Moke Eathquakes.?Two very decided earthquake shocks were felt iu Winnsboro on Friday?one about half^ past five in the morning, and the other At fifty-five minutes past two o'clock in the afternoon. Both were more severe than "any since the first series of shocks felt here in September. Opin ions differ as to the comparative violence of the two shocks. Most persons think that the one in the morning was ~ the more severe, but this may be due f to the fact of the quiet then prevailing.

Besides this there was* .a lot of baling, ties, salt, molasses j | and other groceries consumed. Among the cotton consumed was a number of bales owned by innividnals who had | storQ^j^there. .The loss is estimated at about ?4,000, partly covered by insurance. Fuaxk Leslie's Populak Monthly i for November.?A very timely article ; is that on "the Great Fishing Ground, and its International Questions," in TTVaiiL- r.MliP.8 Pnnnlnr Monthly for I I November. What all the perennial ' quarrel with our neighbors is about will be clear to any one who reads it. A young lady tourist on ''A Visit to i Fort Qu Appelle," carries us to an inland fort and mission in theXorth: west. The never flagging interest in | Charles Edward will stimulate many j to read the very clever article on that prince. "Hatfield House, the Home of the Cecils" describes and pictures one of the finest and grandest old and stately homes of England rich in historic associations. "An Ocean Swordskman," by Holder, is a stirring account nf thp Rwnrdnsh <ind its caoture. As ! good as a jaunt to Jena is "Duelling at ; a German University": and the "Trip | to ihe Pyrenees" takes the reader to j the mountains which cut off the Peninsula from ordinary travelers. It is somewhat of a satire, in the heated term just on us, to read about "Getting Warm"; but, :is winter is fast coming, ni!iv lin cfvismtnhlrv .The stories and illustrations are all good, ami the number is one to lind readers for every article. A Strakge Phenomenon. ? The Charlotte Observer of Sunday ?.ives an account of a very strange phenomenon in the shape of a rain tree. It seems that two scrubby oak trees stand in the corner of a yard on one of the ci i-opIc n.nrl lhaf. ftverv dav betwee . i the hours of one and five o'clock, genI eraily about three, when the sky is perfectly clear ai d the sun shining' brightly, rain begins to tall between the trees, first as a mist and continues until it becomes a pretty good shower. The rain can be seen coming down j from above the tops of the trees. No j one cau account ror or explain the ; mystery. Crowds or people gather to j see it every day, and on one occasion : an umbrella held under the tree by one gentlemen was s -on dripping wet. The Rev. W. R. Atkinson, president of the Female College, on Saturday climbed to the top of the tree to make a personal investigation. He could ! see the lain coming from *atove the ' tree but from whence it came reI mained a mystery. Mr. James Barry, ! in <?haror<? of the signal sta i tiou at thai point, has been so im pressed with what he witnessed that he lias reported the oc.urrence to Washington. The occurrence is witnessed by hundreds every day, who vouch for she genuineness of the phenomenon. It still remains a mystery The Statk Faii:.- The eighteenth | Miniual lair of tho State Agricultural and Mcchanical Society of South Carolina will be held in Columbia, coinmencin<r Tue-day. November 9th, and continuing until Friday the 12th, inclutive. The display of all classes of stork bids fair to be equal to any pluvious exhibit in tins Class, as wen n<? the samples of all field crops, improved agricultural machinery, together with a full exhibition in the women's department, both household, fancy and domestic, will give visitors an opportunity of an examination of all the resources ?four Statu not to be found outside of the State Fair.

Railroad Notes.--The Columbia Ilcy inter mentions that on the 19th j iu>tant a bill of Complaint was filed in | the Superior Court of the Anj.Misr.-i! Judical Circuit to set aside the lea.-e ol j the Charloite, Columbia & Augusta j Rdlroad to the Richmond <fc Danville j Railroad. Tiic bill i> brought by A. II. Milieu and C. A.
