Tiik Earthquake at .Memphis. From the
Memphis papers it appears that the quaking cf the tin;
earth on the 4th inst. was greater at that place than
here. The Enquirer says: uIt was the severest shock
we imagine which has been felt in this region since
the 'Great Shakes' of 1S1I." The Eagle says
"People fled into the streets and orirs and lamcnta
ti.ns of many horror-stricken men and women were
heard to fill the air.
The shock lasted about two minutes and reached
its most agitating period at the end of the first half
minute' when itgradually died away in adismal rum-
bling sound apparently moving tolhe south-cast and
proceeded Irom the north-west.
The tops ofseveral chimneys were shaken down
the bricks filling inside- and with the reeling of the
houses and quaking of the earth frightfully alarming
the inhabit.-.nts. A great many brick walls are seri-
ously cracked and sunk windows broken and a cot-
ton shed naturally crazy fell down shortly after the
shock. The shock occurred at Memphis U0 minutes
before 9 o'clock L. 11 Tines Atlc.
The same shock was felt at Nashville and other
places.
