Abstract
There has been a most terrible eruption lately of mount vesuvius, about the latter end of last month, but the accounts hitherto arrived are not very distinct: however, they all agree, that there were nine new mouths, or openings, towards the Torre del Greco and Annonciada: that very considerable shocks of an earthquake were felt all over Naples: that neither fire nor smoke came, out of the old crater; that the lava had run into the sea: and that beyond Portici, upon the high-road, the lava was in height seventeen palms, and some of the sreams four hundred yards broad.
