The Great Earthquake af Meudozn-.
5000 People Killed.
Correspondence OF the New York World.1

BUKHos AIRES, April g.
One Of those terrible commissions of nature
which so frequently visit the slopes of the An
des, has 1ately fallen with fearful effect upon
confederation.
The once fair city Of Mendozs Is razed to the
ground By frightlul conTulsion OF the earth I
Her massive]y walled converts, churches and
ediflces have mingled their dust and ruins with
those Of the meanest huts.
The details, which have gathered from the
most authentic sources, and translated, are ~
follows:
On the evening Of the Goth Of March, at s1<
O'Clock, With a serene sky, mud without any
appearances Of . storm, with the exception Of
9 heavy atmosphere, the earthquake broke
forth With . powerful detonatlon, burying
under the ruins the 1000 houses which the
city contained, and no lcas than 6,000 OF its
III fated inhabitants. Not house remained
standing! Such was the violence OF the frat
ehock, which lasted from two to three min
ute, that the earth appeared to hare lost It's
equilibrium; and when it passed, q wild ma IS
OF wreck, dcsolation md Voc occupied the
site Of Mcndoza, and gave evidence Of tho
fearful fhroes Of matter which occur when
the earth takes breath. For two days, at in
tcIyale, eight tremblings were felt
Many tfssnres were opened in the earth, but
the g1eater part Of them closed agaiu.
After the shock 1t vas noticed that In many
surface, but had alone LETT yestiges Of their
presence. For league around the city there
Was not wall, not even ruin left standing /!
rerzthing erected BY maj. is ouerzArocnf
More than five thousand women, with rent
costumes and heart lacerated, united In the
plaza of the city during thst horrible night,
and On their bended knees raised their voices
to heaven, petitioning for " Mercy for Men,
do:ar'
To add to these horrors of dcsolation and
woe, the Gauches from the suburbs entered
the city, and commenced pil1aging everything
which came IN their track-loading horses and
mules with their plumber which the earthquake
had left to their rapacious hands.
What remained Of the population Of Mcndo-
n retired to the public park, and there formed
o lind Of eneampment; but on the Esd ult.,
such was the Infection produced by so many
corpses in putretaction, that the Governor
gave orders thdt al should desert Mat ,nhich once
was The city Of Mendoza.
The direction Of the earthquake was from
west to east, from which It is Inferred that II
must hare been very strong IN Chill Bone
travellers who came from Chill by the pass oi
Uepa11ata experienced an extremely violent
commotlon, followed By shower Of ashes.
