On Thursday last (12th), q few min

severe shock of Earthquake was felt here;
of it's duration we will not pretend to say.
There was no rumbling noise, but the
shock, or may be it would be more pro-
per to say, many shocks within the same
time, were perpendicular, and was not
unlike the humping of a boat or vessel
on rocks. It's severity was sufficient to
cause a suspension of all business for
that day in the town. At a little before
three o'clock, p. M, there was another
shock, but in severity not to compare
with the first. We are now within two
days of four weeks since we had the first
Earthquake, and with occasional excep-
tons, it may be said, that not a day Or
night has passed without a shock being
felt or some rumbling noise heard. It is
true, and most thankful are we hat it is
