It will lie seen from this utsm w hat lmsis Mr. Black builils, and upon what he cali-uiates for victory. In the nrst place, he claims as Democrats the entire vote cast forPattison and himself in 1S.K2, when the veriest tyro in State politics knows that thousands of Republicans emphasized their hostility to the ticket, by voting directly forPattison: and he also ignores the bitter factional fight go ing on in his ow n ranks.

Mr. Wolfe may probably attract a consid erable vote from source outside the Prohi bition ranks, while upon the other hand thousands of sincere Republican Prohibi tionists may be exwcted to refuse to desert their allegiance to their party in support of a selfish renegade.

They had spent it in thf? streets, among the ruins of fallen buildings, with the noise of cruslring walls and the roar of the swollen waters tilling their ears when they were free from the calls for help that came from the maimed victims and tlie cries of distressed women and children vain ly seeking their protection. To add to the horror of those- awful hours tire broke out and some twenty houses were consumed. The first sli.iek did mot of the damage. It was felt at 9..VI local tins-. In every house in town men and somen were thrown prone ujsin their faces. When they recover ed they rushed for the streets, which in a few seconds were tilled with a mob demor alized by tc-rnir. Hundreds gathered in groups to otler up prayers w hile on every si. le they sobbed out, "inyti.sl, save us!" "sl have mercy tim us, miserable sin ners:" Then came the next sh.sk and shrieks rent the air. fcailc-r heads thought of n-scuing the coplc imprisoned in the fal len houses. Kven somen armed with hatchets fought valiantly to rescue the im prisoned iiiifortunati-s, while the gnsms of the dying urged them on to renewed en .icavors. Iresenlly the flames of burning buildings lit up the scene and aided the rvs curcrs iu their work. A m INKIi city. The city is almost a complete wreck.

The men in tlie oflice, with j-iiap a simultaneous thuh of rwvl krticKi of tiie dMturhance of tlie Friday bt Sre, glanced hurriedly at each otlier and sprang to their feet with startled questions and answw, ' What is that T " 'Karh quake ! " Bad theu all was bewildemoit and dSifu-Hinu. A aiOHTT ClfiKISO. Then the long roll deepened and spread into an awful natr that seemed to prerade at once the troubled earth and the still air above and around. The tremor was now a rutlv, rapid quiver that ataUied the whole kiftly, strong walled building as though it were being shaken by tlie hand of an im measurable Ker, with intent to tear its joints asunder and scatter its stones and brick around, as a tree casts its over-riued fruit U-fore the breath f the gale. There was lsi iulermiwion in the vibration of the mighty subterranean engine. From the first to the last it was a ountiuuous jar, only ad ding force at every moment, and as it ap proached and reached the climax of its main testation it seemed for a few terrible seconds that no work of human hands could pioisibly survive the shock. Tlie floors were heaving tinder foot, the surrounding walls and par titions visibly swayed to and fro, the crash of falling masses of stone and brick aniLnior tar was heard overhead, and without tlie terrible roar tilled the ears and seemed to till tlie mind and heart, dazing iierception, bewildering thought, and for a few panting breaths or while you hold your breath in dreadful amicqwlioii of immediate and cruel death, you felt tliat life was already ast and waited lor tiie end as the victim with his head ou the block await the fall of the up lifted axe. the Bt:su ros the ktkkkts. Jt is" not given to many men to look in the fine of the destroyer and yet live, but it is little to say tliat the group of strong men alio shared tlie experience above faintly descrilied will carry with them the recollec tion of tiuit supreme moment to their dying day. None expected to escajx;. A sudden rush was simultaneously made to endeavor to attain throiicd air and dee to a place of safety, but liefore the d sir was reached all reeled together to the tottering wall and stop isl, feeling that hope was rain, that it was only a question of death w ithin the building or w ithout to be hurried by the sinking roof or crushed by the toppling walls. The up roar slow ly died away ill seeming' distance. As we dashed dowu the stairway and out into the street already on every side arose the shrieks, the cries of ain and fear, the prayers, waitings of terrified wonien ai d children, mingled with the hoarse shouts of excited men. Out in the streets the air was tilled to the height of the house with a whitish cloud of dry, Stirling dust from the lime and niortar and shattered masonry, which, falling iqioii the pavement and stone roadway, hail been reduced to powder. Through this cloud, dense as a fog, the gas- lights nickered climiy, sncMuing out nine light, so that you stumbled at every' step over the piles of brick or became entangled I Herca woman is supported half fainting in ! the arms of her husband, who vainly tries i to soothe her, while he carries her inui the open space at the street corner, where pres ent safety seems assured; there a woman lies on the iwvement with upturned face and outstretched limine and the crowd Jiasses her by feir the time, u.h! pausing to see whether she be alive or dead. THE rEAETUL ALARM OF F1KB. A sudden light flares through a window over l.sikiiig the street ; it becomes momen tarily brighter anil the cry of tire resounds from the nitiltitmle. A rush is made to ward the sst. A man is seen doubled up and helpless against the wall ; but at this moment somewhere out at sea, overhead, deep in the ground is heard again the low, ominous roll, which is already t.s well known to be mistaken. It grows louder and nearer, like tlie growl of a wild beast Hwift ly approaching his prey, and all is forgotten again in the frenzied rash for the ojien sjuu-e, where alone there is hope of security, faint though it be. The tall buildings on either hand blot out the skills and the stars and seem to overhang every fesit of ground be-twe-en them. Their shattered cornices and copings, the tojis of their frowning walls, seem piled from both sides to the centre of the street. It seems that atom h would now sc-ml the shattered masses left standing down tqioii the people lie-low, who look up to them and shrink together as the tremor of the nil-! hqiiake again passes under them and the mysterious reverlieratioiiB swell and roll aiong like some infernal drum-beat sum moning them to elie. It jaisses away and again is exjieTiwii-ed the blessed felling of deliverance from im)s-iidiiig calamity, w hich it may well Is? Iiclicved will provoke a mute hut earnest offering of mingled prayer and tliaiiksgiviiigfrom every heart in the throng. Again, far along the street and up from the alleys that lead into it ou either side, is heard that chorus of wailing and lamenta tion which, though it hail not ceased, was scarcely noticed a moment before. It is a dreadful sound the sound of helpli-ss.horror-stricken humanity .old and young.the strong and the feeble alike, where all are so fee ble, calling for he-lp from their fellow-crea-ttires ami raising their anguished Voices in js tiiion to heaven 6r mercy where no hu man aid could avail. It is not a scene to be .lescrits-d by any mortal tongue or pen ; it is not a stvnt- to be forgotten when the witness has shared all its dangers and felt all its agony. AMinsT THE CRASH OF SflLPISUS. The first shis k occurred at seven minutes of ten, as was indicated this morning by the public clocks, the hands on all of which had stopicd at that fatal hour.as though to mark 1 lie end of time for so many who had he-ard tlie precceiling hour pealed forth by St. Michael's chimes without a thought but of long and happy life. The second shock, which was hut a faint and crisp m ho of the first, was felt eight minutes later. As it passed -away the writer starte-d homeward, to find the scenes enacted on Uroud street, around the .Vnr and Ovurier nftiee reatcd at every step of the way. St. Michael's ste-e-ple towered high and white above the gloom seemingly uninjured. The station house, a massive brick building across the street, had apparently lost its resif which hail fallen around it. A little further on the roof of a rtion of the Hibernian Hall, a handsome building, in the Grecian style, had crashed to tlie ground, earn-ing down part of the massive granite pillars with it. All the way up Meeting street, which in respect of its general direction and imsirtane may be called the " Btoudway of Cliarleston," the roadway was piled with debris from the to of the w alls. In passing the Charleston Ho tel, which, to carry out tlie miarison alsive indicated, occupies tlie jsisition of Stewart's iTown store in Xew York, the third slin k was felt alsiut ten minute after the second and, of course, caused the greatest alarm in that ne-ighlsirlMMsi as else-where. At Mariou Square, correspoutliug exactly with Cnioii Suae, Xew York a great crowd I il collected, as even tlie edges of the w i.le sucys embraced ill it could not be reached by the nearest buildings in the event of their fall. From this crowd compused of men, women and children of both races, arose incessant calls and cries of lamenta tions, while over the motley half-dressed throng wxs shed the lurid light of tlie con flagration which had broken out just beyond the square inimeetiateiy after the first shock and had nearly enveloped several buildings in flames. In three other quarters of tlie town at tlie same time similar large fires were observed under full headway, and the awful significance of the earthquake may most fully Is- appreciated, perhaps, when it is said that with tliese tremendous fires blazing up all at one around them and threatening the city with total destruction, the iole whom you meet on the streets or saw gathered together in groups in the open plans evidently did not give tliem a thought Xo one watclied the ruddy Barnes or the Hilars of cloud rising high into the still night air. . All were too intent on listening with strained senses for the dreaded recur rence of that borriblcgniwl or groan of the power under tlie seas and under the laud to give thought to the ne-w terror, tliough it had threatened bis own home and many homes in the elisimed city. ACHAEXED CIRCLE OF SAFETY. Tls; crowds poured in from every direc tion to tlie square just dem-ribed, as though it-had been indeed a rliarnied circle and Uie depended cm passing within its grassy bounds. Street cars, carriages and other vehicles were ranged in line on the streets surrounding tlie square, wiiile the horses stood as though Muffling the ground in anx ious inquiry- Tlie colored Kople every where were I.hi.1 and um-easing in their dec lamations of alarm, in the singing of hymns and in fervent apieals for lieaj's men-y, in which appeals, nl knows many a proud heart who heard them arising in the night, and in tiie hour of His wondrous might, devoutly aud humbly ami sincerely joined. Danger brings all of us to the level of the lowliest. Arrived at his home, the writer found the same scents of distraction and wreck which marked nearly every other home in the city. All the houses in the neighls.rli.Nsl had stif-fe-reel seriously, ami streets, yards and gar d.iis were filh-d with the fallen chimneys aud fragnients of walls, while the w alls that were left standing were reft asunder in luany cases from top to bottom aud were tmdlv shattered in every instance. Women ami children, roused from sleep or interrupted in their evening pursuits by the sound of the ruin being effected above and around them, rushed nut into the streets and huddled to gether awaiting the end, whatever it might be. Invaliils were brought out on mattress es ami deiiosited on the roadway. Xo thought was given to treasures left Is-hind in the effort to save the jieeuliar treasure of life itself, suddenly become so previous in the eyes of all, the invalid woman and the ro bust men alike. Cntil long after midnight the streets were fiilesl with fugitives in sight of their homes. Through the long hours that followed few Were the eyes even of childhood that were closed iu sleep. Char leston was full of those who watclied for the morning, and never in any city in any land did the first gray shades that mark the ii- i prooch of dawn apjiear so beautiful and so j welcome to eyes as they appeared to the thousands of jieopie who hailed them this j morning from the midst of the countless ! wrecked homes and our thrice scourged hut still patie-nt. still brave, still hoieftil, still j Is-autil'nl city by the sea, stretchers, ou which the dead and wounded were plaiicl. !

The first sh.s k j was felt In re at !:4." last night and the see- otid in afterward. They were fearful. ! Building, swayed from side to side and the ! earth Msir and fell like the waves of the ! ocean. People ni-hcd madly from their i house-, into tin; streets, some sprung fr i:n windows ami were injured. Many of the m.ist sulisiantial buildings were shaken to their lotiiiilations and walls cracked anil sprung. Five minutes after the first sh.s-k the second came and ten mimitis later a third. Otlier shocks followed until 1:0 A. M., when the eighth shock was felt, and this one lasted for a minute and a hull'. At 4 o'clock this morning the ninth sh.s k came aud at ;..lo and lo .M . . the city was again made to tremble. Very little sleep Was had by any of the inhabitants of Columbia last night. The negroes thought the end of the world had iume and they held prayer nievt ings on the street corners. There were six teen distinct shocks up to 5 a. m. The rumbling of the earth w as Laid and horrify ing in the extreme. CliK-ks were top)cd, bells were rung and damage done to some buildings. priuciially by toppling chimneys. Two rooms in the tiovemor's niaiisiou were wrecki-d. There were numbers of cases of nervous prostration and doctors were in de mand to compose the frightened ieople. One lady was prematurely delivered by the shock. Two shocks were felt this morning, one ut hall at eigiit and another alsint an hour later. THE RICHMOND riSIC. Richmond, Septeinlsr 1. The feature of the earthquake here was the alarm that the prisoners were about to brink out of tlie s-iiitentcutary aud hu summoning f)f the inilhnry to drive them .back, Xo such ex citement has incurred simv the city was cva.ual.sl by the Coiifcdcr.ite army. The convicts were- terror-stricken and a fearful scene followed. Finally two prisoners in tlieir mad struggle succcedi-d in f.ir.-in;4 tiie prison d-Birs and rushed wildlyiihout.it is siippiised to liisT.ite tlieir fellow-prisoners. Only the night fon-e of guanls were on hand ut the time, and they were not able to eroie with the eigiit hundred maddened convicts who lore at their cell dors. Tiie two who sueeeeilcd in getting Isyond the walls were followed, but it required a large number of the guards to hold them. There was uo way of reaching theui till ut oner and the hoarse murmurs of the crowds outside made it iiiiwsibltt for anyone to go ill the luulst of the prisoners, who resembled the inmulcs of a madhouse. The fir-1 mili tary couiialiy to i-cacli the sevne was the Attick triiard, coliliscd of ncgns-s. They chamcd to be drilling at the time and tiie heating of their drums as they marched out se-rvesl only to increase the terror. Tlie large majority of the convicts were nugnatt and luul all the susTstition of their raev. Many of them imagined that the day of judgment hail come. Others tiiotlglit the ssiple of the city had risen to sweep them from the Cice of the earth, hut when iu siue way the worel (lasseei among theui that it was an earthquake the scene in their midst benrgars descriitioii. They were sism powerless and tlieir misery stit Hself in shrieks until by degrees they weree-aline-d. As they were- Is-ing qtticteiL however, the city was becoming more excited as rumors of a general Uprising of esmvicts we re spread in the town. The marching soldier made the matter worse!. Mei. women and child ren were in the streets, which were alive with the moving mass pouring towards the penitentiary. Many of the women were terror-stricken by the earthquake. It was not until long after midnight that order was restored. WHAT C'lXCIXXATl FELT. ClMl!fXATi, SepU-iulier 1. Comparison of cxiiericuces this morning shows that the earthquake effects in' this vicinity were se vere. A singular rireumstuni was the very general fueling of diKtitlc-ss. Xine js-rsolis out of ten imagined they were sie k and die! not know till this morning that the disturb ance was in mother earth. The largest building in the city, and one of the strong est the government building rocked vio lently with three distinct vibrations. The large clock was stopil and mirrors were broken. In the large six and seven-story flats in the city the vibrations were severe; dishes were thrown from cuplsjunls, articles fell from nails, while the chandeliers were agitated as if by a strong wind. . Probably twenty or thirty meetings of bulges and so cieties were broken up without a motion to adjourn. At the old armory building, on Court street, the plaster on the ceiling was broken. The most divided shis k was felt ill Cumminsville, in the northern part of the city. Here lights were put out and bottles broken in drug stores. Throughout the State the shock was gen eral and occurred at all points almost at the same instant. At Hamilton Isatnlers iu ho tels nui from tlicir rooms in fright aud walls Wire suid to sway one and a half inches. At Canton four shoe k were observed, the mo tion being from north to south. At Xew conierstown glassware rattled distinctly. At De-unison a meeting broke up in a panic. CewhiK-ton felt two shis-ks. 15 riTTSBl RU. Tlie telegraph os-njtom up in the fourth story of the Western Cuion building, at the comer of Wood street and Fifth avenue, were treated to a startling interruption just as the clock, which registered 'Eastern time" on tlie wall of the operating reaim, had got its hands round to 9-..VJ. Assistant Xight viiku vqierai-ir ji.ireuuiu was seated in circular swinging chair; and he was startled to find himself being rocked first this way and tln-n that. The operator who had charge of the Indianaaiiis wire was getting a message at tliat very moment, and the click ing instrument had spelled out the last letter of tlie word '"earthquake," when the table began to rock Imckward and forward. The other talilaa followed suit, and cold chills run up and down tlie orstars' bucks. Every face in tlie room gut very white, and wild eyes turned up to the ceiling and to wards the walls, as they were the most likely things to move next. The oscillation lasted alsiut M second. Some of the men felt like bolting headlong out of tiie building and others, with bland and childlike confidence, sought the Signal Service officer, two Wrs below. The hitter had not, strange to say, felt the earthquake at all. Fifty yanls away from the Western Cuion building another scare of large proportions was devehiied. In the sixth story of the rickety, ramshackle, old building at the cor ner ot Virgin alley and Wissl street, the compositors were "setting up" the iVif. The earthquake came along, and it seemed as if tiie conqswitors were about to make a sud den and totally unexpected trip to the cellar. The imisisiiig stones wobbled alsiut as if they were suffering from hysteria, the ty got pied, the foreman turned very -ale and there was a suilden and simultaneous desire born in the breast of every man present to rush fiir the disir. When the last printer had got into the street it was found that no one was hurt, and the men went back to tlicir cases. There was no end of a disturlHUice of af fairs in the Duquense Club, ou Sixth avenue. The four-story building in which the club is located has never been renowneel for its ex cess of stability, and after the earthquake of last night its escaie from collapse seemed wonderful. The munis on tlie second floor and the floors above api:red to have lieen visited by spirits, and very bail spirits ut that. The pictures hung iu every variation upon a right line, the funs and other mantel orna ments lay on the thsir, the buffets and side Is sin Is had not a bottle standing upright up on them. and, in short, everything that was movable h.wl taken a very decided move in a new direction. There were not many iiH-mls-rs of the club in the nswis at the time!, and the-y were more surprised than frightened. The audience at Harry Williams' Academy of Music were surpriaesl when the licst part of the programme hud lieen given to sere the sevue at the lnu k part of the stage suddenly gaie os-n in the middle. There was a mo ment of uneasiness w hich, had the shocks been plainly fe lt, might have grown into a nic. The stage cur-iiters forced the sec tions of the scenery together, and iiolssly dreamed that the aevide-nt was the work of a convulsion of nature. At the other play houses no one seemed to feci the distiirlr- ai HV. AT THE HOTKLS. At the hotels the- shoe k treated considera ble t-xcite-iiient. No damage was done, but i i. .... .1 . i u.... ,. i!.iw- 7. , V I ii iguieiie-u. At the lluquesiie, which is the tallest slid narrowest hotel building in town, a hi I low y motion was very notiet-able. A ntiinlsr of guests devalue light headed and ran to the office?, thinking the house was tottering pre-l-anitorv In falling down. Mr. IH Witt C. llillsby. of Mislia, who hud a fiHim on the third floor, suid : ''I was sit ting in my nsim when 1 noticed a pevttliar swaying motion. The rocking Yhairs Is-gan to ns k and the chandelier swung to and fro. 1 lieeame quite dizzy and run down to the oflii-e. My son, who looked from our room window alsmt the time of the shis k, said that the City Hall building seemed to t ns king." Charles C. Rtsrsu, of Xew York, who was also a guest ut the hotel, said : " I wus writing at a table w hen things began to ris k. The ink splashed over the top of the bottle, and the table shook as though it hud the uguc-. 1 thought the house wus coming down, and pit down stairs as quick as p sihle." At the Hotel Anderson there- was quite an excitement, liown in the ottii-e the shis k was not felt, but from the second floor up the building shook enough to send the guests dowu stairs in remarkably quick time. Chairs and tables rockcil and chandeliers swayed back ami forth, hut beyond the frightening of the guests no damage was done. At the Munouguhcla House and the Seventh Avenue Hotel the shis k created a gissl deal of stir. People ran down stairs from the top stories, and some of the more excitable got clear out into the streets be-fore they reuliwd that the house was still stand ing and the danger was over. STILL QUAKING At Several South Carolina Towns A Volcano That Vomits Hot, Blue Mud, Con m hi A, S. C Septemls-r 3. Advices from Summerville state that the town of Wattc-i-heiro, &j miles Aisumt, was severely shaken up by freqtie-iit earthquake shis ks yesterday. The damage was slight, hut the inhabitants ft is I in terror .to the country. Information conies from Colleton county, that the rumbling noises and gentle oscillations of the earth have not ceased and theluhahitaiits fi-ared renewed disasters. A iarty of colored mc-n who arrived at Sum merville yestenlay rt'isirted a genuine vol cano 15 miles distant. They devlare that it vomits hot blue mud to a heighth of 3 feet, which rushes down the hillside in Imiling torrents and tliat lurid flames Issue through crevices in the earth. They say a sulphur ous islor impregnates the air and a dirtiness comes over every one who breutlus it. SHAKEN UP AGAIN. Charleston, Columbia. Savannah and Affusta Suffer Another Night of Fear, Eeach Visited by Another Slight Shook. CHAUI.KSTON, oept. 4. lie. m. 1 Ins city was skakeu again to-night. It was ut '.K'.'A' o'clock. Though a person might supimse our citirens would become mvustonied to this sort of thing, it is evider.t they have not yet learned to like it. The shock was noth ing like as severe as it was last night. It more than met all requirements, however, and startles! the shukeii-np pes 'pic. .None but the wlutis apiir as vet to know how to take tlase visitations. Rut the blacks are nearly all affected alike by it. They liave only to suspect a renewed shak ing of things on which they tread, when they rush with a common impulse to the jwrks, and such shouts and plaintive pray ers as they ascend ore enough to break dowu unbelief. Xo damage is as yet rerted from the shaken city's ixipubu to-night, ltut the shock was by no means a merely local one. Telegrams are in already from Columbia, this State, and Suvunuuh and Augusta, (iu.. showing that they shook also Columbia at 9.27 with l i seconds' continuous vibrations. which cleared the buildings of o.vtiKinis; Savannah at S::JU, with sufficient severity to drive hundreds out of dismi for the night ; aud Augusta With scarcely ja-nvptihle tre mors. In Charleston this evening sh.s k lasted only five se-e-ouiU. But it was enough. Just when and where tliec phenomena will give place to the storms of wind we always ge-t at tins season ulong the roust, is a question of the liveliest interest to all citizens who ow n or oceupy bouses in the cities by the sea. Exploded In His Vest Pocket. Atlasta, August 31. This morning A. I'. Blue, who works in the East Tennessee Uuil roeul yard, struck his right thumb into his vest iss-ket, in which was a dynamite, cur triilge. The cartridge exphsled and ihjurcd his hand so badly that the thumb had to he amputated. Sir. Blue's shle was badly burn ed, and his clothing was blown to tatters on tlie right sitle. , Two of his ribs were broken. A Barn Struck oy Lightning. Reawwu, IV, August 30. The barn of Clutrles Reber, at Evansville, this county, was struck by lightning last evening and en tirely destroyed by fire, together with this year s crops. Loss, R,iKlO. Reuben H. men- sum, a Huckster, who had sought shelter hi the barnyard from the uncmscious fiir several hoars by tlie shock. Well at Chicaoo. III., August 31. A dispatch was received from the Mayor of Bclleplain, Iowa, which states tliat an artesian well four in e lies in diameter burst when the dentil of I feet had been reached iu boring, and instant ly a volume of water was fonvd into the air to the distance of several hundred feet. This gradually increaseel in size aud volume nntil a stream of water fully sixteen inches in di amcter was formed, and the upward force of .the stream is equal to the power of powder or dynamite. Tls? water in huge volumes is stuting high in tlie air, and the snpply 9. ems inexhaustible. Two gigantic rivers have Ivii fonueel by this pheiioineiial water burst which are running- through the town at the rate eif twelve miles an hour and e-ar-rying everything U-fore them. Houses and lives an.- threatened bv this vuliur freak of nut ure and the t-itizeim are apiwllcd ut their iuqiending dangrr. which at present they are siucrle-ss to overcome. Fin-ling it ini pissible to divert this damaging flood an at-te-nqt was made to insert Hi-in- h Isiiler iron tulies into the well, but these wcro instantly blown out and forced high into tin- uir. Finding this plan useless tht-lerrifneel pe-o.ie aticinptcil to fill up the ujs-rtun- through n Inch this terr'iie geyse r was spouting its deluge. Fifteen carloads of stone were eiiq- tied into the well, hut these we re fon-eil ti wunl us though proicllcd by the fonv of gi ant powder. Bags of sand were' then hastily const meted and cast into the well, but these, too, were- hurled into the air. The Chicago anil Xorthwestcrti Railroad was cullesl np-n for ussistiitic-e. und instantly sent a large gang of men to the rese-ue. The bridge gang of the county was also eulled upon, hut up to this evening no abatement in the flow of water was jierevptihle, and the rushing rivers form ed by it were washing the channel it liad made divsr uud wider, while the liasin formed 1st this imiuense volume of water was spreading over the low lands in the vicin ity. The Mayor of Belle-plain, in his last extremity, telegraphed Chioigo tor the best engineers that could besccun! to come immediately to the Kit aud use their skill and energy in rtteinpting to stop this (vril- ous condition of affairs. City F.nginccr Ar tingstall at oni-e startesl out to find an engin eer w ho would supply the-demand, and suc ceeded in inducing Engineer Morgan to un dertake the mission. Messrs Artingstall and Morgan ure. however, both of the opinion that but little if anything can lie done to stop the-flow of water, but that it may he pissible to direct the rivers into less ilanger ous diree tious and t ontine Them to their rlumncls. Mr. lorgun left fiir Bclleplain to-night, and if more assistan.-e is necessary Sir. Artingstall will send all that isiuvdisl. This is n-gurded as one of the most phenom enal freaks of nature which has yet Isvn known, and the tlimitcncd dangcrtothe peo ple and pro-rty of Bclleplain demand in stant and cucrgetic efforts to nstrain the ruinous deluge of water. A Bell Tinkling in the Sky. Norwich, Conn., August :. Kor several days the residents of My-tier were astonished to hear the faint tinkling of a ls-11 in the sky, and some of the most pious citizens, never having heard a miracle, and not know ing how it ought to sound, thought that it might be one. The mystery was solved a day or two ago, when a man. who oci-a-ioti-ally looks heavenward, saw a big w hite, or gray eagle, with a ls-11 alsmt its neck, souring above the hamlet. fs,nc of the village sportsmen, who were- curious to know what the eagle was doing with the hell, and how it got it, tried to sins it the bird, but they did not hit the eagle, which sailed slowly off to the north.
