Narratives of Eye-witnesses. The following was. taken from a descrip tion given by one who was present at the theatro:—" It was about a quarter-past nine ■when a friend proposed that we should go to the theatre. At the half-hour tho curtain rnse ; but scarcely were the first words of the comedy spoken when we felt a tremen dous shock, and I was thrown several feet f nwards and fell headlong. Imagine, at * the same time, a roaring noise like that of a heavy railway train rushing at full speed on to an iron bridge. While the shock lasted the ground rose and fell like the sea during n fitorai. What immediately fol lowed 0 I cannot tell; everything weighs upon me still like the night iuuubus— like a horrible dream. I remember only that we were a heap of human beings tumbled together; that the petroleum lamps had been thrown down and were setting fire to the seats ; that for a moment we endeavoured to extinguish the lire, and then out we rushed in a torrent. I next remember holding on to the trunk of a tree, and, on casting my eyes upwards, I saw its branches were tilled with human beings who had clambered up. Pieces of wood were piled together to light bonfires on the shore as a signal for help. I saw all round an indescribably strange crowd-women in their night attire only, old men in their dressinggowns, and naked children. During the night half-clothed women were rushing madly about liko furies among the ruins, with torches in their hands, calling loudly for their dear ones. Every now and then a squalid, unknown figure, with eyes widely staring, would rush up to one, asking, "Have you seen ray husband ':" "Have you seen my son!" A Fenrsomo Experience Another survivor who was present at the theatre gays:—" Although we heard the rumbling, us though of thunder, it was not until the earliest shake of the building that the audience exhibited any alarm. In the first moment there was no shrieking, although consternation was depicted on every face ; but as the opening shock was Hiicceeded by others still more violent, a wild cry of despair broke from most of those present. The lights were extinguished, debris and rafters fell upon and all around us, and the cries of horror in many cases gave place to groans of agony as one after another of the wounded fell. It whs a terrible time. When the shocks ceased, I crept with others out from tho wrecked building,and made my way to the shore. The duat was blinding. Several times I fell ovor masses of masonry and wreckage, and flo-am and again I heard cries for help from under the ruins. At the seashore I found others as terrified as myself seeking to es cape, and awaiting with terror any further development of the earthquake. Seeing that matters remained quiet, we went back to help to extricate and relieve the injured. But it was not until next morning, when the official* wrived from neighbouring towns, and tho troops cams from Naples, that any adequate measures were taken to cope with the difficulties surrounding us. Then the Sappers, aided by willing hands from among tho people, worked ener getically among the ruins, care fully laying out and carrying away the dead, and placing those still living under the doctor's care. It was, however, so ne cessary to proceed cautiously for fear of in juring thoso beneath the wreckage, that only small progress could be made, and at the same time our hearts were almost sickened by the piteous appeals for help. Some were so jammed in that it took hours to reach them, and when at length the obstacles wei'O removed it was in many eases found they had succumbed to their in juries, while in a few instances reason had given way under the fearful strain. The clouds of thick dust suffocated many who were not killed outright at tho first shock." Swallowed up Alive. Tho first indication of the coming disturb ance, according to tho evidence of several survivors, was oy a low, threatening, rumb ling noise, which presently burst forth into A fearful roar, as though heavy artillery were being continuously fired in tho imme diate vicinity. In tho next second the houses were rocked about like a boat on a boisterous sea, and then were shaken into fragments. A fow ; but only a few, inmates reached tho open air beforo tho crash came ; the vast majority lay buried in the ruins. For fifteon seconds tho earth was tossed about by wild upheavals in all directions. Many of tho torror-strieken inhabitants, (lying shrieking to tho shore, wore over whelmed in their flight and buried by the ■falling tenements or tho tremendous quan tities of debris iiung about. The violence of the shock once subsided, nothing could fas heard but the shrieks of the wounded and terrified people. Erery light had been extinguished. A donso cloud of dust, blind ino and suffocating to the survivors, hung over the scone, and, to add to tho horrors of the situation, houses half shaken con tinued to fall upon the miserable people seoking for shelter from tho general ruin. For hours there was little or no relief for the poer sufferers.; Thoso who had escaped were at the outset too jwnic-stricken to render assistance, and when the attempt was mode tho efforts and appliances wore entirely inadequate to cope with the disaster. Throughout that livelong night the cries of thoso 'partially buried rang through tho air, From out of tho earth itself "deep groans were ropeatedly heard, mingled with frenzied cries for deliverance. Some of the houses had fallen so as to make a living tomb for their luckless inmates. At Lacco Ameno not a singlo building can be traced out of the mass of timber aiM stones which now marks where tho pros perous village once stood. Tho inhabitants living in this spot were 1,593, but of all this number only five are known to have escaped destruction. Tho wreck is complete. Some of the houses have disappeared bodily, falling presumably into tho fissure when the earth opened.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

Ravages of the Earthquake. Such a sight as Inchia presents must be utterly unrealisable by any Northern dweller w'.io has never viewed the ravages wrought by an earthquake. The towns are in ruins, masses of masonry and woodwork litter the ground, hore and there a naked wall stands up grim and gaunt; but tho most shocking part of "the fearful spectacle is tho hundreds of corpses, horribly mangled, which lie fixed among the fragments. It has been found impossible to remove them, and all that can bo dono is, for tho' sake of tho living, for whom the decaying remains aro creating a deadly poisonous atmosphere, to destroy them with lime. What memories will those carry with them who hare survived, who in , several instances have been literally dug out' of their living graves ? It is, indeed, torrible to think of people whose houses sank with them without destroying them, , over whose heads the earth closed, leaving thorn conscious and in tho blackness of the tomb, to grope about, and to cry to one another in agonised despair. Wo dare not doubt that there were cases of this kind, from tho circumstance of many persons having beon reached by tho spado and the pickaxe, and lifted, living, out of their hideous prisons. Two young women, for example, named Amalia Cobizio and Maria Lovy.were discovered alive after having been interred for two days. Thirty-seven per sons were in tho saloon of tho Sentinella Hotel when the structure fell, and eleven of these wero rescued. Again, a whole family were dv"- out from a collar in which they had passed thirty-six hours. As in a shipwreck where people looked up in their cabins havo eono to the bottom, and perchance remained alive thoro whilst tho water has slowly drained in, so in this earthquake engulfed structures may have hold living beitigs within their undemolished walls, with just enough air to keep them from being suffo cated, for one dare not think how long before death came—if, indeed, ieathhas even yet visited all—to extinguish their agonies. In a sense it is the stupendous tragedy of Pompeii repeated. Excavators among tho ashes 'which hid for centuries that fair city have como across skeletons in many postures of ease or industry, marking tho swiftness of the fate that overtook them in the bath, tho boudoir, the shop, and turned them' into' stone. At Ischia mutilation attended death ; but there was time for tho frenzied prayer, the wild rush, and for terror to do its paralysing work. Nevertheless, the earth yawned under a world of hie full of activity and pleasure-seeking. The theatre was crowded ; there were music and singing in many a room, loungers in tho streets tasting tho sweetness of the night air, wlien the dreadful roar of tho earth in convulsion rang through the sky, to be instantly followed by the crash and fall of walls, the engulfing of houses, and the destruction of fivo or six thousand human beings. It is a scene that no sensitive heart oan contemplate even in imagination without a shudder : but before the great^eality it is only possible to stand with compassion, as it were, stunned by its magnitude and the mockery which it makes of the strength and wisdom of the " lords of creation."

IRISH AFFAIRS.

Parnell finally declines to visit the United States this year, and the members of Par liament in favour of his views discussed the expediency of sending a delegation thither in aid of the cause. The great national demonstration proposed to be held on Parnell's estate in Wicklow,

on Sunday, 12th Aug.,*was suddenly aban doned. It is said the authorities intimated the gathering would be suppressed. On tho 9th, ono hundred persons of botli sexes petitioned the guardians of the North Dock Union, Dublin, to pay their passage to Canada or the United States, they are unable to get work at home. The Govern ment had decided to provide an additional £100,000 to aid Irish emigration, the money to be taken from the British Exchequer in stead of the Church Surplus Fund.

Special measures were taken in Dublin on the 2nd for the protection of the officials of the Park, as threats of murder had been repeated. Juror Field sold his furniture and his house in Dublin on August Kith, prepara tory to quitting Ireland. An attempt was made to boycott the sale. The Pope lias requested Cardinal MoCabe, Archbishop of Dublin, to summon the chanter of his diocese to nominate a coadjutor, who shall become Archbishop. In the Commons, August 10, during a debate on the Bill for the Payment of the Expenses of the Land Commission in Ireland, Parnell declared that, unless the , deficiencies of the Land Act were speedily remedied, he would lead a deeper and more desperate agitation than any yet witnessed. The Act, he said, had been applied with slowness and inefficiency, very different from the way in which the Coercion Act had been applied. The new and more desperate agitation threatened by Parnell is supposed to refer to the demand for peasant ownership with or without com pensation to land-owners. Speaking of the violent and bitter lan guage lately used freely in the House of Commons, the London "Times" of the 20th ■ says a "sterner demeanour on tho part of ' the House will before long be necessary iv ; view of these revolting excesses." Tho Irish Registration Bill was rejected in the House of Lords on August 21st. While a party of evictora was approaching Renshaw's house, County Down, a volley was fired by parties inside, and a constable and policeman dangerously wounded,

THE FRENCH IN TONQUIN.

London, August 23rd. —A correspondent telegraphs as follows: "On the 17th inst., an attack was made by the French on Hal- Doung, in the direction of Sontoi, a strong post seven miles from Hanoi. Tho French force was 1,500 strong, and tho enemy numbered 10,000. The position was carried, but found untenable, and a portion of the troops returned to tho river, covered by gunboats, while the rest went in the direc tion of Hanoi. There have been terrible floods, causing loss of life in the vicinity of Hanoi.

The French were divided into three columns, 500 each, and marched as far as Sontoi. The right column then advanced along the river bank, supported by gun boats. After going live miles,tho enemy was found intrenched. Ihegunboats fired umong them, and tho intronchments were carried. The troops advanced to carry the forti fied village with bayonets, but tho defence was so vigorous they were thrice repulsed. Toward evening the French, finding their efforts were useless, decided to renew tho attack next morning. The centre of the column mot with faint resistance and oc cupied Hanoi. Here they waited the turn ing movement to be effected by the left column. The latter advanced ulong the road which the late Cnpt. Riviere took. Four hundred Chinese accompanied the column, which reached Hal-Doung, and there found the road barred by a strong intrenchment. The artillery then fired into tho works. Tho column advanced with difficulty, owing to floods. The horses wero unused to harness, and refused to drag- the guns, and tho men took their places in dragging the artillery. "When within tlireo hundred yards of the enemy's intrenchmonts, tho French opened tiro. For a time there was no return made by tho enemy, but after some delay they opened with a tremendous fusilado, which checked the advance of the column. It was now manifest that the posi tion could not bo carried by direct attack. A flank movemont was impossible, so tho French column retreated. Tho onomy, shouting in triumph, issued from their in trenchments and be^an the pursuit. They pressed around both flanks of tho retreat ing columns. The French then opened with artillery, firing shell into the rankH of the pursuing forces, but tho enomy continued to follow thoir retroat. The French preserved excellent order, and carried everything.olf the field, including their killed and wounded. At four in the afternoon the enemy suddenly drew off. The French column reached Hanoi at seven in the evening, completely exhausted. Tho centre column also returned to Hanoi. Tho right column occupios tho position which tho enemy evacuated. A "Times "correspondent at Hong Kong, referring to the movemont of the French in Tonquin, says the enemy wore mainly com posed of Chinese armed with Remington rifles. It is believed tho enemy's loss is small. French doctors complain of want of medicines and stores. The operations of the French have been stopped for the present, ■ tho number of troops being in sufficient to attack Sontoi and Bacniuh, which arc the strongest positions in the delta. Four thousand nativo Christians are being armed. Tho correspondent at Hanoi adds that it is generally admitted tho French will require a forco of 10,000 men to be able to copo with the onemy|successfully. Tho number of guns is also inadequate.

TERRIBLE CYCLONE IN MINNESOTA.

Thirty-four People Killed and Eighty-two

Injured.

Chicago, Augußt 23.—Congressman Mark 11. Dunnell telegraphs the following suc cinct account of tho great calamity at Rochester, Minn., to the " Morning News " from Owatonna, Minn. :—The cyclono struck Rochester about 0.30 o'clock in the afternoon on Tuesday. It lasted a minute and a half, and largely spent its forco on the north half of the city. All the dwelling houses but two on the north side of the rail road track, embracing one entire ward, were wholly destroyed, and most of thorn blown to atoms. On tho same sido, one (lour mill was demolished and anotlior un roofed, and a large foundry wholly demolished. Tho destruction from tho depot north was substantially complete. The bridge over the Zumbrota river, near tho depot, was wholly destroyed. The destruction on the south sido of the track wa? very great, but not so sweeping. Tho Court-house and Cook's Hotel were un roofed. All the churches woro badly damaged. Over 100 buildings on tho south sido of the track are more- or less damaged. A Scene of Horror. Darkness set in soon after tho tornado, and the scene was terrible. Twenty-five dead bodies wero takon from the ruins, many of them parents with children. Not loss than 250 buildings were wholly or rmr tially ruined. The loss is $300,000. Tho loss of life was very great—twenty-fivo wore killed and five havo died since. Some severity of the injured aro now being cared for by citizens and frionds. Of those in tho hospital about fifty were terribly cut and mangled by flying timbers and pieces of wood. Two persons woro killed at Kasson. Cattle in largo numbers woro killed, drain in stack and shock was blown away, and generally not a straw was left behind; It is impossible to give a moredetailed account at this 'time. St. Paul sent 85,000 to the sufferers. Owatonna ■will Bond $1,000; other cities and towns will send relief. The poor of tho city are tho greatest sufferers. Another Account. An eye-witness says that at G. 45 p.m. on Tuesday the southwest quarter _of the heavens assumed a sickly, greenish tint, then changed to copper and then to bronze. Next it was noted that a dreadful inverted cone, with a height seemingly immeasurable and an appalling murkincss, was approach ing with tho speed of a cannon ball. It camo down tho valloy of Silver Creek, and when within half a mile of tho city its roar could be hoard. Fully 300 feot in tho air it rose, and in its whirling mass were trees and stones, animals and debris of every con ceivable description. The dome of the Courthouse melted from view, trees were snapped and twisted and lifted bodily into the air with tons of earth clinging to their roots. Fifteen minutes of this, and the monster had ceased its work. By 8 o'clock the stars crept out and there was calm and silence save as broken by the groans of the wounded and dying. All night long, by the fitful light of the lanterns, and later added by the moon, citizens toiled to render succour to the distressed. By sunrise those of the wounded who had friends were taken to a large hall on Broadway. The wounded were in a horrible plight, generally cut and bruised about the upper part of the body, and childish faces were seen with wounds so ghastly that even physicians shuddered as they used the sponge ami needle. It is believed tho cyclono formed aoout six miles south of Dodge Center, a small town in an adjoining county, and travelled from the south-west in'a north-easterly direction, passing near Kasson _ and through Rochester or St. Charles in V\ mona county.

Aftor tho Disaster. Thursday morning dawned bright and beautifu'. At an early hour strangers began to pom in from all directions, and by noon the streets were crowded with a surging mass of humanity. The expression of sad ness on every face told more plainly than the fluttering crape or tolling bells the tale of mourning, desolation, and death. The number killed by the cyclone of Tuesday is now fixed at thirty-four and the wounded at eighty-two, of whom nine are fatally hurt. The wind swept diagonally across the town, covering a space a mile and three-quarters in length by three quarters of a mile in width, in which all the buildings, some 300 in number, were virtually destroyed with thoir contents. It is now believed the damage will reach fully §500,000.

THE DORIC.

On the fourth page of this issue will be found full particulars concerning the arrival of the s.s. Doric, with passenger lists, reports, &c. She brings 590 passengers, of which number 270 are Government immi grants. Almost all of the immigrants are for Auckland, only about twenty being booked for the South. In a summary fur nished us by Mr Brophy, Immigration Officer, the immigrants are classed us follows:—Married men, 27; married women, 27 ; single men, 37 ; single women, J'JO ; boys, 23 ; girls, 32 ; infants, 10. In the list of immigrants given on the fourth page, two names were omitted, viz., Christina Blaikie, housemaid ; and Louise Baker. Tho Doric's cargo for this port (as per import list) amounts to 1,700 tons, valued at £13, COO. She has also cargo for Southern ! ports, viz., to the value of £ IS, 700 for Can terbury, to the value of £9,000 for Otago and £21,700 for Wellington, making the, total value of her cargo 103,000. She Is Released from Quarantine Shortly after ono o'clock this afternoon, Dr. Philson received authority from Wel lington to release the Doric from quarantine, and he accordingly communicated with her i commander, Captain Metealfe, as speedily as possible. Tho Doric, therefore, came up tho harbour during tho afternoon and berthed at the end of Queen-street Wharf. Nearly all of her passengers have gone ashore in company with friends, and we have not yot hoard of any having been received at the Immigration Depot. The Doric will commence discharging early to morrow.
