The people of Aiken talk anxiously to the action cf the new administration. It may be well for them to understand, at the outset, ihat the citizens of this town expect the new Cobiicil to use every power hi known to the law to enforce the Ordi nance against the sale of liquor on tiie Sabbath. This violation of the Ordi nances of the town lias grown to such a degree that it is carried on in the most barefaced manner, desecrating tbe Holy Day* of Rest, and sending r young men staggering about our ts. has Leon remarked re- that more drunkenness can be ed on the streets of Aiken on e other six The Mutual Belief to the Front. Tiie Graniteville Mutual Relief Association has done nobly* in con tributing so large an amount (*113.) to the Charleston Relief Fund.

They have not only done what is creditable to their society, but what is honorable to the good name of Aiken County.

UyrViid CUBED BY THE EARTHQUAKE. A Young Lady’s Speech FrigUeutcd Back to Her. Savannah, Ga.. September 7.—A strange incident of last week’s earth quake shock is the recovery of the power of speech by Miss Mamie Mar ius, daughter of a retired ofticer of the regular army. At the close of the war her father was put in charge of Forts Pulaski and Jackson, below this city. While at the former fort the daughter, then a bright, intelligent child, had an attack of meningitis, which left er voiceless. The best medical skill was obtained, and the father took his afiiieted child travelling, hut nothing did her any* good. She was dumb, m"f S :,.M Dur . i V> r ^-V that the committees, which the excitement of the hi H eaithqua.»ej were suddenly called into existence in "'i'A m J ier ! l1 ^ a great emergency, fi.ght attempted to call lu i hi other. | proved themselves, with limited He was Lightened himsell when he , me . ins an( j comparatively small op- ,ea d i ri whisper b,s name, biuee j portuilitieSi r . {ll \. ef]Ual “ to the d l e _ t.u n she nus gradually regained hei niands that were made upon them, voice, and now talks with perfect | l lu , ve said enough to show the high v 18 alr h°H j endurance of our people in these trials. I wish to oiler you some advice for the future which I believe to he for your best interest. At the end of six ty days we must surely expect cold Almshouse wcrt^pffivfully looked af- teiVaivV re m ORfmf ro i n their wrecked offf:irtev^Tr 1 a safe tempory home, ^^evidence of the faith and coui- of all our people, I refer to a few l jipidents only,' not to all, in these try ing scenes. I inentiou the devotion to duty of Jie firemen, who, amidst crumbling buildings and walls aud entangling wires, moved tlieir apparatus to the several seej^ of conflagration, and carried * u en' hose by hand over grouiid^rewn with ruins and trem- “liijyGhder earthquake shocks; and His desperate struggle, saved the <y from funher disastrous destruc tion by fire. Amidst scenes like these the police force, driven from (he wrecked Main Slationhouse, with many of their families in peril and trouble, still stood to their post of duty; and their chief reports no single case of unau thorized absence. The telegraph operators stood by tlieir instruments amid the ruins of their office. The municipal medical corps and all the private physicians of the city were immediate and constant in their attendance on the wounded and sick on their perilous rounds iu the terror of that night. The many nurses, both regular and volunteer, administered to the general sufiering and distress around them, while all the clergy, in the comfort and consolation of tlieir faith, sustained aud strengthened the many awe-stricken gatherings in the open places of tiie city*. The countless acts of bravery and devotion of the men and women who, iu the darkness, returned to and res cued from the still quaking and crumbling ruins, tiie children, the sick, tiie aged and the helpless will uever be told. Iu tiie midst of this sudden and al- inosi^over whelm ing disaster, I rejoice to find that the City Government was equal to every emergency, and not ouly continued uninterrupted and un impaired in its official functions, but also came actively to the relief of the sufiering and distress of tiie commu nity. Acting Mayor Huger, on whom tliis grave responsibility was sudden ly cast, was ceaseless, and untiring in the discharge of his official duties. What has been done under his action will be found in the full report of the committees, which I have requested shall be published in full herewith, that our people may know tiie labor of the citizens who have undertaken and so faithfully discharged this large and beneficent public service. The special executive committee, appointed by Acting Mayor Huger, is hereby re-appointed, together with the sub-committees on shelter and subsistence, of which Major C. F. Hard and Dr. A. B. Rose respectively are chairmen. It may be necessary, in view of the magnitude of the work, to re-organize and re-arrange the re lief organization, hut it will not be for gotten itj* tlie public or by the Mayor of ex pressed i-'.lihuin ' ! o'!i* ilio !i knock Lff n ini-lei'*, hint.

TIIE MASONIC FRATERNITY. An Address to t he Craft—Hefp Needed by the Order in Charleston So many inquiries have been receiv ed by tiie Masons of Charleston in re gard to tiie necessity for help to the sufferers by the earthquake, that it has been determined to make public the following general response: Office of j M. W. G. M. of Masons of S. C. t i Grand East, Charleston, »S. C., j September 8th, 3836. J To the Craft, wheresoever dispersed: In response to numerous inquires ad dressed to the Grand Masteraml other Gr:*!iu Officers, as to the need of Ma sonic- assistance to the brethren of Charleston who have suffered by the recent earthquake in this city, the Grand Master takes this method of replying that Die ruin and devestaiion is widespread aud almost universal. In consequence of the destruction of dwellings and other buildings, probab ly more than iiaif the population is homeless and camping out in the open air. Help is, therefore, most urgent ly needed by the Masons of Charleston in common with the rest of the com munity, not only on account of the present distress’ but because Lie long continued and unwonted exposure to the weather must result in serious sick ness aud suffering. Any contributions will begreatfully accepted. Remittances should be made to R. W. Bro. Zimmerman Davis, grand treasurer, Charleston, S. C., who will receipt for tiie same. Very fraternally, J.
