San Francisco,says: "The earthquake waves increased in height yes- terday. The height of the waves was one footrand time about 40 minutes between crests. It is suppoeed that these are waves caused by the earthquake that destroyed Aujes and other towna in Java. There waa a similar ocourrence on the 23rd of December, 1854, when the town of Simoda, Japan, -was destroyed, and a Russian frigate overwhelmed. These waves were recorded on three gauges then _med. On the Pacifie Coast disturbances of a like character also were recorded in August, 1868, when a succession of terrible earth- quake waves broke upon the coast of Peru, -destroyieg towns and landing a United States war vessel high and dry. SOMETHING ABOUT PREVIOUS EARTHQUANES. The only two modern earthquakes which were attended With anything like the loss of life estimated in the above report took place respectively at Calabria, in 1783, and at Lisbon, in 1755. _The first is reported lay some historians to have caused over 100,000 deaths; but the guess was at best only an approxiiiaate one, and it is highly probable that the figure was much exag. gerated. The same discrepancy of calcu- lations exists regarding the -Lisbon earth. quake, which is generally credited, however, with having destroyed 60,000 people in the space of aix minutes. The earliest earthquake of whioh we read is eaid to have occurred in Syria, during the reign of Ahab, about 900 B.C., and the second a' hundred, 'years later, during the reign of Uzziah. Another is reported by Joophus to have occurred at the time of the battle of Actium, 31 B.C., when Judea was almost devastatad. The earthquake recorded in the New Testament as having occurred at the death of Jesus Christ is said to be almost paralleled by a similar disturbance in South America about 1835, which was also accompanied by a sudden-dErkness. The ancient city of Antioch suffered much from similar catastrophes; indeed, it is recorded, thbugh on rather questionable authority, that TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND PEOPLE perished during a. shock which took place there in 526 A. D. Sixty yeare later a single shock is said to have destroyed 30,000 persons at the F ame place. In the United States, in 1811, a great earthquake occurred at New Madrid, Mo., extending over 300 miles. The most severe shock ever felt in the Middle and Eastern States was that of 1755. Canada's most re. markable earthquake on record began in 1870, somewhere in the region 50 to 100 m. N. E. of Quebec From this it spread to New Brunswick, was felt throughout Quebec and Ontario, and finally reached Chicago. The earthquake was also heard in New York. The velocity of its shock was about 14,000 feet per second. THE DISTURBED DISTRICT. The island of Krakatoa is one of the Dutch dependencies in---the--Strait-of- Sunda, lying midway between the extreme westerly point of the island of Java and the southeasterly part of the island of Sumatra. It is about forty miles from the garrison of Anjier. a fort on the Strait of Sunda, on the west coast of Java; sixty miles from Serang, the principal town of the Bantam (Java) Resideacy, and 120 miles from the capital city and seat of the Dutch Government • in the East Indian Archipelago, Batavia. It is about Bias or seven miles in length and four or five miles in width. Like the surrounding islands of the East Indian group; it is very mountainous and volcanic. Upon it the Dutch Government have established a fort with a small garrison, which is in 'almost a straight line with Anjter, Java. IN TI1E STRAITS. The Strait of Sunda is about sixty miles in width and serves t� -connect the Indian Ocean with the Java Sea, which is connec- ted with the Chinese Sea by means of numerous passages or straits between the numberless islands immediately to the north of Java and Sumatra. ,,The island, of Krakatoa is surrounded by groups of little islands, many of which are nameless. The principal one is known as " Dwars der Weg-," or " Thwart the Way." It is so called because as the straits narrow be- tween the southeasterly portion of Sumatra' and the westerly coast of Java they are divided alnaost in the centre by this islaaid, which, from its location, seriously interferes with navigation._____ Dutch style. It has exchanges, churches hospitals, mosquea, gymnasiums, Chines temples and botanical gardens. Its harbo ' is of great beauty and may be safely etttered by the largest vessels. It is the great centre of oonanaerce in the Indian Archipelago , and absorbs* the greatest portion of the trade of the entire- Wand EXPORTS. 1 ItS chief exports are coffee, sugar, pepperr Indigo,llidss cloves, nutmegs, spices, till rattans and atrack. It hag a population' of about 100,000, who engage in cultivating the product e of the soii and exchanging them for the imports. ef/Europe and Amei. rioa. Of the popnlation about 3,500 are WNW- 30,000 "Chinese and the balance natives: '• It is connected by rail with the town of Buitenzorg, thirty -ix miles south of Batavia, where is situated the palace of the Governor-General, a prison, and one of the finest botanical gardens in the world! The wily other railway in the island is in the easterly part and runs from Sourabaya; on the coast, to Malang, in -the heart of the .mountains, about sixty miles distant. I The principal- cities of the island ate Cheribon, TagalsSamarang and Sourabaya. .Location ot the Disturbance. Krakatoa, the island on which the :new and destructive volcano is situated, is an islandaln .the Straits of Sunda; and is about six or aeven miles long and four or five miles brokl. Anjier, mentioned in the above despatch, is a town on the west coast of Java. It is sa prosperous town of some 5;000 inhabitant/3, and is defended bg a fort" and garrison. The other towns destroyed are in the same vicinity, but smaller, the whole'region being one at the most densely peopled 'countries in the world. The population of Java and Madura'. together is 337 'persons to the_square mile: The Straits of Sunda is a passage bei tween. the Island ef Sumatra and Java, from the Indian Ocean to the sea of Naval Ifs breadth is from 70 to 90 miles. „ A Vaiiey oi Death.. In Java itself there is a crater at the eastern end of the island which contains a lake about one-fourth of a mile -longs strongly impregnated with sulphuriacid! From this lake there issues a stream of water so destructive' to life that even fish - cannot live in the sea near its mouth. Another extinct volcano, called Gamy° Upas or the Vale of Poison, is held in horror by the natives. Every living creature 'that, enters it drop's dead, and the soil is: covered. with the caroases of deer; birdd and even the bones of men, killed -by -the - carbonic acid gas which lies at the bottonal of the valley. LEAD POISONING,: — Various Things Behiud Which Danger Four members of a family in thia-oier were poisoned a few days ago by the usedf canned meats. A physician was called, and the sufferers are now doing well. This one instance suggests the fa,ot that a large amount of slew poisoning is going on here as well -as in other cities. Tin cans con- taining fruit and fruit acids ar,e sealedwith lead, which is dissolved by.the contents of the ban, and ill the form of Carbon.ate of lead is taken int!) the system. - The higher priced canned meats, would seem to offer owing.to their cost,- some security against the possibility of lead poisoning, but the fact is that as little care is taken in their preparation as in that of fruit's. The organic acids which remain in the cooked' meat are quite • as powerful in theses:dud= of lead as are, the fruit: acids. ' Vinegar, • which isoften put aup-in-the ' tin cans,---teadily dissolves the s It solders and therconseqn, nee is that. theme who use canned meats na .fruits live in constant danor.of leadapoisoning.
