A singular occurrence to-, k

tion or land, amounting to 120
English acres, and 60 feet deep,
slid with a tremendous crash, in
to the rivet Nid, about a quarter
of a mile from Store Foss This
happened during a hard frost,( 13
deg. Reaumur) without giving
any previous notice; and from
the quantity of the ground being
clayey, with a moderate ascent

stood on the spot not a vestage is
now to be seen—the ruins are ei

may form some idea of the force
with which this mass of earth
fell, when I tell you, that a con
siderable portion of it was thicwn
several hundred yds. distant Irom
the river on the opposite bank,
where it destroyed two houses
with some cf the unfortunate in
habitants. The owner of Filler
Farm perished by returning to
the house to look alter one of his

teen are known to have been hu
ried or drowned, and 40 horses
besides cows, &c Avery fine la-,

saved himself in a remarkable
manner; he was the foremost of
1 4 or IS peasants, who were re
turning home to Selbec, from
bringing the timber for buildings
to onr work, and was so
near the spot, that he heard the
owner ot filler cry for help— he
immediately resolved to retrace
his step?.; the other poor wretches
endeavored to reach the shore
through a deep snow, and per
ished with their horses ; most of
them had two.
The man who saved himself
had a very good horse, and by
keeping himself full speed he es
caped on shore by blare Foss,

Great and Little Foss, a short dis
tance from the l iver, was carrieu
in an upwright position, as it
stood on the shore, with two
boats chained to it, and in that
