master and others visited the place at Otter
Pond, where the slide occurred, yesterday af-
ternoon, and found the damage was much less

sixty-five feet high at that place (from the bot
tom of the pUnd). One side of the road-bed
sloughed off, which it will take two days, per.
haps, to repair. At any rate, the regular train
will be running over it on Monday. The regu-
lar train yesterday passed over this place at
quarter past IL o'clock. The earthquake &C.
Cured in about fifteen minutes from that time
and soon after the slide was discovered There
