
trous in the present instance than the
first reports gave reason to suppose
Private letters to July 90 from Puerto
Cabello, received by the last convey
ance, give US unwelcome particulars,
as they prove that the earthquake OF
the 18th of July at Cumana was one OF
the most disastrous that ever occurred
in South America. The present un-
happy state of civil war in Venezuela is
the cause of delays in communications,
as the province of Cumana is the only
one now holding out against the govern
ment, the rebellion having been else
where suppressed. The news brought
to Puerto Cabello by the crew of a ma
tional vessel, the Bolivar, who had
deserted and joined the rebels.
The first shock of the earthquake
was so violent, that, although it con-
tinued its vibrations only two minutes,
it destroyed in that short space of time,
every house but one in that principal
part of the city, called Puente Arriba.
Many of the inhabitants of the portion
which contained the dwellings of the
more opulent were buried in the ruins.
There can be no doubt that some of the
succeeding details are liable to be ques-
toned on account of the channel by
which the news was brought to Puerto
CabellO; but they generally received
credit among respectable men at that

against Cumana, offering to submit and
asking assistance for the sufferers. 1t
