A sharp shock of an earthquake wns felt at Lyons between twelve and one o ' clock in the afternoon of Wednesday week . Some houses were damaged , but no lives lost . * The fame shock wu * felt at Valence , on tho Ithone , and indeed along the whole of the cast of Irancc . Some chimneys were thrown down , bell * were set , rmgin < - and a degree of oscillation aud trembling was felt ill thS houses . Accounts received ' from Italy , Switzerland ,-and parts of ( Jemiany , agree in stating that the shock extended to all those countries .

According to tlie usual habit of prciUB , he advised the General « to wait , just to see which v ay the wind would blow . But , says tho story , f reclamation wn » actually issued , and several copie ^ wcre pasted up on the walls of the city . The prdfe ; telegraphed to his private friends , ascertained the truth , became outrageously indignant and ltf . v »» i «» d « ctually ventured , for the first time in hts life , to bully the General , who scratched his head and told him to go to- .
