E EARTHQUAKE.

Tue New York Herald commenting upon the late earthquake, says it is satisfied that investigation will prove that all earthquake shocks follow lines connecting points on

the earths surface marked by volcanoes. And further, that the severity of the shock increases in proportion as the surface indi- cations, such a3 voleanves represent, give evidence of a high or low degree of per manent disturbance. It says: * It will be remembered that when the news of the ar

of this continent was announced recently, we stated that the course of the disturbance was from Japan, through the Sandwich [slands to the South American coast. Latest reports from these regions have verified our surmise. There is, no doubt, that this latest shaking of the earth is due to cases similar ‘o those that produced the great disturbance that traversed the Pa cific Ocean, an? ruined several South Ame ericin cities.
