..Pr,vate Enterprise -" and the Mails.

We notice that certain parties and newspapers
In the Northern cities are in favor of giving up the
carriage of the mails to private enterprise They say
that private enterprise has brought letters and papers
from New Orleans to New York, and New York to
New Orleans in advance of the United States Mails
and that the private enterprise work cheaper
than the department in carrying letters and papers be-
tween the great cities, &C.

portions of tissue The great cities are not the only
producers consumers. They derive their impor-
lance from being the centres,-the outlets or

up by the manufacturer Stop the local circulation
the local mas-those channels of communication which
private, speculative enterprise will not keep open be-
to keep them open will not pay and the disastrous
effects will be experienced by those centres of trade
which have grown rich and naughty because of the
riches drawn from the country.
Now, so far as getting the news is concerned, we
might get the greater part of it through private en-
terprse, if had U. S. MAIL but how to distribute
our papers throughout the counties Eastern Carolina

Private enterprise" would be willing enough tc
take all the profitable business of the Department but

weekly newspaper that brings pleasure and information
to the quiet home of the farmer planter might go fo

The EarthouaIxe.

The slight shock of earthquake noticed in pa
per of yesterday, was distinctly marked by good many
citizens residing in different parts of town. 1t was felt
more distinctly in the upper stories of houses than
the ground floor One OF the propretOrs and some per-
sons who happened to be engaged in the Journal office
Thursday evening" felt slight shocks with the Earring
of windows The same on the lot where we live. Even
the servants noticed it, but did not know exactly what
to make of it.
The Charleston Courier of yesterday morning says,
that at o'clock Thursday evening, Charleston ex-
perenced earthquake of violence than any tet
or recorded for fifty years The shock seems to have
been most distinctly felt along the line of Broad street
and on either SIDE The duration Of the greatest force
of the motion or distur bance stated by various OBJ
servers at 6, or 10 seconds and whole time of the
motion, or oscillations, at 20 to 25 seconds.
At the Post Ofice-the Cou Office and the Bank Of
Charleston the conclusion sensby and even violent
ly exhibited throughout the buildings In the post Office
papers, letters etc. in the pgeonhoes were disarranged
In the second story of the Courier office there was such
a conclusion as for some time to prevent all work
The shock was felt at Atlanta, Augusta and Macon
The Columbia South CGroLlnlan mentions the fact OF
the shock having been felt at Columbia, but SO slightly
as to do no damage. The time and duration were the
same as those stated by the Courier.
