EARTHQUAKE IN WESTERN NEW
YORK.
On 'Tuesday morning last a very percep
tible shock of an earthquake was experi
enced in the town of Alden, Albion, Alex
inder, Attica, Ratavia.Hclhany, Daricn and
Elba.
A gentleman from Albion states that about
8 o'clock in the morning, while he was nl
breakfast, something seemed lo stiike the
side of thu house, janing it all over, raiding
the dishes on the table. The sound then
passed on with a deep rumbling noise like a
cat passing over a railroad. At the west
nd of the lown. a large brick house was
racked ihrough in Iho rentre.and some
of the ?toncs in the abutments of the canai
fell out.
Mr Foiled, assistant pnslmaater at Rata
via, says the shcek was lolt there at 7 mm
utes past 8, and laMcd about two seconds
A gentleman from Elba estimates the do
ration of the shock in lhat place at half a
minute, and describes il as hard enough to
jar open several doori. It came apparent
ly from tho southwest and passed lo the
lorthcast
wholly inexplicable.
