The earthquake in Syria, few days since,
by which one half of the city of Antioch was
DESTROYED and l 800 human lives lost, follow
ing so close upon the one which occurred IN
California on the 26th ult, has given much in
terest to the subject of earthquakes generally,
while all look eagerly for the details Of the eff
fects by the two Of recent occurrence. In An
tioch, the first note of warning consisted Of an
appalling rambling noise, which was immedi-
ately followed by three ear.Lq1 es, or shocks
in rapid succession, which rocked the build
ings to and fro and caused the people to rush
into the streets in great fright to escape being
crushed by the falling houses. A great por-
tion of the citys walls were thrown down, the
Rivea Orontes swept over q portion OF the
city, bridges were carried away, and great
wretchedness followed in the wake Of this ter
rible calamity.

Which the Human and Which the

The Dubuque Qowa) Telegraph is authori-
ty for the following singular horse story:
On Monday evening last man whose name
we could not learn was seen vending his way
up Julien avenue, leading mare by the bri-
die. He was badly intoxicated, so much SO
that he staggered, and it was sometimes as
much as he could do to maintain his equitib-
riam. The mare kept close watch on his
movements, and whenever he came near fall
ing the mare would grab his coat collar be-
tween her teeth and hold him up. She did so
no less than dozen times in the presence of
several interested spectators. The drunken
man fell down in the street once, but no soon
er had he done so than the animal grabbed the
back of his coat and set him on his feet again.
Then a little beyond McNulty's house the
owner of the mare met an acquaintance of his
who was also drunk. They engaged in con-
versation, and, while talking, bumped against
each other, and the man first alluded to fell.
He was Immediately picked up by the mare,
and, lust as soon as she had finished her lob,
she turned around and let her heels hy in
very savage manner at the man who knocked
her master down. Fortunately her heels
missed the mark.
