The Java Calamity.

The series of terrible disasters which
has continued through the entire year
thus far with startling loss, frequency and
diversity, eliminated August rs, in the
most awful visitation known for cen
turtles, the volcanic eruption and tidal
wave in that region of the Pacific ocean
of which the island of Java is the centre.
So overwhelming has been this catas-
trophe that mountains have sunk to the
level of plains, islands have disappeared,
large tracks of country with their entire
population have been submerged, and no
one left to tell the tale. The loss of life
foots up into the tens of thousands, and
the full extent of the calamity is not yet
determined. 1t is estimated that nearly
one hundred thousand human beings
persisted in this unparalleled event. Our
readers will find in the supplement to the
TRANSCRIPT a brief but compact refer
ence to Java, giving some of its physical
features and resume of the appalling
calamity which recently befel it. Before
such an overwhelming catastrophe, the
accidents in our land however sad, sink
into comparative inslgnifcance.
