Show Commxiioi The Reone des Deux Monde gives an account of the discovery of a buned city, older' than JPohapeiU; It is on Therasia, a small island ot the Greek Archipelago, which, with two others, forma a sort ot circular bay : . The inner coast presents a series of cliffs, sometimes reaching to a height of 1,300 feet. On the top of these cliffs lies a band of pumice stone of brilliant whiteness. From the summit the land slopcxaway? gently to the open sea, and is evefy where covered with a coating of tnlla or pozzulolana, at times more than one hundred feet deep. Here atid there upon the slopes are scattered populous village's. There is, however, no soil but a friable pumice, the dust of which is raised 'and carried in eddies by very strong winds. This pumice, when duly mixed with lime, produces a hard cement, which has the quality of great resistance to the action of the weather or sea water. It has for some time beeu exported, and the works at the Suez Canal have caused lately an increased demand for it. In the tulla has been quite cut quarrying,and beneath have been found nigh, remains, of buildings erected by the primitive dwellers in the' islands. The first discoveries were made in Therasia. On the southern face of the islands, between the two capes in which it terminates, are vast open quarries. The, works are at the edge of the cliff, and the material is hurled down some 500 feet to the base, whence it is directed by shutes into boats. The workmen have been accustomed not to cut down to the bottom of the stratum, since below a certain level they found that the pozzulolana was mixed with blocks of stone, which,' besides making it more difficult to work, reduced its value. Those blocks lay in regular lines, and were the crests of walls. There can be no doubt that the buildings were raised to dwell in, aud that the pumice which covered them had 4iot Been stirred since it'first fell from the volcanoes. The principal building uncovered con tains six rooms of various sizes, the artP8t being about 20 by 17 feet, the smallest a little more than eight feet waHfi is carried out One square. sort of court, about inclose a so far as t0 eet lonS w,t.h a si,,ge en twenty-sitrance.
