at Pesth, just when the Sunday mass had
begun in the principal church, which was
quite filled with people, a noise like dist
ant thunder or the rolling sound of can
non was heard, which was a few seconds
afterwards followed by a violent shock,
the plaster fell down in large faskes, the
priest left the altar, and the terrified crowd
rushed towards the church door, where
the pressure was such that several persons
were trodden down and injured. The
other church of the borough was likewise
so seriously injured by the shock that it
had, as we'll as the large church, to be
closed. Many houses were much shaken
by the shock, and among the chimneys
it has produced ravages. There are some
who pretend to have felt the first shock
about midnight, and there were about 10
or III more until the afternoon, but they
were too slight to cause any injury. Most
of the population encamped in the open
and spent the night there, which is no
great hardship in this climate at this time
of year.

The Times correspondent, in describing
the first shock, states that ut started from

INTER-COLONIAL SUMMARY 81.

DEMERARA.-We have dates to the 23d
June. The Royal Gazette states that mat
terS had not been dull as usual during
the fortnight, the proceedings ofthe Court
of policy, the Combined Court aud ofthe
several Courts of criminal and civil Jus.
tice having Afforded an agreeable relief TO
the monotOny about which such frequent
complaint had been made. In Legislative
matters, we find that an application had
been made for a loan of $4,000 dollars for
improving the Lamaha canal by which
the city of George Town, as we'll as
several estates were supplied with water.
The application having been opposed was
referred by the Court of Policy to the
Combined Court. At a meeiing,of the
latter body, shortly after, The following
despatch from Downing Street was read:
downing Street, 10th May, 1868.
"Sir.-I have received your despatch
26 of the 18th March, on the subject of
the refusal of the Combined Court to
agree to a Civil List which shall include
the salary of the Chief Justice, until the
address from the Court of Policy to the
Queen, for the removal of the present
Chief Justice shall have been disposed of
by the Judicial Committee of the Privy
Council.
"This action on the part of the Com
bined Court amounts to a prejudgment,
hostile to Chief Justice Beaumont, of a
question which may or may not be de-
cided against him.
"What course her Majesty will take on
this subject will depend upon The report
made 10 her, by the Judicial Committee :
but whatever that report may, be, I couId
under no circumstances advise her Majesty
to accept a Civil List which omitted a
provision for a Chief Justice's Salary, and
