di,eoes Destroyed or Injured--The Storm
on Sullivan's Island.
The daily papers of Wednesday,
August 26, contained gccountsofa fear
ful storm that visited Charloston during
the day previous. The signs were un
favorable on the Monday previous, and
the wind continued to increase in
Velocity and violence, till it developed
into a veritable cyclolle. At two
o'clock on Tuesday afternoon this
cyclone strltcki)hatrlettont. The wind
blew a stiff northeastor, tand the work
of damage commenced. Root: were
twisted away, fencing was levelled
and trecs were strip pec and torn. The
gale must have reached sixty miles an
hour, and at. ten o'clock it seemed to
lull for half an hour. Tllen with the
return tide a violent southwester turned
in and completed the wreck in the
path of the storm. Hoofs of slate and
tin that had been unsettled before
were blown bodily into the streets.
Scarcely a tree stands symmetric in the
city. One-fourth of the houses were
unroofed. Parts of the spires of the St.
Michael's and St. Mathew's churches
were blown (lownt, and the spire of the
Citadel Square laptist church vas
demolished. The wharves and ware
houses were badly damaged. On
Sullivan's Island two steamers were
run aground, and the new Ashley
river bridge, in course of construction,
was swept away. Four vessels were
wrecked. The loss is estimated at one
million dollars. The work of restora
tion and repair has already begun.
The work of repair of the principal
vharves for the season's Lusiness had
'ust been filished. In many places
,hcso were torn up. A loaded schooner
was blown from the river across the
track ot"-the Northeasteral Railroad.
The tracks, wharves, depots and ware
houses of the South Carolina Bailroad
were also badly dlanmaged. The stone
flagging of tl beautiful and hmouts
Battery was lemollishled and blown
into the water.
There is not a whole tree in Charles
ion. The walls of tle hatterv are
demolished all around, and the piace is
a complete wreck. There was con
siderable damage to shippim;g, and the
wharves ar all torn up and unroofed
or turned over. The railroad tracks
are torn up and- bent like knitiing
needles and the deJ iots are 1unroofed
and badly damaged. A large vessel
lying at anchor was blown up on the
marsh and lies stranded there. A
schooncr in a little creek running out
from the harbor was blown square
ucross the Northeastern railroad t rack.
Fortunately, there was no loss of
.life. A most Serious alcciclent befel
Mr. Dottorer, living on the corner
opposite the Citadel Square Baptist
Church. Tbc spire of the church was
blown down across his house while
the flimily were all at breakftst. The
spire of the German Lutheran Church,
perhaps the tallest in Cliarloston, leans
worse than the tower of l'Isa, amd if it
does not fall will probably have to be
torn down. A large whiolesale store,
corner King and Reed streets, had the
gable end blown in, and a large numln
her of other buildings were mtore or
less injured.

troubled passage, but was notinjured.
The railroads leading to Charleston
are considerably damtaged. On the
Savannah Railroad several hundred 1
feet of track was washed away, but the i
road was in working condition last
ui ht. The freight depots of the
Savannah and Nor.theastern Railroads
are badly damaged, but the freight in
depots is uninjured. The Iortheastern
Railroad track for a mile and a half is
covered with. water and one-half of the
track is washed oil. Running arrange

Carolina Railroad.
News concerning the crops is mena
gre. The rice factors believe the rice
Crop not danaged much, as tide
water would scarcely reach the
fields before a change in the direction
of the wind would take it down the

but that the cotton crop on the sea
islands is seriously dantaged.
The coastwise steamer St. liclena is

will have to be cut to get her of.
On Sullivan's Island many houses
were daulaged to a greater or less
extent. The New Brighton llotel had
its windows blown in and crockery
broken, but withstood the storm brave

from its foundations and dashed to the
ground.
The News und Courier makes the
following rough estimate of the losses:

property, $300,000 ; churches, $30,000;
cotton presses, $80,000; city property,

I Card rom Geuneral Yohtsoti Halood, 2
Obairman of Lhe B ard of Vialtora.
BARNWELL, August 21, 1885.
lo the Editor of the Columbia teUister: ca
At its late session in Charleston tho c
3oard of Visitors of the State Military or
icademy, with a full attencda.nce of Its Si
nenbere, had to deal with complicated Se
und delicate matters afl'eting the wel- p
aro of the Academy as well as in- si
olving the rights and feelings of indi- fo
iduals.6
They, acted upon the issues present- ti
ad, giving to the public at the time in ya
s brief terms as possible the results at b
vhich they had arrived; proposing .:
tlso to themselves in due course to lay ti
biefoire the Legislaturec, in their annual a
report, a full statement of the facts and w
reasons upon which their action was e
based. This is the usual course in li
obedience to the mandate of the Act of t
Assembly establishing the military o
school, that the Boar< shall "in each e
and every year make a minute and full i
report of tlie condition and manage- (
ment of said school to the Governor,
to be by him laid before the Legisla- 1
ture."
Another consideration inducing tlie
reticence of the loard at the time of its
action was a sincere desire to avoid
won tiding the feelings of individuals
by giving unnecessary notoricty to
what had been donc in the conscien
tiotis disc<harge of painful duty.
Finally-Newspaper discussion con
temporary with the exercise ofdiscip
i no must, however temperately con
dcneted, injuriously affect a military
institution. A standing order of the
Academy forbids it to officers - and
cadets while Ihey sustain that relation
and should the board voluntarily em
bark on such a course and the discus
sion by possibility involve these per
sons, there would be presented the
ungenerous spectacle of its criticising
in the public prints those who by it
were forbidden to reply through that
channcl.
These considerations,in which I fully
concurred, were conclusive to the
Board, and determined the position it
took.
Since the adjournment of the Board,
conml unications have gone to the press
from individuals affected, or from their
friends, which, with the meagre state
ment of icially made by the Board,
have been made the basis of widespread
discussion.
This discussion appears to me to be
basel in part u1)Oil a lisapprehentsion
of ftcts, and I know it to be withou .
i J
seconid t hiought fo minake reparation. IL
is niot thle first tim asI usons1 of' the 1
State that they have been called upon011]
to do their duty dufty to heri ir'respec- I
five of' CcseuCences to themselves.

The opening speech of the Ohio

li Thursday afternoon by Senator John

mlblage. Tihe speech was' carefully
cpared in advance, and makes about
x ordinary newspaper columns. A
w passages tpott the changed condi
)n of afilirs in the national a(minis
ation are as follows: "Some of the
,ry men who boastfully threatened to
rcak up the Union, and, with the
%th of office in support of the Consti
ition fresh on their lips, conspired
i confederated to overthrow it,
aged war against it and were the
%Ise of theloss of a half a million

overnnent. I saw the Union flag a
alf mast floating over the lnterioi

Lion is a reproach to the civilization <
the age. In tho South it may be sal
that no known Union man has bec

DAVID DAVtf.
111e AIbsponsibility for iEllitary Rule In the
Southera States.
A correspondent of the New York
Herall.aibows that Judgo David Davis
Is resbonsible for the military rule that
t46e0utb had to endure in the Recon
struction period. When the case of
McArdle, of Mississilipi, caine before
t,ie United States Supreme Court of
that district for a writ of habcs cor
pus to discharge hiu on the ground
that the Reconstruction lawxt under
which he was hold -were contrary to
the Constitutioni of the United Stui,es
four Judges of the Supreme Coiurt held
that the laws were donstitiutional and
five held that they were unconstitu
tional. Judge I)avis was fir the un
constitutionality of the laws. When
the morning caine for the announce
ment of the decision it was proposed to
defer it for a weei. Jutdec Davis's
vote carried the atljournmnelit. In the
meantine a bill was introdluel into
Congress repealing the authorit v of'the
Supreme Court to hear appeals in
habeas corvus cases. It was rushed
through both houses and passed. It
was vetoed by Presidlent Johnson and
passed over his veto before the day
appointed for the anitnouncelnetit of the
decision. On that day the Supreme
Court was compelled 'to dismiss the
- apkpeal in MeArdle's case, Justiees
G Grier and Field dissenting and protest
p ing against the outrage on justice and
e law. The Southern States by this
means became the victims of all the
terrible phases of Reconstruction, with
Y all its carpet-bag hiorrors.
