| 422 Postscript
On Tuesday the 11th inst. as the steam boat Sarah Ann, was ascending the river a little below this city, the body of an individual was seen floating on the water. Immediately a small boat was manned and came up to the corpse, which was taken to the opposite shore. On examination, it proved to be the body of an individual, who, it is supposed, had drowned himself at Fort Madison, about eight or ten days ago. The name we did not ascertain, but understood he was a baker by trade.
The conduct of the officers on board the "Sarah Ann" was praise worthy and humanu, [humane], and such as must entitle them to respect.
Earthquake.
The Courier de Lyon of the 13th ult. publishes a letter from Italy of the 4th, stating that the city of Reggio, in Calabria, was nearly destroyed by an earthquake, Feb. 22d. The shocks were fifteen in number; most of the houses were thrown down, and the rest were so much damaged as to be altogether uninhabitable; the palace of the governer, [governor] the tribunal, the prison, the barracks of St. Augustine, the cathedral, five other churches, and various other public buildings, were entirely destroyed. The inhabitants had sought refuge partly at Messina and partly at Naples.
