LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Another Sik?< " ? A very distinct earthquake . hock was felt in our town last Monday afternoon about five o'clock. Some people claim that they fell minor shocks every day. but the one last Monday was unmistakable. It caused The Times vxd Democrat building to shake perceptibly, it only lasted two or three seconds. Welch & Easax.?This well-known 'house of Charleston announce in this week's Times and Democrat that they are prepared to iill all orders for groceries and family supplies :ts here tofore, and at the > ? ry lowest prices. This is a reliable house and richly de serve the liberal patronage bestowed upon it by an appreciative public. ? Death of Ephraim (Ymminos. - This faithful colored Democrat died at his home last Wednesday week. He held the office of Count) Commissioner one term, having been elected on the Democratic ticket in 1S78. lie was a .good man. und haul many friends .among the white people. * He was about seventy years old at the time of his death. The Second Primary.?The vote as far as heard from up to the time of going to press indicate the election of Messrs. Fair. Xorth and Dickson as County Commissioners and Marsha! Jones* as the colored representative. Later returns of course may change this, us we have only heard from a very few boxes. We will publish a full statement of the vote next week. An Improvement.?The Kershaw Gazette came to us last week very much enlarged ant! improved. The Gazette has adopted the plan of The Times and Democrat ami now comes out as an eight page i<apci instead of a four page. Bro. Beard is a first-class newspaper man, and the Gazette under his management bids fair to be one of the leadiug couutrv weeklies in the Stiite. Suspended.?We regret to learn that our sprightly cotemporary, the Branch villo Banner. h:is been discontinued by its publisher. Dr. J.P.Ott. We sup pose the suspension was made because the enterprise did not pay. During the and its demise was no fault oi' its edi tor, who labored earnestly and faith fully to give the people of our sister town a readable paper. Death ov V. D. Bowman.?This well known colored man died at his home last Monday afternoon after an illness of several weeks with fever. He was a Democrat, and was one of tue colored candidates at the lirst primary who received the highest vote for County Commissioner, and was voted far again last Tuesday in accordance with the rulss of the party, there being no ehoic? in the !ir>t election. He was a good citizen. The Best.?TheNew York Star may now be classed as the best paper pub lished in New York City, it has been recently enlarged to twice, its former size, and is now a large eight page pa per. We are glad to note the Star's progress, It fills a long-felt want in the metropolis, the want for a good, " itcirest,~ciirrsioi"rrt"i^c*tnrxrrrric~R6W9p<f per. May prosperity continue to at tend the enterprise. To those of our people who want a good, clean paper from the Xorth, wc would recommend the Star. Railroad Accident.?A station or two this side of Camden, Friday after noon, the train running between Cam den and Branch villi.* was badly wrecked by the breaking of an axle of the box car, which was in front. The train was thrown from the track, and the combination ear wrecked. The passen ger coach in Cue rear was badly dam aged. The mail agent was hurt. It took all of Friday night to clear the tract. The train which left Columbia that evening for Camden did not reach there until next morning. An Editor Married.- -The Spar tanbttrg Her:;!?.!, of last week, '*"!i tained the following paragraph: "We hope our readers will excuse-short com ings this wool:, as our foreman is off anil our editor's mind is engrossed with a subject of much more impor tance (a new wife) than a thousand newspapers, and before this is out his fondest hop? will have been realized. Farewell days of lonesome bachelor hood. Such is life."* We are glad to see that Uro. Jones has taken the advice we gave him some time ago, audhas taken unto himself a wife. We ex tend our congratulations to the happy couple.and wish them all the hippincss this life can bestow. The Game Law.?At the last session of the Legislature the law for the pro tection of game birds was amended so that it is illegal to kill partridges, doves.&.c, previous to the ist day <?!' Xovemlier. For the information of all concerned section l.?'.M of the statutes I -elating to game birds is herewith printed : 'it shall not be lawful for any person in. *his state, between the 1st day of April ami'the 1st day of No vember, in any year hereafter, to catch, kill or injure, or to pursue with such intent, or to sell or expose for sale, any wild turkey, partridge, dove, woodcock or pheasant, and any person found guilty therefore shall be lined not less' than ten dollars, or l?e imprisoned not less than ten days, which line, if impos ed, shall go one half thereof to the in former and thy (ther half to the schon]; fund of ? ?? County wherein the offense : was commit!) !." " An [mportamt Fact.?The E?ge ileld Monitor says : When the chronic grumbler tells you that "taxes are as high as they were antler Radical rule." just remind him that iu addition to the taxes paid then a State def t was being saddled upon us at the rate of hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly. This very important fact is overlooked by the afori said chronic grumbler. Another point : This immense sum of debt money was brought into the State spent freely, making what some people now look back to and remember as ?lush times, without once considering tin- cost Lothe State. Suppose those flush times, from the same cause, had continued up to this day, what would be the financial condition of South Carolina? The present tax would not be sufficient to pav one-half the interest or the. State debt. All these things should he considered in comparing the present with the. past, the Democratic with Republican administrations. OU?. BREVITY EASXET. Filled With llrlofMrntliui of Many Minor Events ?f the Week. Let our merchants buy all they can in Charleston. I The imp last Thursday night was a j complete success. Cotton is selling in our market at ! $% cents for the best. Let Orangeburg merchants remeni ? bor Atlanta's meanness to Charleston 1 Mr. T. M. McMichael has handed us I one dollar for the Charleston sufferers. The prisoners in jail made an unsuc cessful effort one night last week to escape. A. P. G ue, Esq.,of the Fork, handed us I fifty cents lor the Charleston sufferers j last Saturday. The iMisto Hi ties, of this place, has i contributed the sum of ?25 to the I Charleston sufferers, i We have the prol'oundest respect for I earthquakes, but we hope they will soon permanently retire. Unless Atlanta repudiates the utter ances of the Constitution she should not get any South Carolina trade. Mr. .1. II. Cook, of Walnut Grove, has contributed through this office one dollar to the Charleston sufferers. Nothing is easier than fault-finding. No talent, no self-denial, no character, tire required toset up in the grumbling business. Scientists tell us that these continued er>rthqu;>ke shocks are healthy signs. They make us feel uncomfortable all the same. Saturday. October 9th, being Vom Kipper, the establishments of Air. Theodore Kohn and Mr. Henry Kohn will be closed. The marriage of the editor of the Spartauburg Herald is another awful warning to Brother Holmes, of the 1 Jam well People. Keep little annoyances out of the way. Life is too short and time too precious to notice the petty little (lings of your enemies. A Bridgeport (Conn.) man got home j late one night recently and swallowed three shoe buttons for pills by mistake. He i:: very near death. The different churches of Orange burg County should take steps to help then' brethren in Charleston rebuild the:i houses of worship. A cow on the track half a mile from j Chattanooga overturned an engine re I cently, and the engineer and fireman were crushed to death. Mr. Joe L. Shuler, of Providence. I vvho, his neighbors say, has been letting j deer run over him for many years, has j at last succeeded in killing one. A meeting of the stockholders of the ; Orangeburg and Lewiedale Railroad, will be held at the Courthouse in Orangeburg, at 12 o'clock M. to-day. Business of importance will receive, at tention. Oraiiffeburg has been favored with the presence of several handsome Charleston young ladies since the earthquake, and we hear that some of our young men have fallen victims to their charms. A level-headed writer says that whe n you li?ar_.:i man talking against his c^ufey newspaper you may just put it down that he owes for two years sub scription, and is mad becausefhe editor wants the money. Roshushana, the feast of the Jews, corresponding to our New Year, will be observed to-day. Services are usual ly held in the Synagogue during the day. The Day of Atonement falls on the ninth day thereafter. Carrying a lady's shawl on the arm is said to ben sure sign of matrimonial intentions. Win. H. Vanderbilt used to say : "When a man gets that far he's gone! I've noticed it a hundred times. It never fails?never!" The teachers' examination will com mence to-morrow at the Clallin Uni versity building at o'clock A. M. Prof. DeTrevillc will take charge for the Board. Applicants will take due notice of the time and place. j it is reported that the steamer Grucie ! Barker foundered off Grand I la veil, I Mich., in the gale of the 12tli, and tb.it 100 souls perished. The storm was so severe that wrecks of all kinds ot vessels were washed ashore. Earthquake whisky is the latest craze anion'jr Charleston imbibers. It is warranted to put a man beyond no ticing so insignificant a thing as an earthquake within fifteen minutes after it goes down his throat. We have the pleasure of acknowledg ing the receipt of a paniplqet contain ing the address of the Rev. Ellison Capers at the commencement of the South Carolina Military Academy, l'or which the Board of Visitors will please accept our thanks. The Societv of -Willing Workers" of St. Paul's Sunday School will give uu lee Cream festival, ami will also havean apron table, at Young America Hall Friday afternoon and evening, October 8th.

The proceeds of the entertainment went to the Charleston sufferers. There has been contributed al together through this office two bun-j dred and eighty-two dollars, to the; Charleston and Suiuinerville sufferers, one huudrcd and eighty-one dollars, of which has been forwarded.

Trotter,of IIuntsville, Ala., who has been confined to her bed for many years with illness, procured a razor and nearly severed her head from her body. The daughter of the lady was sleeping in the same bed and knew nothing of the terrible death of j her mother until several hours later. The simiter Advance says, Col. J. I). Giuliani. Clerk of Court, is keeping a list of those who said they were not scared during the earthquake, becausel men who can make statements so much at variance with existing actualities, I are disqualified and should forever be disbarred from holding office or testi fying in Court. llowesvllle Dots. rowesville, S. 0., Sept. 2S, lsSG. ! Editor Tim's and Democrat: Since the excitement occasioned by the earthquake has subsided and the people have resumed their general routine of business, the carpenter's hammer and humming saw may be distinctly heard in the surrounding vicinity," not in repairing damages but in constructing residences on the ! modern order of neatness and con | venience combined. Rowesvillc is not only improving in this one particular j but she is establishing a widespre.-a > reputation for fair dealings, cheap sup plies and highest market prices paid for all country produce, her cotton market being iiinong her particulari j ties. Tin- community far and wide have been taking an active part in a meet ing conducted by the Rev. Mr. Mc Millan at Old Canaan Church between the two Edistos. There were forty live members received into this church on last Sunday. So much for the passion ate arder manifested on this occasion bv Mr. McMillan. The primary at this place passed off quietly and perfectly satisfactory, though there were some who thought themselves mote popular before than after, they didn't mtimer, but they might have thought it curious that their cousin should receive more votes than their uncles. Several rascally negro boys brick batted Capt. Ilasell's train just below this place the other night. "Tis a pitty that they could not be caught and taught the "modus operandi" at a whipping post. The earthquake shock on Tuesday morning the 21st instant, was distinct, but not intense enough tobe allarming at this place. Mrs. Dr. W. P. Barton is reported as being quite ill?the complaint being paralysis. 0. K. C. The Southern Bivouac?The Oc tober number of the Southern Bivouac is out with its usual variety of inter esting and entertaining articles. Dr. Felix L. Oswald closes the summer season with a delightful paper on some out-of-the-way watering-places. Will Wallace JIarney concludes his paper on Orange Culture. A Northern soldier draws a striking comparison between the' campaigns of General Bee and General Grant. Colonel Robert W. Wooiley has an important paper relat ing to Gen. Albert Sydnoy Johnston's purposes in lighting the battle of Shiloh, and Colonel \Y. Allen reviews General Longstreet's account of Lee's Invasion of Maryland. Asa war issue the October Bivouac is probable the best issue of the magazine. But, aside from these war papers, the magazine has much to interest the general rea der. Bono Barcalde is a character sketch of unusual merit; Colonel Nicholas Smith has a bright paper, en titled, My First Conquest; Maurice Thompson writes of the Kingfisher in his most charming style; G. C. Conner has a very timely paper on Mex: ;o. and Mariner J. Kent gives a true f story of what is called Foe's Last P i?m. Col. A. S. Colyar, of Nashville ?' .scribes the recent changes in the Municipal Gov ernment of Nashville, and Walker Kennedy tells what has been done in the way of reform in Memphis. The poets are well represented, inspired by the glories of the autumn, and ttttftra der, whatever he may seek, will be apt to find it in the October Bivouac. The Eclectic?The October Eclec tic has been laid before us, and offers great attraction to its readers. Sir John Lubbock has the place of honor in a disquisition on the "Study of Science," and this is well supported in the next paper, on "Pasteur and Hy drophobia," by Prof. Ray Lankester. One of the greatest.men ever produced in America, Alexander Hamilton, is discussed by A. G. Bradley, and the well-known critic, George Saintsbury, has something to say about one of the Scottish intellectual giants, Christopher North, the founder of Blaekwood's Magazine. Goldwin Smith's paper on the "Capital of the United States" will be read with interest. Other leading papers are Alex. II. Japp's "Some Un conscious Confessions of DeQuinceyy' and a very readable paper by Sophie Weisse on'the great German historian Kanke, with reminiscences of Berlin, from 1S84 to 18SG. Vernon Lee, under the head of "Pcrigot," contributes in teresting notes on the dramatic in lit erature and art, and theauthor of "John Halifax, Gentleman," has something to say on the always suggestive sub ject of money. The poems and shorter papers are of marked interest. F. T. Palgravo's ballad of 'Tansanias and Cleonice" being specially noticeable. Published by E. 11. Pelton, 25 Bond Street, New York.

Why not be a clamV What is the matter with the clam? What harm did ever a clam do anybody ? Has a clam offen sive habits? Docs it go around with a chip on its shoulder, asking somebody to knock it off? Does iL stay out late at night and coin'- in with red eyes to the oltice next morning V Why not be a clam? Dearly beloved brethren, let us remember that in the clam we find a source of rare enjoyment. Although it gives its name to that delectable dish. Do we not go to the beaches for clam bake-;, and do not the clam bakers send to the city for the clams to bake? Dues not the clain come to us as a boon when the month are destitute of rs and till up the interregnum in the reign of the oyster? Dues not the clam come to comfort and solace us when the oyster is sleeping in his little bed? Why not be a clam ? Who said so? Heavy Robreuy at Newbeiwy.? News was received in Columbia Satur day of the robbery on Tuesday night last of the jewelry" store of J. W. Mont gomery, at Newberry. On the opening of the store Saturday morning the sale door was found open, and it was then that the robbery was discovered. The door bore no evidence of having been forcibly opened, and iL is suspected that it was opened by some one who knew the combination. The cellar door to the building was also found open. Tiic thieves got away with between 82,000 and S2.o00 worth of watches, diamonds, valuable rings, silverware, &c. Noth ing '.ait valuable articles Were selected by the burglars.

IVhut Was Done h? the General .Sessions The following embraces all the busi ness done in Court of General Sessions since nur last issue : The jury rendered a verdict of guilty against Paul Smith for attempting a criminal assault. The prisoner was sentenced to one year in the Penitenti ary. j The only ease tried Wednesday was I against David Syl'ret, a young white I man, charged with libel. The libellous I instrument complained of was a letter i written by the defendant, and address | ed and delivered to a cousin of the de fendant, a young man named M. C. De> witt, in which Dewitt was accused of stealing crossties. Gen. Izlar, who de fended the accused, contended that he could not be convicted of libel where the libellous instrument was shown to have been delivered sealed to the prose cutor, and that there had been no pub lication of it except by the prosecutor himself, who, it was proved, had shown it to his wife. He further contended that, in order to convict under this proof, the indictment should have charged that the letter had been written with the intention of provoking a breach of the peace instead of charging injury to general reputation. Judge Kershaw ruled that as the proof show ed that the prosecutor could not read or write, and had showed the letter to his wife solely for the purpose of ac quiring a knowledge of the contents of the letter, such action on his part was not such a personal publication as would deprive him from receiving the redress accorded by the law. lie held that under the circumstances the in dictment was good, and the alleged libellous writing could go before the jury. The jury found the accused guilty and a sentence of three months :n the county jail or fifty dollars' line was imposed. Gen. Izlar excepted to the Judge's ruling and gave notice of appeal. In. the Court of Ceneral Sessions Thursday Cherry Butler, colored, was tried for burglary and larceny, viz : breaking into the barn" of Mr.* A. K. Tabor, near Fort Motte, and stealing one thousand pounds of cotton. Mr. M. I. Drowning represented the accused. Verdict, guilty. Sentence, two years in the Penitentiary. The next case was against Caleb Jenkins, colored, charged with the.mur der of Jack Gordon, colored,on the loth of the present month. The testimony for the State was given by witnesses very obviously partial to the prisoner, and at the close of the State's ease there was really hardly enough to base a verdict ol guilty upon, but the prisoner went on the stand and testifi ed in his own behalf, and as is frequent ly the case made matters very much worse for himself. The history of the transaction was that the deceased went to his bouse about dark very drunk;that he beat his wife and ran hermit of bis house; that his wife ran to her sister's house for protection; that the prisoner, Jenkins, who was Cordon's brother-in law, attempted to get him out of the house where he had pursued his wife; that Gordon cut him with a knife in the foot and struck him with a hickory stick, that .Jenkins then got an axe, ami the next thing the witnesses knew Gor i don was lying on the ground with his skull cloven by the axe. No one saw the blow indicted, and the prisoner was very much confused in making his statement, lie came into Court im pressed with the one idea, that what he. wanted to prove was that the kill ing was in self-defence. lie had evi dently studied this point very carefully, but unfortunately he did not seem to know exactly the true meaning of self defence. When asked how and why he struck, the fatal blow, the accused said : "When de man lick at me wid de stick, I jes pick up de axe to shun oll de blow and de axe fall on de man head. All was done in self-defence. I didn't mean to hit the man at all. I jes went to fen off de blow and de axe fall in self-defence." The jury found a verdict of not guilty. The ease against Bill Cordon and Titus Ferguson, colored, for murder, was continued, a large number of the State's witnesses being absent. These prisoners were convicted at the last term of murder and were granted a new trial. The case against Marshall Ainaker, charged with murder, was also continu ed, on motion of the defence, in eonse quencoof absent witnesses. The grand jury made their present ment and were discharged for the term. The presentment gives full in formation as to the condition of the county ullices, which are reported to be generally in good condition. The grand jury reeemmended to the Gener al Assembly to pass an Act requiring a license for trailie in seed cotton, and suggest that such license be fixed at ?1,000. Thegrand jury also recommend that the County Commissioners of this County employ*a lawyer for their clerk and that all legal advice they require outside of their clerk's legal ability they shall pay for out of their private purses. In the Court of Ceneral Sessions Friday the only ease remaining for j trial was against James T.King, the I young schoolmaster who is charged with the murder of T. X. Williams in Edisto Fork in this County. When the case was called the Solicitor moved for a continuance, on the ground of absent witnesses and newly discovered evi dence. Mr. Browning, representing i the defendant, resisted the continuum c and demanded a trial. The Court! I granted the continuance. This dosed I the work of the Sessions, and the Court was adjourned siw ilie. List of U tters. List of unclaimed letters anil postal cards remaining in Past OHice at Or j angeburg, S.

Since our Last Issue. The Itlght Kind of Talk. . Editor Times und Democrat: It was indeed with pleasure I road the address of the committee appointed at the reunion of the Survivors of the Second South Carolina Artillery on raising funds for the erection of a monument to our gallant dead in your last week's issue. Xow -while" the Second Artillery Survivors started this important work, I hope the Committee will select others on this Committee from other commands in different parts of the County, as this monument is to he to the memory of all the gallant dead of our County, we want ihe Sur vivors to feel that each and every one has an interest in this noble work, no matter in what command he served his country. Truly do the Committee say, this work has*been neglected too long already. How often have I felt sad when reading accounts of the unveil ing of monuments in other counties to. the- memory of their dead heroes to think Orangeburg County had done nothing to keep "the memory of her brave sons green. For, Mr. Editor, wc had many of the best of Orangoburg's sons who died lighting for our homes. Shall we who have been spared to peep through this bloody conllict not plead the cause of our fallen ones. I had been an humble private in the lost cause for four years. You can direct the Committee to call upon me any time for ten dollars as my mite in this noble work. You. Mr. Editor, in your generous nature, who is always a liber al giver, do help us all you can through your valuable and popular paper. A Survivor. The Campaign.

A law rock overhanging the moun tain side in Jackson County, VY. Ya., yesterday became detached and rolled down. Ihe dwelling and barn of Leslie Cummins were demolished. Cuinmins's son Frank and a hired man named Edward Jenks were killed out right, and two other children of Cum mins were so badly hurt that they will die. Several horses were also killed. In the first year of the war, at Colum bus, Miss., a cannon burst, prostrating (lens. Folk and Cheatham. They re covered consciousness about the same time, and, while still half-dazed, and sitting on the groun*d, Cheatham said to the warrior-bishop : "General, is not this hell V" The pious Folk, with smiling unction, replied : "It smells like it, General." A special from Cincinnati says: Matthew IIothofTer, keeper at the Zoo, was killed by a grizzly bear yesterday. He was sweeping in front of the den when the bear reached out through tiie bars, caught him by the shoulders and held on till the flesh was torn to shreds. The man was removed to the city hospital and died of his injuries. A band of '.iS'2 Wurm Spring: and Chircuhlta Indians, bucks, squaws ami papooses, from the San Carlos reserva tion, arrived Sunday night in Jackson ville, Fla., guarded by two companies of United States troops.
