EARTHQUAKE lUMBLINGS.
ConiMence Returning-Charity from a!! Parts
of the World.
Business. has been reopened .diong the
wharves of Charleston. Cotton factors
and ship-brokers are ready for business
and full of confidence in the future, and
declare their purpose to make Charles
ton a bigger place than ever. In t
market and on the streets the old
familiar sounds of "sibby bean," "okr'n
tomottis," "raw shrimp," etc., are heard
again.
The U. S. Engineers in Charleston
have begun their survey. T he postoffice
is seriously daniaged. The Custom
House portico is injured. The -iuh
house on Meeting Street will be pulled
down. The rear of the Westeru Cnion
Telegraph building is dangerous. The
Cotton Factory will have its walls pulled
in by rods, and its chimney puiled down
and rebuilt. The general impression of
the board is that a large proportion of
the vacant houses are safe, and they
reconmnend to their owners to return to
them.
Prof. McGee, before leaving Charles
ton, wrote a letter saying that the dan
ger is most probably over. He adds
that in case of shoek, however severe,
those in doors should remain there till
the disturbance is over. He rejects the
idea of tidal waves or volcanic eruptions.
The continuing shocks be dceis evi
dences of safety, as they tend to restore
equilibrium.
A Trust Company is organizing in
New York and other cities for the pur
pose of loaningmoney to rebuild Charles
ton at three per cent.
The people of Baltimore have sub

of the United States up to Wednesday

roads has been abused. Hereafter
greater care will be exercised in offering
free transportation.
The city schools of Charleston are un
dergoing repairs, and such as are ready
will open on the 10th October.
The clergymen of Charleston are dis
cussing the question whether the earth
quake was a 'visitation of God's wrath
for sin" or not.
The Rev. A Toomer Porter has writ
ten a letter calling on the people to re
turn to their houses and avoid exposure
from sleeping in the open air. he calls
on the strong to go to work and the
feeble to leave the city for a fortnight.
He advocates also the substitution of
te.. . ,ofta pipes for heavy chimney tops.
The Rev. Dr. Girardeau is preaching
to large congregations in Mt. Pleasant.
The shock at Marion was very severe
bat caused not much damage.
Knightsville, a village three miles vst
of Summerville, was seriously injured,
and the inhabitants are asking for aid.
Walterboro was severely shaken, and
but few houses have escaped without in
jury. Several waterspouts were seen
about thirteen miles from the town, and
on one place a well with about ten feet
of water became dry and full of white
- sand.
On the Edisto River a gap wais made a
hundred and fifty leet long and half an
inch wide.
Diminishing shocks of earthuiuake
have been felt at various times all over
the State.
Mr. B. 0. Duncan, of Newberry.
writes to the News and Courier that he
was in Smyrna in lm~i, when the island
of Scio was destroyed, with a loss of
fifteen thousand persons killed -and
wounded; and also at Naoles in 1%3
when two thousand persons perished
from - the earthquake on the isle of
Ichia. In.each case, after shocks con
tinued for some time, each diminishing
in~infensay. In neither place has there
beein any recurrence of calammite-. Mr.
Duncan Thinks the danger is over. He
has certainly had considerable experi
ence.
City Assessor Kelly estimates the dam
age in Charleston at $6,000,000.
Prof. McGee denies that there is any
connection between the earthquakes in
Greece and in the United States.
The Southern Telegraph Company did
noble work during the recent excite
ment. Manager Harris sent out the first
news of the Charleston disaster.
The Lord Mayor of London has
opened a relief fund for Charleston.
South Battery, the Mall, Marion
Square and other open places in Charles
ton present a picturesque appearance
with encampments. Rations arc issued
to 6,000 people a day.
Dumb animals appear to have been as
much frightened as their masters.
The Charleston Sailors' Home is in
ruins. The Mi'riners' Chapel is badly
injured.
It is believed now that the spires of
St. Philips' and St. Michael's will be
saved. ' Th damge to St. Paul's is
estimated at from eight thousand to
twelve thousand dollars.
Disasters are reported over the whole
of the upper part of Berkeley county.
Most of the houses at Bidgevic are

age is said to be little less than in Sum
merville.

drew's were badly damaged. St. An

wide. The road is carefully p~atroled.
