At Charleston, at 4 a. m. on the 18th.
there vas an earthquake shock unaccom-
panied by any great rumbling or detona-
ton, and was only noticed by a few per
sons. Possibly a light shock occurred on
the 18th but this is uncertain, as any
vibration caused by passing vehicles or
the pulling down of walls is apt to be re-
garded as an earthquake. There has not
been a shock in some days worth report
ing. The relief committee has issued over
a thousand forms Of applications for as
-istance in rebuilding or repairing houses.
Attention has been recently directed to
the character of the mortar used. con-
