Transcript
AN account of a VOLCANO having bursted out in the Mountains in Buncombe County, N. C. in to-day's paper. This would, if, true, account at once for the many shocks of Earthquakes lately experienced-But the correctness of the latter is very much doubted-being contradicted by several persons who have passed through that country several days since the date of the letter.
