A GREAT OVERFLOW OF LAVA.
The volcano was in splendid activity
last week. There were two DAYS OF
violent ebullition and fountains, with
constant overflows of 10 acre lakes.
Rowell, chief Of public works, had a
narrow escape from being caught in an
overflow. On the 18th the lake rose in a
huge slide of fire and carried away the
whole Of It's parapet wall and filled the
entire circuit of Halemaulan pit with
an unbroken sheet of surging lava, of
100 acres in extent. This was the finest
show for two years. A smart shock of
earthquake was felt.

Caledonia, and the premier OF the Vic
