An EARTHQUAKE. - Two very distinct
shocks Of earthquake occurred here last
evening. The first was a double shock |
with continuous vibration between the
more distinct quakeS - thought to have
lasted about nine seconds. 1t occurred at
eleven minutes past 9 o'clock, Magnolia
standard time. The second shock occurred
ten minutes later, at twenty-one minutes
past 8. The more sensitive or imaginative
report three or four shocks. But of two
there is no question. Many persons rushed
cut of doors into the street, the better to
feel the land shake, and await the result of
other shocks that might occur. Doors,
windows and lamps osci!lated and vibrated {
to an extent never before experienced from
the same cause here. In fact we believe but :
one earthquake was ever previously reported {
in Carson; that occurred in 80 or 90. We
are informed that telegraphic dispatch re- !;
ported two shocks in Gold Hill-the operator Il
at that Office saying the building he was in :
oscillated like cradle. No damage being :
done here, the principal effect was to give the
citizens a new sensation and make people
lively and social.

have been in this place seven days, and
axe this opportunity of writing you few
ines. No doubt you hear a great talk about 81

'opulous city is growing up. The buildings
row up like mushrooms, and the fact of the
ompary appearing mora willing to lease OF
han to sell lots, coupled with the assertion
t Mr.. Croker, is sufficient evidence to con- -
ince me that this will be the main depot for
lis whole section of country. l suppose
on have heard that Mr.. Lewis is about II
