THE FARTHOQUAKES IN GREECE

The scene ef the earthquakes of the 22od ult. was that part of Eastern Greece mainly comprised in Atticu, Boetia, Locris and Phoeis and the Island of Eubcea or Negropont. The greatest destruction was caused in the district of Chalcis and Atal- anti. But the shocks were distinctly felt at Athens. The Parthenon has sustained injuries, a large splinter having fallen from the shaft Ofene of the northern col- umns, and other damage to the building being also recorded. The cloisters of the Byzantine church at Dauphine (a yillage Lot far from Athens) have also suffered considerable injury, The centre of the disturbance was the district between Thebes, Livadia, Atalanti and Chalcis. Thebes, so frequently before a victim of Atalanti has been devastated, but, happily, the in- habitants escaped. The monasteries of Proshyna Hagios Martinos, near the strait of Negropont, nave been destroyed. A pier at Pelli sank into the sea. The church tower at Chalcide fell and the old Venetian fortifications were largely dis- mantled. The shocks were felt as far as Skyros and other #gean islands, but Zante and the other Ionian is!seds on the west- ern side of Greece, which fell a prey to the earthquake of last year, have net been affected. Although it was hoped that the mortality reported in the panic of the early shocks would prove greatly exagg- erated, there seems to be little doubt as to the large number of deaths. The lit of persons known to have perished was set down at little short of two hundred. The number of persons injured was correspond- ingly large, and until the weataer mode- rated crowds of refugees suffered from cold and hunger. The Government took prompt measures to relieve the distress. The Minister of the Interior repaired at once to Thebes and made the tour of the afflicted localities; while the King, with the Duke of Sparta and Prince Nicholas, repaired to Atalanti without delay in his yacht. Greece has been visited by earth quakes from a very early period. In the presen: century the Turco-Hellenic terri- itory,en both sides of the zean, has been visited by nearly 200 more or-less serious earthquake shocks. This number is only surpassed by the record of the Italian mainland and islands for the same period—390.
