We are informed from a respectable source that the old road to the post of Arkansas-by Spring river, is entirely destroyed by the last violent shocks of earthquakes, chasms of great depth and considerable length cross the country in various directions, some swamps have become dry, others deep lakes, and in some places hills have disappeared.
