by the residents of the city, truly awful Thus far
there have been found in the ruins and about the grounds
2S dead bodies, and lO5 wounded, four of which died

No damage was done to the vessels at anchor. Tho
dead bodies of three coolies blown through the air

Of the disaster mostly coolies and among them the loss
of life and limb appears to have been the greatest Of
the military guard of tho magazine, consisting of
geant and sixteen men, only four remain. Many bodies
arc doubt under the ruins and in the waters of the
harbor.

some twenty buildings, several of which finished

Nothing now remains but of stones and rubbish

rendering the gas works for the present entirely useless,

be lighted. Every residence is less affected by
the shock Several buildings sustained great damage.
Among the number the residence Of Don Domingo
