W. gale last night, and considerable damage was done to the small coast craft in the harbor. A number of fences were blown down, but there is no record of any loss of life. Wanganui, July 5. An unusually sharp earthquake occurred early yesterday morning. It was preceded and followed by lesser ones for several hours, and occasional noises like distant artillery firing were heard.
