On my journey from Granada to
Malaga, writes a correspondent of The
London Standard, I witnessed at all
the stations scenes precisely similar
to those which I described upon the
way from Cordova to Granada.
Crowds of people were assembled up
on the platforms or encamped round
the stations, waiting until the railway
company can take them away. Every
car, truck, and carriageon the sidings
or in the sheds is occupied, and nsm
i bers are bivouacking in the carts and
I carri>ges in which they drove from
their homes to the stations. The rail
way authorities tell me that the great
er part of the wealthier classes have
already left the country. The emi
gration .-.as not very large after the
first shock, but the'frequent tremors
which have followed it have frighten
ed all who have means enabling them
to Cave their homes for a while into
haMenisg away to some other part of
the co an try. The absolute damage
done by the earthquake south of Gra
nada was, so far as I could sev from
the railway carnage, much less seri
i ous thin that suffered by the villages
and towni between that city and Cor
i dova.
