WAIMEA, HAWAII, Dec. 4, 1853.
Mr.. EDITOR Noticing in your issue of Nov. 24th
an account of the earthquake, and its being felt on
the island of Oahu. perhaps you would like to know
if Waimea is still above water. The shock was felt
here about three O'Clock on the morning of Monday,
the 1st of November, and lasted about ten seconds.
1t was preceded by a heavy, rumbling sound, like
distant thunder, which lasted about the same length
of time. Nor was that all about a half an hour
after we felt another, not quite so severe, but it made
the tree tops tremble. As there was no wind, we
could hear the leaves shake over the house. The
bed on which | slept shook like a man with the fever
and ague. 1t made some of the natives commence
saying their prayers, and the truth is, Mr.. Editor, l
felt something like it myself. NJ. b.

THURSDAY. DEC. Is

The fall season NAV now be considered as
closed. \ few ships still remain in port, but
these are leaving us as rapidly as they can
procure supplies. All the whalers expected here
this fall, with one or two exceptions, have ar
rived the only vessel anxiously looked for
being the Hawaiian brig Wailud, last reported
in the Arctic with some 400 barrels OF oil.
We are able therefore to make up for this mail
u full exhibit of the North Pacific whaling
fleet. Our table on the fourth page has been
carefully revised, and presents the details OF
the catchings of each ship. 1t should be stated
i'm this connection that the amounts hailed
often differ from the exact fgures-sometimes
more and sometimes less. As a rule, we give
the highest. reliable figures, for generally ships
hail below their actual catch. The list en-
braces 2lS vessels, classed rs follows
American, including - VIM. Tell
Hawaiian, Gneiuding ." Raith,' condeinnedG
Bremen and oLienburg, 2

Of the above fleet, there have arrived at the
various ports of these islands this fall l91 yes

OF these five are sperm whalers, bringing
into port, as this seasons catch, 1900 barrels
of speen oil and 1872 are right whalers, hail
ing, as tie seasons catch, l450 barrels sperm,
IO2, $50 barrels whale oil, and l,312,I 700 pounds
bone. The following table exhibits the annual
totals and average from 1852 to 1859 inclusive.
The average for this season has been 535 bar
rels of oil, and 6.S02 pounds bone. This aver
age includes American, French, German, Ha-
