A Nice Country to Live In. ; ♦ A statistical memorandum lately issued by the Italian Government supplies some facts as to the great destruction caused annually by avalanches in the Alpine districts of Italy and the Tyrol. In the single district of the Valdi Susa, two avalanches fell on 18th January ; one at Devies, between Exilles and Salbertand, was estimated atabout 60 metres long and 6 deep, and slid down the slope a distance of about a kilometre. Its volume is supposed to have been 360,000 cubic metres, and the weight of snow composing it was 45,000. It destroyed 16 houses, and killed 43 persons. The second avalanche, of 18th January, fell near Venaus, was 150 metres long, its volume was about 3,000,000 cubic metres, and it bore nearly a quarter of a million tons of snow. But although the the slide extended to nearly four kilometres, only 24 houses were wrecked by it and six persons killed A third avalanche, which fell at Mafnotto, and was computed to contain a little more than 1600 tons weight of snow, was much more destructive, killing 17 persons and destroying 18 houses.
