land service has similarly increased lie
business, and we now send from No. 1876

increase amounts to more than the bust.

cHARLEsToN's SHOCK,
Some New Facts concerning the Earthquake
Narrated by Captain Dawson,

Nav YoRE, Oct, 2.-Captain F, W. Daw
son, the editor Of the Charleston NslUs and
Courier, gives some details concerning the
late earthquake which had not been made
public, Captain Dawson, on the evening
OF the first terrible shock, went home
early, aud, missing his nieht key, went
around his house and entered by q rear
entrance, He had Just reached bis room
when the shock came, and the fact that he
had been unable to go In by his front door
probably saved his lie, for the front Of
his house was one mass otruIns, Captain
Dawson said;
The frat unusual thing surprising TO
me was the long rumble and gradually
Increasing roar Of which you have heard
80 much. Then came the swaying back
and forth, the rotary motion, and the
heaYing aa OF ship.in heavy sea. To
give you some notion Of the noise which
accompanied the earthquake and about
which little has been said, although 1t was
one Of the most potent factors in creating
uncomfortable terror among the people, |
may say that never knew that about
twenty tons OF brick from the front OF my
house had fallen from forty to fifty feet,
demOllshtug everything in Its way,
Many OF US have been through scores Of
battles, have seen pretty bad storms al
sea, and yet nothing can equal the terror
producing effect Of that horrible roar
which precedes an earthquake, At the
NeWS and Courier office the parapet 90
feet above the sidewalk Is composed, Of
nearly 100 tons Of granite block, one Of
which required 10 men to turn over.
These were all brought down to the side
walk In the first shock, and yet no one iu
the building heard them fall.
Captain Dawson says he has on the lrst
floor OF his house a tank holding 1000 gal.
Ions Of water. The tank was uninjured,
but the shaking was so violent that all oil

told the fatally wounding of one man. and
the injuring Of two or three other mep

may be given that these unfortunate cir
